Bottomless brunch was amazing. The service was incredible, I never had to flag anyone down to ask for another drink as the servers were always checking in! I didn’t get a photo of the arancini which was very delicious, I just wasn’t fast enough! Well worth it and will be returning again.
This 2 stars is for the quantity of the size for “ sharing plate Asado Platter $70 “ to my son had to buy more food on the way home My son ordered that in the hope can share with me but that portion is only enough for him. The taste is alright. Nothing is special My husband ordered lomo saltado rump. Again, the taste is alright, my daughter had tacos as entree, it’s very delicious she said . I didn’t want order so I got cocktail and was amazing ! Loved the vibe in the restaurant. Staff members are very friendly. Unfortunately I have to give 2 stars for the portion and the taste on meat should have improvement Would love to come back to have a better review ❤️❤️
What a fabulous experience around South America with a tantalising palette experience. Thank you for watching two chefs working in tandem together working up wonderful dishes for our taste buds. Will definitely be back again with more friends to enjoy the experience as it was definitely more than just a meal. Thank you to you all, such a great team from the time we walked in the door until leaving.
The restaurant is located on a street with a great atmosphere, which I really liked. We went as a group of eight for a birthday. Most of us ordered steak, and one friend had chicken fajita. We ordered mashed potatoes to eat with the steak, and everyone also tried one taco each. Overall, the food was good. The steak was cooked perfectly and tasted high quality. I also tried a watermelon cocktail, which was nice. The Cachapa Rump steak was filling, but the pancake served with it felt too sweet and didn’t match well with the meat. The steak would have been even better with a bit of rock salt sprinkled on top. The staff were friendly and service was good, but the food took quite a long time to arrive — almost an hour. Prices were a bit expensive, but overall it was a good experience. Overall, I was satisfied. It’s a place I would visit again for a meal, and I would recommend it.
The steak with potatoes was insane! The tacos were also delicious. I’ve been here twice already, and the food never disappoints. The Spicy Marg is a must! Highly recommend.
