First visit to Alma Argentina and overall, a very enjoyable introduction to this neighborhood spot. Located in a strip mall setting, the restaurant is casual and unassuming, with the food quickly becomes the focus. We started with three empanadas -- Classic Argentinian, Mediterranean Beef, and Corn -- with the option of fried or baked. We went with fried for both texture and flavor, and that proved to be the right call. Each empanada was thoughtfully labeled on the crust for easy identification, a small detail that was appreciated at the table. All were generously filled and well executed, but the corn empanada was the standout for me, offering a slightly sweet, comforting balance that kept me going back for another bite. The house chimichurri, packed with garlic and fresh herbs, was an excellent addition and elevated both the empanadas and later the steak with bright, punchy flavor. For the main course, I ordered the house steak with fries. The cut is an outside skirt steak, typically known for having more flavor than an inside skirt, and it arrived cooked to a perfect medium rare. The steak had a nice beefy flavor, though it leaned a bit tough in texture and, in my opinion, could benefit from an overnight marinade to help tenderize the meat further. The fries were fresh, crisp, and paired nicely with both the steak and chimichurri. Service was friendly and the overall experience felt relaxed and welcoming. A solid first visit with flavorful offerings and a few standout items -- I'd gladly return to explore more of the menu, especially the empanadas. read more

Alma Argentina - Argentine Near Me - Oviedo, Florida

This place is delicious, fresh & the staff are super nice! I always get their empanadas which they have about 15-20 types to choose from either baked or fried (your choice). So far I have had the Mediterranean, Classic Argentinian,,Alma,,Bomba w/ Chz,,Spinach & Chz,,Pizza,,Caprese,,Nutella. I've tried both baked & fried and both are good. I tend to side with baked but for the Nutella fried. My friend's favorite and apparently the staff's too is the Mediterranean. My favorites are the Caprese & Classic Argentinian. They have spicy chimichurri & a regular chimichurri that you can request on the side and it's also so fresh & delicious! If they make a mistake or something isn't up to your & their standards show them and they will more than make it up to you!!! They also have all of the Argentinian favorites like Enrollada & Proveleta & on & on.. Definitely check them out as I highly recommend! read more

Came back here for a birthday meal and my uncle wanted to try it all and let me tell you...ALL OF IT WAS GOOD, even the meats I was iffy about (personal preference only). We got the meat sampler that had a little bit of everything so we got to try everything. All of the meat was perfectly cooked and the sides and appetizers we got were so rich in flavor but not overpowering. It was a delicious meat fest and it easily could feed a party of 5 or 6 in my opinion....unless you're hangry ;) It also looks like they remodeled the place a bit and the seating and layout look very nice. Service was great as always! I just keep thinking about how tender and juicy the meat was and now I'm actually drooling thinking about it and now I'm hungry...time to go back! read more

STUNNING! Delicious steak. Hispanic steaks are always better than American steakhouses. $28 for healthy picanha cuts. I'd get it every time. Will happily go back here next trip to Orlando. read more

We're from Miami and were craving some good grilled meat -- but not the typical American BBQ or a big franchise. That's when we discovered this hidden gem! The flavors are actually better than most Argentine restaurants back home in Miami. The chimichurri? Next level. The meat cuts and cooking temperatures were spot on, and the baked empanadas -- especially the authentic Argentine one -- were absolutely delicious. Everything was perfect, and the prices were surprisingly reasonable. Totally recommended any day of the week! read more

