My wife speaks fluent Spanish and heard the waiters discuss how much they should over-charge us......Avoid!

Friendly, simple order process with excellent table service. I had the very good Milanesa de Ternera c/fritas and the excellent local Quilmes Beer. Nice Restroom too but its upstairs.

There are better places for steak, but was pretty good. Ate there twice.

The meat was cooked just right, and tasted pretty good. A bottle of house white and we were very satisfied with our meal. Average prices for the area, around 400 pesos including a small tip.

We were handed a flyer for the combination fast food and sit down service. From what we saw the food looked appealing so we entered. We were seated on the second floor. We all chose the Beef Short Ribs with french fries. We were all expecting beef short ribs as we know them. We received a very nice steak. Something was apparently lost in the translation, but it was very good and reasonable. With the above we had assorted salads and red wine. The place was clean but not flashy. Service was good and our waiter friendly and accommodating. It was very helped that we had a Spanish speaker. I have a picture of a current menu and would post the same, but this restaurant is not known to Trip Advisor and there was no link to up load a picture. This may be the first review that have received.
