El Gaucho

El Gaucho is a legacy of legendary service, blending impeccable service with exceptional quality. Our team of talented chefs and dedicated staff provide old school, tableside service for people celebrating their lives. Each ritual, from the greeting at the front door to the fire-dancing desserts, honors the past while sharing our vision for fine dining. Founded in 1996 by Paul Mackay, El Gaucho has expanded from its original location in Seattle to several others across the Pacific Northwest, including Bellevue, Tacoma, Portland, and Vancouver. Each location is designed to provide a unique dining experience with meticulous attention to detail. The El Gaucho experience features fresh seafood selections and 28-day dry-aged Niman Ranch All-Natural Prime Certified Angus Beef, prepared on a one-of-a-kind charcoal grill. We invite you to escape to a world of shimmering candlelight, live music, and the anticipation of an exceptional dining experience, where every detail is carefully and thoughtfully executed.
