Gaucho Mercado is an impressive restaurant that offers a great dining experience. The service is exceptional, with the staff, including the manager, going above and beyond to ensure customers have an enjoyable time. The food is generally praised, with the Al asador and Wagyu tomahawk being particularly delightful. However, some customers have noted that the short rib empanadas were a bit dry, and the ribeye steak had too much fat. The ambiance is also highly regarded, creating a pleasant atmosphere for diners. While the prices may be considered slightly high by some, the overall consensus is that Gaucho Mercado is a great choice for both casual and special occasions.
The spinach & cheese empanada is worth it. For the price, there could be a bit more chicken on the brochette. The veggie side is yummy, less onions & more mushrooms would be great. Delicious dulce de leche flan. Our server is very friendly & accommodating.
