13 Fronteras is the dream, and now reality, of U.S. born chef, Dave Soady. The chef utilizes local ingredients prepared with classic European techniques and a big dollop of imagination. This is gourmet food in a bistro setting at bistro prices. A very big ‘go’!
Campo Bravo targets a young, ‘jet set’ crowd. The ambiance and vibe are more energetic and contemporary than your typical Argentine parilla. No hokey cattle-ranch décor. Steak quality is good. Execution and service on par.
Wildly popular steakhouse. Almost always a wait for a table at both lunch and dinner. How do they do it? Nice ambiance. Great for people watching. And it’s cheap. Not good quality but apparently that’s not important the to hordes of locals and tourists that make this place one of the most popular restaurants in the city.
Don Julio’s walls filled with empty wine bottles left behind by patrons are the focal point of this interesting and highly popular steakhouse. Despite recent price increase it’s still one of our two favorite steakhouse in Palermo Soho.
Las Violetas is the best little Confitería in Buenos Aires to get a glimpse of what affluent life in Buenos Aires was like in the early 20th century. The building and café’s décor are unequaled in Buenos Aires. Culinarily speaking, not a masterpiece, but a don’t miss this little piece of history.
