    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.

    We approached this place on a Sunday with a touch of trepidation. The enticing website gave it the…read morelook of a place likely to do some serious damage to our wallets. I mean, "the only place in Argentina with a magnetic bar". We didn't even know what that was, but it sounded expensive. Turns out, it's a metal track with magnetized plastic disks that are carried along by whatever magnetic force is beneath, and on which, if there are people at the bar, they send out random tapas that you can grab like dim sum as they pass by. And, it's not expensive at all. At least at this point, the pricing on each plate of tapas is a mere 130 pesos, basically $2, and for the month of February, on Sundays, a mere $100 pesos a plate! Our waiter said there are specials every month on one day or another (check their Instagram account for announcements). We decided to dig in. Our first round: An excellent gazpacho with toast; tasty the classic pa amb tomiquet, toasted bread with tomato and Iberico ham; delicious foccacia with avocado and cured sardines; a really good salmon tartare with oyster sauce on a rice cake; and a decent, if not spicy, ceviche. Swiftly followed by equally good bomba amarillo - a potato croquette topped with a prawn, lime, and chili; and the secreto iberico, pork belly with caramelized onions and aioli. Still not done we went in for scallops in a parmesan crust and a chorizo cooked in cider in a bao. The only real disappointment of the day, the bao itself was chewy and, well, just not right. We finished off with a plate of the day's special, crispy fried eggplant in a mustard infused crust, drizzled with honey. All told, 1000 pesos plus drinks and tip, a bargain for three of us, and easy to recommend. They also have a small store upfront where you can buy some of the products they serve. What's not to like?
