I'm not usually one to leave reviews, but this place needs some serious work. The meat was just average, and the flavor was pretty bland. The chef definitely needs to use some Argentinian salt, that would make a world of difference. The lasagna and guacho burger were pretty good, but the sides were just okay. They didn't quite reach the level of a great steakhouse. Overall, it had the potential to be a really great restaurant, but it just didn't quite make the cut. Servers were very friendly. read more

I really cannot figure this name out. Is it a play on words? It's a play on words that doesn't really make sense. I know there's lots of meat, thus Argentinian Meat, perhaps 'meet' is a noun in this case? As in short for meeting place? I'm sure I'll ponder that one in the wee small hours whilst attempting to drift into slumber, but meanwhile I'll tell you about the restaurant itself. Business districts are tricky when it comes to food. Take Spinningfields in my home city of Manchester for example. During the evening, the likes of Nando's and Carluccio's are desolate, with the occasional ball of tumbleweed whistling through with the breeze. But by day these places are crammed with suits. It's those after-work hours that are tricky. Argentinian Meet at the bottom of Brunswick Street however has managed to pack them in, conquering the difficult post-5pm slot and having done so since its opening in 2006. But what of the food? The restaurant claims that unlike its owners, all the beef is Argentinian. The staff happen to be Hispanic and South American but we're not eating them, it's just an interesting fact. How about the vino? Only three Argentinians on the list there I'm afraid, and they come with a high price tag. The rest are just your average Pinot Collapsos you'd find in your local pub, nay, Thresher's even. All the dishes here come with a fresh and colourful little side salad which is crispy and refreshing enough to take the edge off the spicy mains and clean the palate, and chimichurri, a traditional Argentinian accompaniment dip. It's nice. If you're veggie you'll be REALLY disappointed. You've been assigned to the rudimentary pesto spaghetti or the Portobello mushroom lasagne with spinach. Hardly Argentinian, really. Still, if you're a pescetarian/vegequarian like me you're in for a little more of a treat with whole lobster, grilled tuna, salmon and cod. The tuna cooked with chilli, garlic and coriander butter is delightfully cooked and melts in the mouth. You might notice a little hit and miss vibe with the old steaks though, the whole reason you'd come to an Argentinian place. They have a habit of tenderising the meat, such as ribeye, and in bashing the bejaysis out of it they also bang away the flavour and the thickness, thus resulting in something stretched and disturbing. Kind of like that guy attached to the fish hooks in Hellraiser. Oh god, I've just put you off tenderised steak forever. Nay mind. The steak here might not be as good as Gaucho Grill, but heck, they do follow orders and cook it to your exact tastes. The ribeye, however Frank from Hellraiser it might be, will be as medium rare, rare or well done as you asked. Simples. Service is good and while you might be privy to a lot of phone calls about Monday meetings and targets and 'but he's not pulling his weight in terms of the Johnson account', the atmosphere's pretty bustling too. And there's even chips. Well whaddya know! read more

A small glitch on arrival at 8.30pm on Saturday night (28th May 2011) was handled reasonably smoothly by the friendly staff despite the restaurant already being quite full our booking had already been marked off and allocated to another diner. However a table was found within 3-4 minutes and we were able to order. Starters arrived quickly and efficiently, served with a smile, however the quality of the food was, it quickly became apparent, not up to scratch. Our Empanada de Humita (a sweetcorn pastry wrap) bore more resemblance to a microwaved Ginsters pasty than a Latin American treat. The Provoletta a la Parilla was equally disappointing; it arrived in the form of soggy cheese on toast. We were assured both starters were prepared on the grill I fear they were not. We fared little better with our main courses. A 8oz rib-eye steak had good flavour, possibly over-seasoned, but definitely over-cooked. Our Parrillada (a mixed grill of different meats) first arrived cold and had to be sent back. The same plate was reheated and returned by this point our rare meat was now well-done, no residual pinkness at all, and the other meats were dry and leathery. Chips on the side were standard catering chips, not home-made, but cooked OK. The accompanying sauce was tasty. The wine list was good but over-priced our Mendoza Malbec was very tasty but this was a small compensation for what turned out to be a rather disappointing visit. A restaurant specialising in meat should do just that and Meet did not. Perhaps the menu could be reduced and simplified with the focus on doing a smaller number of meat dishes exceptionally well. We wished we had stayed in the Restaurant Bar and Grill just slightly further up Brunswick Street. read more

5 stars for the steak, the steak was the best I have had in years. Huge, melt in your mouth delicious slab of steak. Service wasn't too good and we had a 45min wait for a table but was so worth it. When I'm back in Liverpool I will be pre booking a table for sure. The only other downside is they don't do wine or champagne by the glass only a horrible house wine which was like vinegar. read more

They were excellent at making steaks. My main dish was 8oz steak, and it tasted insanely good!!! The best steak I have eaten in a year. The service was efficient and fast. The staff was friendly. The price was valuable. It was Friday night, so the restaurant was a bit noisy and out of control. Fortunately I had made a reservation, so I strongly advice that making a reservation before you go. read more

Well, I think its a very great place to go if you're looking for some juicy and extremely tasteful beef. I really like it. My only complaint is about the music, it's too loud and makes the people talk louder, I can't hear what the person next to me is saying without them having to yell. Please for the love of god lower the music, thanks :) read more

If you are after a nice juicy steak with full of flavours then Meet is the place to go to. I visited this establishment on a Saturday night and it was extremely busy and pretty cramped. But the atmosphere seemed nice and the manager and his staff were prepared to give their customers good service. The menu has a nice varied selection but visiting a Argentinian steak house I thought it was only right id go the whole hog and ordered the 24oz sirloin steak! I ordered it with a jacket potato and it was also served with some tasty salad. As a dedicated carnivore (and as a former chef) I do enjoy a fine steak. Have to say it was one of the best steaks I have ever had. I felt that was the opinion of the rest of the party sitting on my table (they all ordered steaks) as we thoroughly enjoyed our huge 24 oz steaks. I honestly thought it would have been too much for me but the quality of the sirloin was excellent and it was completely finished. Excellent food will be back again. read more

Went here for my birthday and the steak was first class. The price is a little expensive but it's worth it as the food is fantastic. The restaurant itself is quite small, so I felt like I was only stopping for lunch. But I didn't care, the steak was ridiculously good. read more
