El Chivito D'Oro

The staff were kind and helpful. The lighting is bright and it's a big space with many large tables, so definitely a good place for family. They played a birthday song twice so it's kind of fun when you're celebrating birthdays with the families there. Only drawback was the skirt steak we were recommended was very chewy. The sauces for the steak were amazing though!

We really enjoyed our meal , they have a great menu not just meats etc they also have Uruguayan Italian menu really good and for our sweet tooth we had crepes con dulce de leche yummyyy

This place is good and the price is good too! ! I have some pictures for our amazing take out food!!!

Pleasantly surprised with this restaurant....Very low key and old school feeling place...Almost like a diner feel... Service was on point.... Very impressed with their selection of meats. Started with half a sangria..(for her cause i dont drink)..Had the Bife de chorizo..Shared the bife and had leftovers cause it was so big....... AMAZINGLY BIG AND DELICIOUS!!! Potato salad also delicious..The chimichurri was so good id put it on everything!! EVERYTHING!!!!!! Thank you to Carla my server. Nos vemos pronto!! P.s. I ordered empanadas to go.. Also 100% delicious!!💪🇺🇾

Food was not appetizing. I ordered for pick up.. I had to wait until I got to the store to be able to place the order because they never pick up the phone. Once I placed my order, it was a 30 minute wait. once I got home, I opened up and saw little to no meat.(Ordered a parillada de 2) usually, when ordered in restaurant, they give a lot enough to take home but this time it barely fed 4 people. Meat was raw very pink.Pork was undercooked to the bone.

The place is nice, but the “chivito” sandwich is of very low quality. I’m from South America and I know the national gastronomic symbol of Uruguay called the “Chivito,” which is a simple sandwich. If you want to experience a high-quality chivito like the ones served in Uruguay, you should go to the restaurant called “I Love Paraguay” in Queens. There, you will truly taste a top-level chivito sandwich.

The waitress amazing, I recognized she works there more than 30 years my son age. She is really good , THE BEST WAITRESS!!! GOD BLESS YOU!!! AND OF COURSE THE ENTRAÑA MUY BUENO...GRACIAS.

The food is amazing but I consider the costumer service to be a little slow which can be understandable since it was at full capacity at the time. Server was nice and attentive.

Got chivito plate for takeout. I think getting the sandwich would've been better because then you'll be able to get the full experience. I felt like the plate, while indulgent, was just a hodgepodge of different things. - mashed potatoes were yummy - fries were pretty crispy which was a pleasant surprise because they're thick cut - ham, eggs, bacon were solid - veggies were too vinegary - steak was too well done for me, rubbery basically

Have been wanting to dine here for many years and finally had a chance to stop in last night. Our server greeted us with a warm smile when we walked in and was very friendly throughout our entire meal. I called ahead to see if it was ok for us to come in for a late dinner and they accommodated us with no problem. I was able to order before we arrived, and our table was set with silverware and sauces for the steak before we walked in. We ordered the entrana for 2 personas, medium rare. The steak was perfectly cooked and it was a substantial portion for sharing. Although the restaurant was closing, they did not rush us one bit and even offered us coffee and then dessert after that. The dessert was a light cake with peach, caramel and whipped cream. It was the perfect ending to our meal. Dining here truly felt like eating at home. The service and food was exceptional. Highly recommend and can't wait to come back.

A friend took a group of us out here as coming here has been a ritual for her family for decades. We all couldn't stop raving about this place afterward and have been counting the days until we go back. We were a group of 8 and arrived close to 9 on a Friday night. It was still packed at this hour but thankfully we made reservations in advance and they had the table all ready for us. We had 2 Parrillada Chivito D'Oro Para 2s per 4 people and honestly, it was way too much food even for a bunch of hungry post-gymgoers. But my god was it excellent. It was my first time having matambre and I was very pleasantly surprised. Everything was cooked very well and being a Latin restaurant, expect the meats to be cooked medium - well done. We also had sangria (which was fantastic) and chicken empanadas, which in retrospect, we overestimated how much we were able to eat. We received such great service and the owners being familiar with our friend certainly helped.

