Ask to be seated next to the chef’s pass. I reckon that’s the best seats (for me at least). Lovely waiter (Anne, I think), great recommendations, asked the chef what cut best to serve blue, great wine suggestions, great knowledge of food and beverages. Food was awesome, it felt different when the chef served the food to you, kind of like omakase style. Beef tar tar was amazing, full of flavour and generous portion. Prawns were amazing, did not need sauce, they were good on their own. Steaks were one of the best I’ve had compare to the prices! One last thing, the most amazing part was that one chef looked after the entire steak section and it was full house (and possibly double seating!) well done! If there was anything to improve at all, it would be wine serving by the glass. I wanted to try different wines to go with the meats, hard to do for a table for two. Although great wines, but more diverse, more price range (looking at crowds on Monday night, I don't think they’d mind paying more) and more options would be amazing!

Remembering that we all have our own experiences so don’t let this review put you off. The atmosphere is amazing. The service was ok. The majority of the food we had was great. We had several dishes, sweet bread yum, prawns yum, chicken yum etc. We selected two choices of steak as part of the course of main meals, I can not remember the two cuts but one was amazing and the other very tough. The disappointing part is that I was brought here for a surprise birthday dinner by a group of friends. We ordered our food which took the duration of just over an hour to come out. When we had finished our main meal we went to order deserts only to be told by the waiter that there was a group waiting for our table, that we could not order dessert and that we had to leave, upsetting, mood kill and disappointing! Perhaps a two hour time limit should not be imposed in a venue that predominantly serves grill and when the food takes time to come to the table. Luckily there are close by venues to drop into to finish off what was supposed to be a night of celebration. The venue has some great reviews but personally after this experience our whole group would hesitate in going back. Enjoy xxx

Try the broccoli entree, you’ll fall in love with broccoli 🥦 after trying their take on the veggie ! (Unfortunately no pics here) The service is superb, as always! The food is top quality and flavours are outstanding! No wonder we keep going back and bring our friends and family too!

To start off, we were seated right away, however it took 5 minutes for the waiter to bring us some water which was disappointing seeing that they were only had half capacity at the time. We went with the El Grande, $150 per person. The dishes were average and some exceptional until we received our premium waygu steak which was drastically over salted. That wasn’t the most disappointing aspect of the night as the service was horrid. Waiters and waitresses wouldn’t walk past our table or even glance at us to see if we required anything. We had a waitress come to our table once to pour the water from the jug on our table and ask how our dishes were and out of common courtesy we said it was fine. For a place with 4.7 star rating and paying $150 per person bill ($350) in total was a robbery. The only dish I could say that was amazing was the tartar. Also when we asked to takeaway some of the dishes as they were difficult to swallow the waitress advised that we would have to take-away the dishes ourselves ... Overall if you do decide to go to this establishment I recommend to not go with the set menu definitely get the Tartar and beware of the terrible service.

Third time here to proudly showcase the premium quality steak in Melbourne to a friend who came from Perth. We ordered 12 dishes to share amongst the 5 of us. Couldn’t fault any. Service was excellent. A truly enjoyable dining experience! San Telmo made the impression, again!!

Our steaks were cooked perfectly. It was deliciously seared with a flavorful crust on the outside while keeping the inside juicy and tender. This restaurant uses a special type of oven (parrilla grill) that uses charcoal or wood as the heat source. We booked our table in advance for lunch. However they were still some tables available at that time, so you may be able to just walk in. Multi-level secured parking is available nearby. We paid $24 for approx. 3 hours. There are no stairs at the entrance of the restaurant. Therefore, they should be suitable for wheelchairs or children strollers. If you're a steak aficionado seeking great steak, I highly recommend visiting this Argentinean steakhouse.

Hearty and memorable steak experience at this Argentinian steak house. Atmosphere wonderful, delicious food and attentive service. Everything here is just right for a special occasion with family and friends. A must visit if in Melbourne.

