Frommer's Review

One of the best steaks I've ever had was here. In a roomy two-floor downtown setting, this is a cozy and atmospheric Argentine steakhouse -- laid-back and classy. You'll be greeted at the door by a kindly maitre d' who will make you feel at home, as will the friendly staff and chummy atmosphere around the imposing wooden bar. But it's the food that sells this place, and I mean imported steak done just how you like it, chargrilled to perfection, not pan-fried, as is common in this part of the world. I had a filet mignon with red shallots that could hold its own in the heart of Chicago. There's also a full raw bar and a roster of seafood specials and salads. Entrees come with big baked potatoes and corn; for a real slice of home, follow it up with apple strudel or ice cream. Along with a full-service bar, this place has a great wine list featuring good Argentine and Chilean reds among others.
