A bit of a frustrating experience, honestly. The service is poor for this class of restaurant. Dónde Carlos across town is light years ahead in terms of service. The food was outstanding, everything made to perfect. Steaks were cooked perfectly and were tender. The potatoes and beans were spot-on. Two plates and drinks came just short of $79 — the food quality does support the price. However, the service and the details you expect from a higher end restaurant don’t. Simple stuff like the men’s bathroom being out of soap shouldn’t happen. Will most likely go again, but it won’t be frequently.

Great food, great ambiance. We ate outside in a beautiful setting. Had sausage sampler starter as our main meal and ordered sides to accompany. I had arugula salad and grilled moxed veggies, hubby had spaghetti—oil and garlicy is how he describes. Sausages were good, we’re just used to a little different taste for sausages being from the USA I guess. They were still good. We are used to spicier. If we are ever back would love to try one of the steaks. $80 USA.
This is a 10/10 experience. They'll be very attentive with you and the food is amazing! The correlation price and quality is very fair. The atmosphere is nice as well with different styles depending on the area you want to sit and have your food. Perfect for a couples night date or for a lunch with friends or colleagues Book a table now
We went here to try my first Argentinan steak back in January. It was flavored and cooked perfectly. We closed them down, and they even served us almost an hour past closing. The staff was super friendly, and we all had a blast. Great steak, great atmosphere, and great service. Check em out!
