Most restaurants of the “La Pasiva” chain (which can be found almost everywhere around Montevideo, and other medium to large cities around the country) you will find a good assortment of the typical Uruguayan dishes, one of them being: “El Chivito”
It is difficult to really set the quality in general of these restaurants, as they will have quite a good representation of these dishes. You can of course find food specific restaurants which can be much better at each different dish, but this is a good place to try a bit of everything.
Food Quality: quite decent. The taste in general is quite good and you will normally not be disappointed.
Portions: very nice portions
Drinks: many options to choose from. If you would like something that is quite local, try the pomelo softdrink.
Price: $$ very good price/quantity value
Service: this chain is what is considered in a way a fast food restaurant, but healthier of course. The dishes come out super quick. And the staff is normally very friendly.
Atmosphere: the normal style is that of a diner. Simple tables and chairs. Ready for the quick wipe and sitting the next person.
Highlights: chivitos, pizza, faina
Things to improve: for the type of restaurant it is, theres not much change that...

Llamo ya un poco enojada pero siempre con respeto y “la ENCARGADA CARLA QUE TIENE LA PASIVA POCITOS “ me dice “ Sra. Es imposible saber si están feas o vencidas no podemos abrir la botella antes de mandarle al cliente ...” ta entendí todo . Le tuve que explicar que los vencimientos están afuera y si le reclaman algo vencido y vuelve a mandar otra mínimo mire el vencimiento. Hoy vino un delivery de la Pasiva a cambiarme la coca por una bien ! El muchacho del delivery un Sr. que sabe hablar con un cliente . Con buena disposición de servicio y que le pediría al o los propietarios de esa Pasiva le den una oportunidad como encargado . Perdón Carla todos nos podemos equivocar pero tú no estás preparada para ese puesto . Sin nombrar cuánto te reclame que no me mandaste el chaja y si me lo cobraste $175 me contestaste no muy lindo “chaja no tenemos” entonces para que me lo cobraste , luego me mando media porción de torta.

Read moreI stay very near to this restaurant and was keen on having dinner here from quite some time as I love the ambiance of this place. We ordered a lasagna and a pork dish and both of them were delicious. My friend took an orange juice and that as well was very fresh and tasty. When the waiter came with the menu he realized that we don't speak good Spanish and immediate got us a English menu card. The place is near the beach and very close to bus...
