This has got to be my favorite restaurant in Seattle. Well, that changes week to week so let's just say that El Gaucho has the best steak in the city. What's not to like? The meat is grade AAA and aged perfectly. They actually make medium-rare medium-rare. You even get a show when you order certain dishes as the servers prepare it in front of you.
Decor is steak-house perfect with low lighting (which helps hide the amount of saturated fat you are about to put into your body) and live piano music. The service is top notch. The only bother is that the waiters want you to order "enough." One of the few formal, dress up restaurants in the area. I highly recommend the flaming swords or the porterhouse and the Caesar. Make sure you order plenty of sides (my favorite is the linguine) but save room for the free fruits and cheese. On 1st near Wall. Here are the scores; I follow the Zagat format.
