    Horrible service. Unfortunately we seem to always get stuck with bald Argentinian guy (Matias) as our server and he sucks. No personality, never ever checks in on us and is arrogant as they come.

    The food is fantastic. Their Gaucho Burger is KILLER, and they have a new item: Filet Mignon Brochettes. It's just amazing. Matias's service was on point. He was invaluable in our selections. Their Chocolate Mousse is to die for.

    I was not too crazy about the calamari. It was not worth the price of $22.00. Too breaded, hard and flavor was lost. I loved their steak it was perfect and so flavorful. The sides, salad and mashed potatoes were fine. Would definitely visit again.
