What people say
El Chivi is a must-try for all foodies in Melbourne. This unique snack van and caterer offers the city's first and only Uruguayan steak sandwich, the chivito. Inspired by rustic houses in Colonia Uruguay, El Chivi's artisan bread is delivered fresh daily, and their tender melt-in-your-mouth scotch fillet steak paired with local vegetables and salad ingredients are sure to please any crowd. Not only do they offer a scrumptious vegan option, but they also cater to gluten-free and kids' dietary needs. El Chivi's popularity is evident from their social media posts, where locals have shown their love and support for this food truck. Their Americano burger has become a crowd favorite at many events with its unique mustard and pickled flavor that packs a punch. Book your table early for an unforgettable eat-in experience paired with some of Victoria's best beers or enjoy takeaway using their pager system while you wait in the comfort of your car or at the bar. Don't miss out on this delicious culinary experience!
