What people say, in short
Tantxo at Waterworks Food Hall is recommended for a more budget-conscious steak meal rather than a full-service steakhouse. Commenters praise steak frites and chimichurri steak sandwiches, including an Argentinian cheesesteak recommendation. Several mention a Monday offer; confirm any current special before relying on it. One diner found the portion substantial but would not place the steak among the city's top tier.
