El Gaucho - South Kensington
30 Basement, Old Brompton Road, London, SW7 3DL
Argentina's renowned tradition of producing beef is both esteemed and envied by all and it was not so long ago that the term gaucho became a household name in London. Examining vast expanses of ranches in solitude, gauchos had no more than a small baggage and a knife; of course it's a different story here at Chelsea and South Kensington with the hum-bum of diners adding to the atmosphere and comradeship at El Gaucho. The succulent flavour of Argentine beef is too strong to ignore specialities like rump escalope with ham, melted cheese and tomato and char-grilled rump steak topped with cheese, oregano and black olives. A plate of grilled Argentine style criollo sausage makes a refreshing starter, followed by sirloin on fillet steak with two fried eggs, or char-grilled boneless chicken fillet.Argentina's renowned tradition of producing beef is both esteemed and envied by all and it was not so long ago that the term gaucho became a household name in London.

REVIEWS OF El Gaucho - South Kensington
J. Chun (2 April 2007)
This used to be one of my favourite London restaurants but not anymore. On my last visit, there was atrocious service from the head waitress down to the most junior member of staff. We even had the manager tapping on her watch asking us to leave as soon as we had finished eating and demanding payment. None of the staff spoke good enough English in order to understand our complaints and dissatisfaction with the service. The food is good but it's not worth the frustrating experience.
