Which explains a lot about our temperament. Romantic, passionate, and fiercely loyal, we take care of each other as much as we take care of our products.Rooted in our family’s unique heritage and culture, our natural instinct is to share nothing but the very best food, values and traditions of Argentina among our friends, customers, and colleagues. Generous with our time as well as our portions, we believe that good food and good company go hand in hand… preferably at the same table. Because to really love food is really to love people. To understand our food you first need to understand our meat. So say hello to our legendary Argentinian steaks.
