Made reservations on a weeknight at 8:30pm, right around when they open. Was promptly seated. Ambiance is very nice, more of a dim light, quiet setting, and the service is top notch. Menu has plenty of options and everything we ordered was pretty good, but not spectacular. As a matter of fact, the filet mignon we ordered came with two pieces, and one of them was a little too rare when we had asked for medium rare. We also ordered a ribeye, arugula salad, blood sausage appetizer, and some wine, and total came out to $101 USD. It was a pleasant experience but I probably won't be going back next time I am in BA. read more

Extraordinary dining experience. I can't imagine how it could get much better: the grass fed steak was bonkers delicious, sauces were nice touch, provolone appetizer was incredible. Excellent atmosphere, I felt like I was in another world. There was an hour wait but not a big deal, we just grabbed drinks next door, was a-ok with me. The service was a little inattentive, but not to the point where I'll deduct any stars for it, but they could improve on it. La Cabrera, you're the da' bomb. read more

Long wait, tourist-trap, pricier-than-most, poor service? Seems to be what I hear and read about this place BUT... none of this was true during my 2 visits. Key to really enjoy this popular, to the level of "hype", place in a busy touristy Palermo area is to know WHEN to go and WHAT to order. I was a solo traveler and I went there on a weekday at about 4pm (very late lunch) and Saturday 12.45 pm, the guidebook says they open at 12.30 but when I got there it was almost 25% full. Both times there was NO wait. Service was friendly at the normal pace like anywhere else in BsAs. (many US tourists probably would complain that the service is slow). I had much worse service than here in BsAs, in busy tourist areas in Europe and the US. So expect to wait a long time, and possibly not great service if you go during peak time, any day. Seating was a bit tight but standard for BsAs. The decor was cute and fun, if not kitschy. Bathrooms were nice. OK, how's the food? First, don't order the side dishes (fries, salad, etc) as you will find out why in a little bit. And for heaven's sake, don't do what this girl at my next table ordered: a mixed salad and grilled chicken...oy!!! Second, pick a cut and order LESS than what you think you will eat. My first visit, I had a Lomo (tenderloin) con pimiento (i think it was 700 grams--did not use my math at the time, oh well)-and this was my mistake as it was huge! Embarrassingly I could only ate half and had to request a doggie bag. (I know, it's uncool but I wouldn't be able to go to sleep throwing that away). The second visit I had Ojo (ribeye)--medium portion and I had a hard time finishing it. (I'm a big eater!) Both times I ordered medium rare (the way I usually eat steak) and both were of great cut and executed perfectly. I'm no steak expert but it seems they don't season steak at a parilla in BsAs. But if the quality is good, a little sprinkle of salt at your table would be more than enough if you need to. (my curious self questions how good this would be if the meat were marinaded the Korean way. Yum!) Now, they give you basic bread basket/butter, pate and several tiny cups of dips and sides (various sauces, mashed potato/squash, pickled veg, salads). Altogether makes ordering a side dish unnecessary (unless you are with a big group, I guess). Is all this expensive? I think not..Each meal cost me about 400 pesos, with tip and one bottle of Champagne (about US$34 current informal rate). The steak price list seems high but size and quality is totally more than worth it. I ate at a few other parilla of similar class, and at some basic grill counters in a shopping mall food court in BsAs, and the price here is actually not that different adjusting for quality, portion size, service and everything! Sharing between 2 or more people will certainly be much more economical if you try to save. All in all, this steak house is as good as it gets! I will make sure to go back next time I'm in BsAs. read more

This establishment was for sure a treat. The service, the decor, the sides, and the Dry Aged Steak were all top notch. Even their sausages/chorizos were top-notch compared to other Steakhouses where we tried some. Even the cutlery was above all other establishments I have visited. Sure it is 20-30% more then other high end Steakhouses, but I would say it is worth it. We had a relatively early reservation on a Friday being seated at 10PM. When we left at Midnight there was a large crowd of people outside waiting to be seated. If you are visiting Bs As, then this should for sure be one of your stops. read more

How come was this place listed among the best latinamerican restaurants? The asado is just OK, although the portions are huge, but the deal breaker is the service. The waitress are rude, There was a TV on that was really annoying. Could it be? In a high end restaurant in BA? A TV on? what is is this? The sport bar in the corner? In a city like BA there are hundreds of restaurants of better quality. Even more just 3 block from this I know of 5 better ones. read more

