Cozy little place with great food and interesting cocktails. Great for beef-lovers. The stars here are the churrasco, empanadas and the Chivito sandwich (which is a flank steak sandwich). I went there to celebrate with a friend and we both loved it. The ambience is warm, quiet and welcoming, even though the tables are a bit on the smaller side. All in all, this is a great little place with excellent food, and a nice atmosphere.

A very meat heavy Uruguayan restaurant, has another location in Billyburg. The inside is very dimly lit. The dishes are tender and juicy for very reasonable price.
Tabaré is exceptional. The service is warm and attentive, and the food is outstanding from start to finish. The ambience truly makes you feel like you’ve been transported to a restaurant in Uruguay—cozy, authentic, and full of character. Can’t wait to come back.

We got Empanadas caseras and chivitocompleto. I suppose there’s a reason why those are popular menus. I highly recommend them. 👍👍

Went in with my partner for dinner, the place is really nice and the vibe is really cozy. The food was really great, everything cooked really well including the steak as desired. We got the tomato soup which was really good. The servers were amazing and helped us with all our questions. My only note would be that the lighting is extremely dim, which is part of the atmosphere, but slight changes could be made to make it easier to read the menu and see the food. A bigger candle or a less frosted candle holder would definitely do good.

We were very close to calling the police over this situation!!!!!
We went to Tabaré (Bushwick) to celebrate Christmas Eve with my family, my partner, and I. My parents had come all the way from Spain, so it was meant to be a special night. The restaurant is Uruguayan and, to be fair, the food was okay, nothing outstanding.
However, the overall experience was extremely disappointing due to a very serious issue: we were charged money without our authorization.
Our bill was $276. We paid with a card and did NOT include a tip on the card, because we left $20 in cash on the table. On the receipt, we clearly marked that we were not leaving a tip on the card (two lines).
When we got back to the hotel, we noticed that instead of $276, we had been charged $296 — $20 extra. Two days later, we called the restaurant to ask about this charge, and their explanation was shocking. They claimed that tipping is mandatory in the United States (which is absolutely false) and that because they thought the service was “excellent,” they decided to charge themselves an extra $20, despite the fact that we had already left a cash tip.
In other words, they expected to keep $40 in tips without our consent. This is completely unacceptable and illegal.
I live in the U.S. with my partner and I know very well that tips are not mandatory, and no restaurant has the right to modify a card charge without permission.
If you decide to eat here, check your card charges very carefully. We felt scammed, we will never return, and we do not recommend this place at all.

A server with long hair and beard. HORRIBLE HOSPITALITY. I have been to the place multiple times +10 since I moved to the neighborhood with my family. I’ve paid multiple times by Visa Card and this guy didn’t allowed me he wanted me to use cash and directed me to their ATM they have inside. This is about the hospitality and the clientele you can’t treat like this someone just to make extra $3 that cost me have my ATM money. YOU LOSE CLIENTELE
