Reviews for Malbec Argentine Steakhouse in Philadelphia, PA
Dined here for the first time during the Sept 2022 Restaurant Week and glad we chose this place. We arrived a little early for... our reservation so had to wait a little bit for them to get us a table since we wanted to sit inside (it was surprisingly chillythat night). We didn't have to wait too long for them to take us to our table. The place isn't huge, but very cozy with anintimate vibe perfect for a date night. Again, our waiter came over pretty quickly to provide us with the menus and get ourdrink orders. The drinks were made very well - good balance of enough alcohol without it feeling over powering. For the food -we loved & enjoyed each course. With it being restaurant week, we had three courses. Appetizers, he got the Chorizo & I orderedthe Empanadas; entrees were Steak & Salmon; then we got the Tres Leches and Flan for dessert. Each menu item was served hot,good portion size and tasted really good. Really wonderful spot with great menu options. Highly recommend dining there and wewould go back for sure. Read more
Good happy hour for wine and sangria. Smaller indoor area and outside seating. They even have the road closed off for it which... is kind of neat. The salads on the menu are single portion. But the ensalada de Higos was quite tasty. The dried figs almostseem like they are prepared in house rather than purchased prepackaged. The steaks were not super thick, but they wereincredibly tasty and that chimichurri sauce was killer! I didn’t have to send it back for being over cooked which is a bigdeal for me. I would definitely order the ribeye here again. Ravioli has fresh made pasta, it was so good that no one thatordered it was willing to share :( Or I was too busy enjoying my steak and I didn’t ask quick enough. Each dessert came witha healthy dollop of caramel sauce which kinda blew our minds. The filling in the crepes was pretty amazing. Chocolate mixedwith the caramel sauce. Very tasty. The tres leches was definitely not a sharing size portion, but still very tasty. And wehad some ice cream to top it off. The quality of the food here is excellent. It’s not cheap, but the price is worth theexperience even if work is not paying. I would come back with the team or clients. Only catch is it does look a little smallinside so it might get crowded during peak times. Still might be worth it. Read more

I had a wonderful time at Malbec Argentine Steakhouse. We sat outside on a lovely evening during Center City Restaurant Week... 2022. From beginning to the very end, the experience was exquisite and absolutely pleasant. Our servers (one was being trained)were a delight. They were attentive and knowledgeable of the menu. The food was DELICIOUS! The empanadas were soft and veryflavorful, the skirt steak was juicy and cooked to my taste and the flan was creamy. The chimichurri is EVERYTHING! Idefinitely recommend for anyone looking for a good steak or anyone wishing to try new flavors. Read more
Very authentic restaurant, the vibe is great. For me it was like been somewhere in Europe (Spain or Italy). The food is amazing,... delicious. It’s located in old town, so interface and design is old and awesome. Highly recommend this place ???? Read more
Outstanding service, food, decor, drinks... everything. Highly recommend. Tucked away where its close to columbus blvd and south... street but away from business. The chimichurri is always good and the apps were phenomenal. Would def make this a regular spot.Prices are worth it but expect to good amount. Read more
Romantic ambiance restaurant. Good for a date. But also great if you're craving a steak. Ordered the 10oz skirt steak, and it... was really good. Beef empanadas were good. The salad was a bit dry. Overall good restaurant. Read more
Great food, above average atmosphere. We ordered empanadas, calamari and skirt steaks. The steaks were really juicy. Empanadas... were good too. Poor service however. Not only the service was slow and we had to struggle getting the server's attentionmultiple times BUT they included a 20% gratuity for a party of 2 who only ordered 4 items total. We paid without arguing but I'mnot sure most customers would take a 20% gratuity automatically included for a poor service. Read more
