Wow . The food is amazing, the service is definitely Argentina style ( professional but they will let you be and let you enjoy) the ambiance though well lit versus romantic was confortable. They have a downstairs and a loft style upstairs.. would I recommend eating here ABSOLUTELY!! Tonight I had pasta but I'm coming back for the ribeye (another table had it and it looked so good and savory I almost asked them to share). Dessert I had tiramisu & cappuccino.. another great choice.. They're was definitely a great LGBTQ clientele and straight couples too.. the food was so good. I came back a second night and had Daniel as my waiter.... I had to get the ribeye because another Table was eating it and it looks so delicious and it was.!! read more

Calden del Soho is the perfect spot. It is clean and classy. The service is incredible. The menu has something for everyone. The prices are more than fair. The portions are huge! One of the few Parilla spots that offer salads, not just one type! Complimentary bread - came with three dips, the whole garlic is phenomenal. The bread basket comes with breadsticks, crackers and baguettes too. Mushrooms from our farm - the portabella mushrooms were stuffed with cheese and caju. It came with nine mushrooms and the server sliced one in half so me and my husband would get equal shares. Big Ravioli - shrimp and salmon stuffed raviolis with Genovese cheese. The shrimp and salmon seemed fresh and actual meat. It didn't seem like canned shrimp or salmon. The sauce was composed and creamy. As far as the meat orders go - you can order a full serving or half serving which is a great option to have! read more

We ordered the provoleta salad, ribeye and skirt steak. The provelta salad is huge. The cheese was filled with sun dried tomatoes and mushrooms. It was quite tasty. The. The steaks came out. I ordered them rare. The ribeye was unevenly cooked. Somehow one part was medium well and the other part was closer to rare. I was really disappointed with the ribeye. The skirt steak was medium but tasted better. I expected more, especially having my ateaka properly cooked. It's what they do. Based on my experience, I would go somewhere else for a beef meal in BA. read more

Calden del Soho - The master! - Argentine Near Me - Buenos Aires, C

Excellent steakhouse, their ribeye was cooked perfectly medium rare and the quality of the beef was great. If you're wanting to order American version of medium rare, order it as 'juguso' which means juicy. Service was good and the prices were fair. I loved that I went to the restaurant and when asking if a table was available, they simply said yes and pointed me to where I could go. Other steakhouses in Palermo would first ask if you have a reservation, then need to talk to this person and that, etc... When all you want is a good steak without all of the unnecessary flair, this would be my number one. read more

A well known parilla among locals in Palermo SoHo that is low key but superb in every sense - from the service to the grill to the table. Just great. Consistently excellent at reasonable prices compared to the more touristy papilla's in the neighborhood. read more

Well I have to say that Calden of Soho still does not disappoint! Ezequiel our server really knocked it out of the park for us. On this outing we came for lunch and did not need to make a line but in the evenings things start to pickup, especially on Thursdays, Fridays and the weekends so show up early if you can. As with our last outing all good items and recommendations made by Ezekiel were excellent. For starters we ordered the Grilled Provoleta (Argentinian thick grilled Provolone cheese with Olive Oil) which was amazing. Next up we orders the "Lomo a La Champignon" (Tenderloin Steak with Mushroom Sauce) with potatoes "Au Gratin" and the "Bife de Chorizo" (Ribeye Steak). with mashed potatoes. All the steaks were incredibly tender and were cooked to perfection on their coal fired grill. Service was excellent but no where near the level of service we received at Don Benito Steakhouse the night before which is why I kept their grading at 4 stars. Rounding out our lunch today we went with some homemade Flan and some espressos to boot. Yep you guessed it, deserts and coffees were very good as well. As always I highly recommend that you walk over if you are staying in the Palermo Soho area of Buenos Aires. If not, then your best bet is to UBER or take a local taxi as parking could be problematic and why would you want to drive if you want to have some drinks or enjoy some wine anyway. "Calden of Soho" is definitely a must visit if you are visiting Buenos Aires. From my perspective you are getting a lot of value for the money you are spending. Wishing you all a great time in Argentina, Enjoy and Bon Appétit! read more

