In a Nutshell


Best option for breakfast in Puerto Madero. Nice, contemporary décor overlooking the harbor. Since recent change in ownership everything is top-notch including friendly, well-trained waiters and waitresses.

Read the full review

There are so many upscale restaurants overlooking the harbor in Puerto Madero. Finding a steak or plate full of ravioli is certainly not a problem. Finding somewhere to have a quality casual meal in your Bermuda shorts is quite another story.

But Lobo Café, located on the boardwalk running along the back side of the harbor in Puerto Madero, may just well be the best casual dining spot in Puerto Madero.

Lobo Café lies at the far south end of that string of restaurants on the boardwalk and is open from 8 am until midnight, Monday through Frida, and 8:00 am to 1:00 am on Saturday, serving breakfast, lunch, dinner, and everything in between. The breakfast menu has a bit more variety than your typical café in Buenos Aires. And they’re open seven days a week..

Since a fairly recent change in management, the service has gone from being subpar to very good. A young, well-trained and friendly staff does a better than admirable job of attending to customers and the time from ordering to delivery food is typically better than your average restaurant in Buenos Aires.

The décor is contemporary with natural stained wood paneling on the front of the counter and tables. All bench seating and chairs are painted stark black and the floors are painted with black lacquer. The café is professionally lighted with spots and chrome pendants.

The menu is your typical casual food fare with the addition of a few unique breakfast items and some interesting twists on the lunch and dinner offerings. For the early-risers, they have the typical array of baked goods and desserts, yogurt and fruit salad, ham and scrambled eggs, and French toast. On the savory side, they offer a variety of sandwiches, wraps, and salads, a single pizza option, and a few pasta dishes. And, of course, a hamburger, that was pretty unique and tasty. You can read about that burger here.

I had the French toast on a recent visit for breakfast. It’s served, dusted with powdered sugar, with a little syrup on the side and a plate full of fresh fruit. A much better breakfast than what you’ll find most places. It’s a little expensive, but not much more than you’d expect in this location. They serve up high-quality locally roasted coffee.

All in all, we think Lobo Café remains one of the best choices for casual dining in Puerto Madero. With a pleasant view of the water, stylish décor, and above-average food, Lobo Café is about as good as it gets in Puerto Madero for casual dining.
