Reviews for El Gaucho Tacoma in Tacoma, WA
My wife and I celebrated our anniversary here last night, and they did an outstanding job! Our table was right by the piano,... which we thought was going to be a little loud at first, but it was perfect! Travis was our server, and he was fantastic! Hissuggestions were spot on, and he definitely helped make the experience fun. The two winners of the night were the rack of lamb,and that amazing Key lime pie!! Both were suggested by Travis. I honestly didn't know what to expect, mainly because my wife andI don't really eat out at these types of establishments on the regular. But I must say that I happily stand by my full 5? reviewand would give them higher if I could! Read more
The entire setting is too dark so I wasn't able to take great photos. Perfect ambiance for an intimate romantic date. Food is... exquisite. Serving size were in between regular and morsel. Service charge is automatically charge 18% of the whole bill. Weordered 3 appetizer, 1 beer and 1 cocktail drink and spent $120. There was live music, it was cool. I will definitely come backto try their steak and seafood next time. The only thing that made me uncomfortable being a first timer here is the waitertaking away my food while I'm still eating. Also I noticed that if you don't dress nicely, they seat you upstairs. Majority ofpeople wearing fancy clothes are seated in the open area downstairs. Read more
Zed and Ryan made my wife’s birthday experience top notch. Between the levity and witty banter between the two made the... experience even more enjoyable. Can’t forget the pianist Kacey Evans for his auditory ambiance he provided while we werethere. He’s a keeper. Keep up the good work team!!!! Read more
Let me start off by saying that I've been to a lot of restaurants. The food, and the treatment by the staff that I received, was... far above and beyond my expectations. I've never been treated so special and felt so comfortable at any other restaurant I'veever been to. The food was amazing, and my steak was cooked perfectly to my liking. I was beyond impressed by the wholeexperience and I'll definitely be going back again once my wallet recovers from this visit. Read more
My second time eating here and it did not disappoint. Everything about the experience is amazing from being warmly welcomed, the... physical ambiance, the talented piano player and vocalist, and of course the amazing food. The table side preparation of severaldishes is amazing. The employees are the most professional, friendliest people. Read more
Fine dining restaurant. Live piano music. We attended a business dinner and were seated in a reserved room. The food was... delicious and quite expensive. The service was outstanding. Complimentary valet parking. Read more
A lovely place to treat yourself to delicious steak and seafood. So many fantastic entrees available with shareable sides -... their delicious, crunchy, flavorful Brussels sprout is always a must (although I forgot to snap a picture of them!). Good wineselection and great cocktails, the tiramisu dessert cocktail being my favorite. Bananas foster is a also must for dessert! Cozy and elegant with dim lighting, El Gaucho is great for romantic nights out as well as a relaxing and/ or celebratory eveningwith close friends. Read more
Went in for a birthday dinner, group of 6. Reservations made for 8pm. They had a birthday card and rose petals on the table. The... place is very dim and they have little flashlights on the table to see the menus. The servers were very attentive, professionaland friendly. Our guy was awesome but I forgot his name. Started with drinks, a friend had a fancy Gaucho French 75. They had asmoke bubble gun done at the table for the drink. We had appetizers, salads, bread, main course, palate cleanser plate ofgrapes, goat cheese, fig, and jam, and dessert. I chose the rib eye with truffle butter. It was delicious and cooked perfect.Also chose the lobster mashed potatoes. The server laid our napkins on our lap and was always polite. If you park valet, you geta little bag that has chocolate chip cookies and those were yummy. Fantastic dinner from beginning to end! Read more
