Alvear Grill is the result of a recent change of direction at the Alvear Palace Hotel. The new restaurant, that boasts a more contemporary menu, with an emphasis on grilled fish and beef, replaced the 25-year resident of the hotel, the French restaurant, La Bourgogne. The change was needed. But now, what is essentially a steakhouse wearing a tuxedo is a bit odd. Once you get past this incongruity, everything else is splendid, both service and food. Skip the steaks and go straight to the page with the duck and venison. That’s where the kitchen shines.

Piegari Carnes offers excellent steaks and quality service in a sophisticated, albeit somewhat stale ambiance. Very expensive.

La Brigada is the quintessential Argentine steakhouse. It’s the "real deal". Despite its humble surroundings in San Telmo and the quirky decor, La Brigada somehow manages to transcend it all and achieve steakhouse stardom. It’s first class from the steak knives to the big, juicy steaks. Do the bone-in ribeye or the t-bone for the experience of a lifetime. It’s very, very good.