La Cabrera used to be one of the best restaurants in Buenos Aires and in Latin America - that place is long gone (the only thing left from its glory days are the prices). STAY AWAY FROM THIS PLACE - food is average and service is poor, yet the prices are in line with the top restaurants in the country. Frankly, i had much better meals for 25% of the cost in other parrillas within Palermo. COVID really destroyed this place - my guess is that La Cabrera will really drop in the rankings once reviewers can actually visit the place again. At this point it is running on memories. I visited this place late November 2021 (and on multiple occasions pre-COVID) read more

We went to two steakhouses in Buenos Aires, and of the two, this one was our favourite. Although we didn't have a reservation, they were able to seat us after a 35-minute wait (this was late on a Saturday night in May). Our table was in the back patio, which was nice even though it was chilly that evening. At first, service left something to be desired: We flagged down a passing server to order, and he gave us an "I'm not your server, but what do you want?" type of attitude. But our actual server eventually came by, and he was great. We ordered the bife de chorizo, ojo de bife napolitana, and papas fritas con cebollas confitadas. The fries came first, followed by the steaks and a bunch of complimentary sides. Everything was delicious. The steaks were generous in size, tasty, and cooked medium as we had requested. And the sides were excellent. Unfortunately, we barely touched the fries because we polished off and were full from the complimentary sides. I did get a sense that the place was catered to tourists, as some of the other reviewers had already noted. But it didn't affect our experience in any way. The meal was fantastic (and trumps all our little quips :P), and the ambiance lively and enjoyable. The price was also reasonable for two quality steaks, a side, and a bottle of wine. read more

Excellent food, our final lunch in Argentina. Great ambiance, excellent food and wines that are well paired with the food served. It's a nice place a bit more expensive but worth the quality and ambiance! I had the butterfly cut (800gr) and a bottle of Nieto Senetiner Malbec of course from Luján de Cuyo. Awesome lunch to close off 4 wonderful days in Buenos Aires!! read more

I suspected this place was an over-rated tourist-trap, well past its culinary prime, but still charging premium for inferior product and lackluster service. I was correct. Easily tied for the worst meal served in Argentina during a week-long trip (the second, also in BA), the meat (skirt steak) was chewy, sinewy and over-cooked. The 'free' sides were completely uninspired, as was the badly under-flavored french fries with caramelized onions and avocado/egg/tomato salad. While the ambience was endearing, our waiter was gruff and pushy while strangely apathetic. Earlier in the day, we visited a local parilla for lunch -- while much less 'fancy', everything was far superior (while being 1/3 the price). read more

This was a very good experience. The steak was absolutely perfect. The wine was smooth and complimentary (La Linda Malbec 2016) and the espresso with flan & dolce de leche ended the experience wonderfully.

This is THE place to splurge on a fantastic argentine steak. Yes, the wait can be upwards of two hours on weekends. It's best to get a reservation (VERY far in advance). I made the mistake of not having a reservation, and waited two hours, outside, during the winter. But I survived, and it was WELL worth the wait, plus they bring out meat samples to keep you excited and serve some free drinks. Once we were finally seated, we could instantly tell we were in for a treat. Our server was so warm and friendly and he guided us through the menu to make the dining experience simple and fun for us. We ordered some fine cuts of steak to share, a bottle of wine and some sides, and it was off to the races! They brought out so much food, and the steaks were huge. I thought that 3 steaks wouldn't feed 6 people but boy was i wrong! We were stuffed by the end. The meat was of the highest quality and I savored every last bite. It was a totally unique experience having someone cut up your steak for you in front of you. Finally, they serve free ice cream for dessert and hand out lollipops, which I think is a really cute touch. The price was very reasonable for a fancy steak dinner. I think it was about $30USD per person including the wine! Overall I highly recommend coming here if you are hitting all the best food in BsAs. read more

