El Butcher

The no-nonsense cooking of their meats are world class. Love the packed flavour. The vibe and atmosphere of the place was average, with the music being a touch loud. Service was knowledgeable, prompt and professional.

I've been to Bogotá quite a bit over the past 6 years, but always just for 24 hours, so I never really spent time finding a restaurant to try. Today I decided to eat instead of shop and found this as I was walking near my hotel. The service was amazing as I got to sit in one of the little clear tents setup outside on the street. I loved it as I was able to sit and people watch and see the dark clouds come over the area. I ordered the Vacío Brangus Cut with Creole Potatoes and it was seasoned and cooked perfectly. I'll be back for more!

Argentinian empanada is big, tasty, a little pricey. Chinchulines are veal, but I've had much better ones. Meat quality is slightly above average. Preferable. It seemed to me that the quality of service would not disappoint, especially when traveling with guests. The children's hamburger was very bland, very tasteless. Those who will prefer as a family should take this into account. We didn't try chicken nuggets, but they suggested it. Maybe you can try it for kid.

This isn't the first time I ate here and all my past experiences were great. When it comes down to it, it was customer service. Our waiter (Leo) just wasn't up to it. I didn't like his reaction that we'll decide if we'll have main dishes after the starters. And when we finally decided on sharing a mixed meat plate. When asked how to cook it, I asked for 1/4 for the steak and the rest (chicken, sausage ...) well done. He said they can only cook to one temperature for everything. Which makes no sense as nobody wants overcooked beef or undercooked chicken. Beef still came more of 3/4 but it's what it is. There was more to the bad service. But what was at the end, the bill presented was for 400.000 COP which was a surprise. I looked and he billed mixed plate and then every individual meat in addition. When all was set and done, total was only 230.000 COP. A big difference. While place is good, I would never have him as a server.

The restaurant serves extremely enjoyable meat! They take special care of how you want it cooked; and the service is outstanding. Not five stars because it could be a bit overpriced. Lastly, if you are like me (an average Colombian guy who cares about the quality but also the quantity! in food), so this is not the place for you to go to stuff yourself.

Service was slow and indifferent. The food was cold when it arrived and the whole experience was completely lacklustre. I would go somewhere else next time.

Average food and really poor service I had a rib eye and it was average nothing special, the service was really bad and the food took forever , also the server was never around and he got an attitude spite we were a big group.. bottom line I will never come back

Update Jun 2021: DISAPPOINTED ☹️ NOT GOOD VALUE FOR MONEY Came today for the 2nd time and was highly disappointed. Last time wasn't the greatest. Bread poorly served, their servers were too pushy to get an order today. -Starters were just ok, the mushrooms were pretty average,for the price you'd expect something more stunning. -I ordered cuadril and small portion , overcooked. The side was salad and I FOUND A PIECE OF PAPER IN IT. I told the waiter and they did nothing about it. My friend had baby beef and it was fine, although overcooked too. 1st visit: Nov 2020 They had a very nice setting, both inside and outside the terrace and street. Their service was outstanding, waiters were checking how we were doing all the time, and I have always thought that is not common in Bogota. The food was nice, the portions were good as well. We had a T-bone and a Bife chorizo, with sides of pasta 3 quesos and green salad. -The bread was not very good to be honest. -Also had Malbec wine by the glass (do not recommend it very much, it tasted as if it had been open for long).
