El Patio Argentine Restaurant, a staple at Loehmann’s Plaza since 2001, has opened a second location at Rockville’s Traville Village shopping center. The family-owned restaurant serves home-style Argentine dishes including empanadas, quiches, chorizo sausages, traditional parrilla barbecues, and milanesas (breaded beef or chicken cutlets). There’s also a large selection of Argentine wines. El Patio made its debut this week at 9755 Traville Gateway Drive, the onetime Nantucket’s Reef space that’s been empty since 2020.
