El Mate

I really want to love this restaurant but I probably won't come back. The short ribs medium rare was cooked perfectly. However, for a party of four, they charged 20% mandatory tip for sub-par service. On the check it was printed black on white that only parties of 6 or more would have the 20%. When I asked the staff, they simply said that they changed the policy. The medium rare picanha my husband ordered also had much to improve. It was cooked almost well done and the steak was hard to chew. Nevertheless, the short ribs was cooked perfectly, and reminded me of our trips to Argentina. So 3 stars for that.

Was there last night and I am super disappointed! We had a miserable waitress! It took over 10 minutes before anyone approached our table and when she finally did she looked at us and said "are you ready?" No introduction no offering of water NOTHING!!! Oh and did I mention that it was my husband's birthday!!!! So she comes to the table and reluctantly takes our order. Food comes and we eat and when we are done eating,we sit for about 20 minutes and no one comes to clear the table or offer dessert... So I flag down the OTHER waitress and ask for the check. However after biting my tongue and spending $200 I decided to call over who I thought was the owner. I explained to him how unsatisfied I was with the service and he just stood there... No offer of a discount or even a dessert again NOTHING!!! Were we not good enough to be their customers? My daughter who is a food blogger for her college was so taken aback by the absolute lack of hospitality and service especially after growing up in and around the food and beverage industry Sadly our first and last time here..

The food was Awesome, the owners made my son and myself feel welcome and at home. One great place to bring the family or that special someone. I highly recommend it to everyone and sure to come back for more.

The place is a nice size for a small restaurant. The meat was great and so where the drinks. Will recommend to friends.
