After several good lunches and dinners at this Palermo restaurant I had a meal there that made me feel it has really become a tourist trap. Horrible meat, the worst I have ever had in Argentina, in fact. The rucula salad was also forgetable, with too much parmesan cheese. And their nice and attentive staff does not make up for... More

Disappointing, over priced, and our least fav Parillia that we went to in BA. The side dishes that come with the meal are TINY, and a very odd choice. The wait staff spoke little or no English. The best part of the night was the wonderful girl who was dressed up as a 'bobby' and entertained all the patrons- she... More

Must eat place in buenos aires! Good atmosphere. Price range is moderate to high, however the restaurant is well positioned for many other bars and clubs, and the food portions are huge!

If you like meat, this is your restaurant. we had the kobe which was great, with papas fritas, grilled veggies, apple mousse and some other delicious side orders. The wine list is very decent as one would expect. For dessert we had the pudin de leche and the chocolate cake. All delicious. This is definitely a come back!

I reviewed this restaurant about a month ago, and discovered, much to my dismay, that I had given a review I intended for another restaurant nearby, also known as a place frequented by tourists. We stumbled on Cabrera in a jet-lagged fog, the attraction being that it offers an early (7:00) "happy hour" dinner menu. We did not know that... More

If you're looking to impress someone, this is a nice joint.. Supposedly best in town but sadly disappointed despite the tourist price tag. Meat was dry but the sides were delightful. Ambiance was cosy & wecloming but not fancy. Was also little annoyed that they kept reminding you tips are not included when paying by credit card despite the poor... More

As someone who came to Buenos Aires in1996 and now in 2013, it was easy to note the massive changes in Argentina, which unfortunately are also reflected in the quality of food served. That gigantic piece of incomparable flavourful Argentinian beef that simply melts in your mouth is very hard to find these days. Our steaks were good, but nowhere... More

Went there with my friend as recommended by the hotel. We were kind of embarrassed even thinking about sharing a medium steak between us but delighted it was ok when Fernando ( our waiter) has suggested it too. Even then we went for the large rib eye steak to make ourselves better. It was more like a big roast than... More

I had resisted this restaurant for many years, as I usually shy from too-tourist-oriented places. I finally went, and it was indeed tourist oriented, but that did not diminish its quality. The servings are like in the USA, because not only do they bring a huge steak, but they give you tons of sides and extras... and they are all... More

Tasty good quality food! Make sure to make reservations or you will wait all night. There isn't much to say. The food is amazing. The flan for desert was super good!