Alma Argentina - Parilla Mediana - Argentine Near Me - Oviedo, Florida

Food was tasty. We all ordered something different so we could taste it. We ordered the empanadas as an app and they were the best empanadas we ever had! The milanesa is like a schnitzel and absolutely delicious, but word to the wise they are HUGE! The service was good until our food came out and then the server ignored us the rest of the meal. I made eye contact with several times and she looked away. We finally wanted our check and a box and flagged down another server to get the check. We wanted to order dessert but decided if they aren't attentive enough to find out we weren't going to stay. She brought us the check and the amount was incorrect as we were charged for 2 bottles of wine instead of two glasses. While the amount was corrected, it shouldn't have been placed there in the first place. Additionally the receipt couldn't be printed and I still questioned the amount of the bill after the wine had been fixed. The bill was $137 and that's only ordering an appetizer, two glasses of wine and beer in addition to our entrees. To me that is a high price for schnitzel. The food is really good, the atmosphere is really quiet with large screened TVs showing European cities, the service and the total amount of the bill leaves something to be desired. read more

Being Argentinian when I first moved to Orlando I was in search for a spot I can go to and have some GOOD food. I have been here twice before and can say this is the place I choose to come to for Argentinian food. The people working have always been super nice and very attentive. It's a rather small spot but a good amount of table to eat. I do know they will host certain soccer games there which is cool. The parrilla was pretty good. I do think this time around it wasn't what I've had before but with that being said it was still good. The milanesa is huge! Honestly you probably could share or have left overs. The fries are super crunchy and one of my favorite fries. The empanada is the perfect starter full of flavor and still have room to eat! read more

My daughter and son in law took me here for my birthday. Food was fabulous, the staff was attentive. Parking was easy. Definitely recommend!

Wow! I absolutely ADORE this little place! If you love empanadas, this is the place for you - breakfast, lunch, dinner, or dessert. Great sides too. Food is tasty and fresh. They also make really great coffee - cappuccino, espresso (it's worth skipping the Starbuck's to pick up a coffee here). Overall, there are a TON of options on the menu to please anyone in the family. The staff are so cool - they dote on you to make sure you are enjoying your food. The ambience is very casual but also very cozy and nice. The staff are delightful and fun. This place is a treasure. read more

So I watch Guga Foods and I have been dying to try picanha (or pichana) steak. So after reading the reviews I had to try Alma. The ambiance is just a small restaurant/carryout in a strip mall with proper decor, nothing fancy. Probably the Italian equivalent would be a pizza diner with a takeout. Now understand this was trying a culinary that I have not or don't recall trying prior so this was new to the wife and I other than places like TexDeBrazil and similar. First we started with a mix of empanadas for an appetizer. And, though I don't like vegie's in my food, the fried empanadas were awesome and got two thumbs up from the wife and said we would be back for more. The three we tried was the Portena Picante (was our favorite), the classic chicken, and the ossobuco and chorizo. The crust was amazing. I want to try the ham and cheese, the three cheese, and the pizza empanadas next. The pichana steak was good and had a heavy charred flavor which was nice. We also got the parrillada medium to try a sampling of their meats. I'm sure all was cooked to perfection. Some meats were a little tougher and the wife liked from her childhood the beef intestine which tasted fine but the consistency was a bit strange to me. Neither of us really could do more than a bite of the blood sausage (morcilla) as it was too different for our palates. That's not to say any of it was bad by the plate's standard. We were trying things we never have tried before. We did notice that Argentinian grill is very much grilling with no seasoning. It is the flavor of the meat an that is it. So I did add some tobasco sauce to some of the meat I sampled. But it was a great experience and the staff were friendly. And by the people in there speaking Spanish I would guess that they felt the food is cooked to their expectation as well. Something to try for sure. And we will be back for more empanadas at the least. Definitely a culinary adventure. read more

Didn't know about this place and so glad I found it !! Let's begin with the very friendly customer service and let's end with the amazing food. My steak was amazing and everything else that we ordered was great. Tip: get the regular chinichurri and the spicy one. They are great. read more

Always a great experience coming here. We were seated immediately upon arriving and the staff was very attentive and friendly. I personally ordered the house steak with fries and a side of chimichurri and it was delicious. The steak was perfectly cooked and seasoned and the fries were the perfect crunchy to soggy ratio lol. My group also ordered the parradilla for 1, but two people ate from it and it was a good portion size. My only minor gripe is that they brought us our fries like 5-10 min before they brought us the entrees. I wish the fries would've come at the same time so all the food could be eaten together and would still be warm. read more

Amazing food, amazing customer service!, it's a very chill atmosphere and relaxing I really enjoyed my time here!

