Steak restaurant in Camden London

La Patagonia, 31 Camden High Street, Camden, London, NW1 7JE ...

Review analysis

Steakhouses have been hip since Hawksmoor made meat sexy.

Forget Angus Steakhouse , now we have the fabulously art deco MASH , trendy Soho joint Flat Iron and high end Goodman among many others, all worthy of merit for different reasons.As Argentina is famous for its beef, it’s only natural Argentinian steakhouses should prove successful on this side of the pond.

In the centre of Amsterdam every other restaurant is a South American steakhouse, and while they aren’t quite as ubiquitous here almost everyone has eaten at a Gaucho or one of the highly praised examples of the genre like Buen Ayre or Garufa But La Patagonia is not just about steak.

The menu has a good representation of traditional Argentinian food and its influences, so as well as arepas (corn pancakes) and grilled meats there’s Spanish chorizo and Italian pasta dishes.We start with a couple of empanadas, the Latin equivalent of pasties, fried rather than baked.

Obviously the wine list is mostly made up of Argentinian wines, but there’s native Prosecco and Quilnes beer too.Both food and service are top notch, plus the bill comes to just £70 including two glasses of Malbec and two beers.

London finally has its own first barrio (neighbourhood) restaurant on Camden High Street.

Based on the model of Argentine neighbourhood restaurants for the locals, they offer reasonably priced quality food in a friendly and informal environment.

Unlike in the UK, in Argentina there is an abundance of quality food at modest prices, the barrio restaurants guarantee quality meats, fresh pasta and the classic selection of desserts.

Eventhough Argentina is famous for it's high class beef, the typical cuisine is more diverse than simply “parilla” (grilled meats).

La Patagonia on Camden High Street, knows you're in for a treat.

It's all about traditional Argentine cuisine and culture at this Camden Town restaurant and bar.

Much of the food comes hot from the parrilla charcoal grill and all of the wine is sourced from Mendoza, in the western Argentinean foothills of the Andes.

And if you want even more Argentine bang for your buck?

Dishes range from grilled sweetbreads, empanadas and morcilla (an Argentine black pudding) to loin of lamb served with a mint and coriander chimichurri, chicken escalope and brocheta de carne - a skewer of beef fillet with bacon, Spanish sausage and grilled vegetables.

Vegetarian options come courtesy of spinach and ricotta ravioli, Argentine salads and calabaza con humita - a dish of stuffed butternut squash with a corn and béchamel sauce filling.
