"My European colleagues and I were in Uster for work when I spotted an Argentinian steakhouse. As a Brazilian who loves Argentinian culture and gaucho barbecue (Argentina, Uruguay and south of Brazil), I convinced them to try it. I had enjoyed my honeymoon in Buenos Aires and knew the food would be great. On our first visit, the kitchen was closed, so we returned the next day, at 7PM, only to be disappointed. The waiter informed us there were no seats inside but suggested the garden. When we said we wanted to eat, he warned it would rain soon (it didn’t). I insisted we didn’t mind and ordered Quilmes beers. Strangely, the waiter brought the payment machine immediately, which was unusual in my years in Europe. When I asked again about dining, the waiter claimed it wasn’t possible due to the impending rain and lack of indoor seats. His excuses felt insincere and reminded me of dubious ones I’d heard before. It seemed they either distrusted us, thinking we might try to scam and run without paying or didn’t want to serve us, despite other tables being attended to. This was humiliating and frustrating, as we had the means to pay. I was extremely disappointed, unable to enjoy a good chorizo, some papa fritas, and maybe an alfajor. I refrain from giving a one-star review out of respect for the potential quality of the food and my admiration for Argentine culture, but I can’t hide my frustration. This is sad, as I remember a colleague from the Swiss company mentioning how good the restaurant is."

"(Traducido por Google) Realmente no me gusta dar una calificación tan mala, ¡pero fue realmente un desastre! La carne estaba cruda, no me la pidieron, ya que me gustaría la carne a pesar de la barriga hochschwangeren o ni siquiera me informaron que la carne se sirve mediana. Después de media hora, algunos de los invitados, la hamburguesa recibió el resto tuvo que esperar. Cuando vi que mi carne estaba cruda, tuve que devolverla porque puede ser muy peligrosa durante el embarazo. La señora me dijo después, tomaría 4 minutos al final, esperé 25 minutos y tuve que comer sola, como si eso no fuera suficiente, ¡la hamburguesa volvió a la mitad! ¡Es increíble, nunca he recibido un servicio tan malo en mi vida! ¡Tampoco entiendo lo que lleva tanto tiempo freír una hamburguesa simple! Me hubiera gustado ir a la cocina y freír mi propia hamburguesa, eso hubiera sido más rápido y mejor. Increíble .... (Original) Ich gebe wirklich nicht gerne so eine schlechte Bewertung ab aber das war wirklich die reinste Katastrophe! Das Fleisch war roh, wurde auch nicht gefragt, wie ich das Fleisch gerne möchte trotz hochschwangeren Bauch bzw. wurde nicht mal informiert das, dass Fleisch medium serviert wird. Nach Halbestunde hat ein Teil der Gäste, den Burger erhalten der Rest musste warten. Als ich gesehen das mein Fleisch roh war, musste ich ihn zurückgeben, weil das sehr gefährlich werden kann bei einer Schwangerschaft. Die Dame sagte mir danach, es würde 4 min gehen am Ende habe ich 25 min gewartet und musste alleine essen, als hätte das nicht schon gereicht kam der Burger wieder halbdurch!! So etwas ist echt nicht zu glauben, ich habe noch nie in meinem Leben so einen schlechten Service erhalten! Ich verstehe auch nicht, was so lange dauert, um einen simplen Burger zu braten! Am liebsten wäre ich in die Küche und hätte meinen Burger selber gebraten, das wäre bestimmt schneller und besser gewesen. Unglaublich...."

"We went to Brunnentor on a double date last Saturday and had a great dinner. As a hotelier I respect restaurants that not only get it right, but do so consistently. It's easy for Michelin starred restaurants to do it with their ridiculously exorbitant prices and their large kitchen brigades, it's much tougher to achieve this level when in a local casual dining restaurant with limited resources. I have been going to this place for years and the food service is always great, always the same. As always, I ordered a large pork schnitzel with carrots and spinach only, no fries. The veggies here are absolutely awesome, perfectly seasoned, cooked to perfection. I love the combination of greasy deep fried schnitzel with umami spinach and tender carrot batonets. If you are into your fries then yes please order them. They are seasoned with a flavour enhancer and are pretty tasty. For starters we ordered 2 Nüsslisalats Mimosa (lambs lettuce salad, chopped boiled egg) and a steak tartare. The salad was fine, nothing special, the dressing tasted store bought and this could easily have been tossed up at home by a novice. I don't normally order Steak Tartare as I am simply not a lover of raw minced beef. Carpaccio I enjoy but not tartare. Nevertheless I did taste some from my friend and it was tasty, perfectly seasoned with a hint of spice. For mains everyone ordered a schnitzel and everyone enjoyed what they were served. Fried thinly battered and bread crumbed pork or veal. For desserts we ordered a Black Forest ice cream ball and a coupe, both good. This is our local and we will return. Thanks very much."
