Modern Palermo parrilla with excellent steaks, lively vibe, and strong wine focus, but pricing is high and hybrid self-service can frustrate some diners.
Why it gets a B for overall quality
TOMAHAWK delivers solid steakhouse performance with excellent meat quality and doneness control and knowledgeable staff recommendations, but inconsistent execution—occasional overcooked steaks and burnt items— prevents grade A territory. The hybrid counter-service model and smoke accumulation issues further limit the experience, though the modern Palermo Soho setting and strong wine program appeal to serious diners seeking quality Argentine parrilla without pretension.
Restaurant Summary
Set on a lively Palermo Soho corner, TOMAHAWK blends a modern room and a buzzing grill energy where the wine wall draws you in and steaks hit the fire. Reviewers highlight warm, English-friendly service and a vibe that feels celebratory without going clubby. One diner summed it up: ribeye cooked perfectly with a Malbec that just made sense. Note that this is a hybrid counter model, so expect fewer table check-backs than a traditional steakhouse. On the plate, the approach is classic parrilla elevated: ribeye and tenderloin lead, sweetbreads pop, and provoleta gets a dressed-up version. Think quality-driven grilling more than culinary theater. Portions track the listed gram weights, and while many praise the meat, some find sandwiches and sides lean for the price. If you want a strong cut, helpful pairing advice, and a modern setting, this fits the bill. Families can do well here thanks to kid-friendly staples like fries, empanadas, milanesa, burgers, and simple salads. That said, the grill can be smoky and the hybrid service means you may need to fetch items yourself. No kids menu is noted; choose straightforward dishes and sides for younger diners.
