    Even though it's in a bustling shopping area, they've created a little oasis of tranquility, that takes you to laid back Spanish charm. The service and food are both excellent, meat really just melts in your mouth. It's a bit pricey, but occasionally well worth it.

    Very high quality meat. The restaurant has a good interior. Free parking. The price for quality meat is not high

    High quality meat! Very tasty. Also gin tonic was nice. However for highly rated restaurant they should work on professionalism of their staff. We ordered a plate of 4 steaks and would actually appreciate to be told which steak is which. Also they could be a bit nicer and not try to make you feel like they are doing you a favour when they serve you.

    5 stars for food, service & atmosphere! It is a real experience having a dinner at this restaurant. The best steak house in Ljubljana definitely. The staff is extremely professional and the dishes are true culinary creations. Do keep in mind it can get expensive coming here but you really get your moneys worth! They have sommelier professionals too. It is a must if you are a steak lover/argentinian style food. I recommend one of the best beef carpaccio, stuffed avocado, any steak dishes, chocolate souffle, baked potatoes and more.

    A Taste of Argentina's Culinary Excellence in Ljubljana's Shopping District Nestled in the heart of Ljubljana's vibrant shopping district, I had the pleasure of discovering a true culinary gem that transported me to the flavors of Argentina. This restaurant, which specializes in Argentina beef, not only delivered on its promise but also surprised me with exceptional wines and mouthwatering pizza. From the moment I stepped into the restaurant, the ambiance set the stage for an extraordinary dining experience. The warm and inviting décor, combined with the aroma of sizzling meats, instantly piqued my appetite. As a lover of steak, I was eager to indulge in the renowned Argentina beef that the restaurant is famous for. The beef dishes that graced my table were nothing short of spectacular. Cooked to perfection, each bite was a symphony of tenderness and flavor, a testament to the quality of the ingredients and the mastery of the chefs. The rich, robust flavors of Argentina beef shone through, leaving an unforgettable impression on my taste buds. While the restaurant's specialty was undoubtedly the beef, the surprises didn't end there. The exceptional selection of wines further elevated the dining experience. The staff's knowledge and passion for wine pairings were evident as they guided me through the options, ensuring that each sip perfectly complemented the dishes. A delightful surprise awaited me in the form of the restaurant's pizza offerings. The pizza, often overshadowed in a beef-focused establishment, was a revelation. The thin, crispy crust provided the perfect canvas for a medley of fresh toppings, resulting in a pizza that rivaled the best pizzerias in town. The attentive service was the icing on the cake, with the staff striking the right balance between professionalism and friendliness. Their dedication to providing a memorable experience was evident in every interaction, enhancing the overall enjoyment of the meal. In conclusion, the Argentina restaurant in Ljubljana's shopping district is a culinary treasure trove that seamlessly blends the flavors of Argentina with a local touch. From the exceptional beef dishes that are a carnivore's dream to the surprising excellence of the pizza and the impressive wine selection, this restaurant delivers a feast for the senses. Whether you're a meat enthusiast or simply seeking a dining experience that stands out, this establishment is a must-visit.

    Meat is soft and juicy. The flavours never disappoint.

    Eaten here several times. Last night was truly awful for the price of €85. Served a raw lamb steak and my wife a lump of beef. We asked for roasted vegetables (chicory) which were barely warm and almost raw. Chicory does not roast well and was stringy. My wife's garlic bread was a piece of slided loaf and cold with something smeared on it. Indescribably bad food.

    Worst meet I ever had. It smelled terrible and tasted even more terrible. For sure the meet was not fresh. It was long time in the fridge and defrosted to be cooked and served. Worst value for money. Stay away from this restaurant.

    Good service and very cozy and nice interior. Food was good but portions could be a bit bigger.

  • 5/5 Veljko P. 1 year ago on Google
    The best steaks in Ljubljana. A must if you love good food, a bit pricey tough, but totally worth it.

  • 4/5 Linda S. 1 year ago on Google
    The meat in the burger and sweet potato were delicious, but the burger was just too small for the price. The service was excellent and professional, also the ambience inside and outside is very pleasant and nicely decorated. I recommend!

    Good service, great food. Had venison with struklji (homemade rolls with skuta - cottage cheese strain). Coffe up to standards, great ambiance next to a biggest shopping center BTC. easy parking.

  • 2/5 Olga S. 1 year ago on Google
    Overpriced. For a restaurant that calls themselves a steakhouse, the steak was pretty bad. We ordered our steak to be rare, but what we have received was something between medium and well done. Also, the strak was pretty thin, so maybe that's why it was overcooked. We also ordered a dish that included chicken wings and another piece pf steak. The chicken wings were dry as hell, and the steak that came with them was stiff. Other than that I was okay, the wine was tasty and also can't complain about dessert. Would probably never visit again, because overpriced. I wouldn't want to waste that much money on a mediocre meal.

    As always, they make perfect steaks. If you really want to go out and eat something special, this place will not let you down. Very professional staff.

    High quality steak restaurant in the outskirts of Ljubljana (price goes with the quality), walking distance from Radison Blu. The waiter was very kind and professional. I recommend the carpaccio starter then gaucho steak (medium). It was tender, juicy and rich in flavor. The building inside provide a special atmosphere. In winter try to get a table next to the fire place. Summer time the terrace is fantastic.

    We were in Argentino extremely disappointed a few days ago. Occupied were only two tables. We have been seated by personal near the fireplace... And waiting to be served...and waiting... Three employee walking around for 25 minutes... Nobody ask us even for drink....I think this was the last time I have visited and recommend this restaurant to somebody, I have been in this restaurant a few times a year, with frienda and businesses partners... Now I will go definitely somewhere else.

  • 5/5 Christopher S. 2 years ago on Google
    I wish I would have gotten the name of the waiter that we had on 16 of April 2022 around 2015. He was amazing. He payed such great attention to detail and provided us with honest and true options from the food to the drinks. He had a great approach to taking care of his customers. Everyone's food was amazing. Top notch chef and staff. We will definitely make this a spot to enjoy.

    One of the best steak places I have been to, ever. Food was delicious, prices are a bit on the high end but it is worth every penny. Service is also on the high level. There is free parking in front. Menu is not too big which is usually the sign of a good restaurant. Definitively highly recommended!
