With an architectural pedigree that includes an exterior penned by Daniel Libeskind, Attimo is a visual and culinary dining institution that manages to live up to the hype. Visitors arrive to a grand marble-clad façade trimmed in tropical landscaping that’s walking distance to the city’s Ibirapuera Park. A cubist entrance leads past a glassed-in bar with marble flooring and into a more formal main dining room of herringbone wood floors, creamy leather-accented seating and small terrace overlooking a water garden.
