Old Is New ... and Delicious

Chimichurri Grill describes itself as Nuevo Argentine Cuisine. I suppose that comes from dishes like their Churrasco which features thinly pounded Filet Mignon instead of the more typical thicker cut of steak.

Nuevo or viejo, Chimichurri Grill is a winner. Like many restaurants in this part of Hell’s Kitchen, the dining room is cozy. Unlike other similarly sized places, it didn’t feel small despite a veritable army of servers and bus boys.

To start we shared an empanada filled with Swiss Chard and Manchego cheese, and a tortilla which to my surprise was served warm rather than cold (tapas on the brain I suppose). Each was tasty and Immersing ourselves further into the flavors of Argentina we ordered a reasonably priced Malbec.

Our entrees consisted of the Entraña (skirt steak) and the Churrasco. The menu offered a few seafood, chicken and pasta dishes but the grilled steaks were primary.

Chimichurri Grill is located on 9^th Avenue between 43^rd and 44^th Streets. Dinner for two consisting of two appetizers, two steak entrees, a $50 bottle of wine, and one desert came to approximately $135 before tip.