I came here with a group of coworkers the waitress recommended the parrillada for 3 and a couple of pitchers of red sangria. The staff was really nice and accommodating; they even moved us to a table that was away from the sun, which was appreciated. The sangria was good--not too sweet, just the right balance. As for the parrillada, it had some amazing cuts of beef on top, but unfortunately, some of the pieces on the bottom were greasy and a little tough to eat. Overall, it was a decent experience, but we kind of expected more, especially considering the hype.

Amazing!! Delicious food and wonderful attentive service! I am Uruguayan and this is the BEST Chivito I've had in the USA. It is a must for Uruguayans and everyone that wants to experience Uruguayan culture and food! 10/10!! We had a pitcher of Sangria which was delicious, the bread and pizza chimichurri taste amazing and so refreshing! Tastes like you're having a mini pizza to start off the meal sooo soo good, the chimichurri is exactly how my mom makes it, to compliment any grilled meats or the Chivito! It is a little far for me but it was well worth the trip! Ambiance is very homey no frills or unnecessary embellishments just about the good food and Uruguayan cultural decor. They have a generous amount of flat screen tvs to watch any sporting event without missing a beat!

I have been coming here for years and it is pretty consistent when it comes to food quality and flavor. Their service is quick if there aren't too many people and most of their servers are friendly. My go to is their skirt steak with a side of Russian potato salad and a glass of sangria. I order the steak medium and 99 percent of the time it is cooked perfectly. The potato is always tasty and pairs so well with the steak. Their chimmichuri is also seasoned to perfection. Their portion sizes have decreased even tho their prices have gone up which is upsetting. Their sangria is sweet and strong. Highly recommend if you are in the mood for a great piece of entraña.

My first time having Uruguayan food and it was excellent! For first timers, i recommend you get the meat platter unless you really know what types of meat you like. We got: - meat platter for 2: i think it would feed about 4 average people. My personal favorite were the blood sausage and the sweet breads. The veal was quite tough but i feel like that's always the case. The beef ribs were also quite good but a little salty - paella marinera for 2: this one is probably indeed adequate for 2 people (maybe stretched for 3). The dish was so moist and all the seafood were perfectly cooked. Can't wait to go back and try other dishes and eat more sweet bread!!!

Ate here today for lunch all by myself while working seasonally as a poll worker nearby. This was definitely my first time eating Uruguayan food feeling curious about what to choose and eat for the first time. I had brought and ate the chicken empanada and 3 veal steak chops with a side of french fries. It was absolutely delicious and tasty that I literally got super full after eating it all up. The service there was also attentive and friendly that I didn't feel rushed about what to choose from the menu of how I can afford it. I couldn't agree more! Finally, I would definitely eat and come back again next time! :)

I love this place! The staff is extremely friendly. Be prepared to eat. It's not flashy, it's a restaurant that serves a lot of FOOD. The skirt steak and sangria is a hit. No need for an appetizer. The warm bread with chimichuri sauce is enough. When I'm really hungry believe me I'm going there to eat and that will be my only meal for the day. Love this place.

