El Farolito
For those who just can’t get enough of red meat, we can think of no better spot than El Farolito.
This Argentinian (of course!) steakhouse has a warm, cosy interior, which quickly gets crowded on the weekend.
Nonetheless, guests are made to feel welcome by a passionate team eager to find the best cut for you. They’ll take time to explain the different cuts, where they come from, and how they’re best cooked.
Portions are generous and most come accompanied by a selection of succulent grilled vegetables.
Be sure to try the chorizo criollo or morcilla sausages, as well as the grilled provoleta cheese – all typical delicacies from Argentina.
The house red is also highly recommended.
Located on the narrow, pedestrianised Calle Beatas, El Farolito is tiny – despite its nice heated patio.
A reservation, or arriving early, therefore, is recommended.
