Not as great as the other great historic bars of Buenos Aires…read more But great historic bars in Buenos Aires are pretty good. This is a mortal and not a god, But it is a fine fine mortal. * * * There is a major campaign in Buenos Aires to preserve the great cafeterias and bars of the Golden Age of that city. There is government money behind some of this. There are wonderful entrepreneurs who truly believe in what they are doing behind all of this Most of the rescued places are five star all the way. This one is merely four star - but that makes it better than many places in your home town. * * * They don't have a house vermouth here. The waitress told me the founders of the house invented La Fuerza vermouth, which is arguably the greatest commercial vermouth in Argentina. A little internet research showed she was full of petunias. La Fuerza was invented in Mendoza and not in Buenos Aires, by four people who do not have the same name as the person who created the Los Galgos Bar. But I think the waitress was sincere, and really believed her story. I was not unhappy to be drinking La Fuerza regardless of who invented it. La Fuerza is simply good stuff. * * * Los Galgos is more run down than the bars that have seen all-out restorations. From the floor up to the six foot level, everything looks wonderful. A camera could tell great stories about the room. But like many historic Argentine bars, this is a thirty foot high room. Everything from Foot Seven to Foot 30 is cheap awful industrial that has seen a lot of wear and tear. You feel like you are in a grungy warehouse that has had water damage. You go into the great restoration bars and everything you see is magical. * * * None of these problems have any relevance to what is going on in the kitchen. The cooking here is just fantabulous. I had an absolutely amazing salami platter/sandwich The salami was on millefeuille rather than standard bread. Argentine millefeuille when it is good is to die for. The millefeuille was at the top of the millefeuille game. The combo came with first rate green peppers. (Argentine sweet peppers of any color are better than what you get in the U.S.) Superlative olives Good enough grapes and a nifty mustard. I was one happy camper. * * * Normally when I am in gastronomic bliss, My eyes tend to roll up to the ceiling. I had to avoid that here because the ceiling was great at destroying the mood. But if I kept my focus narrowly on my plate or on my lovely wife, I could do okay. But food this good deserves to be rewarded ... Particularly if you are washing everything down with La Fuerza.

The food is good. The service is based on the ability of the kitchen to produce. That is, the…read moreserver was attentive, but food is delivered to your table whenever the kitchen has it ready; it does not all appear at once or in any logical order. You may, for example, receive just potatoes, but not any meat. Then a lone plate of pickled egg plant arrives. And so on. Somewhat strange. This place describes itself as a vermouth bar, so there are many options for vermouth based drinks ... all very tasty. We had 4 or 5 different types. They have wine and beer, although the wine was rather pricey for this type of restaurant. The atmosphere is a blend of tacky, quirky and found items; a mish-mash of photos, paintings, miss-matched glasses, etc., with no particular theme. The lighting is far too bright, reminiscent of a 24-hour pharmacy, but there is a good sound track playing that is even louder than the din created by the patrons. We were surprised that the server brought us the check before we asked, indicating that there were people waiting to be seating. That was the first time that has ever happened to us in Buenos Aires! And it was not appreciated. Food - 4 stars Ambiance - 3 stars Service - 2 (that is 4 stars for the server and 2 for the kitchen and 1 star because they brought the check too early) Notwithstanding some of the negative aspects (bad lighting, out of sequence food delivery), we had a good time and will likely come back.
