Get the octopus and empanadas to start and then share the steak! Absolutely divine. Happy hour drinks are also a steal - $6 strong cocktails!
Dana DAugust 6, 2014
The churrasco alone is worth the visit. Add in half-price wines for happy hour and grab a seat in the small backyard garden and you're in for a wonderful treat.

The Flank Steak with Chimichurri is excellent, as is the Chivito Completo sandwich, which is layered with filet mignon, bacon, olives, onions, a fried egg, and aoili. Cash only!

This is one of the best places in BK for cozy dates and great South American food. Order the empanadas and pâté!

Uruguayan sausage is a must at this cute and cost neighborhood restaurant. Loved the decor that takes you right back to Montevideo.

Uruguayen restaurant with outdoor patio and happy hour every day from 5-7pm and during brunch hours... can't go wrong with a $15 bottle of Tannat!

This place is super warm and cozy! Great ambience, nice date spot. However, I did come on my own and sat on the little bar for quick drink and apps. They a good have happy hour. Highly recommend!

My husband had the famous sandwich which was filet, bacon, cheese, ham on a light fluffy role with amazing fries & aioli. The chicken liver pate was spot on- smooth creamy savory deliciousness!

Unusual cuisine with a familiar taste of Italian and Spanish influences in a charming, carefully curated decor with a rather reasonable price tags ... a gem.

Came at the tail end of Sunday brunch. Great service, food, drinks and value. Happy hour deals are good. Mate infused vodka drink was awesome. Can't wait to go back.

Mussles & the empanadas were finger licking good! They have a special sauce that has a good kick too. Their layered cookie dessert is awesome too! :) But bring cash bc they dont like plastic! Lol

Mon to Fri $6 happy hour cocktail. Mon to Tue Burger set with beer $15. I’ll give a 9/10 for the food and the vibe. Friendly server. My skin steak was $25.

This place. A+++++. Service is great, Food is out of this world. Get something with the steak. Healthy drink portions. 2 for 1 happy hour. Reasonably priced but FYI cash only
Cindy KingJune 25, 2014
The chivito complete is a MUST try at Tabare. The drinks are on point. Pricey, but worth it. Been here a handful of times and it's always an amazing experience.
Melanie DudekJanuary 5, 2016
Beautiful decor, beef and cheese empanadas for an appetizer were very tasty
Anna WalshSeptember 8, 2016
It's perfect. Good wine, hot bread, delicious flavor combinations and flan! And alfajores!
Cindy lauAugust 11, 2015
Brunch is the real deal. Comes with a drink. And unlimited coffee.
NakishaFebruary 29, 2012
Muscles, house made gnocchi & ravioli, octopus casserole, flan ALL SO good! Skirt steak: cooked well but a bit bland (blue cheese topped baked potato that came with = YUM). Go with a Uruguayan wine.
lee johnsonOctober 8, 2013
So dark in the patio had to use phones to read menu! Beef was a bit chewy but flavorful & cooked to perfection. . I would definitely go back. Incident at a table caused a 'stir' fun story to tell now
EvieMarch 26, 2014
I can't even deal with how good this place is. Get empanadas to start, particularly the caramelized onions one. I will be craving the steak sandwich for days.
Daniela VélezApril 16, 2016
The cheese empanadas are delicious!! And the have a really good Mexican beer of the "día de los muertos"
Madm FiaFebruary 11, 2017
The whole fish was very good. Come during happy hour with a date and get a bottle of wine for half off.
Alexandra DoucetteJune 21, 2013
Stopped in for a quick drink. Got their sangria and empanadas; delish. Can't wait to come back for a full dinner. Beautiful atmosphere, great for date night :)
Eric BreeseDecember 17, 2022
Excellent service. Wonderful brunch menu with fixed price options.
Michael 🍷 ElmgreenMay 20, 2017
Had a great bottle of carmenere, a caipirinha and those cheese empanadas 👌🏼
Lucy MariaAugust 31, 2014
The empanadas are delicious as well as the breaded chicken cutlet. Everything here is so good and the ambiance is great! Love it!

One of the best places you've never heard of. Skirt steak...forget what you've heard.
Sandra RubinchikJune 21, 2015
The empanadas really are the bomb diggity, but the entrees were so damn oily. If you don't wanna stare at your date in the dark, ask for a table in the back garden.
Alicia AlvaradoApril 8, 2014
Possibly my favorite restaurant in Brooklyn at the moment. The cheese empanadas, chivito complete and mojitos are all phenomenal.
Mo ZhuApril 19, 2016
Incredible food! Get a seat in the patio in the back. Many romance.
Marc SchneebergerSeptember 16, 2017
Nice uruguaian restaurant with great empanadas. Mussels are also a good option as well as the churrasco!

Konstantinos PsychogiosJuly 15, 2019
Great little Uruguayan restaurant. Try the empanadas and the alfajor rustico! Both are delicious.
Ben GaspariniNovember 6, 2016
Loved the empanadas and steak! This place makes me feel like a giant but it's cool in the back.

Food was incredible. The filet mignon sandwich was amazing - marinated steak, salted with green olive slices. Yum.
Manya MaierJanuary 20, 2015
Mussels and provolone cheese plate was so good! Staff is so nice and happy hour is amazing.
Jie WangJuly 21, 2013
Amazing steak. Comparable to a real steak house. Definitely recommended.
Rosario F.March 11, 2011
You MUST have the manjar del cielo (dulce de leche flan) and don't forget to try some Uruguayan wine too (we had the Tempranillo and it was very good)
Adam GriffDecember 28, 2014
The Uruguayan fusion of ranch and italian is perfect. Who doesn't love pasta and bbq?
Wade VJuly 26, 2016
Burger and beer for $15. One of the best.
Maple ShippJanuary 25, 2017
Super cute! Perfect for Wednesday happy hour which is all night long. Quiet and lovely.
Audrey ChouApril 7, 2017
We tried to be adventurous with the blood sausage but unless you're a huge fan, it's not worth it. Everything else was delicious!
Evan CooperJanuary 3, 2018
Grilled octopus and churrasco 👌🏻
Zack KimelheimAugust 23, 2022
Skirt steak is amazing
Victoria HarmanMay 21, 2015
This place is CASH ONLY. I didn't see it written anywhere on the menu or in the restaurant so a bit of an unpleasant surprise at the end. The bodega across the street charged $1.75 to take out cash.
