LA ESQUINA DE BUENOS AIRES
Read moreInstalled in a small house from the end of the 19th century, this restaurant run by an Argentinean is by far one of the best restaurants in the capital. Javier Peire wanted to recreate the atmosphere of the Argentine restaurants of the 1940s, and it is very successful. A deliciously romantic atmosphere amplified by tango tunes. As for the dishes, everything is delicious. The meats are good to die for, especially since they are perfectly sauced (Malbec or Roquefort in particular).
MIRADOR RAM LUNA
Read moreThe Viennese folklore has an appointment on the heights of the Central Valley for typically ticas evenings. You will listen to the traditional dishes (in buffet form and with an open drink bar). The most awaited show is that of traditional dress dancers. Let us not forget the panorama offered by this viewpoint, where the festival is especially honoured in the week. A safe value for almost 50 years!
