This was our first visit to this restaurant, very elegant setting. Loved the woodwork in the ceiling. All the waiters are attentive and friendly.Food arrive very fast, I had a salad with artichoke hearts, sundried tomatoes and hearts of palm. It was good period. Also had a grilled chicken breast that was huge but with not very tasty. My husband had a ribeye and he said that it was good but not great. Honestly I expected more of such a nice place. Prices are on the expensive side

Really liked this place. Staff were nice and fun. Steaks tasted excellent (although they also seemed like they were salted a lot....but not overly salty tasting). Maybe it was their marinade. In any event, it tasted great. Their elote (corn & cheese) empanadas were to die for. Killer. Salad came automatically. It was weak. Stuffed peppers were really good. To figure things out....the Bife de chorizo is their name for ribeye.

I moved to Guadalajara just a month ago, and Iâve been to the place today for the third time, basically because steaks are great, no doubt about it... but... it was a shame that the waiterâs captain decided to sit a friend of him just ahead of three families (including mine) that were waiting for a table. Thatâs how a teamâs good work can be sent to the trash for just one person... management should look into it.Hi Franco, we are investigating the situation, We sorry about what happened and for the late response.Greetings

I've just spent a whole week at GDL and someone recommended me "La Vaca Argentina". I went there with my family, on a Thursday, to have lunch.1.- The place is nice, is inside "Andares", a popular mall.2.- The empanadas are good, the steak is really tasty.3.- Wine selection is fair.4.- Desserts and coffee are pretty good.5.- Service is terrible: we had the waiter coming every 5 minutes to know if there was something missing (and disturbing at every time the conversation), but everytime that we've asked for sthg....it just took ages to arrive to our table!!!6.- When I asked for my steak, I also asked for French fries (that arrived late) and the guy serving the salad just served it over the table and took it from the table back to my plate.... Sooooooo disgusting. Of course I told the guy and asked for a new dish and a new salad.In conclusion, the place and the food are good but the service is really bad. I would strongly recommend against going here to have lunch.

Went here with my wife for my birthday and could not have wished for a better experience. It should be noted upfront that we met in Guadalajara more than 30 years ago when I lived and worked there for more than two years. We used to live in an area called Jardines del Bosque, on walking distance from La Estancia. So, I have been to La Estancia many times but had not been there for more than 15 years since we don't visit Guadalajara that often. We were very excited to be back. It had been renovated and enlarged with a separate room for smokers (which, incidentally, has better aircon than the rest of the place). It is a large restaurant with ample distance between tables for privacy. It is a favorite hangout for business people - think a typical 2-hour Mexican lunch that is used to build relationships rather than discuss business. Anyway, we started with a selection of empanadas (they offer 4-5 different types) complemented by their home-made salsas. Pick any - the fillings are juicy and delicious. I then continued with the 500 gram (1.2 pounds) "Churrasco," a perfectly grilled piece of meat simply served with lettuce and marinated onion. Simple and delicious (but I could not finish it). My wife had a more traditional Mexican "Sabana de Filete."The service is attentive and impeccable. The place is perfect for business meetings but also nice for family occasions.They open at 1 pm each day (tells you something about lunch time in Mexico). If you have no reservation, plan on arriving before 2 pm, after that it gets really crowded. At 3 pm, it is full, every day. We got there at 1:45 pm and lunched for 3 (!) hours.We finished off with a "postre" (dessert) on the house since it was my birthday, espresso, Don Pedro (Mexican brandy) for me, and Chinchon (anise liquor) for my wife. Well, we didn't want to leave so we had two digestive top-of-the-shelf tequilas too (añejo, i.e. tequila matured the longest).All told, this restaurant is better than ever, and when you combine the quality and taste of the food, the service, ambiance, and modest prices, you will have one of the best experiences you can ever wish for. This is a must-eat place when in Guadalajara!

We went there with an American couple living in Mexico but with a very international touch, we knew the Picanha cut from our trips to South America, after a Menu review we selected the Kobe style for our cuts but ... they do not have it ¡ it was in the menu, the waiter very friendly did not speak English ¡ Try the Cochinita Empanadas, very good, our cut was returned to the kitchen because was not the way we like it. Also try the Alfajores desert, they are good specially the one with hazelnut. We were there for lunch the place was 50% but the service very slow.We should try to come back and get the Kobe style cuts. Let´s see.
