Their bread is otherworldly and so is their Bellini.....which is mostly air, but....trust me: you have to have one. I could have drunk 75 of them. They were sooooooo good! And when staff mistakenly threw out our to go pizza, they baked us another one really quickly to make up for their faux pas. North Americans will love this place.

Our Tour Guide recommended this spot and worked out as it was near the last stop of our Excursion…read more Plenty of in/outdoor seating and they were busy around 1:30 on a Friday. Self seating and we waited about 5 minutes before a table opened up outside next to the Gomero de la Recpoleta (massive rubber tree). We've come to accept that slower service is part of the process in this city and no exception here. Our waiter, who seemed to have been working here (along with many of his colleagues) for some time came out after a bit of time to drop off menus. (dressed in throwback/formal Server uniforms which was a nice touch.) The options are endless and we were a bit overwhelmed but quickly focused on the Milanese as this was the dish we were looking to try. You can order what appeared to be a combo which includes drinks (coffee/soft drink etc) and dessert which we thought we did. We ordered a Milanese and Neapolitan Milanese. Sides were fries on one and salad on the other. Enjoyed the Neapolitan as it came with tomato sauce and cheese. Salad was tasty. Milanese was okay. We did pair them with an Imperial Lager (local draft) that came out in a cool mug. We weren't offered the dessert option and didn't bother to ask as we needed to leave. Service was friendly and engaged and, as mentioned, slower so make sure you have time. Located in Recoleta, the oldest restaurant (over 150 years old) in Buenos Aires with a good mix of Locals and Tourists and a good one for a taste of Buenos Aires.

Stopped by La Biela and grabbed a table on the iconic patio overlooking the famous gomero tree…read more It's a classic spot with a relaxed, old-school vibe. You pretty much grab a table when one opens up, and depending on timing, you might end up sharing. Service is very laid back, with staff floating around in no real rush, which fits the atmosphere. Ordering iced coffee took a minute until I landed on "cafe frío," but once that was sorted, it hit the spot. It's less about the food or drinks and more about soaking in the setting, so soak away and enjoy.

Good food, beautiful setting, slow (though nice) service…read more A bit pricy, particularly the wine, for what was served, but I really needed it. The low side was really the service. I had to call the person three times before getting the menu, and it was not rush hour. Then again, they seated me quite promptly even if I got through the wrong door, and cut the line. My mistake. Overall, a good experience.

They have quite an assortment of pastries - many of them made with the puff pastry or croissant dough, pastry cream and quince paste. They also have the standard lard or fat based croissants that they call medialunas and quite a few promotions combining coffee, juice and two or three pastries. It's nearly impossible to find brewed decaf coffee or ground decaf coffee anywhere in Argentina. When you order decaf they basically give you a watered-down version of regular coffee and it is both disgustingly lacking in flavor and still quite high in caffeine which is not good for those of us who can't tolerate it. You're better off bringing some Nescafé powder decaf and ordering hot milk to which you add the decaf powder. We only had coffee and pastries so we can't speak to any of the other food but others were ordering sandwiches and salads and they all looked decent. The staff is very friendly and it's a nice little getaway for a late morning or early lunch snack.