El Chevito D'Oro is a great value for a meat lover. When the carnivore in you is far beyond your wallet, this is the place for you. You can bring a date and enjoy a great time. You can come here with friends and have a carefree experience, because no one will stress the check. What you get here is a mountain of grilled meat at a price you will appreciate in these inflationary times and where some restaurants; for a double cheeseburger, fries and a beer; are charging you about the same as you will pay for the mountain of meat in the Parrillada Chivito D'Oro Para 2 with two sides here. I stood in the short cue around 8 on a Saturday night. The place was busy and I was seated in the enclosed sidewalk space alongside the restaurant. I used the time in line to research what I would order. Cece took my order for water and a half pitcher or carafe of sangria. The red sangria is a tad sweet here, but not off-putting. It has lots of fruit in it, so high marks for not shorting you here and fairly priced. The bread they bring is a light sourdough and the chimichurri is good for spreading or dipping with the bread. When Cece brought out the Parrillada Chivito D'Oro for two, it was a mountain of meat presented on an elevated metal platter with something underneath to preserve the warmth. For the current price, you will be hard pressed to find better value. It may vary, depending on what they bring out to you, but on that night it came with a quarter chicken, two ultra thick slabs of bacon, a ton of skirt steak, a delicious sausage, veal steak, and a beef short rib, instead of the matambre. Whatever they bring out on this Parrillada platter, you can rejoice and enjoy this for all it's worth. Seriously, for the same money you could have had a double cheeseburger. The choice is easy here folks. You get to sample in depth what El Chevito offers. The chicken was good, but perhaps the Peruvian rotisserie edges it out. The sausage was very good, but El Gauchito is better. The veal steak will not impress you, but the skirt steak will, especially with the chimichurri. The skirt could be a little more tender and all the meats could be cooked to a more moderate, juicy and tender temperature. Everything comes medium to well done here. The ultra thick bacon slabs were so on point, but it would be even better with American style barbecue sauce, which I am aware is not an Uruguayan thing and El Chivito is an Uruguayan steakhouse to be clear. Their beef short ribs are their strongest suit, enough that I ordered a short rib platter with sides to go. The short ribs are the thing here, better than anything else, more tender, with the bone and fat trimmings for that flavor boost beyond anything my palate experienced, with the bacon still talking in the background. The fries were good and had great texture. The sauteed spinach with garlic and onions was so-so in my estimation. The Russian potato salad was on par with or arguably better than the fries. I cannot forget the traditional Uruguayan dessert I ordered here: the fruit and merengue chaja cake or pie. It's enough for two to share, with peach or apricot and I believe pineapple. I ate it too quickly to assess the fruit accurately. It's on the light side and not too sweet. This is a solid three and a half star experience, muted only by the likes of El Gauchito and certainly not on the level of the more formal and stuffy steakhouses in this City. However, this place will go light on your wallet and everyone can enjoy the carnivorous experience without worry over the check. Bring your date, bring your friends and have money to come back again.

We got meats for 2, caesar salad, garlic shrimp for 5 of us and was filled! The chicken was a bit dry. Their bread and sauce is soo good!! Very quick service and local mom and pop shop. We got a box to go because we were stuffed and they even gave us extra green sauce to take home!

Very good amount of food for the price! We came in a group of 5 and we had leftover food to take home because there was so much. The entraña was delicious and definitely my favorite part. The service could be better but overall a very comfortable place to dine with your family.

There has never been a time that the food was bad here. It is always good. Vilma has been at this restaurant for ao many years. She even remembers the meal you prefer to have and the temperature of your steak. They are an Uruguayan Steakhouse and they prepare the steak to perfection. Always at the right temperature! They also have a chimichurri sauce on the table that accents the steak well. I usually dumped the entire contents of it on my steak. Way better than any steak sauce. They offer warm bread as you sit down and lots of butter on the side. I usually have my entrance with tostones (fried plantains) and that is more than enough to fill me. My bro has the same with a mixed salad that is super fresh , maduros (sweet plantains) and white rice and red beans. They are truly professional is making their food. Vilma also has a great demeanor and is conversational as well. Always happy to see her!!! I return here constantly!

I wanted to try this place out, and met here with a friend. I was surprised how good the food was, especially the meat. They also have a nice selection of Argentinian, Chilean, and Uruguayan wines. The place was low key/casual with a friendly staff. Will definitely be back.

Muy buen servicio, tradicional uruguayo. Un ambiente clásico charrúa. Grata atención y precios accesibles para todos. Combina todos los platos y vinos.

El Chivito de Oro is a great place to go when you are missing a good wholesome meal. The food is fresh and the menu has a wonderful variety of food. Good authentic Uruguayan cuisine. I definitely recommend this restaurant. Service is on point. When your here definitely get the spinach empanadas and Uruguayan wine. Ambiance is family oriented and warm to the heart. Best part of this experience is the Portions, they are large which is great for taking home for leftovers. For those who are complaining about the price on previous reviews, please don't! remember everything has gone up expect for our wages. So if you can just enjoy the great great food. In addition, Parking is meter on the weekdays-Saturday. Free parking on Sundays.