Lovely staff, great vibes and food didn’t take too long. The steak was lovely! And the tartare was amazing :)) we didn’t really enjoy lamb sweetbread but other than that it was great Good experience being able to look at the kitchen and how chefs operate. Lovely place, good vibes. Would be good for date night as well!!

One of the best dining experiences we’ve ever had in Melbourne. Every bite of food was spectacular. We ordered one each of the empanadas. The cheese empanada is hot with stringy cheese inside while the beef and olive is an amazing combination. If you are eating this with your hands, be careful since the contents are hot and also very juicy. We recommend eating these with the sauces they provide. The charred cabbage was also a highlight. It was very fragrant and overall a very well balanced dish. We also got the chicken which was incredibly juicy (even the breast part of the meat). While this one was not as flavourful as the other dishes, we recommend eating the chicken with the sauce and salsa they provide. The flan is very rich and creamy with the peanut praline providing a nice contrast in texture. We recommend sharing the flan dessert since it’s too rich for one person to finish. Their red sangria was also excellent. It didn’t taste watered down and the flavour of the spices really came through. The service was very attentive but a little slow towards the end as it did get quite busy with the 8:30 seating.

Celebrate friend birthday today, we sat outside cause is good weather, but is regretful due to lack of service, I think we must be nobody cause no one even want to refill my water, have to walk in and tell them, hey we still outside, could you send someone to clean our table and bring in the next course. Is upset. Food is good, but I would recommend to sit in restaurant. They have better attention to you.

Been here few times and still one of the best restaurant in Melbourne CBD. Everything was so good, as well as the drinks. We came here for a birthday dinner and had a lovely night. They were so busy, sometimes it was hard to get their attention to go to our table. Anyway other than that we were having a great night

Great food and service. Glad I finally made a booking to dine in. If you're going on a weekend, I definitely recommend a booking. All the dishes were delicious; however, I think the pork jowl was a real standout!

Friendly service and great food. The Provoleta is a must try. Tastes great with in house flat bread. Was planning to order the Scotch fillet but sadly ran out. Ordered the hanger steak instead. The texture is not as tender and with less fat, but more flavourful. Personally I'm still prefer the one with more fat. First time trying grilled carrots and goat curd. Not bad at all.

Dining experience here was exceptional. The staff here are super attentive and super friendly. The food in my honest opinion was a little above average, but who am I to complain - I still ate all of it. Would I go here again? Maybe not.. but if my friends wanted to go I wouldn't NOT go... The steaks are alright but I believe there are better steak joints out there that tops this for the same price.

I was expecting much more considering the rate of the restaurant. The fish was nice, likewise the environment. But the main dish that I went to try was the steaks that unfortunately was super chewy.

What a pleasant surprise this has been. We found this gem while we were wandering around, looking for a place to eat in our break from the Harry Potter play. The quality of the meals was outstanding, the service top notch and the whole experience totally authentic. My friend grew up in Argentina and kept having all those flashbacks as the food reminded her so much of home. The decor is beyond beautiful and the vibe laid back and yet chic and classy. I keep recommending this restaurant to friends, it's a gem!

First time try and love it. Everything was tasty and yummy. All staff were kind and friendly. We used all recommendations from staff about foods and dessert, and so happy with them. Definitely will try again. Thanks 🙏

Great service. Nice atmosphere. Not 100% sure the $90 set menu (+5% service charge) is worth it. Obviously some great food but not quite enough of it

First time try and love it. Everything was tasty and yummy. All staff were kind, helpful and friendly. We used all recommendations from staff about foods and dessert, and so happy with them. Definitely will return. Thanks 🙏

One of a few nice restauants open on Sunday in Melbourne. Very nice steak and matching wine. Tomato salad was great too. Tartar was ok. Easy parking just around the corner, $14 flat rate. Will come back.

Friend held her birthday dinner here with a group of 12 close friends, so we got the private room. In summary a fantastic venue with a lively and buzzing atmosphere on a Saturday, the steaks here are unbelievably juicy and mouth watering. When you get the private room, you also get a dedicated wait staff, and I want to fully commend the waitress that served us that night. She was a true MVP; always attentive, quick with our drinks and was always a willing hand to take photos for the group (don’t remember her name, had maybe a North American accent). I won’t go on about the food - it’s just freaking awesome. Perfect venue if you’re on a date, for a special occasion or just want to eat some damn good meat 🥩.

