Sorry! We don't have any recommendations for Montevideo right now.
Montevideo was not long ago a city that almost exclusively subsisted on steak and potatoes and pastas, but the city’s restaurant scene has experienced a slow-but-sure emergence the past decade. You still can find all the tasty steak you want, but offerings have diversified with an increasing number of international and fusion restaurants. From fine dining to quality chivito joints, you’ll have your share of memorable meals in Montevideo.
There are several good seafood dishes here, and the pastas are done right, but Tannat is really the place for meat lovers; even nose-to-tail carnivores will leave satisfied. The service is courteous and quick, as the embers are always burning. The downside is there isn't much in the way of lighter dishes, so go there ready to eat.
