"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.

    Pros - food was great , and atmosphere lovely . Cons- hostess pointed in the direction of our table , and left us to walk there. Which seems odd for a place that makes such an ordeal of their reservations , credit card hold , cancellation policy and 10 min grace period. Waitress was nice , but not attentive at all . Plates were left , and we had to ask for drinks after sitting in front of empty glasses . I don’t usually leave reviews , but it’s seems to be a pattern here . A shame , the food is really good . It’s the little things that make the experience off .

    I got the trio lunch. I don’t care for thigh meat although theirs is almost white so I get extra chorizo. Started with a ham and potato soup. Their soups are amazing. Th e chimichurri steak was cooked perfect. The ratio pepper potato salad was great. I had French 75s to drink. Their mixed drinks are awesome. We recommend lunch to try it out before the big evening experience. Which is phenomenal.

    Beet salad was abysmal. Maybe one slice of a beet quartered in the entire bowl of arugula. Lobster Mac n cheese would have been spectacular with much less salt. Lobster is briny enough. Needed a better balance of flavors. Definitely glad I asked to withhold the bread topping.

    HIGHLY recommend! Second time here celebrating a friend's birthday and was just as impressive. Abby from Georgia, our server, was fabulous. Her timing between the salad and entrees was perfection. I had the Steak frites and OMG, fantastic! I was expecting great flavor from a flat iron steak but not a lot of tenderness... it was tender as my heart and bursting with flavor! The potato wedges were the best I have EVER HAD! Go here and bring your appetite! PSA... if you order their garden salad ($12.50), you can share it with three other people. It is HUGE, EASILY ENOUGH FOR FOUR PEOPLE. It also is very underrated- the add-ons in this salad are fantastic.

    Asado Life is a wonderful choice for lunch. Outside sitting is lovely by the water. Service and food are excellent.

    A friend and I came here for lunch, and it was our first visit. Everything was delightful, the food was delicious, and we agreed that Asado Life is a place we’ll go again with friends and family. The Marketplace is a nice touch, too. It will be a place to find unique gifts.