I really wanted to like this place and after reading these reviews was excited to try it out . Someone said best steak house in NYC , they must have only compared it to sizzler or something . This is not even close to being the best steak house in NYC . The matambre was really the only thing good , i had the combo#3 and it was awful ! The short ribs were chewy tough like horse meat the veal was fatty and just not good and the sausage chorizo tasted really off to me like something was not right terrible flavor . Two positives the dessert chaja was excellent and service excellent . So in the end close to $80 fora meal i threw most away tough and strange tasting meat . I could have had much better quality food or a way better steak at many other places . I won't be back except maybe for an empanada and a chaja . All these positive reviews must either be friends and relatives or people that never had a good tender dry aged steak !

Neighborhood staple. Been coming here for over 25 years. The food is consistently delicious and while prices have gone up, you still can't find a similar steakhouse in New York for the same prices. I would come here over a Manhattan steakhouse any day.

If gluttony is a deadly sin, this place is doomed. If having way too much food is the key to human happiness, You have found the Garden of Eden, Nirvana and El Dorado all at once. This place is fantastic. * * * El Chivito D'Oro is a Uruguayan "meat restaurant". The United States has what we call steakhouses, But we don't do meat restaurants. In South America, this is a standard restaurant type. A meat restaurant will feature steak AND sausages AND liver AND tripe AND ham AND bacon AND chicken breast AND any part of any animal that you can realistically cook on a grill. You can order one of the above or all of the above. There is usually something on the menu that means "If you have it in the house, bring it to me." At El Chivito D'Oro, "bring me what you got" is called the Parillada. However, there are other menu items that come close to that basic idea. Servings are generally massive - and are intended to feed two people. Or four people. Or a family of twenty eight, depending on how much you want to divide the platter. For twenty eight, you may want more than one platter. You can count on leaving El Chivito D'Oro stuffed to the gills. * * * How is the food? Outstanding! The meat is basic grilled meat. Steaks are thin, which is the South American way. For pure steaks in and of themselves, there are American-style steakhouses where you can do better. But add all the other fixings, and life gets more interesting. Sauces make life very very interesting. They have a first rate chimichurri. But they also have a first rate tart tomato relish. Both are homemade - and both take what would already be a fine platter of eating and send it absolutely positively over the top. What I ordered was not the parillada but the Chivito al Plato. Chivito al Plato is to Uruguay what Feijoada is to Brazil. It is the national dish and one of the first things tourists should try when they arrive in the country. Like Feijoada, the reputation of Chivito al Plato as being a national treasure is fully justified. This restaurant is fully justified in making that dish the name of the restaurant. Expect a Uruguayan steak with ham and bacon and a fried egg, and cheese and potato salad and french fries and gardineira and raw tomato slices and salad vegetables. The last few items are included to keep things healthy. My version also had some liver snuck in there. The liver was the best part. The amount of food on my plate was as long as an American football and as high as an American football. If you think about it, that is one helluva lot of food. Technically, I was supposed to share my platter with someone. I finished off that platter myself, personally. It was all I could do to get out of my chair. Without the coffee at the end, I don't think I could have done it. * * * But was it worth it? ABSOLUTELY POSITIVELY! Green sauce, red sauce and way too much meat Is the secret of human happiness!

I've been coming to el Chivito since I was a teen. I'm in my 40's now and it is still my favorite steakhouse in all of NYC (including some big name ones which I'll leave to your imagination). The service is always so attentive, the ambiance is very chill, the food is spectacular and the overall vibe is just so welcoming. The prices aren't terrible either. We recently went to celebrate my dad's 71st Bday and it was all he wanted and the wait staff sang to him and he was given his favorite dessert: flan. We never leave there not wanting to come back for more, and always with some delicious leftovers. I have recommended this place to many and they always go back for more. I will always love this place.

