Il Gran Caruso – Buenos Aires
Traditional Italian restaurant specializing in homemade ravioli and other stuffed pasta. Food was good but not great. Ambiance is Just a little on the stale and boring side.
La Crespo – Buenos Aires
A unique restaurant menu that’s a mix of New York delicatessen and Jewish and Eastern European classics. This is one of Ollie’s O’s favorite lunch spots. The problem is deciding whether to have the pastrami on pumpernickel or the lox on a bagel sandwich. Why not have both?
La Dorita – Buenos Aires
Quirky. Busy. Fun. Higher quality steaks than nearby Las Cabras and easier to get a table. When it’s busy service can falter. Hungry? Try the veal ribs with french fries. One order is easily enough for two. Unless of course you’re a bear or mountain lion.
La Hormiga – Buenos Aires
Popular bistro-style restaurant in good location in Palermo Soho offering indigenous Argentine cuisine plus steaks, pasta, salads and other more common menu items. Expect a wait for a table and possible problems with both execution and service.
Lupita – Buenos Aires
Trendy Mexican Food with very nice decor. The chef has attempted to modify and glorify Mexican food but has not been entirely successful. Some of the dishes like the enchiladas were quite tasty, despite being nowhere close to authentic.
