Che!!! Argentinian Restaurant — Restaurant in Orihuela

We ate here on Saturday for my Dad’s 60th. We had a table reserved for 6 adults and 2 children and were seated a spacious table near the from window. My 9 month old nephew turned on the charm and got a lot of attention from the staff and we were served quickly throughout our stay but I’m sure we would’ve been without his cuteness.

I ordered the cheesy garlic bread for starter to share with a couple of people as it is a full pizza and knew I’d need plenty of room for the mains. There was plenty of garlic and mozzarella which made for a Good garlic bread but the bottom of the pizza base was slightly burnt in places so probably just needed a minute or two less. It was by no means inedible and we all enjoyed it and it was easily finished so nobody had any issues with the base.

For my main I ordered the Shoulder of Lamb which was definitely the star of the show. The lamb is not for the faint hearted as it’s absolutely massive but it’s definitely not quantity over quality as this had both quantity and quality in abundance. The skin was nice and crispy and the lamb was succulent, juicy and full of flavour. I love lamb but it can be a chore to eat if not cooked well but this was cooked to perfection and a pleasure to eat. The potatoes were well cooked and fluffy, the sauce was very tasty and a nice addition.

The others on my table really enjoyed their steaks but I feel the lamb will be very tough to beat and I’d struggle not to get the lamb again when we next return.

Great food and service, I’d...

Have been coming to this restaurant for 20 years and it was always the most expensive restaurant in Villamartin plaza but was worth it for the quality of food and service but I have to say the expierence tonight left a lot to be desired! We were sat next to the door but virtually ignored for most of the meal, constantly asking to clear plates for a dessert menu , for our next drink when they were empty and to top it off the manager was inappropriately putting her hands under her waiter boyfriends top in front of paying customers while service was ongoing. This explains the lack of attentiveness we received from the manager who was serving our table. I would hope that the owners will work to redeem their very good name but as it stands they have lost a group of 20 year long customers and it’s a complete shame. I so wish I didn’t have to write this but I do hope it makes you improve...

The restaurant offers an exceptional dining experience with both outdoor seating and indoor air-conditioned options. The environment is impeccably clean, spacious, and the service is outstanding. Our drinks and starters arrived promptly, and everything was perfect. The garlic cheese bread was generously portioned, almost like a whole pizza, while the empanadas were substantial enough to be a meal on their own. The calamari was also excellent.

When the main courses arrived, we were thoroughly impressed. We ordered a filet, a 12oz Argentine cut, a full slab of ribs, the daily special, and milanesas. The waiter was attentive, ensuring that the steaks were cooked to our satisfaction and offering to adjust the doneness if needed.

Overall, I highly recommend this restaurant. As a visitor from the United States dining with four Norwegians, we all agreed that this place...
