Fast food raiz? Já foi! Mas tem clássico que se reinventa e segue firme na história da cidade. O Xodó atravessou gerações servindo fast food e agora, além de ser fast, ele é food de verdade... comida de verdade, com a cara de Minas e de BH, a Cidade Criativa da Gastronomia. Passei lá e provei um hambúrguer de linguiça no pão de sal, com queijo canastra, e ó… surpreendente! Já experimentou? Me con...

Reviews Summary

Xodó offers a traditional fast-food experience with some standout items like their milkshakes, often praised as the best in BH. While many appreciate its local charm and convenient location, some find the quality to be average for the price, with occasional issues in order accuracy or taste preferences not meeting expectations.

"A great place to take picky eater kids. My picky eater food of choice there when I was little was the chicken salad sandwich (shredded chicken with mayo).

If you're looking to experience the city from a local's point of view, eating at this place is a must. It's a local treasure located right across from a park where locals love to just wander around and chill with friends and family and enjoy good weather, so you can hit two locally beloved spots in one go. :)

Xodó is a family place, but they don't have any play areas like at a bigger McDonald's or whatever. However, the aforementioned park across the street was highly entertaining when I would visit with my mom after we ate when I was little.

It's a wildly popular restaurant with the locals, so seating may be hard to find depending on the day and time. Instead of waiting around for a table if the place is too full, I suggest taking your food over to the park and people watch or even have a mini picnic."

"School cafeteria quality cheeseburger! I could have let the quality pass if it weren't for the size and price of the soda, a water cup size 300ml for R$6. Combo small fries, drink and cheeseburger r$23.90. I think it's less than Burger King or McDonald's but I don't really know. The only good thing is its location right off Praça das Liberdades."

Steve Blanton

"Burger quality got a little bit worse over years and foreign fast food chains. Still recommend to visit for a local experience.
Better get some double burgers as they put more effort in them!"

Restaurants in Belo Horizonte

A snack bar located right next to the Cultural Circuit Praça da Liberdade with more than 50 years of tradition, Xodó holds a place in many locals' hearts. The elaborate sandwiches and hamburgers are the main draws here. Try the x-gourmet, a mighty sandwich with prime steak, bacon, cheese, salad, mustard, and caramelized onion.
