    Start to finish we had an outstanding experience! We were greeted by very friendly staff when we arrived early for our reservation and only had to wait a few minutes. When we were sat, our server, Cameron, introduced himself along with several support staff. They we're all very helpful throughout our meal taking excellent care of us. Of course, the food was outstanding and we were pleasantly surprised that when we wanted to split anything that they did that for us in the kitchen and the split portions were quite large. We ended up taking home quite a lot for a second meal at home which was just as great the second time around. My husband's boneless ribeye was the star of the meal - unbelievably delicious! I had the salmon which was cooked just like I like it - medium rare. The potatoes Anna was a great side dish along with the brussel sprouts. For dessert we went with the standard butter pie ala mode and finished every bite - yummy! 5 Stars from us from beginning to end!

    The service was outstanding. They food is very good but the entree portions are not the biggest but they offer fresh bread and their appetizers are very good. We did the oysters and jumbo shrimp and they were very good For entree we choose the wagyu and stuffed salmon. Both were cooked great. Will dine here again

    Our waiter was phenomenal. The Empanada Trio our appetizer was packed with flavor. We ordered The Argentine Parrillada Experience For Two. Definitely more than enough food for 2 people. Drinks were very good (and strong). We order the Black & Bull(Eit) and Argentine Old Fashioned. Atmosphere was amazing, set just right for our weekly date night. Our waiter suggested the bread pudding for dessert, which was by far the best bread pudding we have tasted in a long time. Thank you, butcher and barrel team for an amazing experience!