Nice place to try the best Argentinean steak! We came after the happy hour 40% off time because we'd read reviews of being rushed etc. and heard from locals that you get a lot of complimentary sides with your mains when you go outside of happy hour anyway. Arrived at 8.45 (they re-opened at 8.30pm after the happy hour sitting finished) and the place was already full. Put our names on the wait list and enjoyed free jamon, cheese, and water while we waited about 30 mins. Not too bad. Ordered the rack of ribs, one of the higher end striploin steaks, and an ensalata con huevo. Said no to the papas fritas that the waiter kept trying to add to our order but somehow ended up with them anyway (they're not worth the $16 they cost) A LOT of mini sides came out with our meals. This was a lotttt of food for 2 people but we persevered with the help of 2 glasses of fernét and coke (a local told us it helps with digestion and helps you eat more to get you through larger meals). Overall a nice pleasant experience and a must-do in Argentina - eating at a local steakhouse - however I'm sure you could find a similar quality restaurant at a fraction of the cost of La Cabrera's. read more

LC's reputation as a top BA parilla is well deserved. Steaks were mouthwateringly good, though portions were a little big. Sides were great! We are from the U.S. with limited Spanish, but the waiter was very accommodating. A must for anyone seeking an authentic Buenos Aires dining experience. read more

I had probably the worst steak I've ever eaten at this place. I ordered a ribeye, which is my favourite cut of beef, but I could barely saw through it with all my strength and a sharp steak knife. I sent it back because it was so bad. They gave me a tenderloin instead, which was edible but still not good. It also came with the insinuation that I didn't know my cuts of beef and that was why I didn't like the ribeye, which I did not appreciate. Added to the horrible meal was the fact that it was twice the price of anything else we had in Argentina, and we had to wait almost an hour for a table. I would never recommend this place. I give it a star because our server Emanuel was fantastic (and not just because it's the lowest rating I can give). But otherwise, the experience in this restaurant felt like a bad chain restaurant. Spend your money elsewhere. read more

Is it good? Yes, very good even. Is it worth paying three times as much as you would pay for an equally good steak at a less famous / touristy restaurant? No. That being said, the steak was excellent, as were the multitudes of free side dishes. Service is attentive, but I would say it's more for special occasions than every-day dining. read more

Chant it with me now: O-VER-RA-TED! Nevermind the fact that we waited 2.5 hours (after being told that the wait would be 40 minutes). I can even forgive the mediocre and overpriced wine list...but the steak? More expensive than the two best places we went while in Buenos Aires (Don Julio and La Carniceria), and neither tender nor juicy. Not cool, La Cabrera. Not. Cool. read more

This was our second time in BA and we now know to avoid Sante Fe Ave. and look to Soho Palermo for unique gifts and restaurants in the Palermo area. We found a great local wine shop who's owner spoke very good English and spent almost an hour giving us wine recommendations and teaching us about the local area. During this, she recommended that we go to La Cabrera. This restaurant was a "grill" in a world of "parillas", but the beef was excellent the wine selection was good and the interesting sides were a nice change. The service was excellent and the overall atmosphere was very italian, but the food was Argentinian. We had the lomo (filet mignon) and the ojo (ribeye). Both steaks were perfecto and cooked evenly throughout. The server actually made the recommendation that we just order the 1/2 portions, even thought that cut our check in 1/2 and the 1/2 portions were almost more than we could eat! The server also recommended a wine that was good for the price and not the most expensive. Overall, this was one of the best meals we had during our week here in BA. (BTW the server was "ChiChe", props to him!) The price is not cheap by Argentinian standards, about 800 pesos, but for what we got, I would expect to pay more in the U.S. not to mention the service that was excellent. The end of the meal included a complimentary glass of champagne, which was not included in the check and was just something that our server comped us as a gift. He spoke moderate English and we were grateful for his patience with our poor Spanish! Mucho Gusto La Cabrera! read more

Everyone told us to try this place, and man did it live up to the hype. My friend and I split a 600g steak, which was a good amount of food, and it was the best steak I've had in my life. Beyond the steak, you get served almost a dozen "sorpresas", little bites of sides which were uniformly delicious and added entertainment to the meal. The staff was engaging and friendly. I think it ended up being around US $30 for the meal, a fantastic value. You will probably need a reservation for this place, but keep in mind that La Cabrera runs on Buenos Aires time: our reservation was for 12:30 but the restaurant didn't open until 1. This was one of my favorite meals in South America, I can't recommend it enough! read more

Amazing place. The service was great and attentive to our needs. Most steakhouses in Argentina will cook your steak well-done by default, but our server was kind enough to ask before hand and provided a chart of the different preparations (blue - well done). The sides were great, but the steak was the highlight. I had a 15-day aged bone-in ribeye, which was cooked to perfection. You can ask for a side of chimichuri too. If you go before 8 (I suggest 7 PM), you'll get 40% off your ticket. A top tier steak meal for 2 (and a great bottle of premium wine) under $50 USD? Where else, but wonderful Argentina! read more

