Café Seúl is a good choice for a quick coffee and pastry in the morning, or an Asian inspired rice bowl or sandwich at lunch or dinner. Reasonably priced, and reasonably authentic. One of our favorite choices for a different take on lunch near downtown.
Boca de Toro joins a handful of top-notch Spanish restaurants in Buenos Aires. The menu offers a handful of Spanish, mostly Andalusian, classics with a sprinkling of dishes showcasing the chef’s unique viewpoint on the cuisine. The ambience is slightly upscale but inviting. The service is top-notch. A positive addition to the dining scene in Buenos Aires and one of the few restaurants in the neighborhood, surrounded by small hotels, that provides an upscale dining experience.
Quotidiano, with multiple locations in the city of Buenos Aires, offers casual-dining experience with a varied menu that emphasizes pasta, but includes salads, sandwiches and vegetarian and pescatarian choices as well. Modern, trendy, slightly industrial décor. Adequate service with quick delivery of orders.
Gaston Acurio brings his highly popular Peruvian seafood restaurant, Cebichería La Mar, to Buenos Aires in Palermo Hollywood. In a city that sorely lacks good seafood options, La Mar is a breath of fresh (ocean) air. With excellent food and service without any serious competition, the cebichería is sure to be hit with the trend craving locals and visiting travelers alike.
Brasserie Petanque hits the nail on the head, bringing real French culinary classics to Buenos Aires in a high-energy atmosphere that makes it all the more special. Kudos to the guy in the Napolean disguise for this ‘triumph’.
