Reviews
The restaurant has a cozy atmosphere, the food is delicious and the service is friendly and kind.
The food is spectacular! I recommend trying the authentic Empanadas Malbec, we ordered the grill for 2, which served 3 people with the sides Noque and Yuca mash. The highlight of the lunch was the steak that was perfectly cooked and I recommend trying the dessert, they have the best pancakes with dulce de leche. The wine list is short, but the options are great! We enjoyed the El Enemigo (this wine is of the highest quality, and its producer has been voted the best winery in the world a few times). I really had a very pleasant experience and will be back soon.
I ordered the Picanha which, at the price point they have it at (45 bucks) and at an Argentinian restaurant which should have excellent red meat, was just not good at all. I ordered it medium and it came out quite rare, while being tough and relatively flavorless. There was one piece which tasted the way it should, everything else was a chore to get down.
On the menu it says it comes with roasted vegetables, but what I received was literally two small pieces of steamed broccoli, and two small pieces of carrots which seemed like they had barely been cooked. Veggies are cheap and easy to make tasty if you actually roast them like it says they are on the menu, it’s baffling to cheap out a customer paying over 40 dollars for a dish with a tiny portion of bland, steamed veg.
And this was after we waited a very long time for our food, it was Valentine’s Day which I know is tough for food service so I’m willing to give them a pass on that. But there’s no excuse for an expensive and highly rated Argentinian place to be serving such disappointing meat. Seems like other reviews say the skirt steak was very good, maybe I should have gotten that instead. Though Picanha is a really nice and classic South American cut, and it should be one of the best things on the menu.
My partner got the pesto gnocchi which was also quite bland, in my mind pesto sauce should be green, but this one was white, suggesting they really skimped on the pesto. The lava cake was also not very good and tasted like it was a frozen cake which they reheated.
I hope the owner of this business can read this review and talk to the chef about what is going on with the Picanha, because the only other review I spotted that mentioned it had the exact same problems I had and was written 8 months ago. If someone orders it medium, it should be medium, and it’s a cut that should be tender and flavorful, not tough and bland. The server literally advised me to order it medium because he said the chef has a tendency to make it too rare, but that didn’t seem to do me any good. I left this meal feeling bummed out and ripped off which is really too bad. I don’t like writing any reviews below five stars but I felt like I had to say something in this case, because they have a lot of good things going for them here and I want to see the business succeed and live up to its potential.
