About San Telmo

Melbourne, VIC, Australia

Following the Argentine ethos that eating, drinking and most importantly life are there to be enjoyed with friends, family and lovers.

From midday to late at night we offer a shared menu bringing people together just like a family Asado in Argentina.

In our endeavour to capture the essence of Argentine culture and cuisine, we have imported a bespoke 2.5 metre parrilla charcoal grill, hand made by Pirincho, a lifelong master of the craft. He is regarded as one of the most important parrilla craftsman in the world. Pirincho’s previous customers include former Argentine presidents, the Ferrari workshop in Modena, and the VIP restaurant in the Barcelona FC Stadium.
