Gaucho has their own Rye from Knob Creek, very good. Kristen was our bartender, excellent service and wonderful dining experience. Perfect steak and scalloped potatoes. Nice happy hour as well.

Great happy hour on Sunday. I'm a vegetarian and this is still a top pick for me just because the staff are always going above and beyond- I'm always amazed by the quality service here.

The mac & cheese and sautéed spinach are good but not great, but the clam chowder is excellent and the filet mignon is arguably the best I've ever had

The fries during happy hour are perfect and served piping hot. Ask for extra chipotle sauce ;)

In comparison to the other El Gaucho, this one also has bar burgers and steak sandwiches, though neither is as grand. This is more of a small-bite-and-tapas place. Happy hour: M-F 2-6 & Sun 5-11 Read more

The lamb is dee-lish if you aren't a steak person... and more consistent than the steak, I find. Bananas Foster not to be missed.