Tried this one a couple weeks ago. First ever Argentinian food and fell in love. Really like the food here and also the staff has given a great service. Ordered their rib eye steaks, potato and chicken. We fell in love with their sauces (green herb sauces + tomato kinda like salsa?) as well which is good to pair up with almost everything they got It is recommend to do a booking prior. Will definitely come back again

San Telmo is a fantastic restaurant for special occasions. By far I think it's the best steak I've had in Melbourne along with their delicious sides and accompaniments. On my reservation I advised I'm following a keto diet and the waitress was so sweet to look into what I was able to order. Will be sure to bring my family here, maybe when I earn a bit more money though!

Had dinner at san telmo, i had really high hope but i was a quite dissapointment to be honest. First lest's talk about the menu, i think the menu is too simple for a steak house, there are not much choice of steaks, i like rib eyes steak but the only ribeyes steak they have is around 600 grams which is way too big for a single person, and my wife don't like the rib eyes. The other steak wasn't my favourties cuts too. About the steaks: despite the waiting time which I get it it takes time, steak came as very cold, resting steak is important but not coming as cold dish and finishing 600grams steak takes time, the last pieces was way too cold, the steak taste was very avarage and it wans't as tender as I was expecting. The hanger steak, it was chewyyyy as, i get it the cut isn't as tender as other cuts, but the thoughnes level was quastionable. Entrees as side dishesh are alright and taste good but again wasn't something really speciall. The chimichurri sauce was my favourtie. Overall it wasn't the greatest experince and I had a lot more expectation. P.s: the bill we got had different prices than the menue from QR code. They have changed the prices respectfully but after showing evidences to them.

The steak here is one of the best! Had the rib eye and a couple of other cuts and have to say it's one of the best steaks I've ever tasted. Premium cuts cooked perfectly. Heaps of flavour and smokeyness along with being super tender and juicy. Chimichurri is also provided and this just elevates the steak ever further. The sides were yummy too, hard to fault anything here. Service is attentive and friendly. Highly recommended!

I had the pleasure of dining at San Telmo, an Argentinian steakhouse in Melbourne, and I must say it was an unforgettable experience. My brother and I had made a reservation a week in advance, and as we stepped into the restaurant, we were immediately struck by the warm and inviting ambiance created by the soft, low lighting. The menu at San Telmo is a celebration of chargrilled delights, and we decided to explore a variety of dishes. Our culinary journey began with the Empanada, a traditional Argentinian fried pastry that was generously filled with a flavorful combination of beef, olive, egg, corn, onion, and mozzarella. It set the tone for what was to come. The Broccoli dish was a delightful surprise - fried to perfection and topped with shaved pecorino, adding a cheesy and savory touch. The Chorizo, a spiced pork and paprika sausage, was bursting with smoky and spicy flavors, a true taste of Argentina. The Mejilla de Cerdo, pork jowl braised in apple and orange with crackling, was a wonderful blend of sweet and savory, and the crispy crackling added a fantastic texture contrast. The Zanahorias, chargrilled carrots with goat curd and hazelnut picada, were a revelation. The smokiness of the chargrilled carrots combined with the creamy goat curd and nuttiness of the hazelnuts was truly sublime. The Repollo, a charcoal-roasted cabbage salad with pickled pear and aged white balsamic vinaigrette, was a refreshing and tangy interlude. The Chauchas, chargrilled green beans with almond hummus, pickled pumpkin, and sesame cracker, added an exciting crunch and depth of flavors to our meal. Now, the main event - the steaks. We opted for the Entrana, O’Connor’s premium pasture-fed hanger steak (250gms) prepared medium, and the Bife de Lomo, O’Connor’s premium pasture-fed eye fillet (250gm) prepared medium rare. Both cuts were cooked to perfection, and the quality of the meat shone through. Each bite was a juicy, flavorful revelation, and the chargrilled finish added a wonderful smokiness. To complement our meal, we enjoyed a glass of Argentinian Merlot, which proved to be an excellent choice, perfectly enhancing the flavors of our dishes. Service at San Telmo was impeccable. The staff were knowledgeable, attentive, and passionate about the cuisine. They made us feel right at home, contributing to the overall enjoyable experience. San Telmo is a culinary gem in Melbourne, and I can't wait to return on my next visit. I'll also be wholeheartedly recommending this fantastic restaurant to my friends in Singapore. It's a must-visit for anyone looking to savor the authentic flavors of Argentina in a warm and welcoming setting.

