Estadão
Famous for its pernil (pork loin) sandwiches served on crusty French bread, this no-frills stand-up joint is justifiably popular with both taxi drivers and the late-night revelers they ferry about.

Open-Air Food Court
A busy open-air food court occupies part of the long narrow park between the split lanes of Av Capitan Garcez. A slew of mom-and-pop restaurants have tables set up under a high awning, serving cheap tasty Brazilian fare. There's occasionally live music, but the lively, family-friendly ambiance is the real draw here.
At the top end of the same park are a restaurant quartet: a pizza joint, upscale Italian restaurant, midrange churrascaria, and Bob's, the ubiquitous fast-food burger chain. They occupy top and bottom floors of identical side-by-side buildings, and are open for lunch and dinner. Take your pick!
