Literally translated in Spanish, 'Hermanos' means 'Brothers'. However, the term is also commonly used when one South American country refers tongue & cheek to another, as in a recent interview with the Brazilian national soccer team where they referred to their Argentinean rivals as 'Hermanos'.At Hermanos Restaurant and Wine Bar, we're about showcasing some of the food, imagery, and styles found in South American dining, with our main courses inspired by the many Parillada's or Steakhouses in Argentina & Uruguay. In addition to flavours from northern Brazil & Peru, our wine list is sourced exclusively from the vineyards of Chile & Argentina, not to leave out our signature cocktails: the Brazilian 'Caipirinhia' and Chilean 'Pisco Sour'.more...See more text
Another gem in the Exchange. Love the casual, sleek atmosphere, and the Staff are knowledgable, efficient and very pleasant. Great beef, and a very flavourful menu in general. A nice, relaxing place where you can count on the food being consistently delicious. I like the presentation of the food, also, which adds interest to a meal.
I've been to Hermanos on three separate occasions; once, for an "Eat around the world in Winnipeg" group to sample South American fare, and twice for wine and apps with colleagues to unwind from a long week at work. Though it is on the mid- to high-end in terms of price, even those on a budget can enjoy an excellent bottle of wine from the house list, as well as some fantastic food. I've had their steak in the past, which I found tender and delicious with well-proportioned sides. By now, I think I've sampled almost every appetizer; above all, I recommend the spicy corn bread muffins as part of their bread board. They're studded with pieces of spicy chorizo and peppers, and are moist and delicious. One night, when a group gathered just for wine, I was hungry but not hungry enough for an appetizer. I asked the waitress if she wouldn't mind just serving me two of the cornbread muffins; she happily complied. When the bill arrived, they were absent from the charges! Clearly, this is a place that cares about their customers. I'll definitely be returning.
