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.
El Argentino • Owner
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

5.5/10Provoleta was tasteless and the meat was a little bit off. I could smell the putrescine. Vitello tonato was fine. The bread and tomato was ok. The discount was made without asking. They gave us some shots on the house.

10/10This was my first time going there, and I was just amazed with the quality of the beef, that was on point. The service was flawless too, form the beginning they gave us a welcome cocktail which was great. The price might seem kind of high but it's totally worth it, you are definitely getting what you paid for. I totally recommend this restaurant, I had a great time.

4/10The food was ok, but nothing extraordinary. We had higher expectations conaidering the reviews that it has. We were 6 persons and had two reservations because the app doesn’t allow to book for more than 4 people and they couldn’t’ accomodate two table for us, even though the restaurant had only one large table booked beside us.
El Argentino • Owner
the reservation with a discount is up to 4 what happens is that you reserved 2 tables to have a discount all, in reality what has bothered you is not imposing your will, even so the discount was made to you, your comment seems inadmissible and ill-intentioned , and another thing the place was filled afterwards, until never..

5.5/10Their customer service is great. They gave us two small welcome drinks and they speak very well and educated. However, the famous milanesa de ternera came split in two, very disappointing they were two small milanesas. Also, they charged us almost 4€ per small water bottle without tax! I would say the service is very good but their prices are rather expensive.
El Argentino • Owner
Nos resulta un poco incomprensible que comente en inglés cuando usted es argentino, nos da un cuatro en la calidad de las comidas simplemente por el tamaño de una milanesa, esto también nos llama la atención acaso que no sea del tamaño que usted esperaba implica que la calidad de la misma fuera mala? Por otra parte lo vimos muy contento en el restaurante realmente hay cosas que no superan, soy la persona que lo atendió…

10/10Lovely classic Argentinian steakhouse - incredible steaks: seasoned well, cooked to perfection and great cuts of meat too. Polite English-speaking waiters were very helpful. Finally, free drinks and bread made it a perfect evening

2/10This restaurant was the worst dinner experience I’ve had in my life: extremely slow service (restaurant was half full), waiter took wrong order, average food quality, horrible ambiance with annoying live “piano” show...Not recommended!
El Argentino • Owner
What an exaggeration level, I regret that he did not like anything, but now that of the pianist reveals a significant lack of sensitivity and culture on his part, the pianist is an artist with a huge talent, an internationally known artist to whom we pay a lot money, if that bothers you, you are definitely not the type of customer we are looking for

3/10I imagine the ratings are pumped up... There is no other way to explain the high grades in comments. Temperature of the interior too high, food average, staff confused and inattentive. But the best for the last, they bring you the bill and it's full price. Waiter claims you didn't specifically said you reserved with The Fork. But we did, and said not to one but two staff members. Cashier doesn't want to change the bill and does it with the greatest spurn after some 20 min. Oh yes, if that was not enough, I guess the cockroach on the table we were offered at the beginning pushed it over the top (but hey, we got another table).

uploaded 2300 comments? of clients who have come to our premises just like you? Do you really think that? As for the discount I apologize, that's right, but otherwise your comment is quite bad intention

7/10We had the reservation at 17:30 so there were only a couple tables occupied. The 30% discount helped. The steak was well seasoned although the entrecot cut had a lot of fat. The service was very slow. Not sure why but many restaurants, this one included, like to have music quite loud.
