The Mog Champ sends his regards. Celebrated being another year wiser at Porteño, one of Sydney's most iconic steakhouses. They live up to the reputation and my first dining experience here was enjoyable. We went a la carte for a group of 6 which cost nearly as much as their tasting menus but gave us more flexibility in ordering. The best starters were their empanadas and tartare, we shared their 1kg tbone and 700g dry aged wagyu between 4 which was just the right amount. Service was professional and they have an amazing atmosphere. They surprised me with a birthday mousse to end the night, thanks for the experience Porteño! Mogliest Regards, Your Mog Champ

We had such a lovely night at Porteño. The service was excellent — it was my husband’s birthday and the staff were so kind and thoughtful, which made the evening feel even more special. The bone marrow was really tasty, although we personally don’t like cumin and there was quite a bit on top. It wasn’t mentioned on the menu, so we had to remove the top layer to enjoy the rest, which was a shame because it looked delicious. Everything else was amazing — the meat, salad and mashed potato were all delicious. We also finished with the flan with dulce de leche, which was the perfect way to end the meal. Highly recommend!

My partner took me here back in October 2025 to celebrate my birthday, and it was phenomenal! Service was great as staff were always attentive and checking in throughout the evening. The atmosphere here was romantic with its dim lighting, and the candle on our table kept us warm throughout the evening. Food-wise, we ordered from one of the banquet menus that catered for a table of two. All dishes were sensational! Notably, the: • Tallow Fried Empanada was buttery and well-spiced • Woodfired Goldstreet Jersey Milk Cheese and Porteño Chorizo had smoky flavours that ties beautifully with the subtle hints of sweetness • Mains were very flavourful, and well-cooked with care The kitchen's efforts with our dessert was incredibly thoughtful as they placed a candle to mark my birthday celebration. It was definitely a wonderful night to remember! Overall, 5/5!

A top steak joint that we discovered by accident. We walked in and they didnt hesitate to get us a superb table. We enjoyed the good food, the delicious steak and the cocktails. Great wine selection too. A bit pricey but cant complain