My husband and I went to La Cabrera for their "happy hour" (40% off) per a recommendation from our guide during a free walking tour. We got there around 6:45 and We had to wait outside until 7 to be seated (they were slightly rude but our waiter later made up for it) but they honored the order that people showed up in. We didn't realize how big the portions would be and ordered way too much! A starter (mozzarella, jamón crudo/prosciutto, tomato y arugula), a salad (avocado, tomato, hard boiled egg), and two steaks (Kobe wagyu and bife de chorizo). My Kobe had two steaks! It was way more flavorful and tasty than the other (take note that the other didn't actually come with chorizo...maybe I misunderstand what chorizo is). The salads/starters were good but needed a little salt or olive oil (i think this is just our American tastes vs Argentinean/planner tastes). They also gave us some little sides which were mostly really good (like the mashed potatoes and cheesy corn dish) with some being too sweet for our liking (again, I think this is just a cultural difference). We also had a bottle of wine...and all this came to about US$ 60. Totally worth it (especially considering we have enough leftovers for another meal). But my advice would be for two people order only one wagyu between the two of you, and MAYBE one salad or starter. read more

The food was amazing. The service was excellent. It was not expensive. I have no complaints! My boyfriend said it was overall the best dining experience he has EVER had. If I return to Buenos Aires, this will be my first stop! read more

40% off your bill. Here is what you need to know. They call it Happy Hour but it is quite different from what it means in US. The Happy Hour is from 7PM until 8:30PM. 7 days a week. You have to come to the restaurant at 6:45PM. While you wait to get seated you will peruse the menu and be ready to order as soon as they allow you in. You will have 1 hour and 30 minutes to enjoy your food and vacate the premises. If you arrive after seven you will not get the discount. Their half-portions can easily be split among two normal humans. The meat is absolutely top notch! Although if you generally order your meat well done or medium well you should probably just save your money and go to mcdonalds. Also i suspect that in the Palermo neighborhood there are other steak houses that are just as good but off the tourist trail. This place is rather expensive. read more

Went there for lunch on a Saturday at 3:00pm. Was seated in 20 min so no complaints there. Worst food and service I've had in years. Dont be fooled by positive reviews! Strike 1: Was seated at the back past the restrooms, in a room separate from the rest of the restaurant. Strike 2: Ordered an Ojo de Bife medium-rare. Meat came well done :( Strike 3: Halfway through my chewy and well-done steak the manager/chef and 3 hostesses sit LITERALLY in front of me to eat empanadas from another restaurant. They laugh out loud at how the cheese from the empanadas extend and drip onto their chins. Strike 4: When I complained to my waiter that it was disrespectful for them to eat in front of me he says "he understands" (note: no apology). He goes over to the chef/manager to let him know I wasnt happy. The chef looks over at me and SHAKES HIS HEAD and if to say "I dont give a f*&#". At that point i was done with the awful experience. Bonus: As I leave my half eaten meal and drink behind I hear the manager say "they need to consider the clients". lol. (see photos for proof) read more

There is one better joint in town, but they have their unique qualities which makes this one a fine substitute. Ambiance: We went to the "south" one (4 doors down from the other) and while it was busy it had a nice comfy, homey feel. Tables are well enough separated to make it a good place for a quiet romantic evening. Service: I felt a little more rushed here than I have elsewhere but then they had people out on the street being told it would be an hour wait as late as 11pm. Still, the waiter was friendly and gave good advice. Food: I got the aged tenderloin and it was full of flavor but just a tad tougher than I expected. Some of the cuts were huge - at the table next to us the slab was the size of a house brick. The sides on the menu were pretty ordinary, but here's the important part: THEY PROVIDE A MOUNTAIN OF SIDES ANYWAY. Seriously, they should let you know this, but there's nothing in the menu nor do they tell you. Like a Korean joint, there are modest-sized tubs of all sorts of different and very interesting tastings. You won't need to order more. We got a wonderful sweet potato puree, smooth mashed potato, green beans and mushrooms, apple sauce and a sweet roasted garlic side which was inspirational. Good selection of breads (about 6 or so bun-sized cuts and rolls) Price: Pretty high, but worth it for a special night and steak to remember. Go hungry and enjoy. read more

