    When the comparison is implicit (best for you), you omit 'que' and just say 'melhor'.

  • Qual serviço de entrega é melhor para mim?

    In informal speech 'pra' is natural, but mixing 'para' and 'pra' in the same sentence sounds inconsistent.

  • Qual serviço de entrega é melhor pra eu?

    After a preposition you must use the pronoun 'mim', not the subject pronoun 'eu'.

Cultural Tip

In Brazil, the delivery market is dominated by iFood, Uber Eats, Rappi, and 99Food. When speaking with strangers or in a professional email, replace the informal 'pra' with the full preposition 'para' (e.g., 'para mim'). Also, note that regional slang can affect the name of the service – some people call it 'delivery' while others say 'app de entrega'.
