Description

From the window, a tantalizing sight: flames licking up over thick steaks cooking on an open grill. It's a teaser of meaty delights to come, Argentinean classics like lomo (filet mignon), short ribs, rack of lamb and more, all served with a side of plantains and mashed potatoes or steak fries. If you're feeling really hungry, the parillada plate for two (including sirloin steak, grilled chicken, skirt steak, short ribs, morcilla and chorizo) might be your best bet. The kitchen also prepares dishes like pasta, Argentine pizzas and entrees like chicken Milanese and a seafood and plantain stew. Stop in during lunch for one of the best deals in the neighborhood: one main dish, including things like marinated skirt steak or breaded filet of sole, with rice, beans and salad for only $5.99. At night things get more lively, thanks to a New World wine list and a small selection of American and Mexican beers.—Keith Wagstaff