This place was recommended by multiple friends and had great reviews, so maybe my expectations were too high. One of the reviews mentioned a long wait, even with a reservation, but she was the only person to complain so I hoped that was an anomaly. Even so, I was mentally prepared to wait since we didn't have a reservation, but hopeful since it was a random Wednesday night. We got there and the hostess told us 30-40 minutes. A full 120 minutes later, and only after badgering the hostess because I noticed that the people who complained the most were seated first (regardless of when they had arrived), we were seated. Then the waiter ignored us while two tables who had been seated after us got their food. And yes, we motioned to him. He looked the other way every time. After all that, I was really hoping for the food to make it worth it. We ordered a chorizo steak and an aged NY steak. Both were good and cooked as we had requested. But were they worth it? DEFINITELY NOT. I can cook just as well with good meat on my grill at home. And while it was cheap compared to a US steakhouse, it's probably one of the most expensive places in Buenos Aires. Finally we were finished, got the check and gave our credit card to the waiter to pay. He then kept the card and had us sit and wait for another 40 minutes. 40!?! The only reason somebody needs a credit card for that long is to steal your identity. Needless to say, I'll be checking my bank statement later this month. Save your time and energy and go somewhere else. Until La Cabrera becomes unpopular enough that they have to start trying again, it's a miserable experience. read more

We just finished our long awaited feast at this local landmark, which has been recommended again and again. With good reason: this place has a warm and informal ambience and a menu that can please any palate. We started with salads-both the arugula salad and the avocado with tomato salad were wonderful. The steaks were both tender and deeply flavorful- we had the rib eye and the tenderloin but there can't be a bad choice on the menu. Great Argentinian wine and a complimentary glass of champagne were wonderful palate cleansers. The meal was superb in every way-and on balance it wasn't all that expensive. If you want "the" steakhouse experience in this beautiful city, La Cabrera can't be beat. read more

This is one of the go to steakhouses in Buenos Aires. Since Argentinians eat late, they offer a discount between 6:30-8 pm. At this time you will find many foreigners and tourists. The portions are big and the steaks cut like butter. You can definitely share a steak. My pics are of the half portion steak. So if you're going with a friend order one steak and another item and share. The service is just ok, nothing special. Everyone is moving quickly to put food on the table. read more

La Cabrera has some amazing cuts of meat. The service is good, as it should be for what they charge you and the dinning room is lovely. I steered clear for many years writing it off as a place for tourists but I've come around, it took me a few years. Tourists do all go here, but that's because its so darn delicious. All the little cups of garnishes are nice but mainly for show. Don't be fooled, come here only for the meat. If you have a club la nación card you get a discount! read more

This place is WAHOU!! service is one of the best I've ever had, the waiters are simply perfect! Not overwhelming, present just as needed. The food... get ready for some all the most Argentinian meat cuisine! I didn't venture trying the intestines but my colleagues enjoyed it quite well. I had the tortilla Espanola (DELICIOUS) and the salad with hearts of artichokes , everything tasty like heaven!!! They brings little attentions throughout the meal and add-on to any plate so don't order too much food! The ambiance was pretty interesting as well, vintage products all around, theme of aviation, the place isn't huge inside but you have this cosy and almost at-home feeling! It's a must try in Buenos Aires and don't forget to book a table in advance or call to check availabilities. Disfruta! read more

After hearing from several people about the amazing steaks at La Cabrera, I had to check it out for myself. We showed up at 645 for the 7 PM opening of the restaurant as we heard about their "happy hour" which is 40% off the entire menu (including wine!). Service began with complimentary bread and we were then given some pate which was quite good. As we weren't overly hunrgry given our prior meal at Don Julio, we "only" had the bife de chorizo and ojo de bife. The bife de chorizo is similar to a NY strip and the ojo de bife more like a ribeye. Both cuts were excellent, although I preferred the ribeye. Both steaks were prepared exactly as I requested and came with numerous sides. While somewhat expensive for Argentine standards, the food and service were both excellent and I can see why this is the highest rated parilla in the country. The happy hour prices were an added bonus to a great meal. read more

Excellent steak,appetizers and service! Cabrera "Sur" not norte . Food was superb as were waiters , great ambiance. Definitely recommend.

