La Escondida - Buenos Aires

We were five blocks away so we went to the restaurant in the friendly neighborhood. Menu was in Spanish, but our beautiful waiter has delivered his phone and helped us to order with a translator app... When we finished the order, he looked at our order and with facial expressions and gestures let us know that we had ordered WAY Too a lot of food so that we had our Asado order up to 3 for the five of uslol.. The food was AMAZING and we ate everything... but could not even remember ordering dessert., we were all completely filled until the bride with delicious .... the meal was brilliant and extremely good value

Fabulous food and service What I like best was the food. easy to eat amazing place and have fun.

I went there twice during my business trip. Always good meat a rich salad buffet delicious wine. The friendly staff and the typical atmosphere in Argentina with Asado makes your stay unique. The only point is unlikely. I tried to pay with MasterCard, but there are only visas possible. Large SFI

Nice location, good food, but horrible and I do mean horrible service! Stumbled upon this place by accident and thought I’d give it a try. Decided to share a steak with a friend, as we weren’t that hungry but wanted to try their food. Server was average and took our order. Noticed that everyone was going to the salad bar so I asked whether it was included and the server told me no and that I would have to pay quit a bit extra to have it included. After having had our steak without ANY garnishes, I decided to get a second opinion and was told that yes it was included! When I went to the front desk and told the manager about this he basically said to me...so what do you what? Are you kidding me? I said excuse me? He told me that since we were sharing the steak, that we were entitled to only one free salad bar and that it couldn’t be shared. I told him that I uderstand, but that it wasn’t explained to us as such by the waitress and that we’d have to pay extra. So again, his comment...so what do you want? Wow! I told him I’d like an apology and to ensure that this doesn’t happen again to future guests. He tried to shrug me off, so I did what you have to do in order to get respected here in Argentina...I became rude and demanded that the discount my bill...and voila. Problem solved, but not really as I’m never setting foot again in this place! How rude! How idiotic! They seem to think that their clients aren’t important! Well I hope they realize very quickly just how important we are! Do yourself a favor...avoid yourself the anguish and aggravation and go and eat elsewhere!

As someone who prefers a more vegetarian diet (but will eat meat like anyone else), I was happy to get a recommendation (by my host) to a place that had salad bar. And on top of that it was a nice non-touristy, friendly space where one could eat quietly. First, the salad bar: lots of options besides just vegetables. You could definitely make a meal out of it. It does come as part of purchasing a main entree, which we did. I went back twice to get some good veggies. The beef: Oh Argentina... it's all about the beef. The lomo de bife is the way to go. My fellow diner, who lives skirt steak, ordered it and it was a bit tough. I say go for the lomo and enjoy it's heavenly tenderness and delicious seasoning. Prices were so affordable, you wonder if they forgot to add something to the bill. But nope. It's that good and that affordable.
