Fodor's Review:

Red meat reigns at this Argentinian grill in the downtown Nahalat Shiva neighborhood. The stone building with interior arches and a flagstone floor has wooden tables and ceiling beams. Nibble on great chicken wings while you wait for your steak: try the entrecôte or the chorizo (a sirloin cut; no relation to the sausage of the same name, though that's also available) with a parsley-based chimichurri sauce. A house specialty is the long-cooking "asado," a boneless rib. There are chicken options, a kids' menu, and (for non-carnivores) salad, a couple of pasta dishes, and a vegetarian platter.
