If size is all that matters to you then by all means eat here. We ordered chorizo as an appetizer, pork shoulder, and rib eye. We also ordered the potatoes with grilled onion as a side. The chorizo had some flavor but was greasy and filled with gristle. Maybe some people like gristle in their sausage but we do not. Every bite I was spitting out inedible bits of sausage and wiping my mouth of grease. Disgusting. The pork shoulder was sere, chewy, and tasteless. The ribeye, well...this place has a subprime crisis of it's very own. The steak did not rise to the level of even select grade. It was cooked correctly but nothing could save this slab of grainy, dry, tasteless cow, not even the thousand and one side dishes they serve as a gimmick. The potatoes and onions, amazingly, were also tasteless. Plus the presentation was so ugly that had I seen it before we were seated we would have left. No restaurant worth it's salt should serve such an unappetizing looking dish. We have been in Buenos Aires for five days and this is the absolutely worst meal we have eaten. In fact it has claimed 1st place in my global list of worst meals of all time at overrated restaurants. For US $17 with a bottle of wine the pizza at a little hole-in-the-wall dive called Angelin was much better--outstanding in fact.
Service was mediocre with one exception related at the end. Our waiter, while pleasant, disappeared for 15-20 minutes at a time. At one point he left the restaurant entirely--we watched him crossing the street away from us. Maybe his wait station included tables at their sister restaurant up the road? The one unconditionally good--and I have to emphasize very good-- thing I have to report is that our waiter sensed our unhappiness with the meal and without even a request from us removed the two main courses from the tab. That gesture more than made up for the otherwise so-so service. He got a very big tip.
