I first came here two years ago with friends. I was inviting a group of five, so I decided to order the parillada. This dish is more of a grill served at our table, and it came with a variety of meats: various beef cuts as well as sausages. For dessert, I had the flan, which was slightly sweeter than I usually have them, but it was delicious. We were sat at a larger table on the second floor, which felt like being back home in my dining room. It was semi-private, which was nice. This time around, I came with the girlfriend. After driving for 30 minutes from TJ's Zona Rio, we arrived at this fine restaurant in Rosarito. Parking was along the main avenue, at the front of the building. We walked in, and we were sat on the first floor. I ordered steak, medium, as did the girlfriend. Our sides were garden salad, and cheese fondue. I ordered some coffee and lemonade on mineral water, which were both okay. Our dessert was an order of empanadas. I liked the beef empanadas the best, followed by the ones with cheese. Personally, I prefer the parillada over the individual steak plate, but both hit the spot well. This is a decent Argentinian grill in the city of Rosarito. Come check them out. read more

El Gaucho Argentino - Argentine Near Me - Playas de Rosarito, BCN

We usually go to Chamuyo in El Valle fort our traditional Argentinian asado. Decided to take a chance on this place in Rosarito. Everything about this experience is going to get us to return. Impeccable customer service with every request being met. The fire pit- asador is in the clear view, watching the grill master was an added treat to the dining. The asado tradicional is meant for two but there was plenty of food that finishes cooking at table side. Our extras included a baked potato, green salad, a beef empanada and a chorioan. The pacing of the food was well calculated and the bottle of magoni, Cabernet- Malbec from one of our favorite wineries fave it a special touch. Price is worth it! We will schedule another stop in our return read more

Excellent menu , including wines. Very authentic and delicious offerings of both food and wine. I had excellent lamb chops. The table near me had a grill with various meats brought out to share between four people, just like I had at the bottom of the world! It's in a new location right on the highway and a beautiful restaurant. read more

Great ambiance and fantastic service. We ordered the large meat plated with arachera and rib eye steak, That was great. It comes with a salad pretty standard could be better and a very small serving of fries (they really should double up on fries not enough for the large platter that feeds 4 to 5 people). We also had the salmon plate that was ok. The beef empanadas were very good. This a great place to dine the 4 stars is only because I think the side dishes that come with the large family meat platter could be much better but over all we will be returning to try some more dishes. read more

This place had all the meats, the prices were American prices. The empanadas were really good, the steak was also great. The ribeye was massive and the veggies were simple, but really good. The fries could have been more crispy and the service could have been better, the waiter wasn't as attentive. The margaritas were really good too. read more

Great little place. Very friendly service and GREAT food! Their empanadas are delicious! We ordered their Tableada and it was enough for the 3 of us. (Girls). Very tender meats not to mention their chimichuri which you can buy a bottle and take home. (We did). Super recommend if you want to try something other than the taco places etc. read more

Best steak in Town! We had Orlando as our waiter. He patiently went through the menu with us explaining everything and answering all of our questions. My friend ordered 2 empanadas which I tried. The spinach one was my favorite and if I hadn't tasted that one I would say the cheese especial empanada was my favorite. I have a feeling I will lake all variations. I ordered the fillet mignon, it came perfectly cooked and was so tender. I had it with the fries which were nice and hot when they arrived. We finished with the little cookies that were filled with caramel. They tasted freshly baked and were amazing. Will definitely bring my husband next time he's down. read more

Nefthali served us and helped us get served right before they closed, or else it was food to go but because of him he didn't loose us as clients! Great food and wine read more

