Gaucho Grill - Manchester Description
This restaurant is a carnivore's paradise as it offers classic Argentine cuisine of the highest standard in a stylish and contemporary setting. Featuring adaptations of bourgeois and rustic dishes with the international flavours that have tinged the history of the country, the Gaucho Grill menu represents the best of the country's varied culinary culture. Their outlets have proved popular over the last ten years with seven in London and one in Manchester.
Steak is king out there - all the meat comes from the lush expanse of the Pampas where animals roam freely in the grasslands. After being aged for six weeks, the result is incredibly tender beef, which has become renowned as the best in the world. Steaks are cut to order, rubbed with salt and chimichurri oil then flash grilled, turned only once - so it retains its flavour better.
The ceviche is a form of citrus marinated seafood salad - choices at Gaucho include a delectable mix of lobster and shrimp cured in a lime, coconut, citrus sauce and coriander, rightly called fire and ice. The Argentinean loganiza chicken sausages with crispy onion hay, pickled jalapeño and cherry mojo are delicious too.
Specialities include zarzuela de mariscos - halibut, monkfish, king scallops, shrimp, squid and green lip mussels in a saffron broth with asparagus, potato and toasted poilane bread, mushroom tian made of baked Portobello mushrooms with tomato vinaigrette, mozzarella and goat's cheese, as well as empanadas - savoury pastries typically served on the streets of Buenos Aires.
There are traditional Latin American pastries, cheese as well as flans with mixed berries, seasoned with tarragon, basil and lemon as well.
The menu is complemented by a wine list - the largest outside Argentina. The aim at Gaucho is to represent all of the major grape varieties in their country with Terruño, their very own label. Although Argentina is not well known for its sweet wines, the Torrontes Licoroso, from a monastery high in the mountains of Catamarca serves as a fine end to a meal.

I had heard great things about this restaurant and love a good steak so decided to visit prior to an evening at the theatre.
It was a spur of the moment decision so we had not booked but it was 6.10pm on a Tuesday evening so it was not a problem. Service started exceptionally well from an attentive friendly waiter who brought a display platter of the various steak choices & explained the different textures and how they were best cooked. Drinks arrived shortly after. We opted for soft drinks which surprisingly were not listed on the menu/wine list so we had to ask what was available. I had fancied wine but as the least expensive bottle of wine (Sauvignon Blanc) was £35, we decided against it. I have to confess I did not see the house white option listed on this website at all, so maybe I missed a page? The soft drinks ended up being reasonable priced at £1.50 but we did not know this until we received the bill at the end.
Although we were on a deadline I felt we would have enough time to try at least a starter too. These were disappointing however, very small portions & exceptionally overpriced - My friend had oysters which arrived beautifully presented on a glass platter but there were THREE! I had (tiny) chicken & bacon spicy parcels but they tasted neither of chicken or bacon and didn't have a particularly nice flavour. Both were around £9 each.
We were much more hopeful for the main course, however it always annoys me having to pay extra for vegetables &/or salad. My friend is on a low carb diet & could not have the standard potato accompaniment. We asked if that could be replaced with salad but the waiter returned after 5 minutes to say that that was not possible as there was no option on the till to replace it with. We therefore still had to pay the £4 extra to get a green salad side.
This is where the service started to seriously decline. We sat for 10 minutes after we had finished the starter before a waitress removed our plates. It was 7pm at thi

This place is fantastic. I’ve been a couple of times now, it really is the finest steak I’ve ever had!! The service has been fine and fast enough on both occasions. The wine is quite expensive but of good quality. The price of the food doesn’t have to be that expensive if you just want the main meal, so its definitely worth checking out. I know I’ll be back again soon.
