Roman’s selection of 120 day wet-aged, grass-fed black angus beef cuts are grilled on an Argentinian parrilla at a slightly lower temperature and for a longer period of time – similar to the Patagonian method of barbecuing crafted by Buenos Aires-born celebrity chef, Francis Mallmann. Argentine cuts are lean, tender and full of flavor. Pair your meal with Prohibition-era cocktails and both classic and rare European and Argentine wines. Dining at Artango is a memorable journey to Argentina.

    Wow this was such an incredible dining experience. The food was incredible - we started with the charmoula shrimp and shaved Brussels sprouts salad. The salad was so fresh and delicious. I had the sea bass with mushroom risotto and the fish was maybe the best cook on a piece of fish I have ever had. The risotto was delicious. My partner had the ahi tuna main and it was so good. The service was pretty perfect - there when we needed something but not fussy at all. We will definitely be back to try all of the things on the menu that we couldn’t eat at one meal!

    We’ve passed through Eden on multiple occasions, noticed it when taking my Lab to MedVet & Eye Care for Animals. Staffers remembered our Anniversary (week) celebration (I forgot the note on the reservation 😛). We didn’t anticipate the complimentary beverage. Most establishments don’t offer anything these days, we really appreciated the gesture. Drinks are strong, I went w/ Manhattan, wifey w/ Hot Toddy. Food was great. I opted for Burger w/ Fries, wifey ate Duck Banh Mi w/ Eden Salad. I’m not a big fan of Kale but the side Salad was amazing!!

    Awesome Cod dinner !! Service was “on point “ our Server was there when needed . Perfect service to match an amazing dinner . Although It became very loud , and while sitting close to my friend , we could barely hear one another . ( understood that Ante Prima is popular ! We all love ❤️❤️ your food !!) My only request would be is to make additional adjustments to defer the noise . Noticed the ceiling fixtures to absorb sound . Maybe add a few additional. I / we will return ! Btw : you have a great hostess , who is always gracious and friendly .
