The fun and entertaining La Casa Latina restaurant brings the tastes and ambience of South America to the Old Town in Prague. Enjoy a wide range of Latino fusion cuisine, including some of the best steaks in Prague courtesy of their open-fire and charcoal grills. La Casa Latina is a complex of rooms, each representing a different aspect of Latin America. One is a nautical tavern with lanterns and swinging chairs. Another is the Iguazu Salon, full of lush vegetation and representing the Parana River. In the Caminito Salon, a live band performs. In another room, you'll find a parrot, iguana and tropical fish. As with many Latin American restaurants, the mainstay of the menu is grilled steaks and other meats cooked al asador (over a fire) or a la parrilla (on a charcoal grill). The meat is served with chimichurri sauce and grilled vegetables. Guests can either dine from the À La Carte menu (more about this later) or opt for the very popular concept at the moment of 'Churrasco Rodizio' and 'La Cantina Self-Service Buffet'. With 'Churrasco Rodizio', chefs serve a procession of delicious hot cooked meats to your table until you signal 'enough!'. And rest assured, they will continue to serve until you signal stop! With 'La Cantina', diners choose from a wide selection of mouth-watering cold dishes laid out buffet-style. Food includes oysters, Empanadas, Peruvian dishes, salads and more.
'Churrasco Rodizio' and 'La Cantina' are set price menus. They are available Tuesday to Saturday evening, with two time slots: 18:00-20:00 OR 20:00-22:00. If you wish to dine from the À La Carte menu, it is available 7 days a week, at all times. Guests will find the steaks are succulent and the sizes range from regular to huge! Choose from beef tenderloin, strip loin, rib eye steak, filet mignon, pork ribs and lamb saddle.
There is also fresh fish and seafood. Enjoy tiraditos, ceviches, red mullet with shrimps, tuna fillet, salmon, tiger prawns and scallops. Plus there are pasta dishes and salads. The wine list at La Casa Latina offers South American wines stretching from Argentina to Brazil, as well as old world favourites from France and Spain. There are also beers, soft drinks and spirits. But you may wish to try the freshly prepared cocktails, which are a speciality of the restaurant. La Casa Latina is suitable for all couples, families and groups of all ages. For young children, there is a play area and some interesting animals to marvel at. There is a lively buzz about La Casa Latina at all times and the food is terrific.
A live Latin band plays nightly, often accompanied by traditional South American dancers. |
