El Charrúa

Behind the gastronomic proposal of the El Charrúa restaurant there is a cultural history that is to be transmitted through the experience offered there. Located in the district of La Molina, the name of this place comes from the aborigines of the territory delimited by the Río de la Plata and the Uruguay River, the first historically known inhabitants of the lands of present-day Uruguay. That essence is what its owner, the Uruguayan José Ramenghi, transmits from the adaptation of the space, in a search to make you feel part of the history and where modernity blends into its cozy place. The excellence in the hunting of this culture is reflected in the specialty of grilled meats, within a letter that suggests presentations such as sauteed loin, Milanese or mushroom sauce; the blue cord of loin; the pepper chicken; the roasted pejerrey; the chorizo ​​steak; the picaña; or pork ribs. In addition, there are temptations such as fettuccini to Alfredo or lasagna to Bolognese. And as a final sweet, the chocolate volcano stands out.

Our specialty, gilled meat 

The name Charrúa comes from the aborigines of the territory delimited by the Río de la Plata and the Uruguay River, which also inhabited southern areas of the Argentine Mesopotamia and perhaps coastal areas of the Middle Paraná River.
