Terraço Itália

Terraço Itália is a renowned Italian restaurant located on the 41st floor of the Edifício Itália in São Paulo, Brazil. The Edifício Itália is the second-tallest building in São Paulo and the thirteenth-tallest in Brazil, and the restaurant's elevated position offers sweeping panoramic views of the city in all directions, making it one of São Paulo's principal tourist attractions. The restaurant specializes in Italian cuisine and has become a symbol of fine dining in the city. The project was led by Italian immigrant Evaristo Comolatti, who moved to São Paulo in 1948 and eventually founded Grupo Comolatti. The restaurant began operating on September 29, 1967. Over the decades, it has hosted numerous notable personalities, including Queen Elizabeth II and Prince Philip in 1968. The establishment is currently managed by Sérgio Comolatti and has undergone renovations, with a new interior design by decorator Jorge Elias. In October 2015, a fire in the main dining room caused damage and loss of furniture; there were no injuries, but the restaurant remained closed for a few days. In November 2016, two parachutists bypassed security at Terraço Itália and jumped from the top of the building. Despite these incidents, Terraço Itália remains an active and iconic dining destination in São Paulo, operating multiple spaces including a bar, the Sala Nobre, the Sala São Paulo with breathtaking views, and the Sala Panorama with live music.
