The story
Nelita serves modern cuisine at Rua Ferreira De Araújo, 330, in São Paulo, and appears in the Michelin Guide as Recommended for 2026.
Chef Tássia Magalhães runs an open kitchen staffed entirely by women, so guests can watch the cooks at work. Her Italian heritage meets local ingredients and memories of Guaratinguetá, where she grew up. Pasta carries real weight on the menu, with goat agnolotti, confit lemon and black garlic, or pappardelle with octopus and guanciale.
The tasting menu runs to 11 courses (R$690) or five (R$390) and needs a reservation. A fixed menu is kept for last-minute visits. Danyel Steinle selects the wine list. The We're Smart Green Guide gave Nelita 1 Radish in 2026.
