    We visited Baqueano in mid Dec for our 10 year anniversary and it was an absolutely incredible experience. The entire atmosphere and feel of the place was intimate meaning service was attentive. The food was 1000/10 exceptional, highly recommend the tasting menu which is fantastic value for money and left us full. Despite reviewing this more than 2 weeks past our visit I’m still in awe of what we ate! The team made every effort to make our special occasion feel special - thank you so so much, I can’t wait to return.

    Outstanding meal all around. Service, atmosphere and food were amazing. Highly recommend the artisan bread appetizer. The dips and butter for the bread were so delicious. The filet was incredibly tender, perfectly seasoned and cooked perfectly. Once again, the sauce work for the meal was on point. The baked potatoes and salad were fantastic as well. High class food served in a beautiful but casual atmosphere. You’ll feel comfortable dressed in jeans or in business attire .

    Amazing steaks with brilliant service in a charming and intimate location. We had the taster menu with wine and were blown away. Loved the explanation provided by the helpful staff for each dish and wine. Their enthusiasm for the food comes across and is well deserved. It tasted amazing. From the starter cocktail to dessert selection you won’t be disappointed. And as for the steaks they are simply top notch, and I’ve had a few over the years! Well worth it -a real gem.

    Food was delicious but our barbecue specialities were ordered medium-rare and delivered at the table medium-well. That's not what I would expect from such a restaurant As apologies we received one additional part of the 3 types of meat for free. Not enough for a dish that costs 160£

    Had the most incredible meal here. The food was unreal but the staff and owner were so friendly and chatty, it really made the experience even better. The steak was unreal and we would love to come back. 100% recommend.

    We came here for my partner's birthday, and had such a wonderful special evening. We shared the tasting menu, and really enjoyed trying all the different (huge!) steaks, desserts and starters - in particular the empanadas from their new restaurant. The host was wonderfully welcoming, very informative about each course, and even took the time to write down information on the ingredients and where to get them for my partner to source in the future. My partner felt very special, and we're already planning our next visit. You can buy vouchers, which we'll be gifting to the in-laws! Thank you!

    I now know why it's difficult to get a table here. The food and service is exceptional and the room has a nice ambiance. The 12 once sirloin I had was probably to big but my goodness it was amazing! This is now on our favourite list 👍

    Having had quite a few meals out, there have not been many that have left me speechless. Words cannot express how good this meal was! I felt instantly welcomed by the waiting staff who made me feel like I was having a family meal rather than being out in a restaurant. They took the time to talk us through each course on the tasting menu, which was stunning, they explained how the wine complimented each course. Once they realised it was my birthday they made a real fuss of us. Thank for your an amazing meal, we will be back!

    A must visit! I couldn't recommend this restaurant more highly not for the high quality steak but also for its exceptional service and ambience. This was the best steak I've had ever. Given the past reviews, I decided to have el trio (sausages &black pudding). They were juciy and full of flavour. They have a good selection of argentinian wines to go alongside your meal.This place does get booked up quickly so get your reservation in early!

    Wow! This place did not disappoint. From the moment you step through the front door you are welcomed warmly as if meeting old friends, and the restaurant is small enough to feel quite intimate, even though we were a group of 8 celebrating a birthday. We had the tasting menu with wine pairing and every single course was cooked to perfection, seasoned and flavoured well and was delicious! The portion sizes are generous, so make sure you don’t snack beforehand. The service was absolutely spot on. The right level of attention and humour, and knowledge of the wine and dishes. And they made my 80 year old Nana feel wonderful for her birthday. There isn’t anything I can fault with Baqueano. Even the washroom was immaculately clean and well maintained. I can’t recommend this place highly enough. You must go! Thank you Baqueano x

    The best meal I've had out in quite some time, you get what you pay for! Around £80 per head allowed the wife and myself to have a couple of starters (shared), a fillet (small in size, BIG in flavour), a ribeye (large and epic), couple or sides, bottle of red, espresso martinis and a pud pud. Service was excellent; fast, friendly and warming. I really recommend this place.

    The steak was incredible, everything about the meal was perfect. It’s surprisingly rare to find a restaurant that cooks a steak so well and exactly to your preference… and the cut was incredible, potentially the best fillet I've had. The service was amazing - everything was well explained and we were well looked after despite how busy it was and food came out quite promptly but not lacking in quality. Drinks were also prompt and never lacking in quality. Thank you for having us :)

    Amazing service and amazing food. Best steak I had in the UK. Provoleta & sausages as starters were just perfect. Love it! Don't think too much, just go!

