After being in Munich for a week, we were in the mood for a good steak. Searching on Yelp, I found…read moreEl Gaucho! It was just lovely. Antonio was our server and he was super helpful in both choosing the right wine, (they have A LOT to choose from!), and what to order. We started with the Caesar salad and baked goat cheese and then got right into the meats! I had the skewer, which was awesome. My hubby had the rib eye with TWO foie gras patties! COME HUNGRY! We were so full we could barely move. It's a great nice dinner option as a couple or with friends!

If you are a steak lover in Munich, El Gaucho am Viktualienmarkt is a top-tier choice.

Both were cooked to perfection. The ribeye had a deep, concentrated flavor, while the hanger was incredibly tender and juicy. ​The Star Topping: The ribeye came with an amazing butter herb garlic sauce along the top. It was rich, fragrant, and melted beautifully into the char of the steak--easily the highlight of the meal. ​The Sides: The grilled vegetables (corn, peppers, zucchini) were vibrant and had a great char. The fries were perfectly golden and crispy, and the Caesar salad was excellent, topped with massive, high-quality shavings of parmesan. ​The Drinks: Their Whiskey Sour was expertly balanced with a smooth foam--a great way to kick off the dinner. ​The service was professional and the atmosphere was vibrant. Whether you're looking for a classic aged ribeye or a specialty cut, you can't go wrong here. Outstanding!