Amazing food in a cool atmosphere. We sat upstairs and had a great view of the grill and all the steaks being cooked. We had the mushrooms from the farm as a starter, chorizo steak and tenderloin with an arugula salad. All were excellent and cooked perfectly. Don't miss the Malbec poached pears for dessert. read more

So so soooo good!!! We were gonna wait for Don Julio (for 3 hours) but we were soooo hungry and we thought we would be wasting our time. Calden del Soho did not disappoint! Locals were eating there so I figured we made the right choice! We got the chitterlings for appetizer, two ribeye steaks, papas fritas, patagonia beer and of course malbec. Everything was sooo sooo sooo good! The steaks were huge and cooked to perfection! The complimentary bread and sauces were good too! I loooved that garlic in oil. read more

We really liked the food here as it was the first restaurant that we dined at in Palermo Soho, but our experience was dimmed somewhat by a very surly waiter. He was borderline rude and my Hispanic wife speaks fluent Spanish and is very friendly and polite everywhere we go. Nevertheless I recommend Calden Del Soho as it has delicious steak, the prices are lower than La Cabrera, and the location is only one block from the Mine Hotel where we were staying. 5 stars for the food, 3 stars for the service. read more

Greatest restaurant experience I've had here as a tourist. During my brief visit in Buenos Aires, I was looking for somewhere to eat that was walking distance. Reviews and pictures were good, so my mom and I went. We were seated promptly as we walked in. We noticed most of the patrons were dressed in formal wear, but we were not made to feel out of place. Our waiter was so kind and attentive, despite some if the challenges the language barrier presented. We each had a beef tenderloin empanada- so amazing. Best empanadas I've ever had. The meat was so tender, juicy, and flavorful. We had the "ensalada completo". Whatever dressing they used was good. It tasted of red berries, but it wasn't overwhelming. Next, my mom and I shared some of the "Ojo de Bife" as well as the "Penne Rigate" with Alfredo sauce. This Alfredo was the most pure and fresh I've had. The steak was so tender and flavorful. It was absolutely fantastic. We ordered it as well done or "to the point" and it was given to us more undercooked than we liked, but we figured the standard we have is likely different to those of locals. Still yummy. The 2 empanadas, the salad, pasta, steak, and bread had a grand total of $26,000 ARS, or around $29 USD with the current exchange rate. We had an absolutely amazing experience in every aspect. Fast service with a kind waiter, lovely romantic ambience, and unbeatable plates. I hope to return on a future visit. read more

We were so excited to get here and eat some great steak. We arrived and they served some bread with a 3 condiments (chimichurra, garlic, and another one i didn't taste). We ended up ordering fillet mignon, cooked rare. It was definitely not rare by US standards and not consistent throughout, but the piece of meat was so big, we had enough rare to fill us up. It did not have as much flavor as I expected. Staff was fine, nothing out of the ordinary. my expectations were too high, but I would have probably gone somewhere else. read more

I had an amazing, memorable, experience last year at Calden del Soho, in Palermo Buenos Aires. A real authentic Argentinian Parrilla. This was no tourist place, An old fashion, authentic, Argentinian steak house, that served incredible Asado. As I entered it I felt warmth and welcomed. it had an old world, classic feeling to it. I believe I was the only tourist there. The service was incredible, the prices were very down to earth, and the quality of the food is something I carry with me for a long time. I was treated like the long-lost cousin. The owner got me a bottle of wine from his own private stash. The waiter couldn't do enough for me and the food was unbelievable. I had an amazing time in Buenos Aires. My experience at Calden del Soho was one of the most memorable ones. I totally miss and appreciate this place as I do for the whole magical city of Buenos Aires. Muchísimas gracias, mi amigo read more

