We had the Ranchera and the steak was cooked perfection the cream of corn served for the soup course was amazing. Seriously so creamy a little sweet, a little garlic key and topped off with little crunchies that tied everything together. The empanadas on the first course were really, really tasty a little sweet from reasons, but also a little salty from the olives, a great combination. The dessert was a flan and Man old man when I tell you, it was so good words don't do it justice. This place is beautiful and the courtyard for your kids to enjoy while you're having dinner. You can see the farm animals in a little tiny orchard that makes the place so beautiful. Don't hesitatethe cost is incredibly affordable for the quality of the place.

Cambalache is an Argentine steakhouse, which is reflected in the style of grilling their meats (over an open flame, which can be viewed at the back of the restaurant), and the service of the meat itself (a La plancha, at the table). We chose the ribeye (600-700g) to share. It was perfectly cooked to medium temperature, and sliced for us tableside. A beautiful cut of meat, and very flavorful. The side dishes were tasty, too (the soufflé potatoes are a signature, and they're fun to try/share). Speaking of tableside prep, I highly recommend saving room for the strawberries Romanoff - our server spent about 20 minutes whipping a combination of vanilla Haagen Dazs, Grand Marnier, cream, and fresh-sliced strawberries into a fluffy concoction that was divinely yummy. Our youngest diner insisted on coming back to Cambalache a second time, a week later, just to have it again. It's not on the regular postre menu, so be sure to ask your server about it.

I conducted my search, finding a few places online trying to locate a good spot in a city I've never visited. Gardela stood out immediately because of their communication, kindness, and dedication to making this event extra special for him and his friends. They truly created and planned the perfect event for the group and I truly could not be more grateful. Onto the food (their honest reviews)! They said it was a 11/10 dining experience overall. The food was incredible and amazing and these are some food critics traveling from major foodie cities. They planned a beautiful menu with Chicken Tortilla Soup, a variety of Empanadas, Picaña Steak and Skirt Steak, and Peasant Salad and Fries as sides. They said the soup was super delicious and flavorful. They said the steak was absolutely phenomenal and tender, it was very high quality meat. Also the salad really stood out as it was super fresh and crisp. Then they plated a beautiful dessert assortment as well as well as special happy birthday and bachelor messages to make the celebration extra special. The cocktails were also super delicious as well. They left the meal with their hearts and bellies very full. From everything, from the planning, to the the presentation of food, the service, and food quality, the team at Gardela went above and beyond. I really could not have picked a better place and now I am jealous because I need to go try some of the steaks because they had my mouth watering! Overall, I would highly recommend going to this restaurant. They said they were seated in a private room too so it made the experience even more special. My sincerest thank you to the entire team at Gardela for making this event unforgettable!

The first night we focused on the steaks and they were absolutely delicious. Great quality meat, perfectly cooked, and full of flavor. The next night we came back and tried the pizza, which had a very authentic South American flavor and was just as enjoyable in a completely different way. The brisket tacos were also really good! Service was very good throughout, friendly, attentive, and professional without being overbearing. The wine list is extensive and impressive, with lots of excellent options from Argentina and Chile that pair perfectly with the food. Prices were very reasonable for the quality. Reservations are highly recommended because the restaurant gets busy. Another plus is the location, it is within walking distance of many hotels, including the Four Points by Sheraton. Excellent spot and absolutely worth repeating, clearly proven by the fact that we did.

After many positive reviews on TripAdvisor and other media outletslike FourSquare I was so…read moredisappointed with the food. Avoid the grief!!! 1. Alambre de Churrasco -found a piece of plastic. 2. Steak with side of salad and mash potatoes- ordered well done, it was medium rare and lacked flavor and was a bit tough to cut even with steak knives, mash potatoes were dry, my salad consisted one large slices of steak style tomato, one slice of onion on top of iceberg lettuce w/ any dressing or olive oil. The mash was reheated. 3. My opted for salmon- it was raw undercooked and it was most likely frozen. Anyone who thinks this place deserves 4 stars has truly a low standard for quality food. You are better off somewhere else.

We order some Italian wine and then we order some Chito's ( cow small intestine) which in most restaurants comes like two little pieces on a small plate. This dish came out of the kitchen on a cooking grill and was so large to feed both of us. The flavor was delicious everything was well well done and exceptionally good. We also ordered Churrasco Bife de chorizo and arrachera. The steaks were very tender flavorful and extremely good flavor. I will highly recommend this place to anybody who he wants to eat Argentinian food in the coapa area. I will come back to this restaurant every time I can. The pricing was very moderate and very good and economic for the amount of food that you get. Highly recommend this place

The Starter Game: They kick things off with a bean dip and a lineup of sauces. Pro-tip: Go for the white sauce, but proceed with caution--it's hella spicy and easily the best of the bunch. The Main Event (Combo for 2): We split the "Combo for 2" which featured: * The Beef Broth: It comes with a tray of condiments to customize the flavor. I wouldn't usually order this, but it was surprisingly savory and a great warm-up. * NY Strip & Skirt Steak: The meat arrives rare, but here's the best part: it's served on a scorching hot slab. Since we like our steaks cooked differently, we were able to sear each bite to our own perfect temperature right at the table. * The Truffle Fries: Two words--ABSOLUTELY DIVINE. Don't skip these. The Vibe: The restaurant is located on the first floor (one story up) and has a great atmosphere. Easy to book, delicious food, and interactive cooking? A total win.