This place should be named "El Gaugo." My husband and I went out for "date" night. We wanted a peaceful and enjoyable time together. Instead, we were terribly bothered. Time wasted. Money wasted. Be careful ordering here. Make sure the waiter knows you want the prices on the menu. Double check your bill and make sure you say something if you see a discrepancy. Our bill did not reflect the menu prices. It was manipulated without our permission. Our check was over 4,000 pesos, $223 USD --- over $100 inflated. On top of that, we were generous to give a 20% tip of 800 pesos ($47 USD). We ordered from the menu two margaritas (130 pesos each), one mezcalita (220 pesos), one glass of wine (120 pesos), two empanadas (70 pesos each! - they're not flown in from Argentina!), the meat platter for two (Tableanas 1870 pesos) and one tiramisu (185 pesos). This does not add up to $4,000 pesos or $223 USD. We ordered the barbecue for two people, The "Tableanas" at 1870 pesos, about $110 USD. It comes with one ribeye, arrachera, one sausage and another piece of meat. The check came with a surprise of 2700 pesos for just the meat! The waiter took back the bill and the new total for just the meat was 2500 pesos. The waiter said we chose prime instead of choice. That was not true because had I known there was an up charge for this, I would have declined. This grade option isn't stated on the menu and the waiter did not tell us. USDA meat grades are not in Mexico. Also, shouldn't all the meat be "prime" at $110 USD? The margaritas on the menu are 130 pesos. Our bill said they cost 320 pesos. Paid the bill of $223 USD because we didn't want to ruin our night and make a fuss even though we wanted to say the bill was not true to the menu prices. For this price, we should have crossed the border to the US to dine at Mastro's Ocean Club. The next day, we returned to "El Gaugo" because we felt taken advantage. We asked for the manager. The waiter who served us the night prior came over to ask "what happened?" We explained the price discrepancies. I asked to get a copy of the check. The manager was listening to the waiter more than us. The waiter did not tell us he was adding Don Julio 70 to mango margaritas. No one mixes Don Julio 70 with margaritas! I explained this to the manager. The waiter argued that we ordered it when we didn't. The manager backed the argument of the waiter about the extra cost of the "prime" meat. I told him the menu should be clear about the meat grade. The manager was trying to add up our bill by himself but I suggested let's go through the bill together and you can return the difference to us. The waiter was arguing and deflecting. The manager said you ate everything and you want your money back? That is not what we wanted. We didn't eat everything and brought our leftovers back to prove it. The manager was getting frustrated after the waiter was arguing and we were trying to explain. It was ridiculous. Finally, the manager became hostile toward us and said, " l'll give you all your money back but don't ever come here again." I was stunned. I insisted we just wanted the difference. He gave us 1,000 pesos without taking consideration the exchange rate. We paid in US dollars. Shame on the waiter Orlando, for manipulating the bill and shame on the manager for not listening or understanding us. Telling us to not return is disgusting. He should be grateful that we brought this to his attention and additionally, he should make the menu clear! He should have said come back again do we can make it right for you. We spent a fortune at this restaurant. We'll tell all of our friends in Rosarito and California that we will never return to this place that over salts their meats, and over charges prices for ungraded meat posing to be graded. Also, we will tell our friends that our bill was manipulated without our permission. We know better. Ridiculous. Check your bill at "El Gaugo." Or better yet, go to another steak restaurant in Rosarito. read more

Oh. My. God. AMAZING This is one of my favorite restaurants in Mexico. Right off of the highway and very easy to get to. My partner and I ordered empenadas, parrillada Argentine, and chajá. Nice, romantic ambiance with great customer service. They speak English here too. The parrillada Argentine was both delicious and a really fun, memorable experience. They give you what looks like a cast iron plate, kept constantly hot. The meat is already cooked but is kept at just the right temperature thanks to the evenly distributed heat. The meat was delicious, not too fatty and packed with flavor. If you don't want to splurge on the parrillada or other pricey meat dishes, please, at least try the empanada. It is very affordable and is my favorite empanada that I have ever tried in my life. I have gone to multiple countries in central and south America. Even if you're so full you could burst, it's worth it, if only for a few bites. I wasn't a fan of the chajá. It tasted like it had a ton of whipped cream, and the peaches were a little syrupy. This place is too good not to get a 5 star though! It blows Nido's out of the water. read more

Love this steakhouse. Wonderful decor, excellent service and OUTSTANDING Arrachera! We will be back

The food was good but although I felt taken advantage of, I asked the waiter what he suggest and the meal he did suggest was actually for four or five people, but it seemed like he cared about selling or maybe he made a commission on what he sold but for two people simple dinner it was over $165 this is Mexico, not United States. Will I go back or refer my friends? No, I will not. read more

Excelente spot in Rosarito , food is great, I love the ambiance the decorations , they also have "Mate" traditional Argentina Tea. Very tasty. Empanadas are recommended and the steak they cooked traditional charcoal. The service is great they very attentive and polite. Thank you ! read more

Came down for an early dinner. The argentinian pararilla for 2 was more like for three and great btw. Service was super excellent, our waiters were constantly checkin in, unlike the U.S. where you only see them 4 times: drinks/order/check in/check. Our waiters, there were at least 4, checked in constantly. The salmon dish was well served with veggies as aell. read more

On the menu I ordered from the cuts section; CORTES TABLEADA, 2 compliments of Salad and their flavorful, Potato Salad. Comes with Tender and Juicy, Ribeye Steak, Lomo, Arrachera, Chorizo. The best steaks I've ever had! The salt is imported from Argentina. The steaks are charred in the wood fire, cooked to perfection! The chorizo is homemade which bursts with flavor! Their Queso Fundido accompanied by two bone marrows, served with fresh bread baguettes are the perfect savory blend! Accompanied by an incredible glass of Syrah from Argentina making the perfect pairing! The salad and potato salad also delicious! The service is welcoming and outstanding! The ambiance is all together inviting! I couldn't rave more about this place! It's Just a couple minutes South of Rosarito in a small town called Popotla! It's a must try! I can't enforce it enough! Do not leave Baja without trying this delicious hotspot! read more

Love the food, the prices and the staff. Recommend the tomahawk steak and empanadas too.

Good food, good ambiance. The empanadas are highly recommended. Service was good as well. They took US dollars or pesos.

Meat was delish. Reasonably priced compared to LA. But the ambiance was just off. We got seated upstairs and it felt like I was being interrogated...all white with bright bright lights. And on top of that service was slow. So even though the food was good I wouldn't return. Oh and on top of that I guess they've moved a couple times so none of their addresses listed online were accurate..we had to call the restaurant directly for directions. read more
