    We came here for lunch with a large group. The service was well prepared. When we arrived, the tables were already set with our salads, which was your basic salad with lettuce, tomatoes, julienned carrots, corn, boiled egg, and a little avocado. Then they distributed our pizzas from the wood-burning ovens. Al Prosciutto - salsa di pomodoro, mozzarella e prosciutto cotto (salsa de tomate, muzzarella y jamon cocido): Not bad, not great. The crust and cheese were nice, and the prosciutto was not too salty, but the sauce was a little lacking. Focaccetta - mozzarella e cipolla (muzzarella y cebolla): Good crust, as pizza from wood-burning ovens usually is. The onions were nice and sweet, but I thought they could have been baked a little more, and just a little less raw. Vanigilia Gelati: The meal finished off with vanilla gelato, topped with something that was a cross between dulce de leche & chocolate sauce. The texture was okay, but could have been creamier. One thing to note: the water pressure in the bathrooms was almost nonexistent, just a light trickle of water when I wanted to wash my hands... This was a pretty good place to organize a meal with a large group. Pizza is a safe choice for a lot of people. I wouldn't say this is a must try restaurant in Buenos Aires.

    Truth be told, we were heading to Dill & Drinks, which we found in the latest Lonely Planet guide (daily lunch special that includes 2 cocktails (!)), but found the location (San Martin 986) was now a branch of Wasabi's Sushi. Wasn't feeling it, and Filo was across the street. Free stuff is always good and some bruschetta appeared while we were perusing the menu (http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/filo-buenos-aires?select=8jwTfkIJzpPZe7VgKPu56w#WhjMYf6mP0PtDyetiHsqbg) The g/f got the Al Brie Salad (brie, lettuce, arugula, walnuts, eggs, smoked salmon, shrimp; with olive oil and lemon juice http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/filo-buenos-aires?select=8jwTfkIJzpPZe7VgKPu56w#BFMzlzT2rnIFUWB68QR51w). Pretty big with fresh ingredients. There's some grated cheese in addition to the brie making this a little heavier a salad than expected. I got the Baghette de Pan de Salvado con Lomo Fileteado rucula y salsa filo, AKA Steak (filet) Sandwich with argula & Filo sauce (http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/filo-buenos-aires?select=8jwTfkIJzpPZe7VgKPu56w#SST03R6z6Jw1Bz3ZTCH8YA). Pan de Salvado is a wheat bran bread and this had black sesame seeds on top with a single ~5mm layer of filet inside (http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/filo-buenos-aires?select=8jwTfkIJzpPZe7VgKPu56w#QGbJU6C_eghmM9DxTKavAA). The steak was really tender and I wished for more of it. The "Filo sauce" appeared to be a mix of mustard and mayonnaise (http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/filo-buenos-aires?select=8jwTfkIJzpPZe7VgKPu56w#nnZYRFfbAqqiWg7aNIPZBw)

    Delicious!

    Perfect me time place to escape for dinner. The pizzas are great! This time I tried the spaghetti with clams and mussels from Patagonia. I ordered mine without the tomato sauce, it was excellent.

    Cumaná features a menu so expansive and diverse that dining here sparked excitement. That and the…read morerestaurant's cute cat, who roams the floor, utterly content. The menu is all over the map - with something for everyone - but the things I focused on over 2 visits were traditional offerings and a sweet potato dish that might not be traditional but ought to be. On my first visit I tried a traditional Argentinan stew called Locro. Baked in a clay oven and served piping hot, Locro featured white corn, beans, squash, and meat. I was enjoying it well enough until the sweet potato dish arrived at which point all bets were off; that dish got all of my attention. The menu features a "wood-fired potato and sweet potato" category and it was from that small offering that I'd opted for the sweet potato topped with creamed corn, honey, and walnuts. During my first visit - and even on the return visit - I'd have sworn this dish was covered in melted cheese. It was not. But the combination of flavors and textures was so immensely satisfying that I couldn't wait for a do-over. During my second visit I again ordered the amazing sweet potato (and a Northern-Style Tamale, a bottle of wine, and flan). Everything was, again, quite delicious but that sweet potato? It was fabulous and one of my top flavor sensations in a month of travel. Cumaná serves immensely satisfying food that differs from what you find elsewhere. You can go with pizzas and pastas but why, when the menu is filled with gems rarely found elsewhere. And as for that sweet potato? I never saw anything like it on any other menu. Miss it at your own peril.

    On our last day in Buenos Aires we decided to have a late lunch before our flight and with many…read morerestaurants closed between lunch and dinner, we discovered this restaurant which was open. What an amazing find. I started with a ham&cheese Empanada, and for my main dish the spinach cannelloni. It was delicious!!! Filled with flavor that I could not stop eating. My father, who lives in Buenos Aires ordered the Locro which I had to try and once again, delicious (but a little spicy so you know). My wife ordered the mondongo, which she really liked. My son ordered the chicken quesadilla which he enjoyed and my daughter ordered the potato gnocchi which I did try, because it's hard to find a place that makes good gnocchi, and they did. They were very flavorful!! The service was great. Our waitress was very friendly and attentive. The place is very nice inside but a bit dark, but it was also a cloudy day with rain which didn't help. My father was so happy we brought him there so now he has a new place to eat and bring friends to try the food. My only complaint may be the bread they served the table. It was hard to eat it with butter because it kept crumbling, but don't eat too much bread, because the portions are big and you will want to eat every bit like I did. Enjoy!!!