If you're in the area and are in the mood for a sandwich, this place is the spot. Savory hearty sandwich and comes with fries. The chicken and steak are both good choices. Put some of the house chimi sauce and it hits the spot.

Fantastic Uruguayan restaurant with a homey feel. Our server was very nice and attentive. All the food was delicious with extremely generous portions. You will definitely go home with leftovers!

Food is good, but it is a lot of meat so it is a little too much for me. Papaya shake is pretty good. I also like their complimentary bread with chimichurri sauce. Portion is huge, price is a little expensive, but then again it's all meat so it makes sense.

I LOVED IT HERE! They have outdoor and indoor dining. Outdoors is lit with the lights as pretty ornaments. There are live performers. It's just gorgeous. Me and my friend ate outside. Outside has more of a date vibe. While indoors feels more of a family friendly experience. The establishment was packed!! For good reason. The food is spectacular and staff to match. Me and my friend got the steak for 2, 2 empanadas, sangria and the chocolate cake. Our waitress was so sweet. She gave us the cake on the house! They have 2 sauces which is just phenomenal. One is a chimichurri sauce while the other is a tomato based sauce. You can literally put that on bread and it would be delicious. I loved everything about this restaurant and would come back again. The prices are very affordable for a steakhouse and it was a great experience all around.

Extremely surprised at the high ratings. I came in here thinking i was going to have the best meats ever. Unfortunately the best thing was the chocolate cake. The steaks were extremely full of veins. Noone at my table finished their meal. The rice and beans had a very distinct flavor to it. Nothing i am used to. The service however was greAt. Our server was attentive and on point. The food was disappointing.

We randomly passed this place and it was smelling so good on the street and there were a lot of people dining. So we went in and shared combo #4 and empanada. It blew my mind how tasty it was. Perfectly cooked meats and delicious empanadas. Service was very attentive and great! I'll be back to try more! Loved every bite.

Been coming to this place since I was basically born. I remember coming with my whole family we would have 10 tables put together for our party. Best meats n food since the 80's .

Food: 4/5 Found this place by accident during an attempt to find outdoor dining. The establishment is located on a corner of a busy street and has indoor seating with maybe 4-5 outdoor tables. We ordered two orders of skirt steak for 2 with fries and an empanada. The skirt steak portion was extremely generous and it was packed with flavor! It was tender, perfectly marinaded and delivered medium (just the way I like it)! It came covered in marinade and "fatty steak juice". Might be one of the better skirt steaks I've tried! This was also my first time trying Uruguayan cuisine but I'm convinced I'm a fan! The skirt steak came with a side of steak fries and it was the perfect combination of crispy and just the right texture. (I dislike soft and soggy fries.) Unfortunately, I didn't get to try the empanada because I was so full but it looked very promising. Service: 4/5 We had an elderly lady as our waitress. She was very nice and accommodating. She screamed "motherly" and had an extremely comforting aurora. A tip of 18% is automatically added to the bill which makes it convenient when checking out. Our lady was nice so we left more. Support local businesses!! Ambiance: 2/5 Really not much going on here in terms of ambiance. Pretty laid back but nothing special. The front looks more like a takeout spot with indoor dining in the back but beggars can't be choosers when trying to find dining options during covid!

Great value steak. You need to know what to order. The first time we ate here, we had the parillada. It is an impressive amount of food, but I'm not a fan of morcilla, the meats are tough and the sweetbreads are overcooked and dry. Since then, we've had the skirt steak which has good flavor but a little fatty. The best has been the shell steak/bife chorizo. It is a very nice cut of meat and they cook it perfectly - well seasoned, nice crust. The watercress salad pairs perfectly. The place is lively, lots of families with children and very casual.

Looking for a good piece of meat in the area and came across this place. Walked in for an early lunch alone, and I was worried about the service seeing how many people had a bad experience with it. My experience was the exact opposite. The server was nice and warm. I ordered the Combo Number 4 that included a strip of short rib, a chorizo and a piece of skirt steak with a side of mash potatoes. Their hot sauce and chimichurri was not that special but the meat quality was quite good for the price. Overall not a bad experience. If I am in the area I would eat here again.

