Chimichurris is an Argentine restaurant and parrilla at 132 Southwark Bridge Road in Southwark. Created by chef Nicolas Modad and Federico Fugazza, it brings the warmth of an Argentine grill house to a cosy London dining room with a strong focus on generous hospitality and carefully sourced ingredients.
Empanadas, provoleta, chorizo and black pudding introduce the flavours associated with a traditional parrilla. These smaller dishes work well as a shared opening, combining crisp pastry, melted cheese and savoury grilled elements before the larger cuts of meat arrive from the charcoal fire.
Argentine beef is a central part of the menu, with steaks cooked over charcoal to develop a smoky crust while keeping the interior tender. Lamb and other grilled specialities broaden the choice, and chimichurri brings herbs, garlic and acidity to the richness of the meat without overpowering it.
Fish, fresh pasta, vegetables and seasonal dishes give diners alternatives to the grill and make the restaurant suitable for a varied table. Argentine wine, particularly Malbec, is a natural partner for the savoury menu, while classic sweets with dulce de leche provide a fitting finish to the meal.
