"If I could give this place more than 5 stars, I would. This place is 10 out of 10. Simple home cooked food, which has more taste than some top-class restaurants. The staff can not do enough to help you make your choice, exampling all the dishes in a friendly manner. From appetiser to main the flavours flood out of the food. This place is a hidden gem, if your staying overnight near the airport and want to relax and enjoy some great food, check this place out."

"This cute little restaurant has sooo much flavor in the food and staff. It met higher then my expectations. I am so happy I came here to taste their homemade delicious foods. The empanadas, chicken fettuccine alfredo, and beef ravioli with bouillon sauce. I couldnt ask for more here at Los Gauchitos"

"All I can say is WOW… just .8 miles from the Miami airport Marriott … walk your fatties down it is sooo good and best service I have had in a long time… we choose sandwich…. But the grilled meats they do table side looks to die for! And pastry’s ! We will be back!"

"The food is excellent and this place is a true hidden gem. While the main server’s attitude could be improved, Carmen, who took our drink order, was outstanding — warm, attentive, and genuinely kind. Her service truly elevated our experience."

"This Uruguayan Argentinian restaurant offered an unforgettable dining experience that truly showcased the richness and heart of South American cuisine. From the very first bite to the final dessert every dish felt carefully prepared flavorful and deeply satisfying. To start I tried a variety of empanadas including chorizo sausage cheese and onion spinach and chicken. While each one had its own distinct flavor the chicken empanada stood out the most and was by far my favorite. It was perfectly seasoned tender and incredibly juicy with a balance of spices that made it both comforting and exciting. The dough was crisp on the outside yet soft on the inside but it was the chicken filling that truly made it unforgettable. For the main course I ordered the mini picadita mixta which featured an assortment of meats including picaña, chicken, and sausage served alongside yuca frita. The meats were cooked to perfection extremely juicy rich and packed with flavor. Each bite felt indulgent especially the picaña which was tender and deeply savory. The chicken remained moist and flavorful and the sausage added a bold smoky taste. The yuca frita was crispy on the outside and soft on the inside making it the perfect complement to the meats. I also tried their signature burger the hamburguesa los gauchos. This burger included cheese ham bacon onions tomatoes lettuce and eggs creating an incredibly satisfying combination. It was juicy rich and full of flavor with each ingredient adding its own texture and taste. The egg and bacon especially elevated the burger making it feel hearty and indulgent. For dessert I had a pistachio cheesecake that was smooth creamy and not overly sweet allowing the pistachio flavor to stand out. I also tried a dessert similar to a croissant filled with cream and it was amazing. The pastry was light and flaky while the cream filling was rich and balanced making it the perfect ending to the meal. The service truly elevated the entire experience. My server Kahyra was very very attentive sweet and genuinely caring. She consistently checked in at the right moments made sure everything was perfect and went above and beyond to make us feel welcomed and comfortable. Her kindness and warmth stood out and she provided a level of service that not many people give anymore. Because of her the atmosphere felt relaxed personal and comforting and it made the meal even more enjoyable. Overall this Uruguayan Argentinian restaurant delivered an outstanding experience through its flavorful dishes high quality ingredients and well prepared meals. From the chicken empanada to the rich meats satisfying burger and excellent desserts every dish reflected authenticity and care and made the experience memorable."

"A hidden gem worth the detour We stumbled upon Los Gauchitos Restaurant by chance and were genuinely delighted that we did. The food is delicious and clearly inspired by Uruguayan and Argentinian cuisine, with comforting, well-executed flavors that feel both authentic and generous. Prices are fair and reasonable, especially for the quality and portions, which makes this an easy place to recommend. While the ambience could be elevated a bit, it doesn’t take away from the experience once the food arrives. What really sets this place apart is the added charm of the small market inside—you can pick up mate, wine, teas, dulce de leche, and other products from Uruguay and Argentina. On top of that, they have a fantastic bakery, which alone is worth the stop. Highly recommend making the detour to try it out. We’ll absolutely be coming back."

"Carmen was an absolute the very best waitress. I will be coming back. Food is absolutely scrumptious. I had the special and every single bite I had was phenomenal. I also had the dessert from Uruguay."

"Highly recommend! Best Uruguayan and Argentinian food in Miami. Everything is authentic, flavorful, and perfectly prepared. Carmen is the best waitress so attentive, friendly, and truly makes you feel welcome. And the sweets from the bakery deserve a special mention they are absolutely incredible. Perfectly balanced, fresh, and full of rich, homemade flavor. You can really taste the tradition and quality in every bite. The desserts alone are worth the visit!"
