Review Summary

Vargas is described as an elegant, versatile dining spot where steaks, sushi and seafood shine, with meals praised for fresh ingredients, bold flavors and beautiful presentation. The atmosphere is repeatedly noted as warm and beautiful, with a renovated bar that adds a New York vibe and makes it a good setting for date nights, business lunches and celebrations. Service is often described as friendly, professional and attentive, with staff who know the menu, though a few visits mention slower pacing or occasional missteps in timing or food delivery. Dishes receive strong marks, from tender ribeye and tomahawk steaks to standout sushi plates and creative appetizers, while some sides and seafood platters disappoint or feel pricey for the portion. Desserts and cocktails garner praise, especially the creme brulee and well crafted drinks, though some diners call out uneven value for money. Corporate and private events are described as well organized with efficient wine service and generous portions. Overall, Vargas comes across as a reliable choice for flavorful, quality meals and a memorable night out, with many guests planning to return for celebrations or regular visits.

Een sjiek restaurant en wat duurder dan gemiddeld, maar wel heel goed. Wij zijn er heen gegaan wegens het aanbod van zowel vlees- als sushi gerechten en beide waren ook erg goed.

Snelle bediening en werden vriendelijk geholpen.

So on Saturday me & my friend went to this restaurant & let me tell you. The chef didn't do a good job at all,the Ribeye stake was so chewy & it was suppose to be medium rare was not that at all & it had sea salt on it was most disgusting thing ever I wish they can take it off the menu. & the main course I had calamari it was so chewy to & tight I had to send it back
& the mash potatoes was not good either it was so dry omg. The next time I go back their I want the sous chef Ronald Franklyn to be there cause the chef who works on the weekend don't do a good job..
