Why Travelers Love El Boliche
Sourced from recent guest feedback and verified reviews.
This parrilla was recommended to us by a tour agency as the best grill in town and it sure didn’t disappoint! It’s is not a fancy steakhouse nor is it a touristy place. It is a local parrilla with a history, delicious meat, and excellent service. We ordered a full order of ribs with a complete salad and we were stuffed. The portions are generous and the chimichurri sauce that comes with the basket of break is super delicious. We want to go back and try other meats here. The service staff are extremely helpful and friendly! A truly exceptional place. The steak and the salad was perfect, the wine delicious, bread and oil superb. Our only gripe was the size of the bowl of fries we ordered. Very good but was far too much! The service was friendly and prices reasonable. Highly recommend it. Their meat especially the Rib-Eye is excellent quality and tenderness in medium. Their sales are fresh and tasty and portions are huge. Opt for the 1/2 portions in meat or sharing. Side dishes are also very huge and are best shared. We had to wait 15-20 minutes with was very quickly.

We have been here 26 years ago and came again today. The food is fantastic, traditional and high quality. The service was wonderful and professional. We will come back again!

Excellent parilla and service. Argentine beef is the best. Dinner starts at 8pm, that’s kind of late to digest a big steak, so I came here twice for lunch instead, easier to get a seat too.
