    Three friends from different countries met for lunch & had an excellent meal. We all had barbecue plates ranging from chicken through ribs through steak, all cooked just right. Friendly service. Good desserts. Highly recommended.

    We had dinner for two on the evening of Monday 11 September. Small and cosy restaurant, nice and helpful staff, but above all exceptional food. The meat is grilled right next to you and the employees are always available to give advice or chat. Ratio of quality, quantity and price among the best found in these (unfortunately too few) days in Amsterdam

    The restaurant has truly international staff, however, none of them were Argentinian (or LatAm), so not sure about authenticity (the empanadas were fried while I believe the Argentinian should be baked?) That said, the service was really nice, smiling, ensuring everything is OK. The food - steaks, chorizo and corn were really nice, the steak sauces were not-so-good. We were offered the a-la-carte menu, but they also have some other similarly priced (or even cheaper) offers on a separate one-page menu without the need to book via The Fork. We didn't feel ripped off because these are still very nice prices for Amsterdam city centre.

    The quality of the food was terrible. I asked for a rib-eye very rare (and I insisted on having it truly blue) and got it overcooked, with tons of nerves. When I told the waiter, he not only ignored me but argued against. We ordered a salad and the ingredients looked expired. Frozen fries and dirty place. Never again!

    FormosaOwner

    First why you eat it.allllll?!! Second he came to order salad.and take discount..and also he eat it alll .why you sit in dirty place more than 3 hour ..???and you order more wine and coffee.

About the restaurant

When you say Argentina, you say meat. Lots of meat. And in Formosa you get that. Rib-eye steak and much more. Tender meat for a tender price, value for money. A fine Argentinian restaurant in the heart of Amsterdam. Also a restaurant with a cozy atmosphere and friendly staff. A place where you can spend a great evening with friends or family.
