特雷斯·萨亨托斯酒店

Few places in Buenos Aires are as original as Bis Bistró, located in a charming passageway full of shops that inevitably draws comparisons with the romantic alleyways so typical of Paris. This bistro, which could be described as the younger brother of the renowned Aramburu (located opposite – chef Gonzalo Aramburu is in charge of both), has a classic ambience that comes as a pleasant surprise, having retained its 1950s-style bistro essence and appearance (high ceilings, globe lamps, long banquettes, mirrors etc) alongside a glass-fronted kitchen and a small bar. The reasonably contemporary à l

When you ask for advice on the best steakhouse for grilled Argentinian meat in Buenos Aires, this large-scale restaurant in Puerto Madero, featuring lots of private spaces and an open-view grill, is always mentioned. In this pleasant eatery with an elegant air overlooking the river, the undisputed star of the menu is its grilled meat (veal chitterlings, mixed offal, ribeye, Summus Rubaiyat picanha etc) from different breeds of cattle, although it also offers a good choice of cold plates, salads, fish of the day, and an impressive array of side dishes. The restaurant is located just a few metre

If you’re an inveterate meat-eater, you’ll want to head to the República de Fuego, a restaurant with a young and informal vibe occupying an old restored house in the city’s Recoleta district. In this setting, which has retained the homely feel of the original building and which has preserved several “vintage” features such as the original and delightful flooring, everything revolves around the traditional Argentinian grill. Dishes have a contemporary twist in their presentation and are always based around premium cuts of meat that chef Gabriel Pérez prepares with the greatest of care. Highligh

This iconic eatery, where they unashamedly claim to have served “the world’s best meat since 1935”, has had a few locations over the years providing the backdrop for myriad anecdotes, but nowadays finds itself in the heart of the Puerto Madero waterfront district, just a few metres from Dock 4, where the legendary A.R.A. “Uruguay” corvette (now a floating museum) is moored. The restaurant’s interior has an exclusive, elegant feel, and provides the backdrop for traditional Argentinian cuisine where meats cooked on the parrilla grill take centre stage. Despite this focus, you can also enjoy an a

Honesty is always appreciated when it comes to choosing a restaurant and this is especially the case in districts such as San Telmo, home to the National History Museum, where the standard of dining options is high and a vast array of cuisine is on offer. In this restaurant with a family atmosphere, a classic decor featuring retro detail and tables packed close together, the full focus is on home-style cooking showcasing consistent, simply prepared dishes teeming with superb flavours. The impressively large windows here provide plenty of natural light as well as occasionally serving as an exte

If we were to rank the best Argentinian hotel restaurants, Elena, occupying the luxury Four Seasons Hotel Buenos Aires, would definitely figure high up on the list! Aesthetically inspired by the interior of old houses in the San Telmo district famous for its tango venues, it features a private dining room in the wine cellar and a main dining space brightened by a large glass dome, with an open kitchen to one side (note the ageing cabinets full of different cuts of meat). The culinary concept here, in what we would describe as a contemporary steakhouse, is traditional with meat (Angus sirloin,
