The 500g ribeye was good, so was the caesar salad. Croutons were stale unfortunately- major no no. One major fault also is they do not have a private restroom for handicapped people. Usually a two passenger would be all right like ruby Jacks . The hotel restrooms are about 75-100 m away from the restaurant which is inconvenient. The reason for the three stars? We had a fly buzzing around our sides. And this is the first time i experienced a fly in a first class resto. The manager during lunch time, Rose saved the day as she was apologizing profusely for the faux pas. A renovation for two one -passenger restrooms might be a step in the right direction in improving the experience. read more

I had been to a couple of chain steak restaurants in the area and was not impressed. Went to La Cabrera and it's definitely on a different level. Had a wonderful medium rare piece of meat and the service was top notch. My first high end dining experience in the Manila area and enjoyed it immensely. Served with a variety of small accompanying add ones that are varied, some will suit your palate some wont but can be a nice combo with your steak. read more

Excellent place. Great food and the service was amazing. Thank to Gilbert for the attention. Real Argentina food. Try the chichulines!!!

My boyfriend and I were looking for a spot for lunch and decided to come here because we love, love, love a good steakhouse. Upon entering, it was pretty empty so we were seated right away. We ordered two waters (be careful and specify if you'd like mineral/bottled or regular water) and decided to share the 15 days wet aged grass fed rib beef (medium rare) and the chorizo carbonara linguini. Our server asked if we'd like to have the dishes come out together or come out as they are prepared, and we asked for the dishes to come out together. Unfortunately they did not come out together and we received the pasta way after the beef. By the time the linguini came out, we were way too full we had to ask them to box the linguini for takeaway. Anyways, the aged beef was tender and flavorful, although a bit over cooked (more like medium instead of medium rare). What I enjoyed about the dish were the sides! There was everything from mashed potatoes, corn salsa, oven roasted garlic (omg the best part of the dish!!!), caramelized onions to pickled capers. It was delicious when you combine the sides and eat it with the steak. If you are in the area and would like a treat (it wasn't exactly cheap), stop by for the beef. I would pass on the pasta because it wasn't memorable. For reference, the beef was about 3490 pesos and the linguini was 650 pesos. Not a cheap lunch but I don't regret going. read more

La Cabrera - The star of the meal... oven roasted garlic! Spread this on your aged beef and savor each bite!! - Argentine Near Me - Makati, NCR

A nice discovery of a Argentine SteakHouse in the Philippines... which is a rare find. Had no idea this was so close the Makati Shangri-La. Place is quaint and food overall is very very good. Service is solid. A few items missing and or options for signature items like a Parillada (Latin BBQ) where you basically get a sampling of various cuts of meat and sausage as well as sweetbread etc. This place is a must stop and good for clients or social gathering... Really nice spot. read more

Very good restaurant for steaks of argentine style, and vines they provide are from there. It also good is good combination with beef. Inside environment you can feel of argentine. Good for business, family, and friend use. Negative point is only to their limited variation of vines, argentine. Happy hours 17:00 - 18:30, your ordering in this hours 20% discount will be applied. read more

Had the day to wait for a car to the airport on my 3rd day staying at the Shangri La Edsa. Stumbled across this steakhouse while reading the hotel literature and thought I would give it a try. Steakhouse in the Philippines??? How good could it be??? Man......blown away. Has to be one of the best steak meals I have ever had and on the second floor of a hotel in Manila. Actual goosebumps at the first bite of the ribeye. Absolutely perfect and each side dish and salad side dish and steak side dish tasted like whoever made it wanted people to say 'WOW'. Well.....WOW!! Had to have desert and a cup of their coffee and the dulce de leche with crisped meringue was another goose bump moment. Pricey! But by US standards of fine steakhouses very comparable pricing. Bravo to the team there and I'm now laying down for a nap! Happy read more

We came to this restaurant for lunch on a Wednesday after shopping at the mall. They gave us one lunch menu to begin with so we were very confused on the pricing and they weren't sure about what they had and what they didn't. We proceeded to order and since they were out of the first option on the menu the person in our party ordered the skirt steak instead. lo and behold they brought out some deep fried cheesy monstrosity?? We pointed out the obvious discrepancy and asked what had happened. The confounded waiter didn't take the dish away even when we asked that it be removed from the table so we didn't have to look at it. Long story short. We threw away 50 bucks on a deep fried meat block that we had never ordered and the staff and restaurant refused to right their wrong. Place is cute but not worth the terrible service and ruined evening. Skip it. read more

