Victor's Grill II

Victor's Grill II, 7634 Lee Highway, Rt. 29, Falls Church, VA, 703-573-4161, where Black-Eyed Pea used to be, near Mehak (another location at 436 South Washington Street, Falls Church, VA, 703-532-8878) (Metro Trip Planner - opens in new window) [Falls Church News-Press | City Paper | Yelp]

Bolivian as well, but the closest you will find to real parillada. You get an enormous plate, it is quite good but not for all tastes, be prepared for huge slabs and meat and innards. Recommended. It would almost make my favorites list, except I can’t eat this stuff more than once a year.

    Should this be listed under Argentinean? Who knows. They have Chilean, Jamaican, and Bolivian style empanadas as well, even a vegan entry, all super cheap, good snacks.

    Mar del Plata

    Mar del Plata, 1410 14th Street NW, Washington, DC, near Logan Circle, 202-234-2679 (Metro Trip Planner - opens in new window) [Washingtonian | WaPo | City Paper | openlist | Citysearch]

    A useful restaurant in a dining desert, near the Whole Foods. Mostly seafood but get the pork chop. Not cheap, but your options in this area are slim.

    El Patio

    Washingtonian magazine praises this place to the skies, but not a word in its favor is convincing. How can do really do this cuisine without first-rate beef, which no U.S. restaurant short of Morton’s is going to have?
