Rotisería Atlantico – Buenos Aires
Trendy décor with bar-seating only. No tables. Open kitchen where the parilleros do their thing is right behind the largest counter-height table. Read the review for wine tips.
Bao Kitchen – Buenos Aires
Despite a boring décor and confused waiters, Bao Kitchen offers true-to-form Asian food done better than almost anywhere in the city (except Sunae Asian Bistro). Specialty is steamed buns.
Lo de Jesús – Buenos Aires
For our money, Lo de Jesús offers similar quality in a superior ambience and at a better price than nearby parillas La Cabrera or Don Julio. It’s the best steakhouse in Palermo.
Croque Madame – Buenos Aires
The Croque Madame location on Libertad received good marks after repeated disappointments at the locations on Uruguay and Callao, and now-defunct location in Alto Palermo. The Libertad location is worth a visit just to see the beautiful landscaping in the lawn behind the restaurant.
Xalapa – Buenos Aires
Fairly authentic and well executed Mexican food with big portions at an very good price. Located in the heart of Palermo Soho. Worth a visit.
Farinelli – Buenos Aires
Café with pleasant ambience and décor that offers some breakfast and several lunch items (mostly sandwiches and salads). Spotty service.
