Paris' third arrondissement continues to blow me away every time I visit the city, and Clasico…read moreArgentino is no exception. Not unlike the rest of the district, it's simple, but wonderfully so. Star 1: How were the service and atmosphere? Ne parlent pas français? No problem. Two kind gentlemen who I assume are the owners/operators are on hand, and they were more than accommodating with an english menu to boot. The location is divine, and the atmosphere comfortable regardless of what the weather looks like outside. Star Granted. Star 2: How were the portions relative to the cost? €4,00 is admittedly on the expensive side when it comes to an individual empanada, but not only is this Paris, but we're talking about a speciality cuisine type that fetches a premium essentially anywhere outside of South America. That being the case, and considering that these were pretty damn big emps, 4EUR is a fair price. Have a look: http://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?userid=OKX-V5j_qfuOebeHeWGrHg&select=fVVwOlvdmSmZoS2as0cxGg Star Granted. Stars 3 and 4: How was the food? To be honest with you, I don't exactly recall which two empanadas I got, but one was for sure a chicken medley and another beef of some sort. What you should know is that both were very, very good, and I very much enjoyed the baked yet flakey outside as opposed to the alternative deep fried option found across the globe. Single Star Granted. Star 5: Would you eat here every day if you could? Have a South American craving in the city of love and lights? Clasico Argentino has you covered. Go here. Star Granted.

Very friendly servers (even when your preferred language is English) & delicious food. There were plenty of other patrons, but we were able to grab a table without a reservation. Very welcoming experience overall. We started with empanadas which we were so, so good. 100% try those if you come by--I really enjoyed the spinach one. For entrees, both I and my boyfriend ate the steak which was delicious--wine and cocktails too. Certainly would return to keep trying more of the food.

This is from our visit in March 2018…read more We didn't have reservations so we got in line early for a dinner table. We were the first two in line so when the doors opened at 8 - we were able to get a small table. The restaurant is located behind the bar and is very small - it seats only 20-30 people. However, if you're craving steak in Paris - it's probably one of the best Argentine steakhouses around. The theme is very Heavy Metal and the menu has a lot of sexual innuendos so if you're rather conservative then you might have a problem but then again you probably won't be staying on this side of the city. The service was excellent - we had one waitress for the entire room but she was on top of everything! Best service we had for our entire Paris trip! The food was decent - not the best steak but not the worst. The portions on the steak were small but the portion size for the potatoes was huge. Make sure to get the extra sauce assortment and try them all with both the steak and potatoes. I ordered a chicken salad which came a little too drenched in dressing - not sure if that was normal or they thought I'd like it that way being from the states. Creme brûlée was decent. We also ordered empanadas as an appetizer - they resembled a pair of testicles - we got a kick out of that! In summary, decent food (maybe a little $$ for the quality) but the service was excellent and the theme was entertaining - heavy metal and sex. We bought a t-shirt to remember our night.

The Black Dog may be just down the block from Paris' legendary jazz clubs, but make no mistake…read moreabout it: this is a true heavy metal bar. (I think? They apparently serve up Argentine style steakhouse specialties and run specials on empanadas) The beer selection is somewhat limited, but the prices are cheap for the area (all the more so during their happy hour from 17:00-21:00, where a pint of a local lager runs just €3). The music is a mix of old school thrash metal and newer death metal/black metal tracks, with a small bar area and dining space upstairs, smokers patio outside, and larger area in the basement. Throw on your vintage Exodus t-shirt and headbang the night away.

The line outside was filled with people picking up cones of their fabulous ice cream, but I was craving warm, savory goodness and their empanadas had my name all over them. It's very hard choosing from the 6 different varieties but I went with the spinach and cheese and the chicken. They were both great but the chicken was far superior but that dough, my god, it's all about the dough! It's flaky, golden, doughy, buttery perfect. I actually think I'm going to pick up that cookbook of theirs just for that dough recipe. NB: They also sell wine to go to compliment your picnic in the parks and if it's raining, you could eat your empanadas at the cozy counter instead.

We started with the pate de campange served with cornichon, as well as the obligatory escargot. Both were great starters, but wish they weren't out of the bone marrow (yum). I had a wonderful beouf tartare. The beef was superbly fresh and seasoned more the French style. They offered Tabasco and Worcestershire if I wanted it, but it was perfect as-is. T My wife had the onglet and it was divine. Perfectly med rare on the French scale, and again, perfectly seasoned. The frites on both dishes as well as the salad were great. As we got to know the staff, now our friends Liloo, Mahmoud, and Otto, we were chatting it up for a bit. They gave us some Chartreuse at the end of the meal on the house. Never had it before but it was like sipping an herb garden. So delish. Thank you my friends for looking out for us and helping us have a wonderful meal.
