They have a wide selection of items and is a great restaurant for a large party. I ordered the salmon dinner. Each meal is served with their house salad. The dressing they use is delicious! It's a honey mustard base but it's not overpowering and is very light and refreshing. If you get anything from this review please please please try the crujiente de platano for dessert! It's so delicious, has great texture from the crunchy cookie/wafer crujiente, and is still very light! It was definitely the table's show stopper for the evening. The service is incredible. They are generous and very attentive. They have menus in both English and Spanish. I believe our waiters name was Alejandro. He was very kind and did his best to communicate with us in casual conversation throughout the evening. I'd highly recommend this establishment!

Service -- was a bit at a lower level -- nicest server ever, but forgot a few things here and there... but still, incredibly genuine and nice, and nothing that was more than a first world problem. HINT: Avoid the MIXED DRINKS here -- the ones we got were NOT good at all, and we returned them (which the server took back -- we asked him if he could, and he said yes... so that's why this review still has 5 stars even though the server missed a few other things). Would I go back? Absolutely! The prices here are INCREDIBLY awesome (especially for the USD conversion), but even for Mexican pesos. Food is AWESOME. Ambiance -- a bit loud, but awesome, also.

It was located around the corner from an Airbnb I was staying at and was surrounded on a fairly walkable strip by other sophisticated eats. This visit was a nice evening date where we grabbed lamb tacos, drinks, and empanadas. The lamb tasted as if it had been marinated by the gods; it was tender, melted in your mouth, and carried a flavor that I'll never forget. The empanadas were perfectly filled and made fresh to order. I highly recommend anyone visit this place for drinks, empanadas, and tacos. The ambience was sleek and comforting and the food is something I reminisce about often.

Once you walk in, you're warmly greeted by the staff and the ambiance. The decor was strange with quirky wallpaper and art but somehow worked. As we made our way to the bigger tables in the back, we came across an atrium like dining area with tons of plants and open air near the grill. Not only is it beautiful, but it helps to make sure you won't walk out after dinner smelling like a barbecue! Much appreciated! We were handed a couple different menus - one for drinks and one for food (neither of which were enough for each of us to have one, so we shared). I will say the menu was a bit confusing since there are so many pages, each with only a few items on it. Also, we didn't know much, if anything, about the different Argentinian steak specialities which I think contributed to our confusion. As our orders finally started to arrive we realized that these portions are MASSIVE. None of our selections notated that they came with anything, but most of our came with a salad (also huge) and mine ended up coming with some homemade potato chips. Yum! I ordered the Bifo de Lomo which is a tenderloin (think filet mignon) and it was slap your mama good! It came sizzling in butter... need I say more? It comes a little rare and you can't change the temperature (I asked for medium rare, but they said it comes the way it comes). No biggie though, I just cut the steak up as soon as I get it and laid the slices on the sizzling plate. It cooked perfectly! Since we weren't sure if any of the dishes came with sides, my husband and I split the potato puree (otherwise known as mashed potatoes). They were also really delicious! We ended up having waaaaay too much food but the experience was amazing and my meal stands as one of the best steaks I've ever had. Definitely, DEFINITELY check this spot out when you are in Guadalajara!

We got there and they had immediately an available table, right after us, the waiting list started. The place is a nice modern style restaurant with just about 20 tables. Our waiter was Gris.

Three of us decided to have the capellini with Seared Tuna, my mom went for a fettuccini alfredo, nephew chose the chicken cannelloni, and my nice wanted something diet approved, so she had the chicken (I have to confess I don't remember the name) everything was really good, with the exception of the chicken, that one was lacking a bit of flavor (diet approved right?). And yes, we're one of those families that we taste everyone's food :P This place is right in the heart of the restaurant area at Andares shopping mall, which makes it also a very nice place, where you can also enjoy watching plenty of people walk by and you can also have a nice walk after lunch and just kill some time. If you have people in your party that likes pasta, this is a place to visit!
