Concierge "Enrique Baudonet's inviting hole-in-the-wall brims with the rustic flavor of the Argentine outback. Its interior features sepia-toned photos of old San Juan and brawny hanging hams."
Fodor's "Mostly tourists from the nearby hotels flock to this Northern Argentine regional spot, but you'll spot some longtime locals, particularly at lunchtime." Full review
Time Out "This cheerful restaurant, specialising in the kind of homely comfort food that warms the cockles of Argentinian hearts, is busy most nights both upstairs and down." Full review
Rough Guide "The place to try empanadas, this inexpensive restaurant also has other regional fare such as locro and humitas, as well as more exotic dishes like pickled vizcacha."
Frommer's "Easy to eat on the go, empanadas are a staple of the Argentine diet. There are hundreds of little empanada shops throughout the city, but this one in Recoleta arguably serves the best." Full review

José Antonio Cabrera 5099, Buenos Aires
From $25/night
Concierge "La Cabrera suffers from its own success... But there's a reason that folks keep coming: an above-average array of savory side dishes and some of the best beef in Buenos Aires."
Fodor's "Palermo's best parrilla is on the quiet corner of Cabrera and Thames. Fun paraphernalia hangs everywhere, giving the feel of an old grocery store." Full review
Frommer's "This restaurant has become so well known among tourists visiting Buenos Aires that the owners have also opened another branch up the street for spillover patrons." Full review
Insight Guides "At this popular parrilla (one of the best in town), the tender, not to mention enormous, cuts of top-grade beef come (unusually) with a myriad of tapas-style side dishes."
BlackBook "Bife de chorizo a punto the size of a medium-sized brick, but oh so tender, and comes with all these nifty sauces in little plates."
DK Eyewitness "Reserve, or arrive early for Palermo’s best meat, served in a cozy, classic street-corner bistro or under the sidewalk awning."
Time Out "On an attractive Palermo corner site that used to be a general store, professional staff serve extra-large portions of expertly prepared beef, grilled with a few sprigs of rosemary or sage." Full review
Rough Guide Star
"This fabulous down-to- earth parrilla serves hard-to-beat bifes de chorizo (the half portion can feed two) with an array of delicious tapa garnishes."
Travel + Leisure "Located in the trendy Palermo Soho district, this restaurant serves super-sized portions of Argentine steak to an often-packed house." Full review
Afar Magazine "La Cabrera, situated in beautiful Palermo Viejo, will serve you the best steak of your life." Full review
