Unfortunately I did not purchase your garlic sauce. Is there any way I can

Absolutley the best meal I have ever had in my life. We would return
to Aruba just to eat at El Goucho again. The Argentine Grill consisting of five
types of meats was unbelievable ! FIrst the Red Sox win the World Series and now
we’ve experienced eating at El Goucho. When are you opening a restaurant in
Boston?

We were at your restaurant last Friday for the third time in 5 years
and it was wonderful as usual. We asked if we could buy a set of your salt
and pepper shakers and some sauce and were told you were all out but that if we
went to your web site we could order on-line. I do not see a page for
that. Please let me know where I can find this

I was recently in Aruba on my honeymoon and someone suggested that we
try El Gaucho. I was, by far, the best meal I had the entire
trip…possibly ever. I just thought everything from the atmosphere to the
food was fantastic. I hope I have another opportunity to visit again.

We came apon El Gaucho 15 years ago by mistake. It was our first year
in beautiful Aruba and didn’t know our way around very well. We couldn’t find
the restaurant we were looking for so we went into El Gaucho. The absulute best
mistake we ever made. The Best steak in the world along with the best service.
Thank you for givig us something to look forward to when we come back to Aruba.

Amazing steaks cooked to perfection!!! We fell in love with the steak
sauces and brought some back to the states. I am a little disappointed because
we just ran out of our sauces and there I see no where to order more!!! Thats
too bad! The sauces make excellent gifts. Let me know if there is a place to
order more?!!! Thanks.

A trip to Aruba is not complete with a visit to your resturant. Would
like to start our vacation off with EL GAUCHO’S but since your not open on
Sundays must wait till Monday. It will be a long day but well worth the wait.
Then we have to end out stay with a visit the following Tues. Maybe
another time inbetween. You have the best steaks I’ve ever tasted. Keep it that
way. That green garlic sauce isn’t that bad also. Don’t ever stop making it. See
you in 5 weeks

Hi to all at El Gaucho’s, I have just been reading some of the e-mails
that people have sent with such warm wishes and entheusiasm for the wonderful
food your fabulous restaurant provides. I felt very envious of of the
visitors who have just left Aruba!.. I was there with my friend Geraldine in Nov
2002! and I miss Aruba very much. Can’t wait to come back. We will
most definately be dining at your restuarant, a visit to Aruba is NEVER
complete, without an El Gaucho STEAK!!!! Happy holidays everone!.. and
happy eating! I trully hope to return soon. Keep working, Keep
Happy,… AND KEEP SMILING! xxx England.

by a number of people. We ate there our first night in town (May 7) and

are looking forward to dinner there on our next visit to Aruba.

My Wife and I were on Aruba for 2 nights prior to a even day cruise!
While at our hotel, we asked for recommendations for a restaurant, our bartender
told us something that got our attention,”I would put my hand in the fire
to eat at L Gaucho. Ok, we thought that was a little extreme. We were at a bar,
the name escapes me, when we askes the same question, to our surprise, we got
the same answer! I will give you one guess where we ate the next night!
were we dissapointed, NO! I never had a steak so perfectly prepared and
the portion was unbelievable! We are heading back down in April and I will be
eating there again,again and again! Oh, the house red wine is fabulous, and
you’ll be surprised as to the maker! Makes for great Sangria!