Came here to try their famous sandwich but ended up ordering the wrong thing, which is the same stuff but rather than in between buns like a sandwich would, it was a platter over fries. Portions were huge, and the grilled meats from other tables looked really delicious. May come back again, improvements can be made with staff's serving speed though, took a longer time to get our orders in and for them to gave us the check.

As a Central American, sometimes I need real delicious steak. I've come to the realization that many Latin restaurants use the worst meat cuts - they smash them until the thinnest of thin and it's just awful. And some American restaurants have nailed making steaks taste boxed. This place is delicious, not pricey but worth what you pay (the price matches what you get in quality, portion and flavor). The chimichurri is almost like the one my sister makes back home, which makes me reminisce of great times. The service is good, but not the best. Is not personal, the place is always so busy! The ambiance is good. Everyone is chatting and enjoying their meal as family. The place could use some remodeling, but it's a cute little South American place.

Love this place service and food is amazing The Sangria was ok but the empanadas made up for it

My family and I are from Uruguay and we came in with very high expectations. My brother got the Chivito Al Pan and it was really good, it's huge and very tasty. I had the Carne Milanesa with Yuca and it wa alright not anything to cheer about. My parents on the other hand, were very disappointed with the Parrillada Chivito D'Oro because it did not include chorizo or chinchulin or morcilla. As they are more familiar with parrilladas I had to give the restaurant a 3/5. My mom simply ask why they didn't have certain things and the whole staff gave us dirty looks... we asked a simple question and they were super rude. Do not waste your time tbh.

Absolutely delicious food and friendly staff !! Can't wait to come back . Parking is a little difficult but def worth it

I couldn't post all the items from my picture but we ordered... Combo #4 - short rib, skirt steak and sausage with a side of rice and beans Large mixed salad Calamares Fritos Chicken empanada Small Ceviche De Camarones This was $66 and can feed about 2-3 people. There was just something so comforting about this meal! We started off with the chicken empanada, it was pretty moist and packed full of chicken! The calamari was perfectly cooked, came with a side of marinara and bbq sauce??? Which was weird but we used it for the sausage heheheh. The meat was cooked perfectly (medium rare) and they gave us such a big cut of short rib. The rice and beans were okay - I would try their plantains next time just to switch things up a bit! The mixed salad was very nostalgic of school salad, it was pretty cheap and helped cut the fatness from the meat. Yay. Health. I wasn't planning on getting the shrimp ceviche but I saw they had a lot and it looked pretty good... they really packed the shrimps in there!!they were small shrimps but every bite was a like 2 shrimps!! I would totally recommend this place!!! The staff are also extremely nice!

Great experience always. My family stampede. Good food, great sangria, great service.

Food was great! We Ordered the... Parrillada Chivito D'oro Para 2 (carne, pollo, matambre, chorizo, ternera) (beef steak, chicken, matambre, sausage, veal steak) Wit a side order of white rice and beans and Yucca Frita (Fried Yucca) Sangria was good tooo!!! Went with the red but they have a white option for you

My boyfriend and I had a date night in Jackson Heights and we wanted to try out this amazing place. The service here is phenomenal and the food was absolutely amazing!! I had the T-Bone Steak and it was delicious. Cooked to perfection. The appetizers were all delicious! I recommend getting the sausage. If you are a true meat lover this place is for you!! I love how they bring out the bread with the grill markings. The bread was made fresh to order. Highly recommend this place!

Great steaks However the bad customer service does not make up for it!!! This is NYC they should know that steakhouses are a dime a dozen, and they aren't even the best. Rude and doesn't even take the time to explain or greet the customers. If I'm wrong, maybe I just don't look like the type of customers they feel that they should make the time and effort to greet. I hope I'm wrong, but this has happened to me more than once. I GET THE MESSAGE

