Have to give this low rating because literally in the middle of our meal right after we were served our waiter left for the day. No one told us and after that we had to basically beg for plates to be cleared, another drink and the bill. Sad we couldn't even get coffee or dessert. Very bad form. Won't go back as the food while good, can find the same quality elsewhere with good service.

The server said it was made with mayo. Service was excellent. Since we had a bit of a hard time understanding the items on the menu, the waiter brought out the different cuts of meat to show us so that we could chose. He was very sweet and friendly. The only thing that I didn't like about this place was that there were stains and dirt on some of the walls. Overall, it's a decent place- good food, bright colored walls, good service, but could have been cleaner.

It does get busy so getting a reservation is probably a good idea. I'm giving it four stars because they were out of a couple of very standard things, like Miso soup, it wasn't a big thing but getting the little things right makes the whole experience better. Also, their fish selection was a little small for my taste. The sushi was very good, well prepared and well presented. They do serve your rolls family style, with all the rolls ordered coming out on one serving board, so be sure to ask what is what if you don't already know. You won't find the variety here that you do in a U.S. based sushi house but you'll definitely find the quality and attention to detail. I'll definitely be visiting this restaurant again.

Ternera con salsa de Malbec (Veal with Malbec Sauce) and friend potatoes, and Rolls de Pollo (chicken breast rolled with ham, cheese and spinach) with au gratin potatoes. They were both good, but the steak was excellent!! It was super tender and the sauce was amazing. One of the best $8 US meals we've ever had. These weekday lunch specials included a beverage (water, wine or soda), the main dish, a basket of bread and either a desert or coffee. I choose the glass of red house wine which was Malbec as it usually is in Argentine. It was very good as well. Highly recommended if you are looking for a very nice, traditional Argentinian restaurant at a reasonable price. We went at about 2:00 on a weekday and there were plenty of open tables. I can't wait to return and try something else there.

Ok... OMG... I was searching the net for this restaurant as a friend is going to Argentina soon…read more I have very fond memories of going to this restaurant with my parents when we used to live in Palermo, BS. AS., Argentina. Going there was a treat, once a month or so. I always had the filet mignon there. I remember the waiter that was always there helping us, chit chatting here and there, providing us a very welcoming and great service. This review would be for the times in the late 80's. Food was always perfect. At the time the place seemed kind of upscale compared to cafes that had no table cloth and stuff...for an elementary kid. The waiter recommended my parents to try their sangria cocktail and they loved it and had always ordered it. The steaks were always perfect and so juicy. My parents would sometimes order Italian pasta dishes and they were all yummy. A great steak...one needs to just eat it with minimum salt, pepper, and some fresh lemon juice drops. No need for any fancy, salty sauces or toppings. I know because in Argentina I have had lots of GOOD steaks. And in Pepito, that's was our experience. I miss it and miss the waiter there, too. If budget and time allows, one day I will take my husband and daughter to visit Argentina and have many meals at Pepito again. I almost cried seeing some photos others have posted. Yeah, just as if a Chinese or Portuguese tourist comes to a local American restaurant, imagine any chain, big restaurants, they will face the same difficulties ordering in English if they can't speak it. So, don't be expecting people in other countries to speak YOUR language. If you are traveling overseas, learn and try new things and don't expect English is a must. Prepare ahead. Take a dictionary or a smart phone/tab with translation apps with you. I speak 3 languages because I had the fortune to have lived in different countries. Open your eyes and don't criticize other cultures or countries for being different.

It was the only thing I ate for the day, so provenance isn't in doubt as to place, though as to what caused it? Who knows. Most likely either raw veggies or hands that weren't properly washed. At the same time, it's not the sort of place that felt like that would be a regular occurrence, and they were mortified when I contacted them about it, and promised to sort it out. Which made me think I ought to give them a second visit. As did the fact that the place comes recommended by at least a couple of foodie folk I know. On, however, this visit, and looking at just the food, they have a lunch special for 200 pesos ($8.50) that includes a choice of appetizer and a choice of bao. For the former I went with a classic Vietnamese nem, or fried springroll. It was tasty, but a bit oily inside because, as you can see from when I flipped it over, one entire side is open. That's the kind of thing that you'd think someone plating the dish would have noticed and started over again. For my choice of bao, I went slightly unusual with the fried chicken one, because, well, fried chicken. Actually pretty good, and the "broken potatoes" rock. I could just go in and eat a plate of those. A small bottle of ginger ale washed it all down. Negative, I'd have liked to try a second bao, but the only way they offer it is in combo, and the minimum combo was a 170 peso bao with another appetizer, more potatoes, and another beverage, none of which I wanted. They weren't willing to sell just a bao, even though I'd already eaten a full combo. That strikes me a little inhospitable and inflexible. Which made me think I ought not to give them a second visit... but... ...eventually, about three weeks on, giving them another shot won out. On my second visit, they've dropped the lunch combo, and now simply charge more for each individual bao, each of which comes with those great broken potatoes. They've expanded the appetizer offerings, or maybe they're just non-bao offerings, as they're all roughly the same prices., somewhere between 120-150 pesos apiece. They did, however, change that great vinegary dipping sauce for the potatoes too, and now offer up a sort of milky, near flavorless liquid that made no sense to me. Like watered down ranch dressing. Tried two of the bao (they won't serve one without the potatoes, so if you want more than one, it's a lot of potato - I didn't even eat half of them). The clasico is a sweet, hoisin sauce glazed pork belly, the sweetness offset nicely by pickled beets; the bondiola is a slow braised pork shoulder with a sort of cabbage slaw. Both delicious. No ill effects. They do pick out one of the half dozen bao offerings daily at lunch and offer it as the day's special, dropping the price for whichever one it is from 150 down to 90 pesos, which is a bargain! Bring back the spicy dipping sauce for the potatoes, and maybe let folk who want to order a second bao get one without a pile of potatoes, and I'm sold.
