So glad i found this place on yelp!…read more
In search of a really good authentic parilla, I decided to try out my somewhat sometimes trusty yelp app. I tend to trust the locals more than the tourists as to what connotes good food in their country and so relied on the 7 positive reviews from the Porteños - and sooooooo glad I did.
As the name implies secret parilla does not have a sign outside and all the windows are blacked out - however look for the address and listen for the clanking of plates and glasses and lots of happy chatter and you will find the door to the entrance. Just ring the bell and head in. What's great about this place is that is it very local, we were the only non locals there. Most of the seats on the first floor were reservation only but fortunately we were able to get seated on the second floor in the Miranda.
As in any good asado we ordered the usual - chorizo, morcilla, molleja, chinchulin, and then for the main cut we decided on the bife de chorizo - with all these meat we had to garnish it with a salad for ruffage and a nice Malba Malbec with soda to wash it down.
First the atmosphere was great - just a regular place with locals getting together wth their friends... Secondly the food was incredible....the meats were all delectable - really this is what a good parilla is, the waitress were really nice, and it's at a price that will make you smile.
I definitely recommend getting off the beaten path and discover the secret parilla
