Review content:
Let me start by saying that never have I ever been treated with such disregard at a restaurant in my life. And I?ve traveled to London, Paris, San Francisco, Los Angeles, Chicago, Austin, Atlanta, Jamaica, etc. and no one at a restaurant had ever disrespected me or my companions like Las Vacas Gordas did last Saturday night. First, it took them at least 20 minutes to put a simple piece of bread on our plate. Then we had to ask and keep waiting for water. When the bus-boy came with the water he laid the damn pitcher on the table instead of pouring it into our glasses. I should have seen the signs and left but my buddies visiting (from NYC and Toronto) wanted Argentinean steak, so we I stayed. When we finally put our order in we then waited nearly an hour-and-a-half for our food to arrive. Meanwhile, I saw one of the cooks eating as he prepared the food?since the kitchen is visible?disgusting! I then got up and asked for the manager, only to be led to the grand bitch of them all, GABRIELA. She didn?t apologize for the lack of good service or even acknowledge that there was a problem. She Fking ignored us the whole time. After our food finally came the bitch GABRIELA didn?t come back to the table and ask if everything was alright or if we needed anything else. She came outside, where we were seated, and didn?t even look our way. (Note to GABRIELA) If you DO NOT know how to service customers then why are you in the customer serving business? If this were NYC, or any where else for that matter, she?d have no damn job. I will NEVER go to Las Vacas Gordas again. And I am embarrassed that I brought my friends to a place where they were exposed to such negative behavior. You know the place is bad when a bus-boy says, ?next time you should go to The Knife in Bayside.? I mean, when your own staff is suggesting to your customers that you should go to another Argentinean steakhouse then you know there?s a real problem. Trust me, I know a lot of people since working in the entertainment industry and I will never recommend this restaurant to anyone. As a matter of fact I will say, ?stay far away!? One of the (Colombian) boys working there apologized profusely, saying, ?Sorry it?s their culture.? Meaning, all Argentineans treat guests like crap. Oh, really? Well, guess what Las Vacas Gordas? FK YOU!
Pros: The food
Cons: Manager is a Fool... disregard for people.
