Argentine restaurant opens its doors in Leicester
A family-run Argentine restaurant has opened its doors in a Grade II listed venue on King Street, near New Walk, in Leicester city centre.
Wild Tango, the new venture at 14-16 King Street, is the creation of head chef Martin Bianchini and his partner Valeria Bernardi.
With 30 years of culinary experience, Bianchini brings his expertise from La Patagonia Argentina, while Bernardi manages the front of house.
The keys to the venue were handed over in June 2023, and after more than seven months of renovations and restorations, Wild Tango officially opened in spring 2024.
Law firm Nelsons assisted with securing the location for the restaurant.
Amir Ahmed, associate and commercial property solicitor, said: “It’s always a pleasure to be able to support a family business starting out in the local community – and Wild Tango promises to be a brilliant addition to the Leicester hospitality scene. The team sought our commercial property services to support the transaction of what would become their new restaurant home, with instructions given in November 2022.
