The Starter Game: They kick things off with a bean dip and a lineup of sauces. Pro-tip: Go for the white sauce, but proceed with caution--it's hella spicy and easily the best of the bunch. The Main Event (Combo for 2): We split the "Combo for 2" which featured: * The Beef Broth: It comes with a tray of condiments to customize the flavor. I wouldn't usually order this, but it was surprisingly savory and a great warm-up. * NY Strip & Skirt Steak: The meat arrives rare, but here's the best part: it's served on a scorching hot slab. Since we like our steaks cooked differently, we were able to sear each bite to our own perfect temperature right at the table. * The Truffle Fries: Two words--ABSOLUTELY DIVINE. Don't skip these. The Vibe: The restaurant is located on the first floor (one story up) and has a great atmosphere. Easy to book, delicious food, and interactive cooking? A total win.

It's dressed like an ok place, with murals, writings on the wall and sturdy wooden furniture. Aiming for that Uruguayan gaucho look I think. Oh and no restaurant would be complete without some big TV's with live performances of latin-american pop stars. Prior to eating here, I was inclined to make a reservation to ensure a table for us. "Silly Europeans!" my Mexican friends said laughingly, "... you don't need a reservation!". And right they were. The place was practically empty on a Wednesday night 8 pm. Lucky for us, cause it meant we were attended to promptly. The waitress was funny and helpful and explained everything we wanted to know about the things on the menu. The empanadas we ordered as appetizers were big and flavorful. Enough to satisfy me on a night when I wouldn't be terribly hungry. Soon after that the meat arrived. Again, huge portions of meat with sides of fries or salad. Mine was tasty, although overcooked and not 'rare' like I ordered it. One of my friends seemed to be eating mainly fat, as half of his cut was fat and therefore inedible. Pity. None of us could finish our main meals, by the way. So they offered kindly to wrap them up to take home. But as any human being knows, there's always room for dessert! Cue the - I bet you already guessed it - HUGE piece of chocolate pie. Split four ways to compensate for its dietary damage, but still we weren't able to finish it. It was definitely delicious though (chocolate with dulce de leche). But I think that's what my main beef is with this place: the insane portions. I'm just not such a big eater, so that might be part of it, but normally I have no problem finishing a meal. Mainly though: should you aim for quality or quantity? Personally, I'd think quality. Here at Don Asado I feel like they aim for more of a middle way. The quality isn't bad, but the quantity is too much. Compensate a little on the sizes of the meals, and I think you could gain a little more quality for the same price. If so, I'd definitely come back for some more of that divine chocolate cake.

They cleared plates promptly, wiped down the table when they noticed it was dirty, when I went to the restroom they traded out my napkin for a clean one and neatly folded it by my plate. We split two dishes and the waiter plated them for us. The meal started with them giving us a bread basket with a variety of different breads as well as salsas. The salsas were delicious. After we split the beef barbacoa and brisket. Delicious. And the highlight of our meal was the dessert. We ordered the chocolate mousse. It was decadent and had little caramels around the plate. I've been dreaming about it ever since 10/10. The atmosphere was sexy and cool, low lighting, sophisticated crowd. I saw groups dining there of 7 or more. Price wasn't too bad either. Not cheap but not ridiculously expensive. Come here if you want a nice dinner with great service and ambiance.

We were also served a small plate of breads and sauces while we waited for our food. Dante is also in a beautiful neighborhood with a stunning ambience. The only heads up I'll give is that they actually allow smoking in part of this restaurant, and we didn't know that when we were offered a seat out on the terrace. So it was very unpleasant to be enjoying this food only to have someone smoking at the next table. So just be sure when you go (don't let this keep you from going, please!) you specify that if you're in the patio section you don't want to be near smokers. That aside, I will definitely return HUNGRY and will try their other delicious-looking dishes!

I conducted my search, finding a few places online trying to locate a good spot in a city I've never visited. Gardela stood out immediately because of their communication, kindness, and dedication to making this event extra special for him and his friends. They truly created and planned the perfect event for the group and I truly could not be more grateful. Onto the food (their honest reviews)! They said it was a 11/10 dining experience overall. The food was incredible and amazing and these are some food critics traveling from major foodie cities. They planned a beautiful menu with Chicken Tortilla Soup, a variety of Empanadas, Picaña Steak and Skirt Steak, and Peasant Salad and Fries as sides. They said the soup was super delicious and flavorful. They said the steak was absolutely phenomenal and tender, it was very high quality meat. Also the salad really stood out as it was super fresh and crisp. Then they plated a beautiful dessert assortment as well as well as special happy birthday and bachelor messages to make the celebration extra special. The cocktails were also super delicious as well. They left the meal with their hearts and bellies very full. From everything, from the planning, to the the presentation of food, the service, and food quality, the team at Gardela went above and beyond. I really could not have picked a better place and now I am jealous because I need to go try some of the steaks because they had my mouth watering! Overall, I would highly recommend going to this restaurant. They said they were seated in a private room too so it made the experience even more special. My sincerest thank you to the entire team at Gardela for making this event unforgettable!

The next night we came back and tried the pizza, which had a very authentic South American flavor and was just as enjoyable in a completely different way. The brisket tacos were also really good! Service was very good throughout, friendly, attentive, and professional without being overbearing. The wine list is extensive and impressive, with lots of excellent options from Argentina and Chile that pair perfectly with the food. Prices were very reasonable for the quality. Reservations are highly recommended because the restaurant gets busy. Another plus is the location, it is within walking distance of many hotels, including the Four Points by Sheraton. Excellent spot and absolutely worth repeating, clearly proven by the fact that we did.
