Located on a regular residential street a bit out of the centro, the Burger Bistrô is not your…read moretypical Belo Horizonte restaurant. It is clean, spacious, and comfortable. The design is retro with some booths, Marilyn Monroe photos on the walls, old coke bottles, etcetera. The menu is American inspired with mostly burgers on offer. There are onion rings and fries as well (the burgers do not come with fries standard). For desert there are icecream milkshakes in a range of flavors and an cookie-icecream sandwich. I was not impressed with the French fries. Very bland, no crispiness. Worse than McDonalds. My black burger (R$25) was decent size and well prepared, but it was very sweet. Some greens or a slice of tomato would have been nice. My table partners were happier with their burgers than I was with mine. Sadly, the service was extreeemely slow - at least on the (busy) Saturday evening that we visited. It took forever to place an order and even longer for the food to be served.

Pretty good modern craft beer pub and restaurant. Beers on tap are great; but when we were there…read moreseveral of their house beers were unavailable. Crowd is mostly young 20s and 30s. Food is creative and original and tasty. We had some massive ribs, and alcatra with canastra (our "ao ponto" request didn't lead to a medium rare). There can be a pretty long wait to get in on busier days of the week. It's not cheap.

We saw this place as we were walking through Savassi and didn't realize it was only 4 months old…read more Because we are fans of Wäls petroleum we knew we had to try out their gastronomy and it didn't disappoint. First off I started with a flight called "nice to meet you", a lineup of their lighter beers, the witte, hop corn (which they are out of and substituted the verano - a pale ale), citra - a session IPA, and niobium- a double IPA. I'm not a fan of IPAs, but the witte was really smooth. I had the quintessential MG plate of toasted pão de queijo bruschetta with carne seca, a light creamy cheese and a touch of lemon zest. It was delicious and quite filling. The burger collaboration with duke n' duke was one of the BEST burgers I've had (and we've tasted so many Brazilian burgers, move aside Madero, here's the new champion!) Even if you are not usually a burger fan, this delicious speciality burger on its rustic bread bum, topped with special sauce, bacon and caramelized onions is absolutely scrumptious! Another not-to-miss item is the collaboration of Wäls and Goose Island, for an amazing Alambique County black tripel, a spinoff of Goose's bourbon county (one of my favorite beers). This one is a little lighter in color, if you're afraid of dark beers but full of flavor. We even bought the crystal glass it gets served in. If you are a fan of Wäls petroleum and want to try something different, this is the beer for you. Although the prices are a little expensive here, it's definitely worth every reais. Very impressed with this place, great ambiance, friendly staff, beautiful space and exceptional food and beer.

Super solid burger here. Decent fries. Outstanding milkshake. Only bad thing I can say is…read moreservice was a bit slow and I requested a side of bbq sauce and out comes this tiny little bowl with maybe a tablespoons worth of something similar to but not quite bbq sauce for which I was charged 5 reais.
