Dining on my own (wife at a conference). Both my dishes were very oily, even the vegetable risotto. Both dishes were large in size - with benefit of hindsight I only needed the risotto. Unexpected cover charge on the bill. I tipped $100 but waiter talked about 10% being the standard. I didn't change the tip. On the positive side, the waiter was happy to let me move outside to eat my risotto... and enjoy the lightning and thunder before the torrential rain came. Expensive dinner given the cover charge, oily food and tip on top. Food: 2 Service: 3 Atmosphere: 4
Nice restaurant, not too expensive, with a very good parrilla. My meat was great, my girlfriend's pasta wasn't. But this is a meat place. She shouldn't have ordered pasta... Good wine selection.

It is my favorite place in Punta del Este. I have been there at least 5 times for dinner. I love beef and to my mind this is the best restaurant in Punta. Blood sausage just melts in your mouth, beef tripe is very tender and fatty, sweetbread is unbeliavable. I recommend picanha but ask them for a good cut with fat. Baby beef is very nice as well. Try local wine Tannat, it is a perfect choice for any meat. It gets pretty crowded around 8.30 pm and the ambience is very cosy and lively. The concept of open grill kitchen is very thoughtful and makes dining experience even better. If you appreciate good meat you will love this place.

You will love this classic Uruguayan asado restaurant. The meats were excellent as was the service Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5
As Excellent as it can be!! The best meat I’ve ever had in my life, order the godamm baby beef, you won’t regret it. It doesn’t metter the sides you order with, just feel the smoothness of this beauty. This restaurant made me realize the Uruguayan barbecue is much better than the Argentinian. The price is the average of this kind of restaurant, not too cheap, not too pricy. Worth every penny. Been there twice in my 4 day trip.
It´s been years that I visit this restaurant either in Montevideo or Punta. The service and the meat are still very good. But at this time I had a terrible experience. We ordered 2 steaks, both medium. One of them came correct and the other well done, completely gray. I send back and the manager (maybe son of the owner as he was quite young) came back with the steak, saying that he tasted, there was nothing wrong and I should eat that one (same as he cut and tasted). We had an unnecessary discussion comparing the two steaks where the other was pink. He told me that that steak was a different cut and also got gray because of the time it took to send back and forth. I asked to cancel the steak and paid the rest of the bill to find another place to eat - and never go back. It´s sad to see how such a traditional restaurant is ruined by a single arrogant person.
We were a party of 4. The waiter said that the asado was not good today and suggested that we order the cochinillo and tortilla. Both were overcooked, dry and clearly re-heated. The vacío and the chorizos were very good. Food took a long time to arrive and we ordered three wines that were in the menu but they did not have in the cellar. They brought mismatching wine glasses. Better spend your money elsewhere.

It’s a bit pricey for the area but the steaks are the best I had in Uruguay the wine list extensive and well chosen. The room is beautiful and the service very professional
