  “Another excellent experience at Gaucho on my third visit! I visited on my birthday and was dining alone, but the team went above and beyond to make me feel welcome and valued. A special mention to Cam and the rest of the team for their outstanding hospitality. They kindly surprised me with a birthday dessert after finding out it was my special day, which was a genuinely thoughtful touch and made the experience even more memorable. As a chef, I have a real appreciation for quality food, and Gaucho consistently delivers. The food was fantastic, every bite was delicious, and the service was friendly, attentive and efficient from start to finish. It's the combination of excellent food and genuine hospitality that keeps me coming back. I'll certainly be visiting again and would highly recommend Gaucho to anyone looking for a great dining experience. Thank you for making my birthday so enjoyable!”

  “First, the male waiter was nice, but the food experience was something else. The restaurant itself looked nice, with all the lighting and interior design. We both ordered £30 set menus, which may not be expensive in this country, I guess, but you could get much better quality food elsewhere for less. The shrimp from the appetizer was terrible, tasting like a cheap cream salad. For the main course, I think the picture says it all. It was quite disrespectful; the female waitress served it without mentioning the other side dishes coming after (which were just French fries and a tiny cup of chimichurri). We were shocked, we both ordered medium-rare rump, not two logs of **** on a plate (sorry for the language, but look at the picture, and if you think that was good steak, idk which world you're living in). The desserts weren't good either. A part-timer from another fast-food restaurant can do the garnishes and create a better food presentation than what we had. I don't want to be mean, but we chose this restaurant for our first dinner in Cardiff, and this is what we got. Just think about it, do you really want these impressions for your restaurant?”

  “Went to try their Legacy III set menu and good selection choices The foods and services were amazing. Greeted by Hannah the hostess with a welcoming smile and she was very attentive ( great hospitality). I chosen the Prawn Chicharrón Sweet and spicy sauce, pickled red onion and jalapeño King Prawns & Lobster Cream Linguine Pavlova Marinated blackberries and blueberries with mascarpone cream Another great culinary experience Definitely will be back to try the rest of the menu. The only downside is the spotlight lighting ( felt like I am under the spotlight) which i did asked to change my sitting area and the restaurant will definitely benefit with a softer lighting or background lighting. When you sitting at the seat with spotlight you will find out what I mean especially when taking pictures of the foods”

  “This was my first time at Gaucho, and it was incredible, me and my boyfriend were there celebrating his birthday, he had the ribeye and I had the rump steak and they were cooked to perfection. For dessert I ordered the brownie and my boyfriend had ice cream, and when he popped to the bathroom, our server Cammie said she had a little something for him, for his birthday, and when he came back she brought out another chocolate brownie with Happy Birthday written on the plate, which was completely on the house, I was so happy, and super grateful, and my boyfriend was very surprised and super happy, I had no idea she was going to do that. I have to big up Cammie she was so smiley and welcoming, really lovely waitress, very prompt and friendly. 100% recommend, will definitely come back in the future. Thank you so much for a delicious meal, hands down the best steak I've ever had.”

  “I came to Gaucho with a group to celebrate an anniversary and it was amazing! We ordered the empanadas for starters and preferred the chorizo, but both fillings were quite good. I ordered the ribeye and the quality of meat was outstanding. It was perfectly cooked medium rare as ordered, and the chimichurri sauce complimented the meat very well. The mash was also excellent. If you’re looking for a busy yet non-intimidating vibe with excellent food and friendly staff, I’d highly recommend Gaucho. Recommend making a booking.”

  “We came to Gaucho Cardiff to celebrate my daughter's birthday, and we couldn't have been happier with the food and service 10/10. From the moment we arrived to the time that we left all of the staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming. 3 steaks all cooked to perfection, 1 medium rare, 1 rare and 1 blue. Also the pan fried seabream was delicious. Just the right amount of time given between courses, with the waiters being very attentive, but never intrusive. Thanks for a lovely evening.”

  “The waiter's attitude is still very good, but the food is really terrible. I don't know why a medium-rare steak can make me well-done and burnt well-doneI don't quite understand. He helped me make a new one, and then the new one came up like this. I don't know if the chef is not good at cooking steak or what. The atmosphere in the store is still very good, but this food alone makes me hard to swallow.The steak is so hard that I can't bite it.”

  “I was a disappointed in my visit here for Sunday lunch. Thought the price for the meal was a little pricey for what it was. It was nice but had better. My main concern was as the amount of dust around the place, we sat upstairs, dust was visible on shelves, ledges, on glasses and even on the salt and pepper shakers, definitely needs a clean. (Zoom in on glasses photo you can see the dust)”

  “Such a pretty restaurant with great interior. It’s a pity it didn’t live up to expectations. We dined in on valentines evening. For an 8pm booking we were made seated only at 8:25. We were then told we could only have the table for only an hour when I had booked months in advance and payed a £40 deposit. Felt like they cared more about how much money they could turn over rather than customer experience. The food was very average. The sea bass was hardly seasoned and very plain. Burger was okay but very dry and plain, expected more for the price tags (maybe a home made sauce or caramelised onions). The empanada starters were very well made and we both enjoyed those the most. I’m hoping this was only because it was valentines evening and both kitchen and floor felt very rushed.”
