Baqueano in Brighton and Hove

One of the best steaks I've ever had. Service was friendly and welcoming. Would highly recommended to anyone visiting Brighton.

Best steak in Brighton by far . Top quality Argentinian meat with the best service possible from Carlos . Would highly recommend this place for a dinner ! Definitely we will come back . Thank you for everything .

Best restaurant in Brighton. Owners are fantastic and create a great experience to match the great food.

Excellent independently run Argentinian Steak restaurant. First class steak- never had such fabulous tasting meat! Thankyou for a lively experience. Kerry and Paul

Small but very cozy Argentinian restaurant run by its owners Exquisite entrails

Great place with delicious steaks and friendly, super welcoming staff. The quality of the meat is fantastic and the preparation equally so. Baqueano should be the go to in a city where so many other places serve thin, overcooked slabs of sadness.

This place is an absolute gem. Quite possibly the best steak we have ever eaten the service was fantastic with a warm authentic atmosphere. Perfect for gluten free dining with about 80% GF menu. Would highly recommend.

Otra excelente comida del mejor restaurante de carne en Brighton & Hove. Empecé con las empanadas que son imprescindibles, seguidas por el ojo de costilla para principal, increíble. No pierdas el tiempo yendo a otro lugar, esta es nuestra tercera vez aquí ahora y es inigualable. Sin duda volveremos de nuevo. Especial agradecimiento a nuestro camarero Carlos por el maravilloso servicio.

Estábamos impresionados por este restaurante. El frente sencillo da paso a una experiencia gastronómica acogedora, personal y agradable. A la llegada nos hicieron sentir muy bienvenidos, y nos ofrecieron nuestra elección de mesas. Tomamos el pequeño de enfrente para poder ver pasar el mundo. Una de las dos encantadoras señoras que nos estaban cuidando vino y trajo las bebidas, menús a la carta y degustación, antes de traer una jarra de agua sin preguntar. Nos dio mucho tiempo para elegir lo que nos gustaría, comprobando cada pocos minutos para ver si estábamos listos para pedir y comprobar si había bebidas pedidos. Cualquier pregunta en los menús fue rápida y exhaustivamente respondida. Con el paso del tiempo, el restaurante se llenó pero no se sintió lleno y el amable personal logró mantener todas y cada una de las mesas individuales servidas sin problema. Después de pedir, la señora nos dijo que no necesitaríamos aceitunas adicionales, ya que el plato que pedimos ya venía con ellos. Este pequeño gesto de servicio al cliente (en lugar de solo sacar aceitunas extra por el costo adicional) realmente nos impresionó, mostró un nivel de atención al cliente que no se repite a menudo en otros restaurantes que hemos visitado. Pedimos dos filetes (largo de ribeye y solomillo grande) que se cocinaron a la perfección. El mío estaba fácilmente en mi top 5 de todos los tiempos, tal era el tamaño y la preparación. Vinieron con tres salsas de acompañamiento que fueron explicadas individualmente por el personal y aportaron algo añadido al filete. Un montón de patatas fritas también y también teníamos el champiñón y el ajo que era impecable. Demasiado lleno para acompañar el postre, pero a pesar de que no pedimos ninguno, cuando llegó la factura nos presentaron dos pequeños dulces de pastelería que estaban deliciosos. Otro pequeño punto positivo era la sala de descanso que es excepcionalmente limpio, ordenado y muy bien diseñado. En general puedo ver por qué este es calificado como el restaurante número uno en Brighton. La atención al detalle, el personal y la comida están muy por encima de muchos otros restaurantes. Sin duda recomendaría y volveré en el futuro. ¡Muchas gracias!

No hay nada que culpar sobre este pequeño restaurante familiar. Somos grandes comedores de carne y este es posiblemente el mejor filete que hemos probado. Las salsas son increíbles, la comida se presenta maravillosamente, y el personal (propietario) es tan amable. Condujimos 2 horas y lo haríamos de nuevo para venir aquí!

This is a true authentic gem in Brighton. The steaks were unbelievably good, the service was perfect and they went the extra mile with the children in our group. Would highly recommend !

Wow! Truly great food and atmosphere. We had lost hope for eating out, but this experience has lived up to expectations. We came with our kids. We had prawns and the sweetbreads to start, amazing! Then the fillet and rib-eye along with chicken- all of the best quality. One of the best things was the enthusiastic service and welcome, just so nice to see a smile and some passion. Try it you won’t be sorry.