What an amazing experience - some of the best steaks - they were all so juicy and tender packed with flavour! Cooked to perfection as well. The sausages were also surprising delicious.

Wonderful Argentinean steakhouse, great range of meats cooked on an open fire kitchen. All the sides are absolutely delicious and great matches for the food. Even the lettuce-based side salad was nicely dressed. Wonderful wine list and atmosphere. My only bad comment on the interior was the odd bar down the side where the bathrooms were, odd layout and quote dark whereas the other side was near the kitchen and I got quite warm after a long lunch!

Outstanding meat cooked to perfection! With their other side dishes prepared with savoury, and sweetness using fresh ingredients, and texture consideration to compliment every mouthful of the meat that you are going to put into your mouth. Couple it with a glass of Red wine to elevate the full favour of the red meat and have a deep conversation with the people that matters to you. Will return again for sure!

Awesome food and the service was overall excellent. Only one minor issue was that we weren't asked how we prefer our steak cooked, which potentially could have led to disappointment. It was a little more rare than I was expecting, although when I queried it, I was told it was MR, which is what we would have asked for anyway and in the end it was exceptionally good. Everything else with the service was impeccable. Will definitely be back for another visit. Thanks to all the staff.

Recommended by a friend to eat here but severely disappointed. Ordered 500 grams solomillo which the waiter suggested but it turned out to be a much smaller portion with the weight from the bone? Definitely not worth the price tag. It was also over salted and tough. We had better steak elsewhere at a lower price point and better service.

One of the best steak experiences hands down. If you are fussy about your meat, this place won’t disappoint. Cooked to your liking with that distinctive open fire crust. Well seasoned. Lovely wine options by the glass as well. I’d skip the chorizo next time, didn’t taste any different to a sausage from the local supermarket. Good service from the wait staff despite sitting outside - they had deep knowledge of the menu and wines on offer.

Great service attitude! I was served by a lady who is always humorous and small talks, and the carrot side dish she recommended is delicious. Nice steaks and dishes, although it was a little expensive. Would come back another time to dine again!

Literally, one of the best meals in my lifetime! Absolute perfection. If I knew when I was going to die, I would probably go here for my final meal. The food is art. Thank you for the amazing experience.

Second time at San Telmo. The food was amazing and there were plenty of gluten-free options. Unfortunately the service was lacking this time. In the booking I selected the occasion was for a birthday and wrote in the notes it was my partner's birthday and it was not acknowledged at all which was a bit of a let down when I saw other tables getting the birthday treatment on their desserts.

Everything was wonderful, especially the flan. The eye fillet was super tender and tasty. Absolutely will visit again!

Embarked on a culinary journey at an Argentine restaurant with captivating dark decor and ambient lighting. The waiter's attentiveness and impeccable service elevated the experience. The eye fillet stole the show with its perfection, though a flavorful sauce would have been the perfect accompaniment. Don't miss out on dessert; it's a delightful conclusion to a memorable dining adventure

Came here with friends and Brough us back to Argentina! Huge size meals enough to share around the table. You can taste the meat melting in your mouth!

One of our favourite restaurants in Melbourne!! The steak is fantastic and honestly the atmosphere is really what sets it apart. There is a fantastic wine list which also helps. Sure it is pretty pricey, but in my opinion so worth it! Staff have been so lovely, and even accommodating when we have had a show at the theatre. For sure we will be back!

