Top-notch, generous, or exceptional in Argentine slang. Saying something is patria is the highest compliment: a huge serving, premium quality, or something done with full generosity and nothing held back.

Examples

El asado de tu viejo es patria total.

Your dad's barbecue is absolutely top-notch, seriously good stuff.

Te dieron una porción patria, claramente les caíste bien.

They gave you a massive portion, you clearly made a good impression.

Regional synonyms

Absolutely amazing, incredibly cool, the superlative of chévere cranked up to maximum. In Venezuela and the Caribbean, cheverísimo is used when chévere alone isn't enough to express how good something really is.