This is definitely a place for steak lovers. But it's not a simple steakhouse. The difference is that the Argentinian atmosphere is everywhere at La Cabrera. Prepare yourself to be welcomed with a warm "buenas tardes" or "buenas noches". Yep, the staff speak spanish just to keep the vibe. The decor based on old objects complete the scenery. Antique sepia photos, mirrors, violins and a sewing machine really make us feel in old Buenos Aires. Since you're enjoying your time and space travel, go straight to the point and ask for an Argentinian wine and a Bife de Chorizo (striploin). All the steaks are served with cold and hot side dishes - and the best thing is that you can choose as many as you can and refill them unlimitedly! So prepare yourself to eat a lot! My favourite ones are the black olive puree, the caramelized garlic, the chimichurri and the couscous. For the meat, I also recommend the Asado del Centro (prime short ribs), which was very juicy and tender. Although the meat doesn't come from Argentina, it's grilled just the Argentinian style. And it's a fact: Argentinians know how to prepare the best steaks in the world! You cannot leave La Cabrera without trying their wonderful desserts with dulce de leche. Argentina is known also for having the most tasty dulce de leche ever. The ingredient is really part of the country's gastronomic identity. So try have a "Panqueque de Dulce de Leche" to conclude your journey through Argentinian cuisine :) You won't regret it. read more

If your looking for perfectly cooked steaks this is the place. We had the 15 days wet aged grass fed ribeye which was flavorful and juicy. Prices are expensive so recommend arriving early to take advantage of their 30% off Happy Hour rates menu. read more

Such service and attention. We felt like royalty. The steak was perfect and having sample sides is a unique concept. It also helps you not overeat which is easy to do on vacation. The best part for me was the caprese salad. read more

Other reviewers has been raving about La Cabrera's steaks and unlimited side dishes -- I'm not here to talk about that. Haha. I have to admit, I didn't know that La Cabrera's specialty are steaks. I've already put it in my must tries in the future. MUST. TASTE. THAT. STEAK. Anyway, I'm here for the coffee and ambiance. Even non-diners can see how beautiful La Cabrera's interior is. You can see it from the outside, it's almost like its straight out of old photos, like the ancestral homes we see on televisions, the kind that has been modernized but still with the touch of the past. Really pretty and good for cozy dinners and dates. Now, coffee. Caffeine lovers would recognize this brand: Lamill. Yep. They serve Lamill coffee and teas. It's one of those brands famous for their coffee beans. And they have it here! La Cabrera offers french pressed coffee and the usual ones. Too bad they close early, their coffee is be one of those things I'd like to have after Friday night drinks for sobering up. I recommend the cafe con leche! read more

Wow!!! What a wonderful experience. I fortunately have had the opportunity to visit Argentina a number of time and always made a point of stopping at the La Cabrera in Palermo. Definitely one of my favorite restaurants. And the La Cabrera Manila doesn't fall short. I can tell you this if you're looking for an authentic Argentino restaurant while in The Philippines you've hit the jackpot! I can honestly say The food was nothing short of spectacular As well as the service. read more

My family and I went here for Mother's day since we just love steak. I think La Cabrera is right up there with the likes of Mamou. However, it gives you a new way to eat and experience steak because it comes with UNLIMITED sides. What does this mean? Well, for ever steak you order (we like the Chorizo 500g), you get a set of little cups of cold and hot side dishes. From tapenade, BBQ corn and bacon, sauteed mushrooms, caramelized garlic, to mashed sweet potato, pumpkin, salads, and chimichurri sauce, you have like 20 of them all over your table! The best part is that if you find a favorite, you can keep ordering that same one. Of course, all of them taste delicious with the steak. And after that hearty meal, end with one of their Dulce de Leche desserts and you'd really feel like you had an Agentinian feast! read more

Was looking for some place to eat on a Sunday night in Makati. Walked by everyday heading to the office and it was always filled. My luck it was empty and I made a stellar choice. Attentive service and amazing food! Kind of pricey but well worth the money. Amazing steak, cooked to perfection and plenty of sides. Will be back! read more
