This restaurant is fantastic. The ambience, food, and service were all perfect. The portions are huge; consider doing a side with one entree for two. Or take delicious leftovers home. You will not be disappointed. I dreamt about the flan the next day.

Delicious authentic parilla experience. Just like a night out in Buenos Aires. Argentine beef is a special treat prepared by a masterful asador. Some of the best chimichurri north of the equator. Put it on everything!

Really nice and romantic atmosphere, great for a date night. The candles on the tables were a lovely touch. The service was wonderful. The food was spectacular, literally the best gnocchi I've ever had, and that's really saying something. Also loved the mashed potatoes, empanadas, and the marinated eggplant.
