    Fabulous dining experience here on Saturday night. Egle was our server and she couldn’t have done enough for us, very attentive and kind. We were celebrating my birthday and were given a complimentary dessert which was a delicious dulce de leche cheesecake. We will definitely be back in the future

    The location is fantastic, and the restaurant itself is modern, with a mix of booths and tables. Our table for 4 was upstairs, which is ideal. There was a small delay because of a sell-out rugby match at the nearby Principality Stadium, but we were shown to the downstairs bar to grab a drink - in the end, the wait was only 10 minutes and we were shown to the table. The manager offered a complimentary glass of sparkling wine because of the slight delay, which was very welcome. The food was fantastic, we opted for chateaubriand (perfectly cooked), mac n cheese, broccoli and some other sides - all of which were fantastic. The wine selection is absolutely adequate with a mix of Argentinian and world wines (we went for a Napa valley in the end). The customer service was brilliant throughout, despite the very busy evening for the staff. It was topped off by a phone call from the manager to let me know that a pair of sunglasses had been left at the table, and we could collect before opening the following morning (a Sunday). All in all, highly recommended, for food, ambiance, and service.

    There was three of us eating, when we got there 5 min early, we were asked to leave and come back, no drinking at the bar. Admittedly there was a big match on but not really good enough. When we came back we had to wait approx 20 min at the bar, again not allowed to buy a drink. We were not the only ones, several parties were kept waiting. Not really the staff fault, is say managment were trying to cram to many servings in. Food was nice but nothing to write home about.

    Very nice food, a little over priced. Was disappointed to see a default gratuity was included as part of the bill. 12.5%. I would have been happy to tip the staff but never think this should be included as part of the bill.

    Nice lunch at Gauchos. Chateaubriand was over cooked (not what you expect when it’s £100+) but they dealt with it and everything else was fab. Would go again. Amazing interior, interesting cocktails and a killer red wine list. A nice distraction on rugby match day.

    Excellent service, also provided help on selecting a wine along with a few samples to try. The steaks were of superior quality, very tender and cooked as requested. Side dishes were also quite good. Nice atmosphere. If I ever return to Cardiff I will definitely dine here again.