This is one of my favorite restaurants. I think we eat here every other week or at least once a week. Their grilled meats are off the hook. We typically walk out with portions that will feed another meal for the two of us. So we end up ordering two entrees, but that will result in two meals each. So its worth it at the end. We typically get the Bife De Chorizo (Shell Steak) and an order of Asado (Short Ribs), both cooked medium. As for the sides, its whatever we are craving for at the moment. You cant go wrong with the sauteed spinach and potato salad. That would probably be the best beginners meal. They also have this complimentary toasted bread that tastes soooo good with the Chimichuri and vinegar tomato. It also tastes good with butter, then again, what bread doesnt taste good? All in all, this place is never a let down, great staff and they never rush you to leave, you can take your time and enjoy your meal one bite at a time. Get the sweet plantains as your side, its really good, its so sweet that its almost like a dessert. Also, if you drink, get the half carafe house red wine, only $7 or the whole carafe for $11. I dont drink so my fiance can drink the half carafe all by himself.

This is my first time eating Uruguayan food. The grilled meats were very similar to Argentine grilled meats, but somehow, not as tasty (although still pretty good). A little bit of salt would have made a huge difference! Service was friendly and attentive. They were very accommodating to my group of 12. Bread was delicious and served warm....yummmm! Also, 1/2 liter of Sangria was $11.00! Our Shared Menu: ~ House Salad - really good salad, but very over-priced ($16 for large) ~ Spaghetti w.Pesto Sauce (w.hidden, stuffed slice of meat underneath) - just ok. Combo #4: ~ Short Rib - pretty good but not great. ~ Sausage - my fav dish! Sausage seemed like it was home-made and was delicious. ~ Skirt Steak - pretty good but not great. ~ Tostones (or we could have had rice/beans-we opted for the tostones since we already ordere the pasta w.pesto).....served nice and warm but completely unsalted. We quickly salted them while they were still hot, which made a world of difference.

Came here on a sunday night. Place was half empty. Host sat us right away and server took our order quick. The bread with a side of chimichurri and a tomato sauce was a nice complimentary starter. For appetizer had a beef empanda 4/5 was really good. My wife had the fettuccine alfredo with chicken it was great. The main disappointment was their steak I had 3 short ribs medium rare with rice and beans. The beef was extremely chewy. I probably ate half. I was really disappointed. Tbh I wouldn't recommend and wont be going back. If your in the area I recommend El gauchito or La fusta for steak .

Went there on a Tuesday night and I loved it! they have indoor and outdoor seating and the staff is very friendly. We have ordered the parrillada x2 (comes with 2 sides) and the amount of meat served to us was unbelievable. I'm pretty sure that 4 people can eat it. Giving 4 stars rather than 5 because the meat was pretty fatty and the price on their website ($41) doesn't reflect the actual price ($49).

We have been going to this restaurant at lease 20 years we used to live in Brooklyn and now we live in Long Island, but every time we are on the area we make sure to stop at our favorite Parrillada! We feel like home they have the same workers, the same waitress. If you are a meat lover this is your place.

This is one of my favorite restaurants in the city. The meat is delicious, and the value is phenomenal. This is way better than those overpriced Argentine places in other parts of New York City. I'm daydreaming and drooling about the blood sausage as I type this review.

Crowded Sunday Afternoon dinner ambiance. Service is superb, so eat the complimentary bread with butter they offer because your food may not come any time soon. Ordered the half pitcher sangria, it's not the best but it has its kick. Once the parrillada plate comes out, you would had built your appetite and eat. This comes with ribs, steak, blood pudding sausage and pork. You get to choose two sides with this. OMG, this is a gastronomic coma right on your table, but so well worth it. Make sure you don't over indulge on the complimentary bread or else, you'll be full by the time your order arrives.

The parrillada para 1 was quite filling; standouts included the beef short ribs and veal steak. I believe there was a strip of pork belly which was similarly tasty. The blood sausage was kind of odd with the contents oozing out when I sliced through the structure. Bread was very fresh and nicely toasted. Massini was frozen (had not been taken out of refrigerator) and layered with a somewhat tiramisu vibe. Cool collection of black and white photos of Uruguayan locations along the walls.

Always great food. The parrillada para dos can feed up to 4 people. The staff is very friendly and efficient. I always go back here.