Alma is a small Argentinian restaurant in Oviedo. Located in a strip mall, no outdoor seating. They have tables and chairs or bench seating. They offer an extensive menu including empanadas fried or baked, parrillada meats (chorizo, pork, beef, chicken), milanesas, sándwiches, salads, desserts, a wine list... The service is bilingual, friendly, and happy to be there! The food comes out made to order, hot, and reasonably priced for the portions. My husband and I chose the empanada combo. The classic Argentinian- beef- and chicken both have olives, onion, herbs, red and green peppers, and hard boiled egg, Mediterranean strong lemon flavor, onions and tomatoes, The Porteño picante- not so picante with cayenne pepper flakes. Also the classic chicken is also very good and my favorite. . The crust is amazing, highly recommend them fried. Everyone in the restaurant seems happy with their food which indicates to me that the place offers really authentic Argentine cuisine. We will be back. read more

Came here on accident was trying to get ramen and they where closed and as we were leaving the parking lot we saw this place and thought to ourselves have we ever had Argentinian food? Nope! Came in not knowing what to expect. Place is super clean quiet and one of the most comfy seats I have laid my cheeks on in a long time.... Staff was super friendly and informative. Food........food..... was amazing. Steaks galore and interesting side dishes. We had three empanadas fried and they were top notch!!!! Best fries I have ever eaten in my life!!!!! I would do stuff my face here more often if it were closer to me. read more

Really good food, great empanadas and so many to choose from, delicious meats, cozy atmosphere, good service too.

Love this place food is always good and fresh. But the gold spray goat empanadas are not worth the hype or the up charge. Stick to the classic and the spicy sauce and the Oreo or alfajores and enjoy. read more

I found this place randomly on a facebook comment while I was watching tv. I didn't know there were any Argentinian restaurants in Orlando so my husband and I decided to go after 15 minutes of seeing that comment and it was the greatest decision. The restaurant is on small side but feels very cozy. The service was great and the food was delicious! We ordered a milanesa napolitana with a caprese salad on the side and 2 baked empanadas (pilly cheesesteak and caprese) Both delicious. For dessert we ordered chocotorta and flan with dulce de leche. The flan is one of the best flans &'ve had in a very long time. The milanesa was cooked perfectly and the flavor was delicious. I will definitely come back! read more

Everything went well. Excellent service, excellent fodder, great facility and excellent overall.

The food was excellent, really impressive work! You did a great job, keep up the good work.

Excellent empanadas. We shared two for lunch, the spinach and then the corn. Grabbed an apple for dessert. Chose to have them baked, rather than fried. All served with a side of chimichurri, which was not needed. But tasty Hubby said they were the best he's ever had Very pleasant staff Reasonable prices. I think we will stop there for a snack frequently. They offer Milanese , and breakfast options. There were several desserts I saw going to the tables but did not see them on the menu, including a lovely looking flan. Very casual inside. My only concern is that no one was wearing gloves in the food prep area and also no masks. read more

Alma Argentina is a quaint and cozy food spot with a great array of options to eat. I walked in for a late lunch and am solely an English speaker. The owners are very kind and hospitable, but struggle with English. However, their staff and the menu is easy to navigate for my fellow English speakers. I got the lunch special with 2 x spicy beef empanadas, a apple empanada, side of fries and a drink. They also served me some sides of chimichurri which was fantastic! They even threw in a free dessert Nutella Oreo empanada. I would highly recommend trying this spot out! I love supporting local family owned and operated businesses and it's always great when they are deserving of such a high review based on the quality of their food and service read more
