El Morfi Grill was founded in 1991 by brothers Rene and Jorge Vildoza. First styled as an eatery, El Morfi opened at the corner of California and Orange and moved to its Brand Boulevard location in 1997. The location is unique -brick walls, hanging plants and skylights offer a choice of dining motifs: display cooking, boulevard front picture window and secluded table environments are all available. El Morfi also features boulevard outdoor dining.

HOMESTYLE ARGENTINE CUISINE

Southern South America was settled by émigrés form both Italy and Spain. The result is that pizza and pastas are a significant part of El Morfi's menu. Argentina's flourishing cattle industry -from the gauchos to modern time- add grilled and bar-b-que meats, sausages and mollejas to the mix for a unique combination of entrées (Parrillada Argentina.)
Service is foremost at El Morfi. We strive to make your meal a pleasant dining experience. Special requests are honored when possible. Our goal is to serve you "as you like it!"

A FAMILY TRADITION

El Morfi's service and cuisine bring you the best efforts of three generations of members of family Vildoza. Brothers Rene and Jorge originally pooled talents with Rene superintending the dining room and Jorge the kitchen. They had grown up in Buenos Aires learning from their father, a master meat cutter.
Rene continues that tradition and other restaurants vie for his talents preparing fillets, steaks and ribs. Those are featured at El Morfi.
Father's recipe for Locro, a rich goulash of white beans, corn, beef, pork and vegetables topped with cheese is a frequent special of the day. Mama's recipe for Argentine potato salad is a side dish available daily.
Rene contributed the family recipe for chimichurri, an olive oil, garlic and parsley condiment, which is delicious to grace El Morfi entrées as well as on our homemade baguette style bread.
Rene's children have followed in the family tradition and will be pleased to serve you. The newest member of family Vildoza, Monica, is adding to our culinary heritage with her own mole style pork flanks. They are delicious!

THE EL MORFI EXPERIENCE

Patrons ask: "What does El Morfi mean?"

The answer is: "A perfect dining experience."

Tango dancers and singers in Argentina developed the expression "El Morfi" to describe a complete and perfect repast. The right food, the right beverages and the right environment and ambiance to enjoy them in. That perfect combination is "El Morfi" and we seek to create that experience for you.

BUEN PROVECHO!!!
