Every Buenos Aires visit deserves a trip is not complete unless you visit Las Lilas for amazing steak and dining experience. We were in Buenos Aires for a few days prior to our Antartica Trip and asked our concierge at the Sofitel Hotel where we could go for a true Buenas Aires Steak experience. Without any delay he said that we must try Las Lilas. A simple ride over and beautiful location at the site of their redone area along the riverside. Much like every other city is doing. Restaurants. apartments, shops and lots of young people enjoying themselves. We walked inside this beautiful Steakhouse and elected to sit outside where we could enjoy the beautiful view and atmosphere in lovely warm weather. Let me be frank.... Walking into a beautiful Michelin restaurant is pretty much the same around the world. You walk in with a smile and high expectations. Right here in the beginning I will say that the team and service was impeccable from the beginning. Flawless in my opinion. They came over in introduced themselves while bringing us some water, cheesy bread and taking our drink order Appetizers: Three styles of tomatoes. Selection of cheeses from their very complete collection. Main items: 16oz PIcahna steak (shared) Fried Potatoes (shared) Of course the wine was Malbec which paired so perfectly with all the amazing food. I am not going to go through each item other than saying everything was 'over the top' delicious. My friend said to me that once you've had Buenas Aires Beef you'll never forget the amazing flavor. Even through my wife likes her meat more on the well side, it retained the tenderness and unbelievable flavor. There is definitely a reason that a place like this become a Michelin Restaurant. Cabaña Las Lilas is flawless and judging from the look on the faces of the other diners around us.... They thought so too. Please see the pictures I added. Many people shared as the portions are very generous. KUDOS to the team at Cabaña Las Lilas read more

Every Buenos Aires visit deserves a trip here for amazing steak!! My well done steak was perfect and still so moist. Only in Argentina! I ate so much steak, I start googling risk for gaut! On this trip, I gave up waiting for table so I got take out instead. I got the filet lignin, truffle fries and passion fruit cheesecake. Order was completed within 15min they packed it with so much care! Swoon. You can stand at the open window and watch everything! Make a reservation so you can experience the atmosphere, complimentary cheese bread and get your steak straight off the grill! But yes they do take out! read more

This was recommended by a local friend and was great. The setting along the waterfront was beautiful, and the service was attentive and refined. The steaks were high quality and consistently well-prepared. It felt more formal than some neighborhood parrillas. A great choice if you want a scenic, elevated dining experience in Buenos Aires. read more

Expensive but you get what you pay for. The meal was delicious and each component was perfectly prepared. My wife had the salmon filet and it was great and I had the ribeye steak which was perfectly cooked and flavorful along with a baked potato. We ordered a bottle of wine with the meal and it was perfect. Appetizers of cheese, bread, were a great start to the meal. If anything you may consider sharing an entree, the portions are that big. We paid $185 USD for the meal and bottle of wine but it was worth it to us as we seldom treat ourselves like this. read more

Food was very good. Wine list is extensive. Could be romantic for couples with nice view of the boats docked across the canal. A bit slow bringing the check once we asked (at least 15 minutes). read more

Fantastic service. Well presented dishes. I'm not sure about the chimichurri. Tried the sweet bread. I would take the server's suggestion get half order. Ordered too much after all. It's over priced for sure because it's not hard to find great Argentinian steakhouse in Buenos Aires. But they make it up with great view of the riverfront, beautiful indoor decor ambience and professional service, I'm in professional. read more

Found this gem while taking a walk around my hotel for a recent conference in BA. We decided to go as a group for dinner. The vibe was classy yet comfortable so we decided to enjoy some of the outdoor seating. Service was great and they kept the wine flowing while we dined on shared appetizers and enjoyed each other's company. The provoleta is always a fan favorite. I had the Lomo because hey, it's Argentina and what is better than a Lomo?! It was cooked perfectly and had a ton of flavor. A few others shared the Tomahawk on Flame which was a visual treat and delicious! They use cognac to burn and flavor the mean (YUM)!! As if we weren't full enough, we had an assortment of desserts from cakes to crepes...everything was delicious. If you're in the area and looking for a place for some good eats, stop by Cabaña las Lilas! read more