Great place for top quality steak! Friendly staff and great atmosphere. Steaks and wine are amazing!! Highly recommend!

An excellent restaurant for great steak and good Argentinian wine!

Compared to the steaks I've had so far, the taste is one level higher. The steak, chips, and sauce are all delicious, and the service is very satisfying.

The food was amazing ! The waiters were really kind and they ordered us a taxi It was quite cozy in there

This place is fantastic. We have eaten here a few times now and it is consistently excellent. The food is delicious and the service is great. They are super. friendly and helpful. This time we took the waiters recommendation for wine and it was lovey, just what we wanted and not expensive.

We have been wanting to visit this restuarant for a while now but it has always been booked up, we managed to visit on Saturday and was completely blown away with the quality of the food and service. the steaks were of excellent quality and cooked to perfection, it is now 'The' best steak restaurant we have ever visited to date. The owner also mentioned another business they own in Duke Street, Brighton called 'Malo', we were so impressed with our meal we decided to visit on Sunday and again extremely tasty empanadas (pastries). Thank you for your service and we will be back soon.

Best steak I have ever had! Service and food were both fantastic!

What a great little steak house! Excellent food, charming service, reasonable pricing. Excelente!

Visited Baqueano, a quaint family run restaurant, for a birthday meal and was blown away by the best steak I've had in years. Adriana made us feel very welcome and attended to. We chose the Bife de lomo and Ojo de bife as mains and were not disappointed. Absolutely delicious.

Excellent place, run by its own owners, they are very friendly and helpful, the food is extraordinary, the meat is of very good quality, I recommend it if you want to eat delicious meat.

We visited for our anniversary and were made to feel welcome right from the start. Birthdays and special occasions aside, we're not regular diners but I think it's the best service we've ever received. There is a variety of food choices but the ribeye steak, in particular, was absolutely phenomenal. Great atmosphere and great, friendly people. Very pleased and will definitely be returning! Thank you for a memorable visit

Excellent food, excellent steaks and an amazing atmosphere. They were very welcoming and attentive to allergy requirements!

What, a wonderful experience. The food is authentically Argentinian, and you can tell there’s a lot of dedication and hard work. We loved the empanadas, and the meat was exquisite. The service was top-notch, Adriana was very kind and friendly. We’ll be back very soon!

Family-run restaurant. Simple but nice decor. Got good meat with suitable red wine. We should have ordered more accessories to get an optimal dining experience.

Incredible food, great service and owner has incredible energy. Chips were amazing, steak even better.

The food was amazing and the staff really sweet, kind and informative. They helped make a very special birthday for my boyfriend. While providing a excellent steaks.

The best steakhouse in the town, service the best , they gave us a free dessert as well , lovely 🥰

We visited here for our anniversary and the setting was lovely, as was the hospitality. Well worth a visit. The food was also 1st class

The best place for a steak in Brighton. Always perfectly seasoned and expertly cooked. The Argentinian condiments/salsas make the steak even more delicious. The environment is comfortable and welcoming. The team are friendly and professional. Their enthusiasm for serving really good food shines through. Good value, especially considering the high quality of the meat.

Amazing amazing. The food is so delicious and the staff members are so welcoming. My favourite restaurant for the past two years and they never disappoint. Best food in Brighton

It's our second time at the fabulous restaurant and it certainly didn't disappoint! The food was sublime, the staff were friendly and professional and the atmosphere was relaxed and welcoming.

This place it’s so good we went here and decided to go for the tasting menu, it was definitely a journey a beautiful journey with dishes from Argentina; It was hour first time in a Argentinian restaurant and it was just perfect, there’s a starter, a pre main, the main course it’s steak heaven and when you think it’s done they still bring a plate with Argentinian traditional deserts that blow your mind! What an experience. Go there and be in heaven. Great service also thru all the meal big shout to all the Baqueano team! Thanks a million.

Amazing food and amazing service. I'm from Argentina and it really felt like being back home for a moment. When waiters/ waitresses bring the food to you, they explain in detail what they are serving and that makes the experience really unique. The quality of the meat is incredible and please please try the empanadas. They are probably one of the best I've ever tried in my life (and being from Argentina you can imagine I've tried thousands of empanadas before 🤣) Thank you so much to Adriana and Carlos for being so friendly and warm to every person at the restaurant, that really represent well how people are back in Argentina too ❤️

Took my partner for a Birthday meal, was blown away by the amazing food and service, would definitely go again.