I'm a pescatarian these days, but I always want to do the thing to do in the place to do it. It seems like a steakhouse is the thing to do. I found Calder del Soho on TripAdvisor, it has 4 1/2 stars, 2,800 reviews and was a 15 minute walk from our hotel. They take reservations on Google maps but since it was the day of the only reservations they had available were at 10pm so we took our chances and walked over at 8:30. When we arrived we were greeted by a man in a t shirt outside who we were unclear if he worked there or not, but then he asked how many and brought us over to an open table so I guess he did work there. The restaurant was about half full when we arrived and still was half full when we left. Right away a waiter dropped off a bowl of breads and a platter of some spreads including whole pieces of garlic. We immediately devoured the bread and enjoyed all 3 spreads. We each ordered a water and split a mid level bottle of Malbec that was very good. We then opted for the "entree" of steak which included a side. My potatoes were sorta air fried potatoes, I actually enjoyed my friend's more she got the creamy potatoes. Both of us enjoyed our steaks medium rare, seemed cooked exactly correct with a little charring on the outside. It was a little tough to cut but honestly I don't even know if that's how steak is supposed to be? I'm glad we opted to not get an appitizer, between the free bread and our meal I was totally full and glad I had some room to finish my plate. After dinner we got a free glass of champagne. Overall good food, good service and good wine all for 75,000 ARS. read more

fantastic, thick boneless ribeye. asked for medium rare but it was blue inside. not sure if that's the standard here or wasn't cooked long enough. other BA restaurants were closer to what I expected. service was okay, not super pleasant but whatever. waiter was kind enough to let me know I ordered too much. side dishes were easily shareable so one was enough for me. I loved the creamed spinach which was finished in an oven/broiler with melted cheese on top. delicious! good wine list at all price levels. nice bread basket with an assortment of condiments. read more

[The ultimate steak tour in Buenos Aires] [TL;DR] - Quality of food, though still great, is a half a step below of Don Julio. - Best service of all the steakhouses that I've been to. - Would award this place for the best budget steak option. After somehow convincing my wife, we recently completed a week long tour of the best speciality steakhouses in Buenos Aires. I sourced the list with a combination of Google Maps, Yelp, Trip Advisors, and some food bloggers. Overall, the restaurants we visited and ranked are below: (The links are listed at the bottom and the details are listed on each of the restaurant's profile) 1st: Don Julio 2nd: La Cabrera 3rd: Calden del Soho 4th: Santos Manjares [Details] Calden del Soho, is sufficient to a great fine-dining steak experience and i would only put at a half step below both Don Julio & La Cabrera. The service was outstanding, the streak was a solid high quality of meat, AND we were seated right away. [Food] Of course, we ordered the Ribeye again and a side of mash potatoes and grilled veggies. The quality of the steak is on par with a amazing steak, but it was a little chewy and it wasn't that "Melt in your mouth" amazing, but still more than satisfy my cravings. [Service] The service was probably the best of all the steak house places that i've been to. When we first sat down initially, the owner came by and took his time to explain to us the different types of steaks and which wines he would recommend. He also came back twice to ensure that we enjoyed our steak. The waiter was attentive and made sure we were taken care of. The decor seems a little more on the casual side, but still a great place for a date night. [Price] The ribeye was approx. 550 Ars ($9.50 USD). Which was by far the cheapest of all the steak houses that i've went to. Having said that, I would award them the best budget steakhouse option in all of BA. [Stars Breakdown] - Food - Up to 3 stars: (Given for the quality of the steak) - Service - Up to 1 star - Overall Experience: Up to 1 star - Food: 2 Stars - Service: 1 Star - Overall: 1 Star Total: 4 Stars [Links] - Don Julio - https://www.yelp.es/biz/don-julio-buenos-aires - Santos Mangares: https://www.yelp.es/biz/santos-manjares-buenos-aires - La Cabrera: https://www.yelp.es/biz/la-cabrera-buenos-aires read more

