The food quality was extremely poor. Worst steak that I have ever had.

The food was spot on, super tasty and delicious! The service was super kind and really nice! Definitely coming back!

We were the only guests and that should have already made us reconsider and cancel. The waiter was friendly but incompetent. I had to double check what he wrote down when I ordered. He poured wine over my napkin and hands twice. The salad my husband ordered was nothing like in the menu. It seemed they split salad made for me and him in two parts and only put some oranges on his, which was supposed to be arugula with oranges and figs. No arugula no figs to be found. But goat cheese that was supposed to be only on mine…. The main dish (parillada patagonia for 2) also missed items (the Argentinian blood sausage). This restaurant is dead. Don’t prolong their agony by going there like we did. Big mistake but we were fooled by extremely good reviews on google (???).

Loooved the dressing on the Classic salad. Tomatoes were so fresh and just the right amount of ripeness. Ordered the Parillada and enjoyed the variety meats with the red pepper and chimichurri dressings. Paired with Bornada red wine. Finished with creme brulee.

I love this place, when we come back to DC this will be a must

Great service and food! Service staff couldn’t have been more friendly. Try the skirt steak!

Sat at the outdoor patio on 17th Street. The service was very attentive. Steak was delicious. I really enjoyed my salad which was fresh. They have a nice selection of wines. Since we were at Malbec we ordered a glass of Malbec! Very impressed and will definitely be back

Absolutely amazing food!! We had the barbecue for two which has every staple of a traditional Argentinian asado. I have to say that every bite was exquisite, good quality meats, cooked with smoked flavor and seasoned to perfection. We had the crepes and flan for dessert, both were as tasty as the entrée. Would go again on a next trip to Washington DC.

Amazing food but most importantly amazing service by Miguel! We ordered a Patagonia parrilla for two and there was enough food for three!

Service provided by Carlos, Daniel, Oscar, and Jonathan was exceptional.
