4/10I've been to this restaurant before and was very excited to try it with the fork. When I arrived I was completely alone. Instead of taking some time to explain the menu or recommend a dish, the waiter preferred to smoke outside. I ordered a steak medium, which arrived overly done. The cut was fairly thin and lacked flavor. I was offered a side so I went with the grilled potatoes, which turned out to be two slices of a pototato almost burned and without any type of sauce or condiment. To round things up, I oteded a shot. When I received the bill I was charged for a double shot even though I clearly ordered the small one and to my big surprise I was also charged extra for the sad pototato. Despite 30% discount, I ended up paying more than at comparable restaurants in the area with better food and nicer staff. Not. recommended

Pero que nada no entendemos por qué escribes en inglés cuando sabemos que hablas perfectamente castellano y que te dirigiste a nosotros en este idioma. Lo que realidad querías tú es que no se te cobrara prácticamente nada vamos para que nos vamos a engañar y por esto nos penalizas. Realmente clientes como tú no son aceptables en ningún local y lamento al que le toque tener que atenderte

7.5/10Walked in and mentioned the fork reservation. Got a table. Ordered for food. Pakistani chef helped me sort things out for ordering. Delicious sausages for starters, salad in a plate ( mix it before you eat ), I was almost full by then. But went ahead with a steak. I am someone who eats wagyu steaks and they didn’t have angus which I badly wanted to taste. So steak was ok. Moreover at the end when I got the bill they billed me some 77 euros for the meal without any discounts. I had to remind them about the fork discount and finally got the bill corrected to some 56 euros ( I didn’t like this part ). Paid and left. I would have rated them high if I had got the discounts in the bill without mentioning about it. And of course if I had angus steak. Otherwise everything was good.

8/10We had 1. Fillet steak. (Very good) though one of our party ordered medium and he got rare. But steak was flavorful, well cooked, and our sides was very nice. 2. Creole sausage. Excellent 3. Empanada . Very good 4. Carpacio. Very good. 5. Chiken milanese. Good. 6. Burger. Average and disapponting that there was no bun.. (they should say so on menu) Overall i recommend this place (with fork discount) since food was pretty good and ambience nice and service is quite good and fast. Without fork discount. I would say it is way over priced for what u get. I gave it 8/10. That is a fair representation.

7.5/10Dishes (meat, grilled vegetables) were really good. But waiting time was too long. Table wasn’t totally clean. It’s not a place to visit twice.

9.5/10This is by far the best restaurant I've the pleasure to visit in Barcelona. Excellent entrecot and a delicious panqueque de Manzana were the top of the dinner

6.5/10Prices are a bit too high for the quality and service you get. 35€+ per person for a parrillada TO SHARE is way above normal price in this kind of restaurant
El Argentino • Owner
I don't know which restaurants you will go to, when a fast food menu is worth €20 that you complain about our price is comical and inadmissible

5/10I did not enjoy the meat , it was not to cut and not to chew, even though I ordered it medium rare. With discount it was at least not so expensive. Staff was friendly

5/10Not clear what was discounted and the waiter wrote a random number on the bill by hand
El Argentino • Owner
Llevamos decenas de miles de clientes atendidos y cobrados de esta manera, e Es clarísimo, la comida lleva el 30% la bebida nada, se separan los TIKETs y se suman, verifíquelo antes de dejar un comentario sembrando dudas, ya demasiado esfuerzo es hacer el descuento para que después venga a escribir esto

7/10Meat is good but not worthy, can be better. Overall everything was well cooked, but we think raw material can be better. Customer experience was average, not great. And house wine was not good at all, for the price you pay and considering all the excellent wines that Argentina has, this is a must to improve.

ustesd eligio el vino mas basico de la carta, o sea el mas economico, por ello es el vino de la casa, en nuestra bodega tenemos vinos argentinos que llegan a 220, logicamnete que la calidad esta relacionada al precio

About this restaurant
En la céntrica calle de Aragón de Barcelona está el restaurante El Argentino, sin lugar a dudas, uno de los mejores sitios en la ciudad condal para comer la comida típica del país sudamericano. Su especialidad es la carne a la parrilla aunque también el buen ambiente que reina dentro del local. Lo ideal es pedirse carne pero antes puedes compartir unos entrantes como una Ensalada fresca tipo italiana con algo de pasta. Y ya, a continuación, atreverte con su especialidad siempre tan de buena calidad como un auténtico Asado de tira, el Chorizo criollo a la parrilla, el Matambre arrollado, el Bife de cuadril argentino o el Vacío de ternera al asador. Disponen en El Argentino de una maravillosa y seleccionada carta de vinos para acompañar sus platos. Como curiosidad, el local está decorado con fotos de personajes ilustres del país en el ámbito del fútbol, la política, las artes y las ciencias. Un curioso lugar donde pasar una fantástica velada. ¡Reserva ya!
