    Pastel de Papas con Ensalada Verde
    Ava

    I absolutely loved every dish. The empanadas were great! Loved the kale one. The burrata was fresh. My main dish had well prepared meat & mashed potatoes. Overall I recommend to others who was Argentine food

    Ribeye steak
    Nikhil S.

    Empanadas are good.. just quite expensive for what it is. $6 a piece. Friends got the steak sandwich which was pretty good. Flavors and crisp on the bread were good.. only gripe was the actual meat portion of it was very small... not worth $24 to be honest. I got the 16 ounce ribeye steak for $42.. and I was left VERY disappointed.. I asked for medium rare and the steak was very unevenly cooked.. some parts were super rare and some were medium rare.. and it doesn't seem like they rendered the fat on the ribeye at all.. very gross/fatty to eat.. I have left photos and you be the judge.. but overall a very subpar experience at this place

    Food (5/5): Empanadas were good and flavorful . The only improvemengs would be that the ham and cheese one barely had any bam and some of the outer breading of the empanadas was hard. Additionally, we ordered the risotto and the lomito completo. The risotto was delicious with nice creaminess and the lomito completo had really nicely toasted bread with delicious combination of steak, ham, cheese, egg, and toppings. Also got the pear cake with dulce de leche ice cream which was really good. It was the right amount of sweetness and the textures between the bread, fruit, and ice cream was perfect. Overall all the dishes were excellent and well made. Venue (5/5): Beautiful restaurant with nice Spanish themed music. You feel and relaxed and at peace in an upscale setting. The large screen with a fireplace playing was a nice touch. Service (5/5): Checked up on us frequently including water refills. Super impressed at their level of attentiveness. Servers were very helpful and professional. Initially they asked us to sit at a small two person table even though the restaurant was empty but when we asked to sit at a larger table so we can more comfortably fit our items and food, they accommodated. As a heads up, they will automatically charge 20% gratuity even though we were a group of 2. Normally, not a fan of this policy but the service was so good that I couldn't complain.

    Camarones Con Ensalada De Palmitos

    My friend lives around the area and we have always talked about eating here but it was always full. The place fills up pretty quick. So I recommend having a reservation for a table, we didn't have one and sat at the bar. Nevertheless he a great experience the place is cozy and perfect for catching up with friend while enjoying a good meal. We started with two cocktails, Fifi and Fernando. For appetizers the Empanada de Carne and the Chorizo Criollo y Morcilla. We also had the Camarones con ensalada de Palmitos which they graciously split into two servings for us. For the entree we ordered the Costilla Al Malbec con Chipa Guazu and papas. I must say the food was amazing the chorizo and morcilla were very flavorful. The shrimp was cooked perfectly and the palm hearts really complemented it. The empanada was not what we expected but we still enjoyed it. To wrap up the night we ordered the Budín de pan tibio as per the servers suggestion and it did not disappoint! The Dulce de leche gelato was really good. There were so many things we wanted to try on the menu. We would definitely be making a come back.

    Bread pudding

    Place was small with a decent ambiance. Good for a date night or a chill night out with friends. Service was good but food was lackluster. All dishes were Relatively bland and not impressive. All of us needed salt and pepper to season. Cocktails were okay but that's it. Not a place I would visit twice tbh

    Salmon Patagonico and Pollo con vegetales.
    Tatiana G.

    Food and service were awesome. We ordered the Entraña, salmon, and chicken plates. For appetizers, we had the empanadas, which were delicious, and the calamar chamuscado, which was not my favorite--too much olive oil for my liking. Delicious! Definitely coming back when we are around.

    Lomito Completo Sandwich Costilla Al Malbec Con Chipa Guazu
    Phoebe A.

    The food here was so good, it really made me think about flying over to Argentina for more haha! My friend and I got the Lomito Completo (steak sandwich) and the Costilla Al Malbec (short rib). The short rib and the steak were well-cooked and tender - both are so delicious! I also got a cocktail, which was nice albeit a bit sweet. The restaurant itself has a cute, cozy feel. Overall, it was a good experience with great food!

    Amazing little place. The staff was on-point (just the right amount of checking on us but not hovering) and the food was really great!

    1.1 miTheater District, Midtown West, Hell's Kitchen

    For authentic Argentine cuisine in Midtown, this is a must-visit.With seven locations throughout…read moreMiami and one right here in New York, Baires Grill brings the spirit of Argentine asado to the city.Located steps from Midtown and the Theater District, it's also proudly recognized as the official restaurant of the Argentina National Football Team. The Cowboy Steak is an absolute standout -- perfectly cooked, incredibly juicy, and packed with deep, smoky flavor. Every bite is tender and satisfying. Don't skip the spinach and cheese buñuelos

    First time at this restaurant, which we really enjoyed. It's on the northern edge of the theater…read moredistrict, so a great location for a pre-curtain lunch or dinner. We got there at 6 and for a while it was quiet -- great ambience, very comfortable and lovely staff. Then it filled UP and got a bit louder, but not too loud that we couldn't still have a conversation. We weren't super hungry, so can only comment on a few dishes, but what we had we really enjoyed: My friend ordered the grilled chicken breast -- which is just that: grilled chicken with a wedge of lemon -- so you need to order a salad or a side if you want veggies with that. I had the steak salad, which was EXCELLENT -- the steak was marinated in soy sauce and cooked through with onions, and then combinated with greens, tomatoes, avocado and balsamic vinaigrette. Topped the meal off with a shared dish of Swiss Chocolate ice cream, which was just perfect. For all that, plus a cocktail I had at the beginning, the bill came to around $100 before tip -- which is very good for NYC, especially in that area. I definitely would like to return and try more of their menu!
