Got the 20oz rib steak for 2. It was cold, actually puzzled how it was so cold, and they didn’t even ask how we wanted it cooked. Everything was cold except the potatoes, which were burnt. Wasn’t worth complaining about there because we will simply not come back. For the price of the items…. Look elsewhere. Shame because the inside is cozy.

Excellent quality food and great service. Place is small so tables were uncomfortably close to others but otherwise this place is perfect. Very authentic Argentinian food.

We went for the 'Just feed us' option. I highly recommend this if you have a strong appetite and friends to share with, as you are able to sample a series of increasingly delightful foods. Everything was amazing delicious, and our server was incredibly friendly and took pleasure in letting us know little details of each menu item we were being served.

Warm ambiance, outstanding meal and service. Unique salads, the tempura broccoli parmesan bites were light and flavourful. The aged smoked wood fire burgers are not to be missed!

At most restaurants, reserving the “chef’s counter” implies the best seats in the house, with a lively view of the kitchen or plating stations. Here, we got the absolute worst seats in the house, shoved in the back corner, overlooking the area where staff wash their hands and store items. There were flies buzzing around us. Our seats were next to a padlocked door, and an undecorated wall that had some paint peeling off it. I’d be surprised any restaurant would seat patrons in such a location, let alone one where our meal for two was $400.

We had never been but wow were we happy. The food is incredible , the waiter was very nice and helpful. We decided to go with the tasting menu and every dish was incredible, the rib eye steak was the best I’ve ever had hands down.

Excellent food and very knowledgeable staff. Service was fantastic. Warm and inviting atmosphere. We were celebrating a birthday, and went all out and ordered the “feed the table” price fixe menu. Every course was delicious and interesting. Nobody left hungry - in fact we were quite full. Highlights included the burrata, crispy broccoli, smoked chicken (wow!), octopus (so smooth but with the crispy tentacle bits) and steak. Don’t skip the empanadas. Also… dessert - the dulce de leche is amazing and generous enough to share if you run out of space.