Great products, friendly service. They made me feel at home. Absolutely worth trying

Excellent steakhouse. Tasting menu plus wine pairing was good value and delicious. Ideal for two hungry people. Would definitely come back.

Baqueano is the best restaurant I've been to in Brighton and probably in the UK. The steak served is exceptional and we've tried the whole menu. Adriana and her team are extremely friendly and kind, they also certainly know what they're talking about when it comes to the food. If you are looking for an elegant, romantic, not overpriced and exceptionally good restaurant then this is the one!

Amazing food, cooked to perfection in a timely manner!

Very nice restaurant with great food, nice; friendly staff and amazing service would definitely recommend for a nice meal out at a great restaurant

Fantastic steak. Homemade good fries.

This is a great restaurant. Small but a really good atmosphere there. Friendly, professional and welcoming staff. The food is slightly more than the average steak house would charge but definitely worth the extra price. Booking beforehand advisable as very popular. I would definitely go there again.

We had the steak tasting menu with the regular wine option and it was the kind of lunch that puts you out of commission for a day or so. Great food, well cooked, and the accompanying wines were superb. Enough calories to stun a donkey, but worth it.

We booked for my husband’s 60th birthday party and everyone had a brilliant time. We were a party of 26 and everything was perfect. The food was amazing as usual, and the staff were excellent. Adriana was great at helping with the planning and everything went like clockwork. I can’t recommend this lovely restaurant highly enough.

Great food, friendly helpful, if occasionally a little disorganised service. A wonderful place for a meal with friends or family

I would give more than 5 stars if I could! I'm not a beef person and already have dinner, but the reviews say this place has the best steak in Brighton, so I want to try it. I'm glad I did! The ribeye steak was outstanding. It's tender, juicy, and melts in your mouth. I also love the dessert too. I can't remember the name, but you can see from my image. Besides, all staff are friendly and helpful. Highly recommended.

If you're in Brighton and looking for an unforgettable dining experience, this Argentine restaurant is an absolute must-visit. The service is impeccable, with every detail attended to with care and professionalism. The food is simply exquisite—authentic Argentine flavors crafted with the finest ingredients. Each dish is a masterpiece, bursting with taste and cooked to perfection. A special mention goes to Carlos, who made the experience even more memorable with his exceptional service. His warm hospitality and detailed explanations of each dish added a personal touch that truly set this place apart. I can’t recommend this restaurant enough; it’s 100% worth a visit and definitely a place you’ll want to return to again and again.

Amazing little Argentinian steakhouse. The steak was absolutely divine, so tender and flavourful. The empanadas were also amazing, and had a wonderful bottle of wine that was also a highlight. Adrianna was so lovely and kind. Would absolutely recommend to everyone!

Went here for my birthday. Great place and atmosphere, family owned and all the staff were very friendly and accommodating, particularly as we had booked the next day by accident. Steaks were cooked to perfection, portions plenty and the tomato and onion salad a great acompliment to share. Postre Baqueano (spong pudding) to finish was amazing. We had excellent cocktails, olives, starters, bottle of wine, main meals and side dishes. Thank you for a wonderful time.

In love with this place! You can definitely find the Argentinian essence. The Owner was the best, he gave me recommendations that definitely satisfied my taste. Best food we had while being here. Oh I recommend sharing the desserts!

Fabulous steak and empanadas! I ordered takeaway, which they typically don't do, but they graciously allowed since I showed up before the dinner crowd. My server was very friendly and attentive. I asked for his recommendation of how to cook the steak, and he wrote "chef's choice" and the steak came out absolutely perfect. One of the best steaks I've had in a long time. They give generous portions of meat and potatoes. That, along with the house-made empanada to start (also delicious! I wish I got more for later), filled me up. It's not a cheap place, but you certainly get what you pay for in flavor, quantity, and quality of service.

Nice restaurant with good food and very service minded staff. I would have liked to try the dinner menu here if I had the opportunity, but this time I only stopped by for a small snack. The venue was a bit dark but other than that I have only good things to say about this place. Recommended!

Nice place with good food and pleasant and service-minded staff! We stopped in for a quick bite to eat before we had to travel on, but can recommend visiting this place for dinner. The venue was a little dark, but that's the only negative. Would love to come back!

