Food was delicious but they took 30/45minutes to bring out the antipasto then immediately brought entrees and the server was thrown off that everything was out at once and there wasnt enough space at our table. Our entrees were also incorrect.... But still delicious, at least. Also i put in the notes that it was my partners birthday and by dessert i had kind of given up because they clearly never saw the note/they did nothing
The food was excellent and portions were VERY generous. The spinach mashed potatoes was a special treat as was the flan.
The food was delicious. We ordered the skirt steak and ribeye. They both come with tomatoes and peppers. We also got the vesuvio potatoes which were also delicious. Service was also good. We went on a Wednesday so it wasn't that crowded but it is a smaller space so I can see it getting crowded and loud on the weekends.
Waited 30 minutes past reservation for table. Service was slow. Steaks were just OK. Worth it to spend a bit more for a steakhouse with proper service. Will not be back.
The food is amazing as always the service was great celebrated my sisters birthday! They accommodated us when our party was running late the drinks amazing as well! I recommend this restaurant!
Excellent food, great service. Everything is fantastic and always delicious. Quality is consistent. Tango Sur and Folklore (owned by the same people) are my absolute top recommendation for a steak dinner for special occasion.
We had a fantastic meal sharing a steak for two and the delicious frittata Style appetizer which is made to order and takes about 10 minutes fresh. The wine list has a nice selection along with fun cocktails and beer and corkage for special bottles is only $20. We were very full before dessert but we're very impressed by the dessert presentation tableside and think folks who are into dessert should definitely take a look. The only issue with noise was the high ceiling and hard surfaces in the room which was great for half our meal and very loud for the other half because of the large party with guys who had deep loud voices the manager was very sensitive to the noise and was even adjusting the music in the room to get things a little more reasonable.
Very enjoyable dining experience at Folklore. The food was fabulous. Nice Argentinean Cabernet wine. House Mezcal was smooth. Will return.
The food taste was amazing. However, it took us an hour to be able to put our order in, as our server was busy. He forgot a couple of our drinks and the orders were put in incorrectly. My drink also did not have enough ice as it was warm and then the potatoes were served barely room temperature.
I haven't been to Folklore since before Covid. Was there last night and the interior is very run down. Out server was impersonal. It was 25 degrees last night and they either had the air conditioning on or a window open because it was freezing. The steaks were mediocre. My guest ordered the Bifo Ancho which was just ok and I had the Churrasco which was very tough. Also the steak knives they had were the wrong type of knife and dull so it made cutting the steak difficult.

Food was great. Wine was reasonably priced and good. Only thing we didn't love was that it was very dark and hard to see our menus and food. We will definitely return.
Food has some way to go to be considered a good steak. Mash potatoes were great. Steak was ok but not like you expect of an Argentinian steak.
A plate of cheese and salami is pretty cheap and I think that a better quality would justify the price.

Excellent place, I have visited this place more than 4 times, the food is always delicious, everything is very fresh, well cooked and with a lot of flavor.
The service is very attentive and fast, making sure you have a good experience, making you feel at home, and all the waiters have great knowledge of the menu to recommend.
The atmosphere is pleasant at any time of the day, sometimes there is live music in the restaurant, I think that in general it is worth booking here for any occasion.
