Hi, I'm Argentinian and celiac. I recommend this place and its food to everyone in the community. It's very difficult to find gluten-free food without cross-contamination in Rio de Janeiro, and Sandubem was a real relief. We ordered some burgers for delivery, which were delicious, filling, and reasonably priced.

I was excited to try this place as it was gluten free and I am celiac, as well as it had good reviews. First we went and they said they were not serving people but only take out or delivery. So we said we wanted to put in an order for takeout. They said they would not take our order unless we downloaded the delivery app. We tried but because we don't have a Brazilian phone number we couldn't use the app. So they said we couldn't order. Thankfully one of the delivery boys was kind enough to let us use his phone and ask the owner to make an exception. The woman taking the order was extremely rude. Actually seemed angry and was not kind at all. The pizza itself was okay. I have had many gluten-free pizzas around the world and this was not a pizza. This was more like a flat wrap with different types of toppings. ⁰ there was no crispness to it, It folded, like a wrap. There was almost no cheese on it. There was no sauce on it and in fact they gave us ketchup, which I thought was strange at first , but now after having eaten it I understand why. Because without the ketchup there is very little taste. I don't live in Rio, so I will never go back. Even if I lived in Rio, I would not go back.

I ordered a coffee and a honey bread. They were great. Usually gluten and lactose free products don't taste very good. That didn't apply to what I tried there. I'll try other items next time. The facilities are very stylish, pleasant and comfortable. The service is perfect.

Regarding the products, there are many options for celiacs and people with other types of dietary restrictions, but regarding the service, it leaves something to be desired, as they tried to charge me a higher price, for some items, than what was on the menu.

It's an excellent option for those who like tapioca or for those who want to have a gluten-free snack. I highlight the pink tapioca hydrated in beetroot water. Be careful with the pastes, as they may have strong seasoning, typical of the northeast. There could be green tapioca on the menu... Try it!
