    If you really want to have fun get some empanadas, they are all good. Then try the mayonesa de ave salad before some lomito beef sandwiches or milanesa. If the special sounds good then go for it.

    The Petronius Super Tuscan and the Calma Rioja are both fantastic reds. Tons of character in the Petronius and a nice bit of spice to the Calma.

    Milanesa Napolitana is almost like the real thing I got back home. They should pair it with papas fritas (French fries) to make it more authentic.

    The Lomito steak sandwich with cheese & tomatoes is plenty big enough to split with a buddy...and freaking tender & delicious. Spinach salad on the side.

    Try the Beef tenderloin - I love it when I order my steak rare and it actually comes that way. There is nothing I hate more than an overcooked piece of meat

    Fantastic place. Get the spinach salad. Only had to wait ~40 minutes for a table for 2 - which is amazing for a place on 6th on a Friday night!
