Went really out of our way (West Island) to have dinner at Chez Gardel. Being originally from Argentina I was looking forward to the dishes and they didn't disappoint. The empanada was very good, nice dough without any aftertaste (like many others). The meats were incredible (had a rib eye and costillas). The dessert very delicate and truthful to the original tastes of back home. And what's more, a great atmosphere and impeccable service. We were greeted by Barbara and Gus (the owners) and were really impressed that we could have a nice dinner with conversation without having to shout at each other to hear ourselves (!!!!!). What a treat. Sigan adelante, y la mejor de las suertes.

My wife and I love going out to nice dinners and definitely enjoy an occasional good steak dinner. Chez Gardel blew us away with an exceptional evening of fabulous food, excellent service, lovely paired wines and even a visit from the wonderful owners. My wife enjoyed the best sirloin she ever tasted and I had the best ribeye ever. The empanadas to share were handmade and had the freshest ingredients, absolutely top notch. We are ones that love to go out to dinners, and have enjoyed some fine dining over the last 40+ years, and Chez Gardel ranks at the top of our list. What a gem!

It's a charming, family owned restaurant. Argentinian music softly plays in the background. The staff are nice and the service is attentive. The owners are engaging and super friendly. They want you to feel welcome and make sure you enjoyed the food, which is a refreshing change from the usual dining experience. The food is unbeatable with generous proportions. The best steaks we've had by far. We'll definitely be back.

Excellent all-around experience, I was surprised by the 4.9 score on Google and that's what made us try it out, but it turned out to be everything that was we were hoping for from the food to the service. I will be repeating without a doubt.

A cozy place with an excellent food and service. The quality of the Meats was outstanding and the crepes dessert with dulce de leche was top notch. Very reasonable prices for the quality of food. I’ll definitely be going back…

A must try! Barbara, the owner, took us through the entire Argentinian menu and provided a truly welcoming experience. The food was beyond delicious, and the Argentinian wine complemented it very well. Ribeye with the mille feuille side was out of this world. Go! You will not be disappointed.

I've been looking for a good Parrilla (BBQ) restaurant for while and I finally found it! This is what I like to call a hidden gem. I try the empanadas and the parrillada and everything was perfect. Well cooked and super flavorful. But the biggest star goes to the owners! Very kind and welcoming. 100% recommended!

We had a fantastic experience. From the moment we walked in, the place was warm and inviting. The food was exceptional. I highly recommend the strip loin it was bursting with flavour. The meat was cooked to perfection—tender on the inside What truly set the evening apart was the service Barbara and Gustavo were attentive and provided excellent recommendations that elevated our meal. It's rare to find such a perfect combination of high-quality food and genuinely hospitable service. We will definitely be back!

I’m sorry to say that I do not understand the positive reviews. The service was poor, the food was tasteless, and it was quite expensive for the quality. It was very disappointing, especially since we were looking forward to the experience everyone seems to be raving about. There are far better options in the area, and we do not plan on returning.

The best dining experience we’ve had in ages. Steak was cooked to perfection and do not miss the empanadas or the lava dessert. The ambiance was very nice and there was attention to the little details. Kind and efficient staff. We loved our visit and and can’t wait to come back! We so enjoyed speaking to the staff and ended up sitting long after our wine was finished talking and sharing our stories! Thank you so much for a night we will remember for a long time!

Today we had an incredible experience at Chez Gadel. As an Executive Chef, I can truly say I loved the place — the service, the food, and the atmosphere were all excellent. What impressed us the most was the warmth and hospitality. They made us feel like we were among family. Gustavo and Bárbara are exceptional hosts — attentive, welcoming, and genuinely kind. Without a doubt, this is a place we will return to and highly recommend. Thank you for such a wonderful evening. — Chef Ricardo Dotti
