Really? I found their food to be extremely salty and their Caesars are terrible

Didn't try their Caesars, but the food was really nicely seasoned for me, really flavorful overall. The place is very small and a bit hot though, but it was all worth it! I don't really like super salty food either, hmm, go figure!

maybe they were having an off night when I went there, dunno, don't see myself going back there any time soon

I like Bolero better.

Gaucho is overpriced for what it is.

Hm... Getting mixed reviews.

How does it compare to Bolero? Bolero's only major flaw was service because even though we had the shaker thingy on green, we barely got any meat during our time there.

Made my parents frustrated.

I see. Anybody else agree?

well with 58% off it becomes a great deal... but it is not that bad price wise since every time i eat there i and too full to eat my next meal... so its like two meals at once for me

[Neil4Speed]

yes, I will concede that Bolaros is better, but in my eyes, Gaucho was like a 8/10, whereas Bolaros about a 8.5-9. At 58% off, this is a pretty hot deal.

Flipstah, I never had a problem with waiting too long for beef, they were skewers going around ever 5-10 minutes or so.

at times it comes around so fast that i could not even finish what i already had... plate got a little full

wow, what a deal. especially if you're into dining fads that were passe 10 years ago, but are just now becoming the rage in calgary.


they've also got some good sliders at Lounge Burger.

EDIT: actually, you can now even get 2 sliders for $3.49 at A&W. hold the salt, please.

you obviously haven't traveled in the US in the last 15 years. or read an airplane magazine, for that matter.

I Don't see why people say Gaucho's is overpriced compared to bolero's, Gaucho's is cheaper per person, you dont have a salad bar option, but you do get unlimited sides, and when I go for Churrasco I go for meat and lots of it, I dont like salad, beans and potatoes taking up usable space.

As for being salty traditional Churrasco is traditionally cooked meat over an open flame using only salt as a seasoning which may explain why you think its salty. Also the service at gaucho's knows how to cut the meat properly, it is supposed to be in thin slices, not the chunks some 16yr old was giving me at bolero's

There were 3 things that bolero's had over gauchos, the atmosphere (it was a little more trendy) better stocked bar (as long as there is some type of mexican/south american beer I am fine) and the fact they have a salad bar (a detractor imo for reasons above)

If you want traditional properly prepared and served Churrasco go to Gaucho's,, if you want a "trendy night out" go to bolero's. Gaucho's is a place I will go for a meat fest with the guys who appreciate it, bolero's is somewhere I would bring a date.

non-linear only eats food that comes out of the queens ass, everything else is out of style.
