About this spot

💡 Tips before you go
- Order a glass of Malbec to pair with your steak, as this is the standard local pairing for red meat dishes here.
- Expect to share large plates of grilled meats and sides with your table rather than ordering individual entrees.
- Look for the outdoor seating area along Caminito to soak in the vibrant street art and tango atmosphere while you eat.
