La Parrilla de Tony — Restaurant in Municipio de San Carlos de Bariloche

I visited La Parrilla de Tony during my trip to Bariloche after hearing many recommendations.

The atmosphere is everything you’d expect from a classic Bariloche spot, cozy with warm wood walls. Plus, if you’re into watching sports or catching up on the Olympics, they’ve got TVs ready for you 👀.

The service was good. The staff was kind, and our food arrived promptly. They took the time to explain the different cuts of meat, which was really helpful.

The food itself was fantastic, especially the steaks, which were perfectly cooked. For starters, we ordered provoleta (no photo 📸), beef empanadas, and chorizo—all absolutely delicious.

For the main course, I suggest sharing because the portions are huge 🥩🫰🏼. The Bife de Lomo was tender and super juicy (4/5), the Entraña was packed with flavor and cooked just right (5/5), and the Ojo de Bife was beautifully grilled (5/5).

We also tried the Dulce de Leche Flan, which was just okay but nothing special. I'd...

We waited for some time and it looked like we were going to wait a lot more. There was a table available for 4 persons and the personnel said that he will wait for 4 persons for this table and we will need to wait more for small tables.

Anyways, cordero patagonico plate for two persons cost 6500pesos and it was good enough amount for two. Although grilled meat was not as soft as I expected it to be. It is easy to find way much better taste and service in...

After excursion bus dropped us in front of this place at opening time, 8:00 P.M., we were the first customers and were treated exceptionally and kindly. We started with the grilled provoleta, one of the best I have ever had, crispy, hot and tasty. We went on to have the meat parrillada, which contained; rare and juicy filet, churrasco, ribs, lamb and pork. The parrillador would occasionally come by and offer us other cuts fresh off the parrilla. All the meats were remarkable and among the best parrilladas I have ever had. Accompanyments of papas fritas, pure de papa and ensalada mixta were perfect. Had a delicious flan con crema for dessert topping off a spectacular meal. Hats off to the parrilladores and wait...
