The empanadas werent so good neither was the meat or bread, for the high price its not worth it - I only went because Gauchito was closed, not very authentic argentine la comida ni la gente. There was also cucarachas on the wall :|

If you want steak and not have to break the bank for it this is the place. The straps are phenomenal. The Skirt steak is my favorite tender and awesome grilled flavor. A nice touch is they give you a sausage on the house as an appetizer. The service was also great, friendly and helpful with suggestions

Discriminatory against people with disabilities and service animals. despite having a service animal tag for my dog that detects seizures they had me leave. I'm currently in the process of filing a formal complaint with the city along with a lawsuit. Discriminatorio contra personas con discapacidades y animales de servicio. A pesar de tener una etiqueta de animal de servicio para mi perro que detecta convulsiones, me pidieron que me fuera. Actualmente estoy en proceso de presentar una queja formal ante la ciudad y tambien demandarlos.

Meat was cooked well and tasted freshed. Sides were good also. Laid back family atmosphere. Service was fine. Would come back.

This place is amazing! Not only is the food great but so is the service. My family came here on a Friday night (towards the end of the night) and both servers Luciana and Iris were amazing. Even though they had already closed Iris told us to take our time eating and not rush. Luciana noticed my hands were full and helped me fill my son's bottle with milk. This type of service is rare, specially when servers are tired and ready to go home. We ordered the pork chops and shell steak, which were both cooked to perfection. My fiance ordered his steak medium and it was perfectly cocked. Overall, we loved the experience and can't wait to be back. Thank you Luciana and Iris!!

Had to pay homage to the temple of carnivores in corona NY.Go to place for Argentina style steaks and meats. Got my usual special platter for two (big enough for 3 IMHO), along with rice beans and fries.House wine is good and cheap.Their chimichuri is awesome. Toasted bread and grilled sausage appetizers are always on the house.This is my happy place for this type of food. Parking is always challenging and it's not the fanciest of places. They know meats, always have.Had flan with dulce de Leche, so damned good. I probably didn't do my body any favors, but I don't care. We ate and drank well, and had leftovers for 100.

MEAT ME!!! If you're a lover of a great steak, this is the place for you. There's a few Argentine restaurants that hold a special place in my belly, but this is by far one of my favorites. The ambiance is no frills. In fat. It's a butcher shop / restaurant. They have a great selection of all cuts and the grilling is perfection. During the peak hours there is usually a line out there door. But regards of the time, the service is always fantastic. The servings are big so do come with an appetite. This place definitely brings me back to my days in Chile/Argentina. Great food, friendly faces.

As the years have gone by this place has always been one of my go to's for Empanadas I mean they are delicious , baked can't go wrong with either Chicken or Meat! Still all these years & I'd never tried the food finally made it point with my most recent visit to sit & try. Drinks Ginger Ale & Inca cola, not bad maybe some Sangria next time! For Appetizer Empanadas, so delicious they also give u some nice toasted bread & grilled sausage I must say never seem this before the warm bread, added butter & sausage yumm! Main dishes we had the #9 Short rib, grilled & flank steaks & the Muslos de pollo aka boneless chicken it comes with a side we had Tostones & Roasted potatoes. Meats were grilled just right , they were juicy & very flavorful , chicken was just as tasty the grilled taste on the meats was very good. Good tostones , Delicious roasted potatoes. Small location, Service was good & prices well depending on what u get? The Steaks are on the high side. I will always love the empanadas on the go & if u have the time the food was really worth the try.

Well I went there at 1030pm on a Friday night , the host sat me down and this lady with a very rude attitude ask for my order and said we about to close in 1115 what do you want and I said the parrilla for 2 , the order came out at 1105pm and brought me a mix of intestine morcilla hearts ,in which she never specified that there was a parrillada of just meat , i didn't even touched it , along came the check and signed the wrong, as I left very upset about my order , the lady that served came out all mad because I left her a 5 dollar tip and said you sign the wrong receipt, and I was like your service was really bad , and her response was well we about to close and we on a rush and was just there because of me and if I don't like it don't come back ever. I was very shocked by her response . Never every again my Money is welcome there. Just have better personal serving at This place.

I went to this Argentine spot a while back and forgot to write review where one of the groups I belong to went to try their parillada (or rather parillada completa.) we were set at two tables which was fine and our side ordered the more traditional parillada/Parrillada Argentino which had a mix of offal and the other side got the mixed steak one (I guess it would be parillada de bistek.) this came with skirt steak (entraña,) short rib (tira de asado,) sweetbreads (mollejas,) tripe (chinchulines,) kidney (riñón,) black sausage (morcilla,) and Argentine sausage (chorizo.) They list both as being for two people but it can easily feed three if not four. The skirt steak was good while the short rib was a bit chewy. The mollejas were good while I thought the trip was a little bit overcooked. The kidney was excellent as were both the blood and regular sausages. It was overall very tasty and worth it for the price and I tried a bit of the steaks from the pricier one which was good also. We got the ensalada russa or Russian potato salad as our side which was good. We also got a very good version of provoleta or grilled provolone in this case with a oregano based sauce. We also got dessert but I'm unsure which one. I think it was flan and maybe something else with dulce de leche (99% sure it wasn't the panqueues as I would definitely compared to the other Argentine spots) which I remember being reasonably priced and tasty also. I think it might have been alfajores but unsure. Food was tasty. Would post more details. Reasonably priced good Argentine food.
I have come here since I was little and the food never disappoints! Quality meats and delicious empanadas + chimmichurri!

I've been going here over 50 years. The place has changed but not the food. The skirt steaks, morcillas et al are all out of this world. The empanadas are as close to home as if I were back in Buenos Aires having grandma make them. The place doesn't disappoint.

This place used to be great in the 90'S early 2000'S, But now is just an OVERPRICED restaurant, with below mediocre food.. .

Que vergüenza...la calidad de comida es pésima, los chorizos de la parrillada parecen salamines de lo duro que son. La carne muy mala y los riñones de la parrillada parecían goma de borrar. Que lastima que a un lugar así le digan Parrillada Argentina. Que mala representación de nuestra comida. Sigan haciendo arroz con porotos que les va mejor... What a shame...the quality of the food is terrible, the sausages were like like grilled salami... so rubbery because of how hard they are. Very bad meat, and kidneys felt like erasers. What a pity that a place like this is called Argentine Barbecue. What a misrepresentation of our food. Keep making rice with beans...you might do a better job with that.

Tasty steak and side orders! Their empanadas and chimmichurri sauce go hand in hand! Their salmon is good as well! I love their steak sandwiches as well. This place is always a go to for my friends and I when we're craving steak!
