What Travellers Say
Reviews Summary
Diners praise New Shin-la kwan for its authentic Korean barbecue and generous portions, often highlighting the delicious side dishes. While the food is frequently described as excellent and worth the price, some reviews mention inconsistent service and a less-than-ideal atmosphere. However, many find it to be the best Korean food they've had outside of Korea.
"The meat and the sides are awesome, service is pretty fast! We were in a group of 5 so we ordered 2 bbq (each serves 2 people) and an extra portion of rice, but in the end we fell like we could still eat more. It's kinda pricy but worth the visit!"

"Super delicious Korean food here in São Paulo. The meat was excellent (as expected being here in Brazil) but also the side dishes served with the meat were so incredibly good. I have never been to Korea but I am a huge fan of the cuisine! I have tried many famous Korean BBQ places in cities like Miami, New York, Dallas and this was by far the best I have had. A lot of the negative comments you see were about pricing but we dined for 2 people and a child and the food was plentiful and pricing in my opinion very fair for what you get."

A Local's Guide to the Best Restaurants in São Paulo
Unbeknownst to most even in Brazil, São Paulo has a large and growing Korean population, centered in the neighborhood of Bom Retiro in the city’s center. Over time, Korean immigrants and their Brazilian children have expanded into other parts of the city, especially Acclimação, but Bom Retiro has remained the center of Korean life in here. Traditionally one of São Paulo’s main Jewish neighborhoods and a center of textile production, most Jewish Paulistanos have long since moved out of the city center, favoring newer neighborhoods like Jardins and Higienopolis.
7 restaurantes coreanos indispensáveis para conhecer em São Paulo
Esse restaurante tem como foco o churrasco coreano, que é preparado à mesa pelo próprio cliente. A estrela do cardápio é o braseiro a carvão, em que é colocada uma chapa de ferro fundido, que dá um caramelizado especial nas proteínas que são grelhadas ali. Entre as sugestões para levar a brasa estão o samgyeopsal sogum-gui, fatias de pancetta com shimeji, cebola e molho de gergelim temperado, que acompanha duas porções de arroz, seis banchan e salada.

O New Shin La Kwan é especialista em churrasco coreano e é comandado pela matriarca da família. É uma explosão de sabores, uma experiência completa. Uma ida ao restaurante é um programa delicioso de todas as formas, tanto pela comida quanto pela oportunidade de ter um tipo de refeição diferente da que estamos acostumados – e eu tenho uma preferência por restaurantes que são fora “hype” de São Paulo.