The food, the steaks, are to die for!

Been here a few times and have always been overwhelmed by the quality of food and service.

I think so far the best steak I have ever eaten and their creamy mushroom side dish is my favourite. I've already been there twice. I will definitely be going back.

Friendly, attentive service. The tasting menu is amazing value for money and every course is cooked to perfection. The chef is a genius, the way he cooks every cut of beef to perfection and each cut has the most delicious flavours! You will not get better steak and Argentinian cuisine anywhere in Brighton or possibly, the south east of England!!

The service at Baqueano is friendly and welcoming, and the food is delicious and beautifully presented. They just celebrated their 5-year anniversary, and they keep getting better. They made it a birthday to remember with a special dessert plate. Highly recommend for a great dining experience!

Had a family birthday meal here and it didn't disappoint! The food is top notch (and priced accordingly, but so worth it!) and the service is fantastic - friendly, helpful, but not overbearing. First time having chimichurri sauce with anything and now I need it with EVERY meal..!! It's not a particularly cheap dining option, but for the quality of the meat, it's definitely worth it! Will be back!

The waiter Carlos was lovely very attentive and very helpful explaining what the diffrent foods where. The food was amazing would deffinatly recommend this restraunt to anyone who wants to try Argentinian food.

Mixed starter plenty for two and good selection of dried meat, olives, cheese etc. My wife and I both had fillet steak cooked perfectly. Meat was so good didn't need blue cheese sauce. Roasted veg really good to. Excellent friendly service. Only dropped one point on atmosphere because there was a large party in when we arrived and it was a bit noisy to talk but ok after they left. No reflection on restaurant

I’ve loved everything about this restaurant! Dinner with my boyfriend was better then we expected! Definitely will go again next time we are in Brighton 😊😊

Most amazing fillet steak. Great selection of sides and starters too.

Seriously great food! Ribeye steaks were the best we’ve ever had - so tasty and tender - delicious! We also had the creamy garlic mushrooms and a wonderful Chocototta desert; cookies, ice cream and cream cheese - so good!!! We had a late, short notice booking but the staff were all attentive and very friendly. Highly recommended!

Baqueano is such a good experience, ambience, food, service all 5 stars, I only wish I lived in Brighton so I could go there more often, best steak I tried in England for sure. Make sure you book because it’s busy…

Excellent and very deliciously authentic cuisine!! Family friendly. Fabulous staff who made this birthday celebration very special. Thank you

The food was amazing. We had the sharing taster menu and I loved every bit of it. Quality meat and delicious sides. But the best thing about the restaurant was both waiters Adriana and her colleagues. Excellent staff.

Carlos provided amazing service and steak was possibly best I've ever had. Highly recommended

Very good food. The service was great. They went above and beyond to make sure our meal and night are well taken care of. I highly recommend. They got the best steak you can taste in town.

I like steak and I've eaten a lot of steaks but I've never had a steak in the UK as good as the one I've just had at Baqueano's. If you like steak you have to go here. A truly wonderful find (and the lady who runs and her daughter are also wonderful).

Magnificent is an understatement! Great atmosphere, fantastic team, absolutely phenomenal food - one of the best steak meals we’ve ever had. Simply fabulous, cannot wait to visit again!

Best Steak I have eaten in the UK. Excellent service and amazing food.

Everything was 10/10. We had the tasting experience for 2 and it was great getting to try so many different things. The service was very attentive and there was a very relaxed atmosphere. Big shout out to our main server, Carlos! The steak was the best I’ve ever had, the skirt in particular was the most flavoursome I’ve ever tasted. We will 100% be back and will continue to visit their empanada store, Malo.

Most amazing food we had in the UK, the service was fantastic and the atmosphere was great. Highly recommend!

This restaurant was excellent. If I had the money I'd be there every week. The food was perfection, visually stunning and a taste explosion. I had the fillet steak which came with three different sauces, which were all delicious and I ordered the blue cheese sauce too which was very tasty. Too many times I've ordered chips with steak and they have been awful, not at Baqueano, they were perfect. The wine was also excellent, and the staff were incredibly friendly, attentive and helpful. The icing on the cake was the puddings, very rarely do restaurants put any effort into their puddings these days, they are normally an after thought, bought in frozen, tasteless and boring. Baqueano make their own puddings and you can tell, absolutely delicious. This is the first time I've been, and I had such a lovely meal I can't wait to go back.

