I will admit that this review may be slightly biased based on the fact that I studied abroad in Buenos Aires in college, and this is the FIRST legitimate Argentine parilla I've been to in NY.

As so many others have said, if you weren't heading to this place based on the good reviews, you probably would NEVER end up here. It's a small, dimly lit little restaurant on the street-side of the kinda dirty Clinton St. stop. But thank goodness…More »
