Okay, I hate eating at 7 or 7:30 pm (still feels too early), but I did not mind for Buenos Aires. Part of the earlyness was because of our large group size (though they don't take reservations, you can give them a HEADS UP if you call earlier so they can start setting up a table area), 14, and the flavors and textures of the food were excellent. Any empanada is worth trying-flaky but not heavy, savory and hearty. They even have ones w/o meat, for those who are vegetarian. The churrasco is homemade and SPECTACULAR and has a little spicy flair to it. Obviously, if you are here to dine, you are likely a carnivore. Their signature dish is the Entrana (skirt steak - it's a churrasco, if you will). Flavorful, juicy (mine, medium rare) - arrive hungry, so you can finish it. They also make pasta and parmagiano dishes if you aren't into a steak. Sorry, no hard alcohol sold here, but who cares? Have a beer or try any of the numerous Argentinian wines (there's a fantastic oak-fermented one, reasonably priced!). Dessert was standard stuff - wonderful sorbets! I hear the flan mixto is great (had no room to even try it)... but next time, I'll try the port that 2 people at our table had. Smelled strong but the flavor was concentrated and sweet and it also had a smooth finish. I left quite happy (and stuffed)!!
Pros: AUTHENTIC Argentinian cuisine, Hememade sausages/empanadas, low cost wines
Cons: Won't seat large group until EVERYONE present; sometimes a long line to dine