So delicious! Loved having dinner here last night, my friend and I shared the lime snapper ceviche, the burnt carrots and the rump steak. Everything was well seasoned and cooked perfectly. Definitely will be back for more. It was quite busy for a Tuesday night, so highly recommend you book in advance.

Dined at San Telmo last night with 5 friends, fixed menu was amazing, one of the best wine lists anywhere in Melbourne and brilliant customer service. never disappoints.

Amazing food (best steak in Melbourne), great service in a cozy, atmospheric setting. Highly recommend.

If you want steak that melts in your mouth like butter, this is the place for you. The pisco sours are also great. Service is 10/10 as well.

I have been to San Telmo on three occasions. Each time the service and food has been marvellous. Be prepared to wait for a large strip-sirloin steak, but it’s well worth the wait. The experience is enhanced by the fact that the dishes are created to be shared. There will be plenty of speaking between each course, but complete silence when the mains arrive!!

An interesting place to try, cool decor and nice staff. All the food we ate was exceptional, on caution is that the dishes mentioned in the 'Smaller category are quite small (as opposed to some places where entries are a meal for lighter eaters). The meat was perfect and cooked to perfection. The meals took a while to come so don't think you can nip in quickly before a show! Not a cheap place but an interesting place to try.

We celebrated my wife’s birthday at San Telmo. The reservation asked me to pre order most of our food, (except drinks), and the full payment in advance, this was actually pretty handy in hindsight. Upon arrival we were greeted warmly by staff, the open kitchen and the Great Wall of wine makes a great first impression, our table was THOROUGHLY disinfected as per the current health measures in place. The food was excellent... We had the second banquet, ($90 pp), The black sausage was a stand out for me along with the fried broccoli. But they both came runners up to the dry aged ribeye we were served up for our main! Overall we had a great experience helped along by a bottle of Malbec which tied everything together nicely. I have to say that the staff went out of their way to ensure that our night was just fun and we left there feeling happy and full. An interesting dining experience I would recommend to anyone looking for something more than casual, but not fine dining, but still very high quality and comfortable surroundings.

Have emailed San Telmos email but no form of reply. I wasn't going to speak up but felt sick leaving restaurant yesterday and today my partner is really ill. Staff was lovely until we had to wait an hour and a half in the back of the restaurant with NO further contact from anybody for 1 piece of chicken and 1 piece of lamb! It would have been nice to have been told by the waiters that nothing else comes with the dish and to offer to order a side, or simply just explain the menu that has barely any items listed! Upon arrival of the food, I understand lamb to be cooked rare but the chicken was RAW, completely RAW. After waiting an hour and a half I definitely do not expect to be served raw chicken. . Definitely was not worth the money paid ($100 for chicken and lamb) and won't returning. Left disgusted, unsatisfied and HUNGRY.

????????

We love San Telmo, it has a vibrant atmosphere, friendly and knowledgable staff who are always smiling and helpful. The food is amazing, the ceviche and empanadas are fantastic but the steaks are the heroes and sooo delicious. I highly recommended this restaurant.

WHAT AN EXPERIENCE! If the take home box was this good, I can only imagine what the food and atmosphere would be like. We got the Para Dos box. This was a good introduction for the kids to a try a new flavour palette. The empanadas were a hit and the lamb was delicious! Really happy with the whole box. Thank you!

Great Desserts!!

Friendly & helpful staff. We chose the $70 p/h set menu option and were not dissapointed. The food was delicious & enough, no waste & left us feeling comfortable satisfied.

very good and taste steak

Just perfect ❤️??

Genuine Argentinean feel from when you walk in through the door, the decor takes you back to Buenos Aires through to your first bite of the juicy, simply cooked beef. Highly recommend the broccoli entree, provoleta, braised beef empanadas and tire de asado. You have to wash it down with a fernet and coke if you want to go full Argentinean.We have dined in at Asado, Palermo and San Telmo and each have lived up to our expectations.

