I'll start off with the disclaimer that I'm not an Irish Pub kind of guy. But I came here last…read morenight with colleagues and had an enjoyable time. We started in the downstairs area, which has a small but sufficient bar, and then moved upstairs, where there was a live band performing a mix of Brazilian and American songs. The bar service was about average speed, as far as pubs go. I'd recommend upgrading your caipirinha to Nega Fulô from their house standard. There was a R$15 charge to get in, which is super reasonable with htel live band--actually, ridiculously cheap by American standards, given the current exchange rate that makes it $3.75 for entrance. Word to the wise: The bathrooms are in a sub-upstairs area from the main upstairs area (if you're on the second floor, you'll see what I mean). Surprisingly clean for an Irish pub. They also use a card system where, upon entry, they give you a card to which you'll charge all your food and drinks, and then pay at booths on the way out. Even though it was a bit crowded, the place had a very friendly environment. People weren't pushing you out of the way or anything like that, which was refreshing. On the whole, we had a good time and enjoyed the band.

This resto-bar is ideally located in Vila Madalena, and while there's a number of similar-looking places to choose from, Quitandinha won't steer you wrong. The sausage we got came with a side of sliced bread and a bowl of chopped veggie vinaigrette. The bottles of Original beer came expertly cold and 3 turned into 6. If you're looking for a crowd, this is a great spot to hang out and people watch. Lucky guests can snag an outdoor table, and those who don't either hang out on the sidewalk or grab a table indoors.

Although it was still fairly empty, my party was quickly ushered to the upstairs level, where we were seated in a dark corner directly beneath a speaker blaring loud, generic music from a low ceiling. On the TV screens, nothing but the cable TV menu screen the whole time we were there. After figuring out the confusing menu and ordering one of the specials, I was told they didn't have the beer I wanted (having a decent beer selection on the menu is no use if they don't have what you want). When my order finally came, the plate was so hot that it gradually proceeded to turn my ribeye steak into a charred hockey puck. Very disappointing!
