38 argentine places in Buenos Aires we have eaten in, sorted by editor score. All cuisines in Buenos Aires | Argentine across every city.
Buenos Aires cooking runs from the open-fire parrilla to the immigrant kitchens that shaped the city, and the modern Argentine table now spans both. Palermo Soho holds much of the gravity: Don Julio on Guatemala and El Preferido de Palermo on Jorge Luis Borges anchor the classic end, while Tegui in Palermo Hollywood and Trescha in Villa Crespo push the contemporary side. For the old-guard bodegon spirit, El Obrero in La Boca and Albamonte in Chacarita keep the traditional plates going.
