Wonderful place for dinner! Some of the best meat we’ve had. We had the bife de chorizo and the pepper steak. The food was just phenomenal. Our waiter, Jorge, was very kind and knowledgeable when we had questions. The restaurant was lively and comfortable. Great place to be!

A beautiful evening with fabulous food. The steaks were cooked to perfection and the grilled vegetables were delicious. We had a lovely time and would definitely recommend.

A good steak restaurant, while they also serve seafood too. The steaks are very good - tender and no much extra flavor added. It had available seats before 9 pm so no waiting on one weekday we went. The restaurant is quite which I personally like.

I’m in Argentina with a group. The guide brought us to this amazing restaurant. Everything is fantastic. The service wonderful and the meat …. I never taste anywhere better then this. If you go to Buenos Aires, you definitely want to come here.

A really nice, old fashioned restaurant close to Av Corrientes . Good food. Good service. Most importantly it’s opened between 1600 and 1900 💁‍♂️

Nice looking place. Food was expensive and not all good. The kidney's were very bad as they were not cleaned well. The morticella was very tough as was the beef. Chicken, pork and chorizo were good. The augratin potatoes were pretty much flavorless. Service was disappointing. Not very attentive and brought the wrong drinks twice.

They automatically bring you bread and then charge you for it. No one ordered it The Milanese was very dry, the purée (mashed potatoes) were good The steak was cooked perfectly The salad is simple lettuce tomatoes onions and you make your own dressing with olive oil and balsamic vinegar Nice wines, service was okay We flew in from Mendoza today. Tomorrow is bike riding and boat ride and seeing the city. And maybe tango show

What a fantastic spot for date night! We sat by the perfect window, enjoying a view of the streets of Buenos Aires as we dined. Our waiter was warm and offered great suggestions for both entrees and appetizers. We started with the chorizo and empanadas. I thought I was done with empanadas for this trip, but I'm so glad I decided to try them here. They were tasty, flaky, and served at the perfect temperature. The meat was tender and moist. The chorizo was good, but the empanadas were definitely my favorite. The house chimichurri was phenomenal, and they also served complimentary bread and hummus. For our main courses, we had the short rib, a chorizo bistec, a side of arroz, and two huevos fritas. Although we may have overordered, this was by far the best steak I've had in Argentina. I've tried four different places searching for the best steak, and this one met all our expectations. It was savory, perfectly cooked, charred, and medio rojo. Next time, I'd skip the sides I tried this time and go for the potatoes au gratin instead. I would definitely return and recommend this place to friends.

The service was very poor. The waiter did not pay attention to us at all. Charged us 100 service fee per person and asked for a cash tip. Also the waiter was talking about us to another customer, I can understand phrases in Spanish. So beware and double check your check so they don't overcharge you. The food was good. We ordered a mixed platter and the Lomo steak.

One of the best classic restaurants in town. Don't let the horde of tourists turn you away, old school locals made this place what it is today. The food is amazing, everything that comes out of the grill is cooked to perfection and the pasta dishes are so big they recommend you share it. Desserts are simple but a must. You have to try the provoleta!!

Really cool 100 year old building with a full, classic Argentine menu. Friendly and swift, delicious steaks and sides, and big wine list.

We came here with our friends and the food and service is amazing. The Lomo steak was perfect. This place is worth coming to. Ask for Franko.

Great wine, service. I had shrimp risotto and friends had the lomo steaks. Apparently very tender.

I'm Argentine and I just spent 2 weeks in Buenos Aires after 12 years away. I tried everything I had missed all this time and I have to say this was my absolutely favorite restaurant. Authentic, traditional, non-touristy and amazing! The steak and suprema de pollo were amazing!! so happy to have found this place.

Excellent steak, poor service. The sirloin steak I had was delicious. Other food was quite good as well. However, our waiter barely paid attention to us, refused to give us one check per couple, and was unable to properly use the credit card machine. I understand not being able to speak English in Argentina, but if only 1 person in the restaurant spoke a little English, we might have been able to solve the problem with the credit card in less than 20 minutes. A service charge of 180 pesos for four was added onto the check -- a lousy deal for poor service. I'm sure there are other steak houses in Buenos Aires with equally as good steaks and much better service. Americans, I suggest you go elsewhere.

Hands down the most delicious steak I've ever eaten! I didn't want it to come to an end! Great service. Super friendly. The waiters have a good understanding of English if you a tourist. Just love it all. Not sure how the price comparison is to other places in the area, but considering my beer cost the same as my Starbucks coffee this morning I would say it's pretty good! Especially considering the quality of the meat!!!

The resto looked good, service wasn't warm or special though. Thr fish they served me was average, but I think it was not cooked properly or even maybe bad because I just felt symptoms of food poisoning this morning and it was the only food I had last night. Too bad, wouldve wanted the experience to have been the positive-memorable kind
