Muchaaachos - Review - North Beach - Miami - The Infatuation

"There’s a lot about Muchaaachos that will go over your head unless you’re a die-hard Argentine soccer fan. The North Beach parrilla serves fernet and coke in glasses shaped like the World Cup trophy and the bathroom plays an audio of commentators celebrating historic goals. Unless there is a game going on, the restaurant is oddly quiet for a place that looks like it should constantly be celebrating nail-biting PKs. So come during Happy Hour (4:30pm to 6:30pm), or when Inter Miami is playing so that the energy matches the decor. The parrillada—which comes with ribeye, chorizo, morcilla, mollejas, and vegetables—is a great deal for $90. But the best steak option is the skirt steak with a side of bronzed, skin-on fries. It tastes even better if accompanied by a Messi header blaring from the TV. Food Rundown La Empanada Loaded with thick chunks of beef, it’s good—and half the price if you come for Happy Hour. photo credit: Katie June Burton Provoleta Use the focaccia to make mini sandwiches out of the sizzling cheese. Just be sure to split this with a friend or two so you have room for our favorite dish here, the skirt steak. photo credit: Katie June Burton Skirt Steak Use the fries to mop up the juices from this glistening skirt steak. And ask for a side of spicy chimichurri—it’s free and makes you “Waka Waka” like you just scored a winning goal. photo credit: Mariana Trabanino Flan De Dulce De Leche It’s dulce de leche disguised as flan. It’s thick, sticky, and anyone with a low tolerance for sweets will only be able to have one bite of it. photo credit: Katie June Burton" - Mariana Trabanino
