Excelent argentinean style food. Love the different meats and combinations. The service is good, and there are some pastries that are very tempting. Two things that make a difference, the empanadas, and the sandwiches de Miga. Best in town.

Good Argentinian restaurant with the expected delicious empanadas and their specialty cuts that are very good.

I've been coming to this place for almost 10 years, and sad to say it's gone downhill in terms of quality and service. My most recent visit featured a chicken soup and parrillada Buenos Aires. The chicken soup is the reason why this is a 3-star review and not 2-star. Flavorful, hearty, and lots of chunky chicken and vegetables. As far as the parrillada, the meat (NY Strip, short ribs, skirt steak) was ordered medium well, and it came completely over cooked and dry. It also tasted very bland. Thankfully the chimichurri is still good and added flavor.Unfortunately the service wasn't any better. Upon walking in, on several occasions, the host stand tends to be empty, even though the restaurant is only about 30% full, and it's a few minutes wait until someone shows up to seat you, which was the case this time. The irony is that often times there several staff towards the back of the restaurant/bar area, congregating, mingling, eating, doing menial tasks, etc. while it is evident that customers are waiting to get seated, need service, etc. My waiter checked up on me just once during my meal. When I was finishing up my food, with some food still on the plate, another staff came by and said "I'll take your plates now", without asking if she could or if I was done. To top it off, I waited several minutes for my check in plain view of my server while I watched her eat her dinner and count tips.I've been a frequent customer because there are not many Argentinian options in the immediate area. Not sure if after today's visit I'll go back again.

Decent service, our waiter was pretty shy but he got the job done. Drinks were never empty for too long. Great decor, quick service. Visited on a Friday night and it was pretty empty. Not sure if this is typical or not. Food was very well priced and yummy. Clean bathrooms and all staff was masked. Also the pizzeta was only $6! We had to try.

Twice I was visiting family in North Bethesda and we went to El Patio.The Empanada's are soooooo good and we end up buying more then we can eat at one time and take them home. I wish OHIO has El Patio close but it's always a treat during my visits. I'll be dining there next week during my visit.

Best 3 leches! Really nice ambience, and the service was really good! I highly suggest ordering the beef empanadas, it's perfect!

It has authentic Argentinian food (eat in) and a select amount of teas and wines available for purchase. I've been just a few times to find it usually crowded at times. Service could be faster based on my few visits there.

Food is great and prices are reasonable. Service is slow. We got the Buenos Aires parrillada, it says it's for 2 but 3 of us ate and had leftovers. The flan is very small but very good. We are definitely coming back.
