In Short – Green plants and a high ceiling lend a garden ambience to the contemporary dining room; dim lighting encourages romance. But the restaurant's main draw is meat, massive steaks served with piles of crispy fries and a variety of sauces. Vegetarians can opt for the Provoleta appetizer, a wedge of cheese melted in a mini-skillet and topped with fresh salsa. There are also several South American-inspired chicken and fish entrees, and an ambitious cocktail menu.

3 outta 5 ain't bad

by lilbuddha2k at Citysearch

Not a bad spot, but not great. Portions are nice, and service is steady, but every time I come here I get sat at the same table in the center of the restaurant which everyone walks by. Although it is good for a change of pace from the standard latin cuisine.

  • Pros: service is decent
  • Cons: food is so so

Good not great South American fare

by kiercemartin at Citysearch

This is a pretty decent little dinner place on the Promenade. I think it wants to be more upscale than it actually is, but all in all it's a pretty good place with a pretty good showing of Argentian fare, and probably the best steak you will find on the Promenade (although that's not saying much). Still worth a try, and though it stays busy. The service is decent and nothing really to complain about

Worst serves and the food made us sick

by 1234rjh at Citysearch

The serves sucked! The host, bartender, and waitress were rude, disorganized, and it took forever to get any serves. The food was dry and cold. The worst part my friend and I got sick from the food. I will never go there again.