Honestly one of the best meals I’ve ever had. We ordered the tasting menu for two and we were blown away by the quality, authenticity and quantity of food. The service was absolutely exceptional. Every member of staff was an expert in their food and drink. What an amazing place to celebrate Argentinian food. We will most definitely be back!

Lovely, friendly staff and amazing steaks and interesting menu.

Excellent Steak House. Authentic people Authentic food A great bijou nestled in the heart of Brighton. Will definitely be coming back. Thank you for a great evening

Baqueano Is the real deal. Incredible 45 days aged Angus steak which was cooked to perfection. Crispy on the outside and medium. The side dishes were very well seasoned. Great friendly team that make you feel extremely welcomed.

Some of the best steaks I've had after 12 years in the UK. Thank you!

All is so good we enjoyed a delicious empanadas and BBQ.

Love Bequeano. Have eaten there several times over the years the years and again 28 April. Lovey people and the steak sets the standard for Brighton.

A hidden gem in Brighton. Outstanding quality meat, prepared in authentic Argentine ways, tender and succulent. The service is top-notch and very friendly, with a brilliant host and cosy atmosphere! High recommended!

Best Argentinian restaurant in town! Hospitality and service are amazingly friendly and professional! Food is divine and the wine list is a joy! 40-70£ per person for a an amazing culinary Argentinian experience! It worth every penny! Muchas Gracias Jorge and Adriana! Gaetano and family xx

Really good place to eat a tasty piece of meat.

First time visiting Baqueano and had a fantastic meal with lovely wine and brilliant service! The fillet steak was amazing. We will definitely be returning!

The food was exceptional and Carlos was a lovely guy. Honestly the best steak I've ever had. Will definitely return!

Absolutely outstanding. Best steak restaurant in Sussex and beyond. Very friendly pleasant staff. Excellent service.

Its a excellent steakhouse. I can just recommend that to everyone.

We made a last minute booking Sunday evening and they had availability. Carlos and Adriana looked after us very well. The place has 8-10 tables which made the experience even better

5 stars aren't enough! What an amazing experience. The team are wonderful and really look after you. The food is amazing, the ribeye and sirloin are so tender, perfectly cooked and well rested....perfection. the black sausage, wow! The spicy margarita is to die for. We will most definitely be back!

Amazing team, food and drinks. We would rate this the best steak we have had..... the ribeye and sirloin were simply amazing. Well seasoned, cooked based on chefs recommendations, well rested and such flavoursome and tender meat.

Great Argentinian experience !! Food is exceptional from the steaks , salads , desserts to the wine selection !! A simple menu with great authentic flavours! The stuff is wonderful, very polite … a beautiful family atmosphere! I would definitely recommend to anyone !

I have lived in Brighton and Hove for 15 years and I can honestly say this is the best restaurant for steak around. The service cannot be faulted, you are treated from the owners to team members with every person that greets you being knowledgable about the food and drink menu with a genuine interest about what you would enjoy and what would suit you the most. The steak melts like butter, the wine selection is superb and everything is made better by the team who care about you having a brilliant time. If you go anywhere in Hove/Brighton…go here.

This restaurant is phenomenal. Very small by US standards by the steaks are out of this world. I had an empanada with beef that I could have ordered many of them and made a great meal. But the filet and rib eye that the two of us had was melt in your moth and prepared to perfection.

The best steak dinner in town. Great service, the staff are super friendly and attentive. The food is next to none. A very special restaurant for all types of occasion.

Without being dramatic the steak here is 10/10. Special mention to Carlos, who guided us through a very special meal. The filet steak had a caramelised char which is extremely unique and the chimicurri mash is something you have to experience. Truly unique Thank you so much - a truly special experience

10/10 - if you’re in Brighton you have to visit. I live in London and I’d say this is one of the best steaks I’ve ever had, better than Gauchos, Goodmans etc!

We went to Baqueano for my partners birthday and had the most amazing meal. The staff were so lovely and friendly and really looked after us. We went for the taster menu with wine and what a beautiful dinner. Great value for money and amazing food. They explained what each course was, the wine that went with it and the flavours. They even added some extras for the special occasion. Thank you so much for a night to remember. We will definitely be back xxx
