I had had a great experience at El Gaucho in Seattle on a business trip 6 years so was very excited to be able to take my family to El Gaucho in Tacoma for my daughter's graduation from college and El Gaucho in Tacoma did not disappoint. Food was outstanding, the spectacle of the serving of their signature flaming beef...

My fiance and I ate here several weeks ago, and although we both live in the area, eat out quite frequently, and had been intending to go to El Gaucho for some time, it was our first visit. But let me just say: it shan't be our last!
We arrived early for our reservations, so we sat at the bar...

Went to El Gaucho to celebrate our 10th Anniversary. The meal was amazing from start to finish. Our server AnnMarie was awesome: attentive, entertaining and professional. We started with Oyster on the half shell. They were the freshest my husband had ever had, I haven't seen him that happy in a long time. So happy infact, he ordered more! The...

Great place for a romantic dinner - wonderful ambience - fantastic steaks, superior service, a small, but discriminating wine list - a truly excellent dining experience! If you are looking for a special place to take a special someone, this restaurant is a great place to consider. It isn't cheap, but the experience was certainly worth the money!

I've been to the Tacoma El Gaucho twice and I will probably be back a few more times. It's my favorite steak house so far (I've been to a few uber nice places elsewhere in the country). And I'm glad to hear they hired the nice Nordstrom piano player. My only advice to folks is that if you find a...

Our family tries to do a once a year dinner splurge for a special event at an upscale restaurant. For the last two years we had our event with our grand daughter for her birthday at Seattle's Ruth's Chris. Both times the meal was uneven. One plate perfect, the other needing to be sent back to the kitchen for a...

We came here with friends to celebrate a birthday. It was our first time at any of the El Gaucho restaurants, and I had very high expectations. It was everything I expected (and more). The service was great, the atmosphere was open and inviting, yet intimate. We shared steak tartare as an appetizer, and we each ordered steaks for dinner....