Fantastic steak. My wife and I got the tenderloin and an order of fries split between the two of us. The waiter asked if we wanted to split the steak, we should have listened. We each got an enormous 14 ounce steak, it was juicy and had amazing flavor. But it was way too much for one person. I rolled out of the restaurant happy and full. Highly recommend. read more

Came during the week, got early and we were promptly seated. We had a big party, and the waitress was extremely patient and helpful. We had a share-plate of meats with picanha and the "soufflé potatoes" that were fluffy and crispy at the same time. The steak was cooked to perfection and needed no extra seasonings! Loved it. My fam got empanadas and chorizo and carpaccio and everyone loved it. I waited for the meats and didn't disappoint, and we watered everything down with a delicious Argentinean Cabernet Sauvignon OMG! Perfect! For dessert we shared the dulce the leche crepe and the milhojas too. Sooo good! The service was a little slow but excellent and the place was bright, plenty of tables, clean and well decorated. Excellent value for your dollar, definitely recommend!!! read more

Amazing steaks and ambiance. Seemed slightly overpriced as it is one of the more expensive places I have visited in the city but the meal was not to be under rated. With a rancher style and vibe in the interior, the mood was set for giant, delicious steaks. I got the 1000 gram shareable steak and it seemed much bigger than advertised. Two of us were no where near finishing it and was amazing. read more

Our concierge recommended this place because it was walking distance from our hotel, and we wanted to get a really good steak. We went for an early dinner as we had been traveling all night, so there were very few people in the restaurant. Hubby and I each ordered the rib eye. They were a full 12 oz. And each were cooked exactly as we preferred. We also ordered sides of the grilled vegetables and truffle fries. Each of the sides were more than enough for 2 people and, between the steaks and the sides were were unable to finish everything. The sommelier was very helpful in recommending a wonderful Malbec to go with our delicious steaks, and he also provided more information about Argentine wines. Overall, a great experience. read more

We were looking for a new place to try. Saw the good reviews on Cabana Las Lila's and it was also close by our hotel in Puerto Madero. Restaurant is upscale and has a dark interior. Upon entering, there is a wall of wine bottles. We made early dinner reservations and seated on the patio with a nice view of the canal. Their bread service is better than other places we have been to. It had a number of spreads as well as salmon. We ordered T-bone steak medium rare to share. Had deducted one star (half a star really) for undercooking it... it was rare than medium rare. Not sure if our server got confused. When they brought out the steak, they will cut it up for you before serving. Nice touch. We also ordered a side of truffle mashed potatoes which were delicious! Tip: Steaks in Argentina tend to be on the larger size. People tend to share the steak rather than order their own. Overall, amazing service, food is amazing and located in a great location. Will be back next time we visit. read more

So we're in Buenos Aires on our way to meet our cruise ship and spent the night in town. I looked at Yelp, of course, for reviews and had it narrowed down to two places. Following the Husby's rule of "if there are lots of cars in front of a place it must be good" we looked at the crowds between this place and the other and there were lots more people here... so we tried it... and it was good. It had inside and outside dining. We chose in because we just aren't used to this heat. First off, you have to remember that this is European-style dining and if they put something in front of you and you eat it you have to pay for it. I knew there was a charge for the bread and relish plate, but we were hungry and everything looked amazing... and, it was - hummus, fresh mozzarella, cheese dip, relish, and more. The bread was soft and warm on the inside, perfect crunch on the outside. A separate plate of little cheese bread balls was served and those were equally yummy. The server (who speaks English and Spanish) gave good wine recommendations. A local Chardonnay for the Husby and a pleasant Merlot and Cab blend for me. Speaking of service, top notch; always looking and seeing what was needed including topping off our waters, carrying away plates, etc. All very friendly. Dinner is where I took a star off. The Husby had the fish of the day; vegetables were good but a bit charred and the fish was mild but not flaky. It had a flavorful sauce, but needed just a bit more salt. I got the lamb. The meat came pulled apart in a sauce on top of truffle mashed potatoes. Something was off on the seasoning of the lamb, and I honestly can't say what. I thought at first they might have been too generous on the truffle oil on the potatoes, but separately that wasn't it. I just can't explain, but at $60 for the plate I can't say it was worth it. So one star off. Dessert, though, truly made up for it. They brought a beautiful display of dessert bites, but again if you eat you have to pay for it... we didn't because we were saving ourselves for the homemade ice cream... so worth the wait. The Husby is a connoisseur of ice cream, and he was having a moment of pure bliss proclaiming it's the "best ice cream I've ever eaten." It was truly good. We had the dulce de leche ice cream and it was so rich and decadent. If we hadn't eaten dinner we might have gone for the ice cream tasting. Maybe when we come back (like for next year's cruise), because this is definitely a restaurant we'd come back to again if only to try all of the other dishes we saw going around us as we ate. And, I didn't even talk about the after dinner tea I had which is their own custom blend of black tea, Patagonian berries and "scented" with dulce de leche. A superb end to a pretty good meal. Given the current exchange, we paid about $165 in US dollars. read more

