Best pizza I've ever eaten. The Castelões pizza with the in-house cured meat was alone worth the flight from the U.S. The crust really sealed the deal: it's absolutely perfect and the bottom takes on a buttery texture from the pork fat seeping into it. You'll also have your pizza cut for you with a fork and knife by the waiter every time you're ready for your next slice. It's truly impeccable service from a storied establishment. Note that as of January 2022 Castelões Cantina does indeed accept credit card. Also, like much of SP, the Bras neighborhood looks much worse than it actually is at night.

The best pizza dough I have ever eaten. It's rustic, crispy and slightly thicker than usual. The "castelões" topping is awsome (mozzarella cheese, tomato sauce and cured pepperoni). This restaurant is a São Paulo landmark - it's been there since 1924.

Local pitoresco!!!! Numa região sem qualquer apelo turístico/gastronômico encontramos um dos restaurantes mais antigos - e ainda em funcionamento no mesmo local. Tudo muito simples, prateleiras empoeiradas, cardápio enxuto, um único garçom para atender todas as mesas, preço de pizzaria chique, as vezes não tem vinhos (caso do dia da nossa visita) mas mesmo assim sempre cheio!!! O segredo é a pizza Castelões cuja massa é ótima o molho de tomate na medida certa e a famosa linguiça feita na casa!!!..

O restaurante parece um portal para outra época.. Objetos obsoletos não foram colocados como decoração, eles parecem ter parado de funcionar e ali ficaram. É muito interessante. Tudo funciona meio que como antigamente, a espera para jantar é organizado pelos próprios clientes pela ordem de chegada, espera-se para comer, o cardápio é físico (nem pense em QR code) e enxuto e a pizza é simplesmente deliciosa. Bordas largas de uma massa com sabor diferenciado, molho de tomate perceptível, ingredientes de extrema qualidade que se unem num sabor equilibrado e com a quantidade de recheio na medida. Uma das melhores pizzas que já comi.