Excellent knowledgeable waitress and incredible food. Great wine recommendations #MendozaMalbec2015

It was a lovely night. Dinner was a so beautiful. Food was delicious, and the waiters/ waitress was attentive. Had so much wagyu beef we couldn’t finish it all. Brilliant night. Will definitely come back again.

Love the atmosphere and the food. Only complaint was that they didn't let me sit where I wanted to despite a lot of available space. They said blamed corona restrictions for it, but it didn't make any sense to me to be honest.

Food is delicious, ambience really nice, we had the three-course set and it was all really good. Creme caramel dessert was really yummy! The Malbec was just delicious too - they have a great drinks list. We thoroughly enjoyed it!

Exceptional. High quality food in a high quality environment served by will trained staff.

Exellent service and very good food

Good comfortable feel. Service and food = Tick

Brillaint service from host & waiters. Lovely food! Best coffee martini ever

A beautiful experience with insightful servers and incredible food! Oooh the steak was out of this word! Will definitely be back

Amazing food every time. Great wine selection.

Amazing food and service!!!

It was the first night restaurants opened for diners since the isolation restrictions and San Telmo with its team of amazing staff did not disappoint! It was my birthday so double the reason to celebrate (thank you for the dessert & candles!). The food, wines and service was A1 while I highly recommend the Pisco Sour cocktail to kick things off. We will be back as such a terrific night had even with the new eating out rules, there was a good vibe in the room.

(Translated by Google) The steak is too dry and hard. It may be grilled on charcoal fire. The surface is dark and hard. The meat inside is ok, but the heart is very tired. (Original) 牛排偏乾硬，可能是用炭火烤的緣故，表層都黑到乾硬，裡面肉是還可以，只是嚼到心很累

We ordered a set menu. Each of the courses was absolutely delicious.

Had no idea what I was in for when some colleagues booked this place for dinner (they were obviously in the know). We turned up about 9pm on a Sunday and I thought it would be quite but it the joint was packed! The open kitchen mesmerises you straight away with the flame grill and hunks of meat being prepped by the staff. Once seated we were greeted by our lovely waitress who went through all the specials and the recommendations. For myself I got the beef empanadas for a starter and they were the best empandas I've had in Australia. They came piping hot, the pastry perfect and a fragrant beef filling.

The steak, wine and empanadas we ordered were made as great as I expected. I tried few Argentinian places before and I can say this place is one of the nicest one I gave been to.

Great steak. Excellent service.

Was there for a function and the wait staff were nice and friendly. No CUB beer, would be nice to have something from traditional Australia

Amazing food, amazing wine

A very nice place for an anniversary dinner.

Great atmosphere, brilliant staff. I highly recommend trying this place out. I've been at least 10 times

A very nice venue, fantastic staff and beautiful food.

You gotta love meat!!!!

This is quite simply one of the best restuarants in Melbourne. The steaks are always cooked to perfection, the sides are amazing and the wine list is extensive and spectacular. Desserts are also great.

So good it hurts.

Over all, great experience here. Loved the atmosphere, strong smell of leather as soon as we walked in. The seating, tables etc. all complement the vibe of the venue. The food itself was flavourful. Happy with the quality, flavours and portion sizes. The fried broccoli was surprisingly sooo good. Got the Don Julio margarita, was different and really flavourful.

Great gem of a place to try out some South American flavours and flare if you are in city. Thank you for the big welcome and attentive service. Four of us went crazy with lots of mezze platters to start with as we were hungry. Great wine selection for wine lovers and oh, cocktails were amazing too, Need to try the chocolate espresso martini, it was salty, sweet and perfect. Some good selection of beer from South America even on tap. Food was great, thank you. I was so excited to dig in, only regret is wish I took more pictures. Kitchen was so generous, they send us some Caramel biscuits for us to try too. Thank you for a great night. You will see us soon again.

Very nice setting. Felt like we were in a snow village resort. The service was top notch. Food was fantastic. On the pricey end of the scale but a very nice experience.

