This is a four and a half star review because I just can't give them five stars because we've eaten at other places in Argentina that tasted a smidge better. The prices are higher than most but they do age their beef.
These people are vertical - they grow their own cattle, the bottle their own wine and they have a restaurant. So you know that they are controlling their costs very well.
All that being said the staff was very friendly, the bread basket, olive oil and balsamic brought out at the beginning were very tasty with three different types of bread.
They offer 2, 3 and 6 course tasting menus. Some of the items were not the most expensive or nicest so we decided to go a la carte.
We started with the salmon ceviche and the beef carpaccio. Both were excellent. The salmon was tender with very bright acidity and large leaves of frisée. The carpaccio was the most tender I have ever had in my life. The beef had very good flavor, it had nice large shards of grana padano, a couple of very large leaves of arugula which perfectly balanced the yogurt dressing and the aged balsamic drizzle around the plate.
For our entrées we had a 450 g ribeye - ojo de bife- which was cooked perfectly and had amazing flavor. It was a little strange because it was bone in on two sides and we have not seen that before in the US.
We also had the skirt steak with smashed potatoes. Potatoes had a crispy skin and creamy texture in the center. The skirt steak had to be close to 12 or 14 ounces of skirt steak folded over itself like a snake on the plate. It was cooked perfectly to medium/medium rare and had good flavor.
On the table they have three different kinds of coarse salts. One looked like a pink Himalayan salt, the other one looked like a Hawaiian black salt, regular course table salt and then coarse ground black pepper.
