To celebrate Father’s Day, Argentinian steakhouse Gaucho is launching its brand new, all-you-can-eat and drink brunch, paired with Verve Cliquot champagne for the ultimate treat. Best of all, on Father’s Day dads eat for free—yes, really.

Beef lovers won’t want to miss the unlimited selection of mini empanadas, slow braised back ribs, a variety of ceviches, and different cuts of premium grass-fed, succulent Argentinian beef. For non-beef lovers, there’s salt-baked chicken served with grilled lemon and sea bream risotto served with lemon and basil.

The dessert bar is no less impressive, with its banana and coconut mess, indulgent chocolate brownies and the decadent dulce de leche cheesecake.
