I enjoy reviewing places I can recommend highly, and I am happy to recommend this restaurant highly to all of you.

First, the food was delicious. The Cordobesa Familiar (meat platter for 4) was ample for our group - along with the sides, we were stuffed. Chicken, skirt steak, pork, and ribs, with rice and beans and plantains and grilled vegetables. We ate every bite. I could have eaten a whole dish just of the grilled cauliflower, if they would serve that - the little I had was buttery and roasted to perfection. I also thought a papaya dipping sauce was a real standout. It may have come with our appetizers (fried cheese, and beef empanadas, crunchy and not greasy) or just been provided to the table. I happily dipped empanadas and meats in it until every bit was gone.

Second, we also liked the atmosphere and the service; nice Argentinean theme and very friendly service, attentive and helpful. Maybe an unconventional Christmas Eve dinner, but we all enjoyed it.

Last, the Covid-19 safety protocols were followed carefully, which was reassuring, as we had intended to eat outside but arrived to find staff moving chairs indoors as rain began. So we ate indoors once we showed proof of vaccination, and mask wearing was excellent. The whole place was pretty, clean, upscale, and not nearly as expensive as I had expected.
