An expansive menu of Uruguayan comfort food embellished with globally influenced plates has crowned this intimate restaurant from chef Juan Pablo Clerici’s as one of Montevideo’s most popular evening hangouts since its opening over 25 years ago.

Boisterous diners congregate under soft lighting in the intimate dining room to share platters of lamb empanadas and paprika-dusted grilled squid, while a crowd-pleasing à la carte menu offers beef ragu, salmon tartare with mango and ginger, and blood orange pudding topped with dulce de leche ice cream. Don’t ignore the sashimi and sushi menu – it’s touted as some of the best in the city.