We loved this restaurant. To start, you get a bucket of bread with a nice array of spreads to munch on. There's a great selection of wine, meat, as well as other food types. When we were there (in February of 2020), the meat selections were in the 800-1000 peso range for each 2/3 lb portion - so we could easily split one with a couple of appetizers and sides. What really set this place apart for us though was the exceptional service. The service was possibly the best I have ever had. Definitly worth stopping here. read more

On our first night in BA we decided to go all "in" with a true Argentinian steakhouse and Calder del SoHo more than met the requirements even though we had one vegetarian in tow! We got there on the relatively early side (9am) on a Wednesday and there will was a wait so be prepared. What made it work for the vegetarian (my wife) was the delicious bread, tasty baked potato and egg pastry and the tasty grilled veggies (super flavorful). For the omnivores, we went after the steaks. I had the steak with mushroom sauce (potatoes and peas too) and our companions had the tenderloin. Portions were very big and luckily delicious! The fab bread was also great for soaking up the mushroom sauce. Everything was gone quickly. Service was pretty good and our meal came out relatively fast. Of course we had a fab Argentinian wine to go with dinner! read more

Calden del Soho - Argentine Near Me - Buenos Aires, C

Sure, there's better places in Buenos Aires to get traditional food, but this place was good for our budget, and 1 block from our hotel, and was easy to get a reservation at, so we headed here for dinner. We were sat early for dinner in South America, but with a 3:30am wake up call, eating at 7:30pm was necessary. The place itself was cute and had a homey feel. Some tables were upstairs, but we stayed downstairs. Kinda drunk on arrival, our server was definitely getting a kick out of us, and loved when we ordered 1 bottle of red and 1 of white... hey don't judge, the wine was dirt cheap, and we couldn't agree on color lol. We decided to dive right in and start with Blood Sausages and Sweet Breads! Both delicious, though I will say after a few different Argentinian Blood Sausages on the trip, I do prefer the European version lol. I opted to get the Skirt Steak and a side of Grilled Veggies. Vegetables were awesome, but I was slightly disappointed in the steak. A bit chewy and I felt I cook better at home.... Regardless, a great experience! read more

Good location? Check. Extensive Menu with affordable prices? Check. Great food? Meh, it's alright. Star 1: How was the service and atmosphere? Soho is an absolutely fantastic neighborhood, and the "Latin America" streets in particular are absolutely phenomenal. You've got westernized bars all over the place, but Calden Del Soho really stands out on a prominent corner with a welcoming atmosphere. Service is fast and friendly, and you'll find yourself amongst a pretty mixed crowd of locals and travellers alike. Star Granted. Star 2: How were the portions relative to the cost? A large steak? $13.00 http://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?select=_CbpBzcwkZQ_TA3esrfigw&userid=OKX-V5j_qfuOebeHeWGrHg That's fair. Star Granted. Stars 3 and 4: How was the food? You know? It was alright. You can without question find some of the best steak on the planet in Buenos Aires, so I was a bit disappointed to find that I couldn't quite cut through this steak like butter with my fork. It was branded as "Chorizo Steak", but I honestly couldn't tell a difference here between my steak and any other basic cut of meat seasoned with salt and pepper. Good, but not great, and no peripherals like french fries were included with the meal. Single Star Granted. Star 5: Would you eat here every day if you could? Calden Del Soho is a safe bet if you're not wanting to go out on a limb, but you really should seek out a better Argentine steakhouse. No Star Granted. read more

Calden del Soho - Chorizo Beefsteak: $13.00 - Argentine Near Me - Buenos Aires, C

Great place to try some bife de chorizo and chorizo! The waiter suggested the bite de chorizo as one of the most typical Argentine steak cuts. It was like butter with charred grill marks. The waiter asked how we wanted it done, and we explained "jugoso," which ended up being a lovely medium rare. I did have to add salt to the steak; that was all it lacked. The chorizo was flavorful and grilled to perfection. My dining partner tried the bonbon de morcilla, which was flavored with spices that tasted like cinnamon. The grilled veggies were fresh and lovely. The select wine available by the glass was smooth and full of flavor. Quite the nice restaurant and affordable, too. read more
