It was date night. I was really looking forward to dinner at one of my favorite restaurants…read more I'm being a bit generous with the three star review because two or three previous visits have warranted five stars each. Our server came by while I was busily chewing and I couldn't respond when he asked my partner - who eats simply and rarely complains - how everything was. Tough, that's how mine was. Couldn't get the message out as he left too fast. Never mind, I thought. I'll catch him next time I see him. Unfortunately, he never looked my way again. Four or five times I tried to flag him down, and four or five times he didn't notice me. I kept chewing - and chewing, I'd eaten most of my large baked potato and nearly half of my steak kebabs (and had given two chunks of steak to my date). He agreed that it was tough, and complained that his meal was cold. I finally flagged the server down and he argued with me that 1.) he had asked and 'we' said everything was good. I told him *I* never got the chance to respond. 2.) I'd eaten one of the skewers. Well duh! I kept trying to find a tender piece! He asked if I wanted a new serving and because my partner was finished I said, 'no'. He asked what I wanted him to do. I suggested one free meal next time we came in. He came back and had taken ten euros off the bill. I was happy that he'd adjusted the bill a little. I don't feel it was adequate, but it was something. I showed him my Yelp review of the restaurant from our last trip to Spain to back up what I'd told him, and let him know I was not trying to get a free meal. I'd much rather have had the good meal I'd looked forward to. As to ambiance, I'd always enjoyed Patagonia and was delighted that we were going to eat there that night. It's a pretty dining room with nice decor. Because of the prior great experiences, we MAY go back, but I doubt if we will on this extended trip to Spain. And if I do go back, I probably will not order steak at Patagonia STEAK HOUSE!

My husband ordered what was shown on the menu as seared tuna however he received overly cooked, gray tuna that tasted as if it had been reheated after having spoiled. When we complained the waiter simply stated that is how they serve the dish and walked away. The ox tail was hard and did not fall off the bone. The pork was dry and overcooked. And, the prices were exuberant considering the poor quality of the food. All in all, every dish seemed preheated, overcooked, and just plain awful.

Had mussels to start and they tasted like they had been steamed in dish water. The steak on the bone was promised to be the best and at 89 euro per kilo should have been. it was tough and mostly fat. the potatoes were bland and we had to pay extra for cold sauce out of a bottle. The other two steaks were meant to be fillets but most definitely weren't. in and out within an hour, one drink each because they could not be bothered to ask if we wanted another. When asked we fed back our comments politely and the manager did not want to know. He was extremely rude and stood over us until we paid. I would avoid at all costs !

I'd never have thought to slather anchovies with butter, but here you have it. We continued with roasted artichokes, which were both tender and tasty. Then we shared half of the advertised "vaca nacional," or "state cow", presumably meat from a cow from Spain, which was more than enough for two people- unless you enjoy 500+ grams to yourself. Ordered "al punto" or "medium rare", it was served to perfection, and accompanied by a side salad and a side of one's choice (we chose fries). We washed it all down a local white wine, perhaps better paired with the anchovies, but nonetheless satisfying with the steak. Also, a "complimentary" bread plate, complete with aioli and tomato purée, was provided at an additional charge of €2.50 per person. While anticipated in Spain, I can't help but find this a tactless addition to otherwise nice meals. We finished our dinner with orders of the torrija (similar to French toast) and strawberry sorbet, respectively. My friend said the torrija was very good, and the sorbet hit the spot. My only complaint of the evening is that toward the end of our meal a male server came out as though he were the cook- it soon became apparent that he was not- and asked every table except for ours how their meal was, at which point I could not help but notice that at each of those tables sat a man, and the question was directed at them. I guess women should just be satisfied to have the freedom to dine out at all.

We came here for a surprise dinner party for a friend's birthday and we did not know how many people were going to show up or what the restaurant was like. First off, the restaurant is situated in a mostly residential area and was a 10 minute walk from the nearest tram station. When we got there it was like coming upon an oasis with it's beautiful terrace and almost militaristic organization of solid wooden tables and shiny cutlery. In the end approximately 25 people showed up for the surprise birthday party and we were seated amongst two extra large tables which had extended multiple times by the staff. The service throughout was professional and friendly. The food. Just about everything that flew out of the kitchen was spectacular! First we had some salads, one being fennel with parmigiano cheese and another being a garden salad which was made of vegetables grown by the restaurant itself. Both were delicious but the fennel with parmigiano cheese blew my mind; I never could have fathomed this combination and they executed it perfectly, cooking the fennel to a delicate but still substantive texture in order to pair with the bits of cheese. Wow! Steak tartar was cut small and spiced large, with what I think included smashed capers. The lady had grilled monkfish which was huge in taste and size, the best "rape" (monkfish in Spanish) she'd ever had. I had looks and tastes of the pork ribs, beef ribs, and chuleton, all of which were of a very high quality and mastered on a grill. Fries were above average. The Enrique Mendoza monastrell was an excellent local red to go with all the bold food. Small mistake- the ice cream, which was fine but not homemade or anything special. This place is a bit pricey. Simple dishes were in the 15-20 range, some meats and seafood in the 22-35 range, and some others in the 80-120 per kg range. Our share of the bill for 2, with appetizers, wine, beer, coffee, 2 entrees, and dessert was €70.
