    The staff was wonderful, very welcoming and friendly. The food was as expected, terrific! I love the place. Wish I could afford to go there more often! And very Argentine of them, they welcome you to sit at your table leisurely. Nice all around. One thing I am VERY offended by is that after happily accepting the price of the restaurant, they attach a hefty 5% "SF Mandate" ($9.05) charge, just for the privilege of have a $206 dinner. This offends me. I should ONLY be charged for something I bought, not just because I was spending a lot of money there in the first place! I was tempted to take ten dollars of my 20% tip to put the cost back on the restaurant, but I decided not to.

    Noise level can be very high if you are sitting at the upper level. The food was good and came out from the kitchen very quickly. Many of the appetizers were reasonably priced. The entrees were all priced much higher than I would’ve expected. Overall, it is a good place for an evening out. Drinks were well made.

    Great experience. Only negative was our initial seating. I had a party of 7 and we were seated at a table for 5. We asked for another table and was granted our request without issue. But surprised our initial seating was a table that could sit 5 comfortably (in my opinion). A chair was placed in a walking aisle at the booth we were going to seat at. Our second table was upstairs by the bathroom with more room. I do ask why a large party was expected to be seated at a booth for 5? There were several tables open to accommodate my party but i do realize i do not work there and there is a workflow I am not familiar with. Other than that, Lolinda exceeded my expectations. Thank you.

    Food was delicious and staff checked in often. At times I didn’t have a chance to respond to a question or for a recommendation, but staff followed up and delivered. In short, delicious, and good service but very fast paced.
