8.5/10It's a busy neighbourhood restaurant. The food was good, but there was no presentation and the plates were cold so the food gotmcold quickly.

10/10The restaurant is located in the heart of the city, making it easily accessible and convenient to locate. We were impressed by the excellent quality of the food, which came at a very reasonable price. The service was top-notch, earning a solid five-star rating from us. Overall, we had a highly positive experience and would definitely recommend it. (Do try their baked potato with sour cream!)

9.5/10We went to this restaurant during our brief visit to Amsterdam. We liked it so much (our daughter loved the ribs!) that we came back the next day.

9/10We went for steaks and were really pleasantly surprised! The portions were good, the steaks cooked perfectly, and the sauces were tasty. The atmosphere is a bit kitsch, but that can also have its charm. Would recommend if you’re in the centre and looking for a broad menu and some good steaks!

6.5/10The quality of the meat was very good, but we asked for carpaccio and it didn’t deserve it. The staff and the service were very kind but the atmosphere of the restaurant was a little uncomfortable due to the music was very high. We did the reservation online and we had a 30% discount. Anyway we recommend the restaurant.

7/10Steaks are excellent. Service is fine but could be better, waiter is asking too many questions. Ambience is, 4/10 Music is very irritating. Why play pop, instead of soft Latin?

10/10Three 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.

10/10We 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

8.5/10The 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.

2/10The 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!
Formosa • Owner
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.

7/10Not the best meat I have ever eaten in my life but well priced. We took a mix for two for 65 € - includes a kilogram of meat, salad and 2 potatoes in foil. The meat was dryish and not juicy, it is better not to order chicken breast at all - it was awful. The only thing they do well with meat is the ribs. Sauces have added to the bill.

9/10We came for the meat- so that was good, as expected in the Argentinian restaurant! Took carpaccio, sausages and steak- well done qualitative meat. For me maybe more diversity in spices would be better, but you can always ask to add!
