Fomos no Fazendão para comemorar o aniversário da minha irmã e tivemos uma experiência maravilhosa! O ambiente é encantador, a comida mineira é caprichada e deliciosa, e ainda curtimos uma música ao vivo que deu um charme especial ao momento. Dá pra ver que é um restaurante familiar, cheio de história, cultura e carinho em cada detalhe. O Tadeu nos atendeu com muita simpatia, compartilhou a história do casarão da família e nos fez sentir em casa. É nítido o cuidado em proporcionar uma experiência única aos clientes. Com certeza voltarei outras vezes!

Fomos ao restaurante Fazendão no Dia das Mães e tivemos uma experiência excelente! Logo na chegada, fomos recebidos pelo filho da dona, que estava na recepção — super atencioso e educado, nos deixou bem à vontade. O atendimento como um todo foi ótimo. A comida estava deliciosa, com muita variedade e tudo muito bem feito. O ambiente é espaçoso, arejado, bonito e com uma música agradável ao fundo, que deixou tudo ainda melhor. Com certeza voltaremos outras vezes!
