5 months agoStopped into this El Gaucho spot due to the fantastic dinner I had at their Pattaya location. Unfortunately this dinner didn't live up to the hype or the price. Martini was excellent, even at 490 baht I would order it again. Bread portion of 3 pieces was small for the price, but nice to have the options of roasted garlic and blue cheese butter as spreads. Ordered the 13 oz. ribeye, medium, and Chicago style (blackened). I do this as 9 out of 10 steak restaurants always undercook their steaks. Sure enough, my steak came rare to medium rare, and not Chicago style at all. While I could have sent ot back, my friend's dinner had also arrived, and at these prices I expect the steak to be prepared properly. If the kitchen staff are not trained properly, use a thermometer, it's that easy. Service was mixed. The Bussers were excellent, always quick to bring water, bread, clear dishes. Our main Server was just okay, functional but not alert. We spent over 10 minutes with the dessert menu on our table while he was leaning on furniture. After several looks and a wave, he finally came to take our order. This is simply not acceptable when you're charging the prices El Gaucho does. I'll still try this restaurant chain one more time based on my Pattaya experience, but not at the Sukhumvit 19 location.

3 months agoI’ve tried El Gaucho many times at their Soi 11 branch, but this time I decided to give their Terminal 21 location a try. Oh boy — it was hands down the best steak I’ve had in my life. I ordered the mixed platter, and except for the lamb, the other three beef steaks were absolutely exceptional. It’s a bit on the pricey side, but trust me — you won’t regret it. Definitely recommended.

5 months agoI visited El Gaucho on Sukhumvit Soi 19 dying for a greek salad and didn’t know where else to go. I ordered a greek salad and a cheeseburger. Hot bread with herbed butter, an olive tapenade and baked garlic as an appetizer. Short after my salad arrived and the waiter split the feta and mixed the salad table side. Then came the burger served with fries. For dessert I ordered ice cream and the waiter gave me three kinds to choose from. The burger was not bad but I can’t really say that it was good either. I think dull is the best word to describe it. The ice cream was also flat so I can’t remember what taste I chose. On the other hand the baked garlic and the bread at the beginning was really good and so was the salad. Two maybe three stars for the burger and the ice cream. The salad was on point so thats a five. The sweet staff and the atmosphere makes up for the dry tasteless burger and the boring ice cream.

a month agoMost of people came for hang out or meeting, celebrating something. Since I was just there for a meal and good steak, it didn’t feel relaxing for me. The steak quality was good as always. The food took quite a while to arrive, but staff that take care of us was good and overall still okay. All time favorite 👑👑 Steak (USDA Prime) 👑👑 Perfect cooked, perfect temperature

4 months agoThis is an excellent steak place. Raw oysters are very good and Greek salad is also excellent. Services are top notch and my wife and I had a great time.
