Where to eat Latin food in Buenos Aires: The Best Restaurants and Bars

March 15, 2020 Deane Carmody

Find out what Latin restaurants to try in Buenos Aires. Buenos Aires is a cosmopolitan city, a melting pot of very different types of people who have shaped the identity of each of its neighborhoods. Wave after wave of immigration, along with the porteños’ penchant for looking abroad, have infused each area with its own unique features, be it Recoleta’s aristocratic legacy or San Telmo’s love affair with tango.

Great steak, good service. We didn’t book so had to stand in a queue to get in (so would advise you to book). We were lucky and accidentally arrived earlier and were high up in the queue which grew very quickly. Nice touch as those waiting were given a glass of champagne as you wait!!! Don’t over order one of the bigger steaks would easily feed 2.

In a city with generally terrible service, and poor quality food on average, these guys stand out - the service is excellent, and the quality of the ingredients is excellent. They won't serve you anything sub-prime. Huge respect for these people.A friend from Hong Kong visited me not too long ago, and literally after trying several options this was the only place she wanted to eat.

Stopped in based on TA reviews as I’m was staying in hotel nearby. I tried to get in Sunday evening and it jam packed so I came back after lunch a few days later. Got a spot, but still crowded. Ordered el diablo and it was outstanding. Good pork sausage with very good sauces to add. Added a lager draft and it was a great lunch. Definitely will go again before my trip ends.

While it's no secret that Argentine beef is worth flying around the world for, visitors to Buenos Aires don't always get the chance to experience an Argentine asado and it's many rituals and traditions. An asado is so much more than a piece of beef on a p

This was worth every dollar/peso and then some. 5 courses with 5 wine pairings with pretty damn good food for about $70 USD was a good deal especially given how liberally they pour the wine. Also, my NY Strip was so damn good and fresh that I didn’t add anything to it. No salt. No sauce. Nada. I just enjoyed it as is. Also, Slylvenia who was in charge of the asado could not have been nicer or more welcoming. What a fantastic experience. I just wish the asado went on for longer. Do it. This is worth it and then some. Thank you so much for your rescomendation S8284BMjamesaIt's great to know that our customers really enjoy our Asado, as much as we do!You will always be welcome to enjoy our tradition together, best regards from the hole Team!!

Reviewed By Vicki S

Did what so many others do, try it once and because the food is excellent you return. The steaks are great, we went with the chorizo and also tried the flank steak which was superb, tender, juicy and full of flavour. The baked vegies are a nice change if you want a vegie hit, it's more like a ratatouille, rustic fries are great too. Staff speak English and they will also provide you with a menu in English.Price is very reasonable and as the open at midday, you can go anytime in the afternoon till late at night

Having eaten in our fair share (or more) of high-end restaurants, dinner at i Latina was truly outstanding and memorable. i Latina, like all the best of the best we’ve been fortunate to experience, has unique flavours, compositions, presentations, decor and service. Words like impeccable, delicious, original and satisfying all come to mind. To top it off the staff were not the least bit stuffy. Rather I felt like they were warm and engaging and offered excellent descriptions of each plate along with just the right amount of friendly conversation. My wife and I had the tasting menu with the full flight of wines. We were really impressed by the wine selections and all were regional and new to us. We were even offered a complimentary additional tasting since we didn’t have coffee or tea at the end of our meal.All in all We highly recommend this restaurant.

The Fogon experience is excellent! The staff take you on a journey through a traditional Argentine asado and explain the cooking process, the ingredients and the history as you enjoy the meal. The wine pairing is carefully thought out - I would recommend the Premium selection! The food itself is delicious and abundant. The restaurant is set up so everyone is circled around the grill in the middle which makes it easy to speak with other guests which I believe adds to the experience. You will leave the restaurant with lots of new information and a full and very happy tummy!Dear Guest, Thank you for taking the time to review us. We are delighted to see you enjoyed your evening with us. At Fogón Asado we aimed to create an experience that would closely resemble the asado tradition of Argentina whilst still feeling indulgent and elegant. We wanted to combine the social aspect of asados, often missed in many restaurants, and the typical cuts with a modern twist and feel. Our goal is for our guests to enjoy themselves, eat some the best meat our country has to offer and, hopefully, meet new people, for asados are always best enjoyed amongst friends and family! We always take great care in the preparation and presentation of our dishes, we love sharing our culture and introducing new people to this wonderful tradition of ours. We hope to welcome you back soon, Kind regards The Fogón Asado team.
