Christmas is all about feasting and luxury, so where better to celebrate the season in Cardiff than at glamorous steakhouse Gaucho? Gaucho Cardiff is set right in the heart of the Welsh capital, just a short walk from both Cardiff Central and Cardiff Queen Street stations, making it easily accessible for anyone travelling in from further away.
Inside, Gaucho Cardiff features the same slick, steakhouse style that has made it a nationwide sensation. Cosy tub armchairs and plush leather banquettes provide comfortable space for you to enjoy a long meal, whilst towering ceilings, glowing chandeliers and a bustling open kitchen make Gaucho Cardiff feel like a grand occasion. Gaucho has always drawn heavily on the steak traditions of Argentina, and the Cardiff restaurant draws parallels between the Welsh capital and Buenos Aires, with copper shades and black steel accents that reflect the two cities’ mining heritage.
For those hosting private Christmas gatherings, Gaucho Cardiff has a number of impressive areas for hire, alongside luxurious steak sharing menus. Cosy drinks parties should head for the Ground Floor Bar, which has room for eight seated guests. Larger groups have a choice between the Terrace, and the Private Dining Room, which host 20 and 26 seated guests respectively.
Gaucho’s festive menus celebrate the very best steak available, focusing on Argentinian classic cuts like spiral cut ribeye, sirloin and rump. Sharing menus also include starters like beef and olive empanadas, and signature desserts like hot cookie dough with dulce de leche and vanilla ice cream. As well as a range of sharing menus, Gaucho also has a canape menu, perfect for those planning a more informal Christmas drinks party with nibbles.
