With a heart full of gratitude, I have some news to share. After nine beautiful years in the Netherlands, my family and I are embarking on a new chapter and moving back to Brazil. This means that, soon, ELO will be closing its doors.
ELO was born from a dream to change how we experience food. After years in professional kitchens, I knew cooking didn’t have to be defined by stress and waste. I believed that at its core, cooking is an act of love.
Looking back, we achieved that mission. Together, we brought the vibrant flavors of Brazil to Amsterdam, but more importantly, we created a community.
The name “ELO” means “link” or “bond” in Portuguese. My greatest hope is that you remember us not just for the food, but for that feeling of connection. Food is memory, it’s history, it’s the way we connect to the land and to each other.
Our deepest thanks to our incredible customers who filled the room with laughter, to our trusted suppliers who believed in our vision, and to the friends who became family: Thank you.
We have a few weeks left! We would love to see you one last time. Come share a meal, raise a glass, and celebrate the beautiful bond we built together.
📍 Last Service: 16th April, 2026.
Let’s make these last weeks unforgettable.
Com amor,
Renata