We were for my hubby’s birthday. The service was outstanding, excellent choice to celebrate it there. The manager helped us out to make us comfortable, I could put some birthday decor. The environment was amazing. The staff was very friendly and the service ran smoothly. I can even think in something bad. Anything went wrong. The food absolutely delicious. Solomillo, chicken and empanadas a must to try! However everything was very tasty. We highly recommend it !

San Telmo was just awesome, both the ambiance, food & wine. The meat was cooked to perfection & the accompanying food was mouthwatering!!! Highly recommend.. will go back .

The food and the service was very good 💯👌we're definitely comeback!

Fantastic foods! Came here for my birthday dinner and had a really great night here. The tomato salad and the carrot one (I cannot remember the name) are scrumptious! The steak was good but the sides were more exciting! Malbec wine was a good pair with steak as well.

We went back to Sam Telmo after lockdown, food is still as amazing as before, staff are just as friendly and happy to see customers coming back! Nothing beats a perfectly seasoned and cooked steak! 😋😋

Dined here on a Sunday night to celebrate my Partners birthday & had a wonderful experience. The atmosphere was lively, the front of house staff were so friendly & helpful with our selections on the menu & the food was delicious. The Flan we had for dessert was my favourite part of our dinner, it was perfect! I will definitely be coming back here in the future ☺️ Thank you San Telmo!

Just like San Telmo’s cousin restaurant, Palermo, this place can’t be faulted. From the staff, to the food, everything was so perfect and insanely delicious. My stand out dishes: the corn empanadas (a must try), the chicken and the save room for the flan (which if you don’t have any room, you can get to takeaway).

First time for me a couple of weeks ago. I had an amazing dinner with some colleagues. Thanks to the friendly staff we had a great introduction of “how the place works” and a bit of history of the restaurant. The two waitresses were great and they gave us all the answers we needed about the dishes. Basically every main could be shared by two people, unless you are like me, in that case you don’t share :) We had few starters and then we decided to share the “pollo” (if I remeber correctly the name) and a steak (can’t remember exactly which one) plus a couple of sides. Portions were huge and we couldn’t finish everything. The quality of all the dishes was great and so tasty. I would definitely recommend this restaurant even if it is a bit pricy, but trust me, you won’t be disappointed, it is worth it.

Amazing dining experience, one of my favourite restaurants in Melbourne! The steaks are cooked perfectly and with the chimichurri they are sublime 🤤 Delicious empanadas and alfajores too. Love the torrontes wine! The service is incredible too, they made me feel very welcome as a solo diner. Will 100% recommend to anyone and will come back next time I’m in Melbourne.

Loved it. Such a good eating experience. Waiters were so helpful and attentive. Delicious food. Got the banquet. Let them decide on what their best dishes are. Genius. We'll be back.

Great meal out. The Wagyu steak and small plates were delicious and well seasoned. That pork jowl was incredible and was suggested to us by our waitress. It just melts in your mouth. My husband, who doesn't like sweets, kept going back to the flan dessert as it was so well balanced and not sickeningly sweet. We really enjoyed our night out, and the waitress we had was friendly and helpful.

This place was so good I had to come back a second time. It is genuinely one of the best restaurants I’ve ever been too with the best steak I’ve ever had. Not too chewy or tough and so flavourful. The service is wonderful and the restaurant is nice and moody! A great place for date night or a night out on the town with some friends. I cannot fault this place. Highly highly recommend. Gets real busy so would be worth making a reservation.

We went to San Telmo for dinner last night. The food was simply delicious. We chose the banquet and loved every dish that was served. The waitress was very attentive and they looked after my dietary requirements. I would highly recommend to my friends and family.

Simply outstanding. Food is some of the best in Melbourne. The steak is out of this world and they have some interesting starters and sides. Can’t go past the flat bread, provolone dish and the roasted carrots. Service was immaculate throughout and you can see how much the staff care about your experience. Recommend asking to sit at the bar by the open kitchen so you can watch the meals being prepared. Can’t wait to go back.

My first ever Argentinian food, it was a great experience! The foods are very flavourful, and the service was really great too! I’d recommend the empanadas and of course the steak. And make sure you make a booking!