    I had the pleasure of dining here tonight as a solo traveller while in Brighton for a conference. I chose this restaurant because of its incredible reviews and it certainly lived up to the reputation. It can sometimes feel daunting dining alone, but I was made to feel so welcome, wonderful hospitality, lovely small venue so not overwhelming. The food was absolutely amazing. Would definitely come back if I’m in Brighton again.

    One of the best steaks I’ve ever had in the UK. Perfectly cooked, fantastic cut. The meal from start to finish was top class, the owners/staff were incredibly friendly and helpful. Authentic to Argentinian cooking and a great gem.

    The tasting menu was well worth the price. I've visited a fair few Argentinian restaurants in the UK and abroad, and it must be said, this place is No. 1 on the list of the best. Great service, exceptional food and great portions. You won't be disappointed

    Just love this place. The service and wine list are exceptional. The steak is always delicious but you really have to try the sausages. My God the sausages are just too delicious! You definitely need to book and be prepared to spend a bit - you will be rewarded with the very best meal. Hope to be back soon.

    Lovely place from every single angle. Amazing food, lovely service … reasonable priced. I went with my family: wife and two children (12 and 9). Adriana couldn’t have been more charming and welcoming. We’ll come back for sure. Simply highly recommended!

    Been a Miller & Carter fan for years! Until I tried Argentinian Steak last night! What can I say it is the best steak I have ever tried. The atmosphere was exceptional! Will be back here when I'm in Brighton next time! Highly recommended!

    Such a wonderful restaurant. Really lovely staff, super helpful and chatty when we wanted it. The food was incredible, the steak was perfectly cooked and all the starters were delicious. Wine list wasn’t too expensive and really good choices. Absolutely would recommend anyone coming here. Brilliant steak restaurant with lovely atmosphere.

    One of the best if not the best steakhouses I have ever been to. Excellent customer service, welcoming and relaxed atmosphere and exquisite chargrilled steaks. From the tender, melt-in-your-mouth, velvety fillet steak to the meaty, intense and full of flavour ribeye steak, their food is well worth trying. All these are accompanied by their home made sauces/dips that work perfectly with the meat and side dishes. And to top it off, their selection of Argentinian wines are complementing the food marvelously. This is the second time I've visited them and I will definitely be back for more.

    amazing service, amazing food. We went for the tasting menu with wine pairing and it was really interesting. Incredibly accommodating to gluten free costumers and offered equally yummy alternatives. Would wholeheartedly recommend. Will return.

    Great place and very tasty food. One of the best steaks in my life. Highly recommend! Desserts could be a bit bigger though 🙈

  • 5/5 Andrew C. 5 months ago on Google • 18 reviews
    Among the very best Argentinian food I’ve had the in the UK. Steak was fantastic, cooked to perfection, as were the chorizos. The empanadas we had as a starter were nicely baked and full of flavour. And the chocotorta is a must try - a very traditional Argentinian dessert Welcoming atmosphere, really friendly service from our waiter, as well as the owner of the restaurant. Would definitely recommend if you’re coming to Brighton in search of steak!

    Having lived in Brighton for over 9 years, I couldn’t recommend my dining experience at Baqueano high enough. The atmosphere, the food, the customer service and experience was impeccable. This family-owned restaurant is one to support, it felt like a warm embrace back to a familiar home. Siendo español me sentí completamente en casa. Bravo!

  • 4/5 Mrs O. 8 months ago on Google
    We had the tasting menu which was delicious but enormous!! Had to ask to take home desserts as literally couldn’t eat another thing after steaks arrived. The staff are amazing, so friendly and knowledgeable. Not cheap but good value given the amount of food which was served.

  • 5/5 Adam F. 10 months ago on Google
    Everything was fantastic, really good service - don't let the list price scare you off, worth every pence. We'll be back again the next time we're in Brighton without a doubt.

  • 5/5 Hannah C. 9 months ago on Google
    One of the best meals we've ever had. Managed to book a last minute table for 2 on Friday and everything was incredible! All the staff were so so kind and friendly. The food was next level - seriously amazing. I cannot recommend this place enough and big thank you to Cynthia and the gang for looking after us and giving us recommendations. We're sorry we didn't get more people's names! Thank you so much again for the hospitality. I plan on coming back if I'm ever in Brighton again!
