“ Very nice place. It's not to expensive but you'll enjoy the quality of the food. See the latest price for your reference. ”
“ The decoration of the place is sensational but the whole business smells horrible and the service is terrible apart from the fact that the prices are just as expensive as a Sonora Grill Prime or a Cambalache... ”
“ Very good service and very delicious meat. If you don't eat a lot, the grill is enough for up to 4 people, I also recommend the onions :) the melted cheese not so much because they put it on a spread plate and you can't even serve it ”
“ Very good place to eat cuts and Argentine grills. A very nice place, surrounded by photographs and soccer shirts (basically Boca Juniors). Very good service and so is the food. They have valet parking service. The flank steak is highly recommended in this place. ”
“ I say the best place to eat Argentine food and Diego Armando MARADONA says it!!!! DELICIOUS TRULY. The best cut is the barbecue ribs ”
“ Very good service, the meat is always cooked to perfection, which is much appreciated. They have the typical Argentine grill dishes like empanadas, gravy, etc., but the roasted potatoes and onions are especially tasty. We're always short on space when we come here; the space is a bit cramped, but it's enough to enjoy a good meal. If you end up with room for dessert and don't have a problem with sugar, an alfajor is highly recommended. ”
