Angus Steakhouse

Mention Angus Beefeater Steakhouse to someone who knows it and you're likely to get an effusive recommendation! Angus Beefeater features authentic Argentine cuisine and utilizes the traditional Argentine method of grilling à la parrilla over oak wood and a bank of hot coals. This family owned restaurant has been in operation since the 1980s and has won many diners choice awards, including beast steaks in Hollywood!  Click here for InTown’s listing of Angus Beefeater Steakhouse!

The appetizers at Angus Beefeater Steakhouse don't flirt with the trendy but go back to a more traditional (and more enjoyable) selection. The empanadas are a must. Our favorite is matambre de pollo, chicken rolled up around a filling of hardboiled eggs, ham and cheese, served sliced, with a cream sauve on the side. Do not forget to try their famous Chimichurri, served with every warm bread at every meal.  Click here for InTown's Gallery of Angus Beefeater Steakhouse.

All of the beef served at Angus Beefeater Steakhouse is Angus, and even less expensive cuts, like the skirt steak, have a deep beefy flavor. Stretched out lengthwise to what looks like a foot, it is juicy and chewy, a steak with texture.  And, for veggie lovers, try the spinach ravioli, we tried it with the cream sauce, which was amazing, but you have your choice from three different sauces. Click here for Angus Beefeater Steakhouse's website.
