San Telmo is a highly-regarded Argentinian steakhouse in Melbourne's CBD known for charcoal-grilled meats and vibrant atmosphere. Must-tries include the pork jowl, provoleta cheese, perfectly cooked steaks with chimichurri, and crispy empanadas (which are larger than they sound). One heads-up: the dining room is quite dim, so bring glasses if you need them to read the menu.