Having (in my mind) perfected the art of cooking a steak, I was somewhat skeptical of the near mythological status Argentinian steaks have. However La Cabrera has a 40% off happy hour from 18:30-20:00 (you must ask for the check before 20:00) which lowered the risk of potential disappointment. The restaurant had an intimate and quintessential steakhouse feel with a refreshing almost amount of English being thrown around at other tables highlighting the favor it holds with tourists. The empeñadas served before the main course are the best I've had in Buenos Aires as they are fried, rather than baked, contributing a delightful crispy lightness contrasted to the succulent deeply rich beef interior. Served with an array of sauces, one found themselves savoring each bite as almost wholly distinguishable experiences from others as the characteristics of each sauces' only commonality was it's utter deliciousness. When the beef arrived, the aroma was nearly overwhelming and the mastery of the griller readily apparent. The ribeye we ordered, distancing itself from the unfortunately medium well steaks one might find at other establishments, came as an appropriately rested medium-rare nearly all the way through with a textural char that blessed each bite with a baptism of smokiness. The steak was similarly served with a variety of chimmichurri's. Unfortunately I cannot even recall the sides (if there even were any) as they could only have been considered breathers to the bites of steak which still haunt my memories. The wine list was extensive but included many bottles of Malbec which pair perfectly with the subtle gaminess of the meat. A single ribeye was more than enough for two and we walked out paying considerably less than one might pay at a similar stateside steakhouse. read more

A local friend brought us here - as my first meal in Argentina after 8 years - it was good. My friend did the ordering but picked costillas and Lomo - both were fantastic. They also bring you a lot of different sides which is interesting - I never experienced that an a parilla. To top it off we had a bottle of Malbec. Per my girlfriend this place has the best Morcilla out of all the places we sampled morcilla from. As my friend told me - this is typically a tourist place but it's so good that you will find lots of locals that come here too. Apparently you must make a reservation, because there was a long wait. I wouldn't say this is where to go if you are looking for an authentic parilla but if you want a nice upscale experience and decent cuts (compared to US standard) id say it's worth trying. read more

I'm not sure how to express how good this beef was. I had the house Malbec with medium sized Rib Eye steak and could not have been more pleased. How is this beef so tender? How is this wine so tasty? read more

First, we were a little confused as to what La Cabrera we were in...as there are two very close to each other - so be sure to be sure you are going where you want to be. Definitely a bit pricey and touristy (not too many Argentines dining here as far as I could tell), but the appetizer slab was awesome, and the steak was very, very good. Nice, cozy spot for a classic Argentine steak experience - and service was on the ball. The cattle from the Pampas are a different breed and are butchered younger, so you can only get this beef experience in B.A. - would definitely return. read more

I enjoyed my time at La Cabrera but I do think it's a little overrated and overpriced. For starters after 2 weeks of traveling around Argentina, this was the highest table charge/cubierto (52 pesos) of any restaurant I went to in Argentina. Whatever. I went for lunch because I realized there wasn't much to do in Palermo so waiting around for the happy hour special wasn't worth it. The menu was easy enough to follow and I ordered the medium sized bife de ojo medium rare. I also ordered the provoleta at the suggestion of a friend as an appetizer and then a side of fries with grilled onions. The steak was juicy and cooked right, but no seasoning. I found that to be the case throughout Argentina. As much as I hate salt, I needed to salt and definitely pepper my food there. Also, I thought this steak was a bit too fatty and the marbled ribeye didn't get cooked down as much. The provoleta isn't awesome. As much as I'm a cheese fan, I just thought it was too rich and once it gets lukewarm it's not worth eating anymore. The side of fries were very very good. There's a bread basket but it was just meh. I also had a half bottle of wine that all in all wasn't very good either. In retrospect, I should have just ordered a bottle and taken the rest home. The lollipop tree was fun to snack on as I'm not much of a dessert person. The service was fine, it was very busy at 4pm. There are some vendors who make their way in the restaurant to sell their wares. The bathrooms are quasi-unisex. read more

I would say La Cabrera may have been closer to 3 stars, but thanks to the wait for our table on a Tuesday night, have to give it a 2.5..Morcilla was good but my entrana was overcooked and I had requested medium rare. Better steak houses in Puerto Madero. There is also a good one near the financial district on La Córdoba. read more

Very expensive & long wait time but interesting place with nice presentation. Wouldn't go again as good was good but not amazing
