I'm celiac and since I discovered Pra Além de Bom, I've been happier. I love the tarts, the strawberry, apple and pear ones are my favorites, I order them every week. I recently tried the lemon cake, it's perfect, soft, and moistens Dinho just right, perfect!!!! I loved that they're selling slices so we can try the flavors of the cakes before ordering the whole one. The honey and spice cake is also perfect. I didn't like the topping of the carrot cake very much, but the dough itself is delicious too. I highly recommend it, quality ingredients, tasty food and best of all, it's safe for celiacs.

Daniel Ganaha

Wonderful sweets! It doesn't even seem like they're gluten-free and dairy-free.

Claudio Carvalho

One of the best cafés in São Paulo. mainly because its sweet and savory options are gluten-free, lactose-free, sugar-free and very tasty. It's worth a try!

They advertise everywhere as GLUTEN FREE, but in reality they only use wheat flour. A restaurant of this size and price cannot use this advertising if there is a risk of cross-contamination with gluten! It is too expensive and hyped to have no guarantee of contamination safety. I am sure that the nutrition team will understand this criticism very well and how essential it is for the marketing team to be in tune with this since this also concerns safety. IT IS NOT CASA RAW VEGAN GLUTEN FREE. IT IS CASA RAW VEGAN WITHOUT WHEAT FLOUR. Gluten is a molecule and it is completely nonsensical to advertise it this way and not be. It would be like writing "no shrimp" and having "only the risk of a shrimp broth". People with allergies and celiac disease RUN AWAY. Anyway... it is nonsensical that this is part of the main advertising.

Terrible service. I gave up and left. I went there last Monday, June 30th, with my boyfriend, and honestly, it was the last straw. I always went to the restaurant because of the gluten-free options, but the service, which was already bad, keeps getting worse. The waitresses are always unfriendly, without a smile on their faces, with an unfriendly expression, as if they were doing me a favor by serving me. In addition, their slovenliness in their appearance draws attention: messy hair, unkempt clothes, an expression of someone who seems to not want to be there. This time, I wasn't even served. I went in with my umbrella (dry, by the way, since it was just drizzling), stood in front of the counter and the waitress, a short girl, who I've seen working there for a long time, just looked me up and down, paying more attention to the umbrella than to me. She didn't even say "good afternoon", didn't ask if I needed help, absolutely nothing. I felt so bad about that cold reception and those dirty looks that I gave up on eating anything and left. And the most unbelievable thing: she saw us leaving and didn't even ask if there was a problem or if I needed anything. It's sad, because it was the only place in Santos where I could find some gluten-free options, but I'm not going to spend my money in a place where I'm not treated well. On top of everything, the waitresses don't even have badges or identification, which makes communication and direct feedback even more difficult. I work in employee training and development and I think it's unacceptable for a company to allow this type of service to happen. Either the company provides adequate training for these waitresses or, if there's no improvement, the right thing to do would be to replace them. Customer service is the calling card of any business and, in this case, it's terrible. Unfortunately, as long as these people remain in the service, my boyfriend and I won't be going back. Never again.

Delicious pizza! There are no tables in the restaurant, it's only delivery, the waiters aren't very charismatic lol but the pizza is extremely good! For celiacs who miss pizza, it's worth it! Crispy dough, I liked it!

Rodrigo Grassi

The place is lovely. There are a variety of delicious options for those with gluten and lactose restrictions. We bought several products from the shop, including French bread and frozen cheese bread. At the café in the outdoor area, we tried the grilled bread and the cheese bread, which didn't even taste like it didn't have cheese. I highly recommend it. Just be prepared to pay, because everything is salty.

I bought a gluten-free, vegan, and sugar-free cake for my 2-year-old daughter's birthday and was very disappointed. The finishing was poorly done, without the care expected for a celebration cake. In addition, the texture was extremely floury, with a sandy sensation in my mouth. It felt like I was eating dirt — which usually happens when there is too much rice flour in gluten-free preparations. For a 1.5 kg cake that cost almost R$500, I expected much more. Unfortunately, I do not recommend it.

I'm not yet very used to the gluten-free world, but I missed the flavor in the dishes and I found the price a little higher than expected. Still, it's a good option for those who need to follow a gluten-free diet.

Emanuelle Nascimento

Everything is made with care and with selected ingredients, gluten-free, dairy-free, all organic and healthy, and best of all, very delicious! The best option for those with dietary restrictions
