I cannot say enough about how incredible El Tamarindo café is. We walked here from our hotel on a…read morehot day before embarking on a cruise. We were looking for somewhere to get a very satisfying dinner at a slightly early bird time. We were the first people in the restaurant for dinner and we wondered if the empty place held any bearing on the quality of food. Let me tell you... This was one of the best meals I've ever had while traveling. We were shocked and amazed at the large portions and the incredible flavor. We try to eat high-protein, and that was no problem here. We kept telling the staff to give our compliments to the chef. We had a few drinks, we had a really great long meal, and as we were packing up, more people were flowing in. We had leftovers, but since we were traveling, we couldn't take them with us, so we decided to sit tight until we had finished as much as we could. Worth it!

There was a large party that seemed to cause major delays, and we ended up waiting about an hour for our food. Thankfully, the drinks were strong, so we had a great time catching up while we waited. We started with the guacamole, which was incredibly fresh and addictive. I ordered the Fresh Herbs Swai, and although they were out of the coconut rice, the dish was still flavorful and delicious. We also tried the Cuban 4 Leches cake and flan, and both were pretty good. Despite the long wait, this remains one of my favorite low-key spots. The food never disappoints, and I plan to return whenever I'm in the area.

Absolutely avoid this place- First the staff is…read moredisconnected, non attentive drinks not refilled, no appetizers for the LONG wait -over an hour before the food was delivered.

Wanted to give a huge compliment to the manager on duty Saturday night on 5.30.26. We were…read moresupposed to go to another restaurant. But when my partner asked me what I really felt like I said Casa Playa or Chimney house. So we raced to get there at 9:30ish starving. Good thing we asked the kind manager first if they would still serve us food since they closed at 10.. He was kind enough to tell us they would serve us no problem. Glad we asked as the male server who who wasn't even serving us) was quick to walk by when he saw us, not to greet us but to tell us the kitchen was closed. Then seemed annoyed when the manager confirmed we were ok. Thanks buddy. Thankfully we were being served by the kind male bartender with the female server being sweet enough to bring us menus We made sure to have our order in as soon as asked. The male bartender was great. Friendly and made us feel welcome. I have been to this restaurant many times because I love Chimney house and these are the same owners. So I was truly grateful that the bartender, female server and manager were so kind. The owners do a great job as hiring such great team members. Because of the managers hospitality we asked about future events and have already planned to stay at an air bnb across the street for the upcoming soccer games. Small acts of kindness go a long way for keeping locals happy with your business. The food is always consistently amazing. The ambience is just right with the perfect lighting, set up and views. The team members are always so friendly and great at making you feel welcome. Not to forget- Best lomo saltado and skirt steak! Don't miss out on this gem

Me giving this place a 2-star review is honestly me being nice. The service was horrible…read more We walked in and the restaurant was nearly empty. We were told to sit anywhere, which was fine, but then we ordered 2 waters and a passion fruit margarita and waited almost 30 minutes just to get them. On top of that, the drink order was wrong. She served us what tasted like salty mango juice -- and I say "juice" because there was absolutely no alcohol in it. Then we ordered a simple meal: a few chicken tacos, pork tacos, and an order of chicharrón. Somehow that still took 30-45 minutes, and the order was missing items when it finally arrived. That's crazy for an order of 4 chicken tacos and 4 pork tacos. The tacos honestly weren't even that good either. The only thing that was actually good was the chicharrón. People always say "good food takes time," and sure, that's understandable when a restaurant is busy. But this place wasn't even halfway full. There were plenty of open tables inside and outside, so the wait made no sense -- especially considering the food wasn't worth it.

After ordering sweet tea, we were brought a basket of tortilla chips and some spicy salsa. We ordered guacamole and it was perfect. Onto the main courses: She had the taco trio with black beans/rice and I chose a chile relleno with refried beans/rice. Instead of the usual cheese stuffed poblano pepper I opted for steak + cheese, which also had some veggies in it. Very tasty. El G is a charming place and the servers are nice and efficient. We arrived at 1 pm which we found out was the perfect time. It got very busy later. Can't wait to go back with others.

I am so glad I took a chance on this restaurant because we all agreed it will now become a staple in our rotation of places to eat.

They have a full salad bar and cold bar items at the bar where you can self serve. They also have soups and rice available to be eaten with meats. Same concept as Texas de Brazil, where diners can let the servers know when they are ready to eat more or just not ready by flipping the token to show red or green side. The servers will stop by the side of the table with various meats cooked to different temperatures to offer to diners. You can pass if you don't want or you can let them know how many slices you would like. The interior seemed really nice and cleanly maintained. They also have fried yuca, plantains, fried cheese that servers will bring to the side of your table and you can ask for however much you want. To me, this was like upgraded version of all you can eat. I really enjoyed the atmosphere, the food, and the hospitality. If something was lacking, I didn't notice it because all the other things that matter, like customer service and hospitality more than made up for it. I would definitely come back again in the near future with the rest of the family. Thank you Lasso Gaucho Brazilian Steakhouse for such a fantastic first time dining experience. The parking is super limited. Just valet park. It's under $15 and it's not like we spend money on valet parking everyday. Please make sure to show your appreciation to the valet driver! Please let me know ow what you thought!