Don't go here! Tourist trap! If you live a bit in Buenos Aires you might learn to avoid my mistake of going here. I'm sure the ratings come from mostly American tourists. This is a very average steakhouse in Argentina, the only thing that stands out is ... they charge you 3 time the price of a good steakhouse here. But for our American friends, I get it, the price is normal. When I ordered water I notice they served me fancy water compared to all other tables. Other table got normal bottle water but mine is a totally different type as I speak English. They never asked! Then they serve you the normally bread spread (appetizers) n oil at steakhouse. I loved it. I ate all the cheese breads but left everything else. I then asked for more cheese breads. They decided to remove ALL of my untouched spread (shown in photo) for no reason and served totally a new one. And no, they are not free! They charged me for both bread spreads. They are really trying hard to make money here. Foods: foods here are ok, not bad but not great either. I had wagu beef at $60 dollars at a more fancy steak house last week, but here for the same it's $120. For a normal ribeye I paid $15 at another fancy steakhouse in Palermo, here it's $50. I took picture of the menu here for your reference (it's in peso, 1 dollar = 850 peso). Just don't go here guys, you are in Argentina the land of steak! Do not fall for this tourist trap. Don't fall for our American friend's naive reviews. read more

This is probably the 2nd. best steak restaurant in Buenos Aires, only behind Don Julio which is recognized as the best steak house in the world. I have been coming to this restaurant for years, on every business trip I take to BA. The only problem with this restaurant is that it will compromise your level of steak quality. If you are here for a few days no other restaurant will measure up to Las Cabañas. If you have never been here, treat yourself, this place is ex read more

Our meal was disrupted by a group of loud, drunk people who were literally screaming at one another. The management did nothing. It was so bad that we paid our bill and left. On the way out, one of them was passed out on the bench in front of where the food is grilled. When you can't enjoy dinner, much less at an expensive restaurant, because the management allows this behavior, something is very wrong. read more

Tasty food. Modest serving sizes. Ultra high prices. Price-performance ratio is not there. If you visit Argentina chances are a notion will nag at you to try Argentine beef while you're in country. This restaurant rates in the top 200 restaurants in Buenos Aires. The fact that it places in around #143 depending on the time and source of evaluation may suggest there's a good reason it is not #1. Judging by my experience at eateries all over the world spanning decades, this place is, simply put, way overpriced and overhyped. read more

In a thousand places before you die. Told this is a tourist trap along the waterfront of Puerto Madura. Heard that they place food on your table that you haven't asked for & and hence charge you for it. Happening next door was recommended. read more

Cabana las Lilas is an excellent restaurant along the Puerto Madero or old port in Buenos Aires. The area has a long string of 4-5 story buildings with restaurants all along it. Most have covered outdoor terraces and also indoor dining rooms. This restaurant was recommended by the concierge at our hotel and was our first dinner in Buenos Aires. Good cocktails and good steaks. Service was very good. You have a lot to choose from along Puerto Madero, but you can't go wrong with Cabana las Lilas. read more

After many years of not visiting this establishment, because it had become ridiculously expensive I returned this week only to find (1) that they have rationalized their prices and (2) that they are as good as ever. Unfortunately, it seems that their prior policy and the pandemic has not been kind as for lunch we found the restaurant on a Thursday to be almost empty. Notwithstanding, service was attentive and polite. They do try to push a plate of "delicacies" (salmon and a tiny cáptese for $20) which is ridiculous but you say no and they understand. We ordered the empanadas and the burrata to start, delicious. Also, from the most extensive wine list I believe I have seen in Buenos Aires a very nice blend at a not so disfavorable price was chosen. Entraña was simply gorgeous, like butter you say? And vacío to die for. Oh, and those soufflé potatoes! Side salads. The works. Including dulce de leche pancakes. The place is gorgeous, the service is on spot including the fact that you always have a maitre at your disposal. This was my favorite asado place in Buenos Aires until it became impagable, I guess we are now on the same page and I am definitively glad as we had a wonderful meal here. read more

