"The true essence of an Asado engages family & friends long before the food hits the table."

ASADO LIFE is a full-service, experience-driven waterfront restaurant. Nestled along the picturesque San Sebastián River, Asado Life offers a dining experience like no other. Whether you're enjoying a romantic dinner or a lively gathering with friends, the serene backdrop of the river enhances the ambiance of our restaurant. At Asado Life, we believe in the art of live fire grilling—a method that infuses every dish with unparalleled flavor and aroma. Our chefs skillfully harness the power of open flames to create mouthwatering grilled specialties.

Our Asados are rain or shine occasions. We have covered dining areas in the event of rain. Please dress to your comfort level for outdoor dining.

We do not allow outside wine or beverages.

    To maintain our live-fire cooking style and preserve the authenticity of the Asado experience, we offer our signature entrees for preordering. These meals are prepared hours in advance and cooked low and slow in order to achieve the smoky, rich, bold flavors that develop over a longer grilling time. We do not accept cancellations or changes within 48 hours of the scheduled Asado. Cancellations will be refunded less processing fees. Our Asados are rain or shine events. We have ample covered dining areas, and limited indoor seating. Please dress to your comfort level for outdoor dining.

    Really disappointed by the restaurant. After making the reservation which I had to guarantee with a credit card, I found out they only serve the lunch menu all day in Sundays. Waited at the hostess stand for 10 minutes for someone to seat me. I finally walked over to the bartender who called a server over to seat me. She became my server. Overpriced: small overpriced drinks; $3 for two slices of bread. It might be better on a regular night with more customers but last night was a waste of my time and money.

    With all experiences the first impression is the most important. Asado needs to take a hard look at how the young hostesses communicate with the clientele upon arrival. We arrived a half hour before our reservation time and were directly told that in no way we would get seated prior to that time. Ok, we went out to the outside area and enjoyed watching the cooks outside. There were 2 empty 4 person high top tables at the outside bar. I asked if they were available at the bar and was told that they were reserved. Ok, waited until the hostess would collect us for our table at 7:30. At 7:40 I went and stood at hostesses table while other guest arrived and were seated. I finally asked about our reservation and OH, yes follow me. We were then seated at one of the empty high tops at the outside bar. Very rude hostesses and not just to our party but to many as I observed.

    We have been there multiple times and had an amazing experience, but this time it wasn’t that great. We preordered the tomahawk steak and the the spaghetti squash. The tomahawk came out already cut up, which has never happened before and was a lot less meat than prior visits! My spaghetti squash was lacking flavor and vegetables. Prior orders it was filled with broccoli and roasted big carrots. This one had pre cut baby carrots and no green vegetables and a half of onion. For the money that was spent on the experience and the food, it was a complete disappointment.

    We were celebrating a birthday, and enjoyed our lunch in your beautiful setting. It would have been nice for our server to acknowledged the occasion.

    My husband preordered the tomahawk and had enough left over for two more meals. It was cooked perfectly! I had the Bronzino and it was amazing.
