We had a great time celebrating my birthday. The restaurant was packed and super busy due to Sunday and game day. Nonetheless, service was still excellent. The server we had was very attentive. The food speaks for itself and was very delicious as always. Love that there is an in house DJ for that brunch lunch vibe. Definitely recommend to go back to this location.

We used the DineLA menu and ordered the flank steak with chicken empanadas. Meat was mediocre and was chewy. Empanadas was not cooked well. Chocolate bread pudding was not tasty and was hard considering it was bread pudding. Ambience was great, service was slow. Not coming back here!

Be sure to check the lunch specials menu. I didn't go back that far and ordered à la cart and paid $17 more than my friend paid for lunch menu. Portions were the same. Wish the server would have said something.

Visited Gaucho Grill in Downey and had a great experience. I ordered the fettuccine Alfredo, which was rich, creamy, and comforting, perfectly cooked pasta with a smooth, flavorful sauce. I paired it with a strawberry mocktail, which was refreshing, lightly sweet, and a great complement to the meal. The atmosphere was inviting and made for a relaxing dining experience. Definitely a spot I'd return to!

The service was great! The food was very flavorful! We sat outside which was nice, but did notice that the music got loud. I loved seeing the birthday celebrations, I'll definitely have to go back just to celebrate a birthday.

The food was ok. We were here not long ago and the food was better. No seasoning on the potato's. Small portions on the popular sides, large portions on the not so popular sides, like they were trying to get rid of them. Hard to get refills. The table was overrun with dirty, empty dishes. We had to find someone to clear the table. Find someone to get extra napkins and cutlery. In the past the server would cut the huge tomahawk table side. This time they just put the huge steak in front of us and left, with no room to really cut the huge piece of meat. It seems like service has taken a dive. Over priced for the food and service. We were very disappointed after being so excited to return.

The ambiance was okay upon arrival, but soon after we got there, a kid selling candy bars approached my table. I kindly told him no, and then he started to call me racial slurs. The manager told him to leave, but my feelings were already hurt. To make matters worse, my steak arrived undercooked even though I asked for well-done. In my opinion, $60 for a steak wasn't worth it.

Really good quality, a lot of meat. My meal came with one side, I chose potatoes, I wish I had more sides to balance the meat a bit better it was a bit overwhelming to have so much meat. The alcoholic beverages are priced a bit high in my opinion but the food was great and cooked well. Customer service was exceptional.

Service was good. Was celebrating my birthday when our plates arrived food was cold , it had no taste. We packed up and called it a day. We did not mention it to the server the food was just not it. Also did not get the birthday discount.

1st time in this restaurant. Service very attentive, spacious venue, inside and outside seating with heaters for the cold weather. Meat was soft and juicy but needed flavor. Poor Vegetable selection ( corn and potatoes). Only one side of veggies or potatoes with regular order 🤔. Spinach empanadas were crunchy but soft🙂. Overall, it kept looking for the salt or salsa

Great music how ever, Very disappointed. The food and meats were bland, and overall it felt overpriced for the quality. My hamburger was dry, the guaco sandwich lacked flavor, and the assorted meat platter was very basic. I had high hopes for this place, which made the experience even more disappointing. On a positive note, the drinks were excellent—the mocktails and cocktails were delicious. And service was extremely slow.
