Visited 6 years ago (!) and loved it. Went again last week and found it disappointing. Slow initial service, ÂŁ12 single measure G&T arrived with no garnish, just ice. Kind of set the tone. Starters ranged from greasy to undercooked - all overpriced. The steak was good and uniformly well-cooked to preference - but is overpriced - and the sides were without exception mediocre - and overpriced - such as dried out 'triple-cooked chips', which seemed like they'd just been reheated. Wine was quite good but the list starts around ÂŁ50 and climbs steeply from there. Our main waitress was very good, and the ambience is nice. Can't really recommend it at these prices, though, as when you're spending in the ÂŁ100/head range there are far, far better options out there. Maybe it's reasonable pricing for the area?

Took my partner here for his birthday…never had Argentinian food before so had to Google and read reviews and omgosh we were so impressed! Steak was the best we ever had! Don’t get me started on the wine… Everything we had was recommended by the very nice waitress we had. Restaurant is small but very tranquil clean and nicely decorated. 100% recommend going here.

An excellent find not far from Paddington. Lovely ambience, tasty, well cooked and proportioned. Would happily return as the whole experience for a walk-in was delightful for the two of us.

Service was nice, it was not busy at all. Food was okay the sirloin steak was good the ribeye not so much to be honest the meat is nothing special expected it to be more Argentinian meat full of flavour but left abit disappointed tasted like cheap meat. The burger was not nice at all very bland with little flavour. Chips were nice though.

Great steak and the wine was fantastic. PS It was sliced up because we were sharing asked that way

Really good food, excellent steak made from really high quality beef and nice sides.

Their beef dish was very good , and Argentina wine is the best , and the Argentinean dessert was amazing.

This restaurant is down the road from me. Besides the service always being great, the food is absolutely exquisite too. My fillet steak (which I like blue) has always been perfect, just so nicely seared on the outside. All the sides are great too, and so many nice wines too choose from. Also love just walking over to sit outside the restaurant for a glass of wine or an Aperol!

What a beautiful restaurant/cafe/bar.I have never been in here before and after living around the area for 3 months, I took a longer walk around the block and finally opened my eyes. How have I never been here?Walked in to grab some takeaway cakes.. wowweeee the Argentinan selection is stunning. Huge portions for a great price and luxurious ingredients. I love my goood food so you can be rest assured this was not at all a disappointment.I calso left with 2 beautiful bottles of red wine. I genuinely was just curious about the craft of the wine and after such an astounding discussion and insight into the belnds, ages and more, I really couldn't leave without purchasing.The hosts Alexandra and I forget the chefs name, so sorry! They are just amszing. You can really feel their passion for this place. The way they speak, describe and package everything so carefully. I really mean this, go on in and check them out. ASK QUESTIONS because they clearly love to share their knowledge.THANK YOU! So excited to try the wines!!
