Parrilladas Argentina

Parrilladas Argentina is a catering business in Kendall West, FL, serving customers throughout the South Florida area with authentic Argentinian grill cuisine for private events. The business specializes in full-service catering for occasions such as weddings, birthdays, baptisms, and other large gatherings, preparing traditional Argentinian meats and side dishes on site. Past clients have hired them for events of around 130 guests, with the owner, Oscar, and his team coordinating directly with the host from booking through the day of the event.

The business traces its roots to an Argentinian immigrant who left a career in insurance to pursue his passion for traditional cuisine alongside his wife. Together, they spent more than 25 years refining homemade recipes built on quality meats and carefully chosen ingredients before bringing the flavors of an Argentinian asado to their new home. The business was established in 1999 and is now in its third generation of parrilleros, with the founder's son and grandson continuing to operate the catering service while the original founder, referred to as Nonno, watches from the sidelines.

The menu centers on cuts and preparations rooted in Argentinian grilling tradition. Entrees include entraña (inside skirt steak), vacío (flank), picaña (sirloin cap), tira de asado (short rib), pollo (chicken), and choripán, a grilled Argentinian sausage served on bread. The appetizers feature empanadas, provoleta (grilled provolone cheese with herbs and spices), and hongos al escabeche (pickled garlic mushrooms served on bread), while sides include French fries, potato salad, organic salad with olive oil and vinaigrette, and mixed vegetables. The inside skirt steak is offered as a secret recipe passed down through the family.

Parrilladas Argentina holds a rating of 5.00, the highest score a business can carry, reflecting feedback from customers who have hired them for weddings and large family events.
