Palermo

Palermo is a sophisticated Argentine steakhouse located on Little Bourke Street, named after the fashionable Buenos Aires neighborhood. The restaurant focuses on the art of Asado, the traditional Argentine social event of barbecue. Featuring a wood-fire grill and a specialized fire pit, Palermo serves up some of Melbourne’s finest cuts of meat, characterized by deep, smoky flavours. The mid-century inspired interior, with its leather booths and warm lighting, creates an elegant yet relaxed environment for diners. While steak is the main attraction, the menu also includes a variety of traditional sides, fresh seafood, and house-made pasta, all prepared with a South American flair. An extensive list of Argentinean and Australian wines, particularly robust reds, complements the bold menu. Palermo offers a refined and stylish take on traditional barbecue, providing a high-end dining experience that remains grounded in the warmth, history, and communal hospitality of Argentinean culture.
