Dskco found El Patio by chance, as she explains at the start of her review:

The other night the bf suggested we just drive up the road and try some random restaurant. I usually like to research a place, read reviews, etc before eating somewhere. He is the spontaneous one in the relationship, and I admire that about him. We ended up trying an Argentinean Cafe called El Patio on Twinbrook Prwy. I’ve seen this tiny place before, but never thought about stopping by. The parking lot is tiny. The closest metro stop is Twinbrook on the red line.

She thinks the restaurant is like being in a different country. Besides the dining option you’ll also find a bakery and small grocery with packaged goods from Argentina, Brazil, Paraguay and Uruguay. The food was good and the regulars seemed to be content.

If you’ve ever wondered about Greenberry in Mid-Pike Plaza, she also visited it the same day and her review is here.

Lunching in the DMV is a local Rockville blog reviewing restaurants throughout the metro DC area. Whenever she writes about a restaurant in Rockville, we post a link to her article. She stops by all those places you wonder about to let you know whether you should. We’re happy to share her experiences with our readers.

    Nice review — this is a good restaurant! I especially like the cheese empanadas.
