I had 3 times dinner at Gaucho over the past 18 months.The first time was okay but nothing spectacular. The second time I brought a friend and steaklover from overseas and it was so good that he asked me to book there again when he visited HK last December. Sadly, the 3rd time was a big disappointment and except for the waitress everyone failed to deliver; The steaks were all over-cooked and my friends signature marinated tenderloin had the consistency of a shoe sole.

The second time I brought a friend and steaklover from overseas and it was so good that he asked me to book there again when he visited HK last December.
Sadly, the 3rd time was a big disappointment and except for the waitress everyone failed to deliver;
The steaks were all over-cooked and my friends signature marinated tenderloin had the consistency of a shoe sole. We needed to return that steak.
The sommelier recommended us an alternative wine (Tannat Grape, HKD 900) since the one we actually wanted (Cabernet) was out of stock. It was the first time we had a red wine made out of the Tannat grape which was over-loaded with tannins to a point, where its no longer an enjoyment. It seemed the sommelier wanted to get rid of his over-stocked bad selling wines.
My friend was too shy to complain and and ordered another bottle without having finished even half of the first bottle he ordered. The sommelier didn't care and charged us for both bottles.
I have booked a table again for next week and wonder what they will serve me again this time. After all, I love Argentinean beef, just wished for more consistency from chef and supplier in Hong Kong.
I will keep you updated and shall share my next experience with you shortly.
