Loved it!. Was in LA the other night and looked this place up on google. I'm so glad i did. they were so attentive and the food was great. i asked for a milanessa with a small side of gnocchi. OMG! they were both done to perfection! I've had these entrees from NYC to Buenos Aires and these were the best yet. oh and the chimichuri was wonderful. desert was Dulce de Leche pancakes, Wow! you've got to go.

Perfect in ALL Categories!. I've been to this location two times with family and friends, and both times were amazing! Great food! I had the skirt steak and it was made to perfection! The service is incredible, they offer live music during weekends, and treat everyone like family. Hopefully you'll get to hear the entire family sing together (they're great!) There's no way anyone can leave here without a smile! :)

Divine. I hope this place expands it is too small and gets crowded easily because it is TOO GOOD! I had such a lovely time at this place. I had read the reviews and the zagat and this place had a very high rating for steaks at a lower price than the "famous" steakhouses in town. I like that, so we went. I had the most tender, juiciest rib-eye steak. We dont usually go out for steak, I grill them at home. But I was in the mood. It was spectacular!!! The service was wonderful, helpful, and warm. This is obviously a family owned place and they were all lovely people. I hate snooty model- wannabe waitresses....this place does not have that! Thank God! The clientele in this place was way cooler too. Not a bunch of youngsters in trashy clothes desperate for attention as is the case often times on Melrose. AND THE DESSERT!!! OMG! You have got to get the signature dessert "Pastery de Gardel" something like that anyway.....it brought me to tears. I want that again!!!

Best Dining Experience!. Carlitos Gardel makes dining an unforgettable experience. They have great Argentinian tapas as starters and their steak beats any steakhouse in Los Angeles. My favorite is the filet stuffed with portobello mushrooms. They also have the 48 oz bone in rib-eye which is fun to share at a very reasonable price. On weekends there is a piano player that can play any song you request. This restaurant is perfect for any occasion.

AWESOME!!!!!. This is my most favorite new restaurant.

It is an absolute gem!

The steak I had was out of this world and the wine could not have been better. The service was extra-ordinary.

Besides the food being so good, the restaurant is just so charming, warm, and full of heart. I can not rave more about this special restaurant.

Excellent food and sevice. I looked up this restaurant on a whim and went early on Easter night. The service was excellent: if something wasn't quite right, even if you insisted that you didn't need it redone, it was redone anyway. Even when we declined desert, which is homemade by the head chef (dulce de leche), they brought us some anyway, because they wanted us to taste it. The sea bass and the lamb were excellent, as were the side dishes (vegetables) that were served with the food. The service was excellent; definitely recommended!

Great Place for an unforgettable dinner. Great food, great wine, great atmosphere. The quality and freshness of the food is excellent, the steaks are unbelievable, the Paella is sublime. Not to mention the deserts done by "mom" where you taste the love. Please let the Sommelier choose your wine according to your order, you will experience something amazing. I can't mention all the dishes or I won't have room. But you need to keep going back again and again, because you need to taste all the items on the menu and specials. The cozy and elegant ambience is great. The presence of the family running the restaurant is undoubtedly the huge cherry on the cake!!!

We won't stop to patronize the amazing restaurant we were lucky to find.
