Exceptional dining experience as always, not cheap but hey, only live once. We were unaccustomed to the automatic 20% gratuity but once it was explained, all good. My wife enjoys lobster on her birthdays, she said this one was the best so far, Nova Scotia I believe. The rose petals on the table for her birthday was a welcome surprise. The flaming beef medallions were to die for. Valet parking was effortless.

Have been to El Gaucho many times in the past but not recently. Steak was not good quality and way overpriced for what had traditionally been a sure thing. I would pass on recommending to others.

The food was superb, the presentation perfect. I found the wait staff impersonal, stiff. I notified restaurant in advance that two birthdays were being celebrated. Not even cupcakes with candles were given for the celebrants.

The food was amazing. The sides were rich but not greasy, the meat was tender and perfectly cooked. We were there celebrating our wedding anniversary and the staff was great in helping us celebrate with a kind card and rose petals on the table.

Food and wine is very good, especially the brussel sprouts. I ordered the ribeye which was cooked perfectly but didn't wow me with flavor. If you're looking for a good steak, this is a great option. If you're looking for a contender for best steak of your life - keep on looking.