Food, views, and service were all amazing. Prices are high for this country, but I'm guessing you'll know that before you show up. Do not skip out on the bread, the bread was AMAZING!!! Comes with a lot of different spreads, my favorites were the salmon and something that tasted garlicy. We ordered rib eye steak medium rare, truffle mashed potatoes, and grilled veggies to share. We were told the portions are too small to share, but we split anyways, and we both didn't finish our food (maybe too much bread beforehand lol). The food was really good, the grilled veggies were okay. We sat outside and had a great view. For dessert, we ordered dulce de leche lava cake with banana ice cream. The lava cake didn't have the lava effect where the middle comes gooing out. It was still really good and also very sweet! The banana ice cream pairs really well to balance it out. read more

I've been coming to Buenos Aires for years, because my work often brings me here. And recently a friend of mine invited me to lunch at Cabaña Las Lilas & this restaurant is known to be one of the best & one of the most expensive restaurants at Puerto Madero. I ordered the ojo de bife (ribeye steak) & it cost about $20 USD. A great price, I thought! The steak was cooked perfectly & I'd gladly return here again for this dish. The views of the river are nice & it's sidewalk dining, when you're outside. There's a lovely indoor dining room too. It was a relaxing & delicious steak lunch. Before ordering, the server will bring an accompaniment of breads & butters, & that doesn't even cost $2 USD. The tip is not included in the bill. So, we left an additional 18% to show our appreciation for the exceptional service we received here. A customary tip in Argentina is 10%. l've included some pics in this review. Enjoy! But keep in mind, there are so many restaurants to choose from at Puerto Madero & I've never had a bad meal here, at any of the other restaurants. read more

Obviously Cabana Las Lilas caters to tourists, being priced and located accordingly. That said, the food is pretty good and the showmanship-- especially if you order a big enough steak to be delivered hanging on a cart and finished with flame-- is much appreciated by the guests. A seat outside on the terrace in the summer isn't a bad place for the sun to set, either. If you want something exceptional, you will need to look elsewhere. But if you're in the area, new to Buenos Aires, and need a satisfying meal, Cabana Las Lilas will probably do the job. read more

One of the prettiest restaurants I've seen. Have eaten here 3 times. Good food, but expensive. Lousy service. Very few of the waiters know what they're doing. Even fewer know what they're serving!

Went here on our first night on recommendation of our concierge. The food was good but its definitely overpriced and kind of a tourist trap. You are paying extra for the waiters traditional outfits and their location on the river. I was very annoyed that they brought out an appetizer combo plate without us ordering it and then charged us for it. I would have preferred to pick out my own appetizers from the menu. We did love the eggplant. So many much better options all over the city. read more

After our private morning tour of BA, my spouse and I were dropped off at the south end of the Puerto Madero. We decided to grab some lunch so we walked north along the pier, taking in the sights and searched for some fare. We came upon Cabaña Las Lilas, a place my spouse dined at on a prior visit. Remembering it was good, in we went but left soon after as I really didn't want to eat meat yet again, nor consume organs. I thought I could find alternatives but, no dice. ATMOSPHERE: The restaurant overlooks the harbor and is great for people-watching. We sat outside despite the nippy conditions but heaters kept us fairly warm. MENU: Argentine-style apps, salads, steak, wagyu, pork, fish, dessert. Very pricey, even for lunch. FOOD: Bread Platter - $6.00 (per person) They brought out a spread of breads with jams & marinades and placed it on the table like it was complimentary. After a few questions, we were informed there was a charge so we declined it. Sneaky! You do get a generous piece of complimentary bread with olive oil after the fact, so be forewarned. Vegetable Soup Not wanting to be rude and not ordering anything, I opted for a cup of soup which was very low in sodium and not even worth taking a picture of. SERVICE: We were greeted and seated immediately despite the crowds. Waiter service was a bit slow and averagely friendly. OVERALL: Nice ambience, pricey, great for carnivores (which I usually am but was on overload that day)! read more
