Gaucho Parilla has got it figured out. By minimalizing the responsibilities of the waiters, they are able to serve upscale meals at a low price. It is a BYOB restaurant without a corkage fee! Upon arrival, you stand in line to order your meal and then grab a seat (if you can find one). The place was packed the entire time we were there with a steady line out the door. You have to grab your own wine glasses, plates, silverware and any dipping sauces you choose. It was a little awkward at first when we asked for glasses and the waiter told us to help ourselves! It feels like you are at a friend's house for dinner! The dining area is a little on the loud side but it just added to the unique atmosphere. We ordered a few dishes to share as a group including flank steak, ribeye, empanadas, grilled veggies and salads. Everything was served family style and was delicious! I will definitely be making a trip back to Gaucho.
