Fantastic Argentine Steakhouse. The steaks are nicely aged and grilled. Steaks not served with sauce or lathered in butter so you can enjoy the flavour of the meat. Had the arugula salad that was very well prepared. Attentive service and prices were very reasonable for a Michelin star restaurant. Definitely need to make a reservation.

Upon our arrival, we received a glass of prosecco and an empanadita. AGUSTÍN provided exceptional service, answered questions, and provided excellent suggestions for our dining experience. We started off with a proprietary tomato over a tomato olive oil puree. We chose a tomato fig tartare which was incredible. The ribeye was good and so big that we had to split it. Truly the best steak I ever ate. The French fries were large and hot. We asked for ketchup but they do not serve ketchup in order to dmsavor the flavor of their own farm vegetables. We didn’t need ketchup because they were truly awesome All staff is incredibly attentive and courteous. The venue is accessible on first floor with accessible tables and at accessible outdoor tables that are covered The red wine was so good with the steak. For dessert, we chose one of their farm-crafted ice cream and what could be better than dulce de leche! Background noise includes conversation. Truly deserving of one of worlds greatest Restaurant awards

Fantastic service and atmosphere, I really like eating this outside with staff that was very attentive to us. Then, for the food, I thought that it was steak-heavy as expected. Great. The asados are all cooked correctly, which is great. But their style really means you should get the skirt steak. The other steaks have too much chewiness for their grill style I think, although to be clear they are still really good. Just not that amazing steak that is at Keen's, at Benjamin Prime, or what I had at Fogon in Mendoza. So really really good steakhouse. But to its lofty expectations, not great. Not going to lie, my review may be tainted by my accidentally ordering a rump steak instead of a skirt steak, then us getting a half portion of skirt steak without realizing we were paying for it. So y'know, maybe it's just us, but that rump steak also could've had more treatment, like a salt drying?

Need to book a table almost 1 month before to get access. Even after booking, we had to wait around 10 mins before seated, but we received a welcome drink and snack for free. Service was good, just maybe would be a good idea to change cutlery after starters, because it was left the same for main course, and for such price restaurant that should be a standard. Waiters could speak better english, as fot foreigner it is quite hard to communicate. Steak was great, and the portion was huge, 500gr of meat, could be posibility to take half portion. Prices are very expensive, but that is a michelin star restaurant

From the moment we arrived until we left 4+ hours later we were pampered and felt like we were family. We arrived at 11:20am for a lunch reservation, as this was the first seating there was a line that had formed. We were given a 1/2 glass of sparkling wine and a beef empanada (simple amazingly tasty) to wait the 10 minutes until we were sat. We settled in and our 3rd person arrived in time for a tour to see the meats and charcoal fire that they cooked over, they also took us down to see their ample wine cellar below and then were shown back to our table. It was a lovely tour and helped connect us to the restaurant and meal without any sales pressure whatsoever. We started with appetizers of provolone and chorizo before ordering steaks based on “meating” them earlier, I had the strip loin NY and Lisa the tenderloin. Grilled peppers and mash potato sides were ordered. As in most of South America the steaks were lean and flavorful. The tenderloin was very favorable putting the New York and Sirloin steaks at home to shame with little visible fat. We took more than our time finishing a second bottle of Argentinian wine before desert where the restaurant sent over a couple of other bites to try. Conscious of holding up the table we asked for a quick digestive before leaving, then asked for the check. Before we could leave a glass of dessert wine showed up; “forcing” us to stay longer. This was our first Michelin star restaurant, and we LOVED IT, while you can get in and out without spending a lot of money; we advise planning on a relaxed time and several courses. The reward will stick with you for a long time.
