🇧🇷 Barbecue | Quintal deBetti
🥩 Quintal de Betti: When Vibe Overshadows Flavor in São Paulo’s Grill Scene Walking into Quintal de Betti feels like crashing a lively backyard BBQ—if the BBQ had zero seasoning. 🌿 The entrance is a butcher shop, the patio screams "rustic farmhouse vibes, and servers hype up the experience like it’s the best steak you’ll ever eat. Spoiler alert: it’s... not. 🌟 The Only Things Worth Eating (Yes, Really) Crispy French Fries: Shockingly good! 🍟 Thick-cut, double-fried, and seasoned with just the right amount of salt. Dip them in the house-made chimichurri (the only sauce with flavor) and thank us later. Atmosphere Points: To be fair, the energy is contagious. 🎶 Live samba music, servers dancing between tables, and fairy lights strung across the patio—great for groups that want to party, not ponder flavor. 🚩 The Meat: A Monotonous Marathon of Mediocrity All-Too-Similar Steaks: Whether it’s picanha, filet, or ribeye, every slice tastes identical. 🥩 Blame the generic salt-and-pepper seasoning (if that), or maybe the grill master needs a vacation. The texture is okay (not tough, not melt-in-your-mouth), but flavor? Non-existent. Sad Side of Veggies: Grilled zucchini and peppers arrive charred but completely unseasoned. 🌶️ It’s like they forgot the oil, salt, anything. Good luck choking them down without the fries. 📝 Honest Talk: Who Should Visit (and Why) Go if… You’re here for the party, not the protein. The lively atmosphere is perfect for birthdays or loud gatherings. You’re a fries connoisseur (seriously, they’re that good). Skip if… You’re a steak snob (run far, far away). You expect flavor from your grilled veggies (bring your own salt shaker). 💡 Pro Tips to Salvage Your Visit Order Strategy: Skip the pricy steaks; opt for the "fries + beer" combo and call it a day. Bring Your Own Sauce: Okay, don’t actually bring sauce, but ask for extra chimichurri—it’s the only condiment with kick. Manage Expectations: Come for the vibe, not the food. Think of it as a bar with decent fries, not a steakhouse. Quintal de Betti is a prime example of "all style, no substance". The servers will make you feel like family, the patio is Instagrammable, and the fries are solid—but the meat? It’s the kind of food that makes you miss your own backyard grill. 🤷♀️ #BrazilianBBQ #SaoPauloGrills #StyleOverSubstance #FriesOverSteak #HonestFoodReview
