Tried the rice bowl and the choripán. Both were delicious, but my rice was SOOO greasy I didn’t finish it. The plantains could have been cooked a bit more as they were still soft and they were basically an oil sponge. I know chimichurri is oil based but I’ve had it countlesss times (including in Buenos Aires) and never had one so oily. Service was just ok, left a 15% tip even though it’s counter service.
The steak fries were just too tempting to pass up, and there wasn't an insane line. The beef was cooked perfectly to a medium temp, with plenty of cheese added to deliver plenty of meat for the amount of fries received. Counter service was prompt and friendly, and our meals were ready to go in about five minutes. Zero complaints here, give them a try!
This place was amazing. As we were trying to find seating while our friends were grabbing their food we cracked open the steak fries container. Just doing that - the aroma hit my nose and I was like we need to find a table. It smelled so delicious. It was a chimichurri marinated steak. On top of that the fries themselves were seasoned very well so all around great dish. Out of the empanadas the chorizo was the clear favorite. Not that the other 2 we're bad but the chorizo stood out. Great little place in City Foundry.
Some of the best empanadas I have ever had, you most try the chorizo & cheese and the vegetarian. We also had the Chimichurri marinated flank steak sandwich it was excellent.
