Went for a coffee at this place and was surprised of how nice the staff is... showed me the fruit of the traditional African tree baobab, here they serve a juice with watermelon. I just had a coffee, but I'm very curious to try this...african cuisine restaurant very soon!More

The place is not full of luxury or fancy things - it looks familiar, comfortable and intimist. Which makes the food even more tasty! The dishes are well served, and it pleases even the less adventurers palates. There are exotic options, and who doesn't want...to dare too much will find options as well.More

I like the taste and prices. There is a small place, the decoration is fine. I truly recommend the drink with ginger.

Have been to this restaurant many times and get never tired of it. The food is always very delicious. Definitely a place to be visited when in Sao Paulo. Typical African food. Worth trying

Fantastic real African taste. I loved it. Sure I will be back as so many varieties of dishes. Une bonne occasion pour aussi parler français avec Mélanie. Super hospitalisé.

Food - Well made, tastes like a home cooked meal. Some flavours are similar to what you would taste in the state of Bahia and some are completely different from anything in Brazil, but all very good and tasty. The dishes are large and you...leave quite satisfied. However, the amount of protein is small. Service - Extremely friendly and nice. The waiters were attentive and helpful. Place - Simple and clean. When we went, they were renovating it. I read people here complaining about the heat, but now there's air conditioning. Place is small, so arrive early or expect lines. Location - Not very safe at night, so I suggest going during the day. Price - Very low prices, it's difficult to find the same amount and quality of food for the same prices as here.More

I had read about Biyou'z before going so my expectations were high. Yet, they have surpassed my expectations! I was really impressed with the food. It's absolutely delicious. The service is friendly and prompt, the whole atmosphere is extremely pleasant. Above all, it offers great...value for money. Certainly a great place for a Sunday lunch.More

I've never heard of Byou'Z restaurant before, it came to me through a research for a place to have lunch w/ friends in the weekend, appearing in "SP Honesta" website as a good cost benefit place. Went there on a Sunday w/ a couple of...girl friends to try something new...never had african food before, even in SP where you can find almost all the cuisines and thousands of options of all kinds. Arriving there, we meet a restaurant that could be mistaken by a very simple small bar, all the tables full, half brazilians and half of what they seemed to be, africans from all origins (which I've confirmed later, this place was opened so the ones living/working in SP could have a meal from home). Service was good, waiter was very nice and made everything to make us feel comfortable. Choosing among the variaty of dishes wasn't easy, specially when you don't know what some items are, zero reference! So we've decided to pick a different dish each so we could taste many things. I've chosen Fumbua, which was composed of chopped fried chicken drumsticks, a paste made of toasted peanut paste (attention: nothing like peanut butter!) seasoned w/ dried shrimp, "dendê" (palm tree oil) and fumbua, an african vegetable (leaves), and switched the manioc to Fufu, which is kinda like soft polenta but no seasoning at all. My friend had Ndole, a dish with chopped beaf, a paste made of toasted peanut paste seasoned w/ Boldo leaves (just like the tea) and she switched the chopped fried bananas for Fufu (we all wanted to try it). My other friend had Kitoor, pieces of fried chicken, roasted peanut paste seasoned w/ collard green, and switched the Fufu for fried banana. From all we've tried, I specially liked the toasted peanut paste mixed w/ Boldo leaves, its flavour was amazing! I could have had a full plate of it, mixed w/ rice! The only thing I didn't really enjoy was the Fufu, because it didn't taste like nothing. So if you go there, switch it to bananas or rice. And I also think the amount of meat per dishe is very small, like 2-3 small pieces, so you end up having a whole bunch of carbohidrates. Anyway, it was well worth the experience and the plates were cheap, all less than R$20 ($7 euros or $11-12 dollars). I would definitely go back there, but not so soon.More
