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.

Im glad we did because this made our trip to Mexico City so amazing! The drinks and food were all presented so beautifully and were delicious. The service was also top notch as Ruben gave us so information about all the dishes and was so patient with us. We got to sit on the patio on the second floor and it was a great day to people watch and enjoy a nice dinner.

Being shut down in Mexico can have a plethora of reasons that aren't actually associated with food quality or cleanliness. So when it does open again, please visit it! Because I sincerely doubt hygiene had anything to do with it's current legal situation. :. This place is a lovely Argentinian restaurant that specializes in great steak! If you can, I think sitting near the window is the best place to be, as it's usually quieter and a bit more romantic (ie. candles, softly whispering couples). They have both English and Spanish menus which are usually written on large boards that they bring to your table. This place is certainly a bit more creative and fun in their presentation of food and set up. All meals come with in-house baked bread with rosemary and a couple of oils to dip in. As you would expect for the Polanco, the quality of the food and selection of wines/tequilas are good, and the service is generally pretty decent. I would definitely recommend keeping to the steaks and salads at this place. I found that most of the pastas are fairly good quality but sometimes can land on a bit on the dull side of things. That being said, the desserts are superb and I really enjoyed going to this place. [ TIP: However you normally like your steak, in Mexico ask for it to be cooked one level more e.g. if you like 'rare', ask for 'medium rare', or even 'medium' if they don't know what 'medium rare' is, as 'rare' will come 'blue'. This only applies in Mexico City. In the cities/locations where a lot of American and Canadian tourists can be found, then you order as you would in Canada/America.]

A very unpleasant experience, I came to this restaurant, the environment is okay, the waiter recommended me ribs, not the traditional meaning of steak, all have 6 big black bones, at this moment, I feel like an animal, the ribs are hard to gnaw and chew. Not for romantic couples. The worst part was that the ribs were too burnt and badly grilled. There was some black carbon on the surface of the bone and it felt like I was eating ashes. I already reacted to the waiter, Mass Fuego, comidasido. After eating it, I went to the restroom to get diarrhea myself before I even went to check out.