The food was lovely and we enjoyed it throughly. The steak was cooked to perfection and the chorizo was my favourite dish. The drinks menu was excellent but my whisky felt too watered down with sofa, maybe smaller whisky glasses or more ice would fix it. The place was very busy as you would expect but the staff were really nice. Food came in an orderly manner, not too slow and not too rushed either. It was only after 10pm we felt it was hard to get the attention of the staff members to request something as they were busy doing cleaning up leading to the closing time. Give it’s not a cheap eatery I did not appreciate being asked not once but twice to provide tips.

Amazing food and exceptional service. The meat selection was amazing. The rib eye was so soft and the condiments we had to keep refilling as it goes extremely well with the meats. The pickled eggplant was so tasty. Definitely one of my top favourite meat places in melbourne

We had a family dinner celebration here and I must say ‘wow’. The food and flavours was delicious, decor is beautiful and the customer service was outstanding. Excellent job team and we will be definitely be coming back for 2nd round!

This place is flawless, food is amazing, and service on point. The Tartare is a must order, we had 3 steak options, the hangar, the dry aged sirloin and the rump cap. All smokey, great bark, and delicious. Will definitely recommend to anyone who listens, we will be back.

The food was great, I've never had Argentinian steak before I found it has quite a strong barn yard kind of smell so it might turn people off if they're not used to it. I think the stars of the show were the starters, in particular the pork jowl dish that was absolutely stunning. The sauces and salsa Verde were great, the staff were very helpful and friendly.

Best Argentinian restaurant in Melbourne. Bar none. For starters, the tartare was outstanding - a hint of spiciness and dense with bite. Then I was fortunate enough to have the sweetbread and the lamb, served with sides of zanahorias (burnt carrots) and potatoes. The flan dolce de leche to finish was worth fighting over. Service was prompt and professional, completemented with an ambience that was buzzing with happy campers dining together. I've been here many times and shall come back for many more. Enough said.

After two visits where the food is consistently high quality, I can safely say that this is my favourite restaurant in Melbourne. The menu is hearty & healthy so leaving the restaurant is not a heavy and disgusting feeling of overeating, instead it's invigorating and exciting. The Ceviche in tiger's milk and green beans with almond hummus are my favourite sides, the grapefruit and mint mocktail was a perfect blend of zesty and sweet (I ended up getting a second one!)

Absolute favourite stake place in Melbourne. The Argentinian meat is another level in taste and quality and this restaurant has an amazing ambient making it the perfect choice for romantic dates or special event celebration. High quality in all aspects, and the prices reflects that. Definitely worth it.

Our waiter James was amazing! So attentive and knowledgeable. The restaurant and food was amazing. Not to mention we were able to have an affordable and delicious bottle of wine to accompany it.

best steak in my opinion! the steak was cooked perfectly, and the smoke really brings out the flavor 😍 the chili pesto was a perfect add to the steak! corn puff pastry was yummy and cheesy, highly recommend

A true Argentinian restaurant that makes you feel in Argentina entirely. Great food and hostess. As a starter, the ceviche is recommended and original with coconut hints. The tender meat and papas were exquisite and the flan was to die for.

Seriously meaty food. Brilliantly so. The feed-me $120 was an amazing feast of epic portions for seven people. Salad and dessert were delicious, steaks were 👌👌 Gluten free is easy. Nice vibe and good service. Enjoyed it

The staffs are super friendly and helpful. We had the special menu’s dry aged beef and the lady helped us to find the last serve. The steak was really good, appropriate cooked at the media rare level and the its texture was exactly what I expected. Highly recommended, probably my top five steakhouse in Melbourne CBD😋😋

Excellent service from the team. The food was tasty and generously portioned. Only item to fault was there was no waiting area/access to the bar while we waited for service to start."

Excellent meal and entertainment thrown in by sitting at chef’s counter. The steak was 👌🏻but so was the remolada special salad and the grilled carrots. Combined with a bottle of Argentinian organic red wine it was delicious.
