    Pastry heaven
    Christina L.

    Not sure how I missed reviewing my favorite childhood coffee shop. They are a carb fiend's heaven. They offer an assortment of Latin American pastries, empanadas, finger sandwiches and even pasta in the freezer case. Staff is always friendly and fast. This is a very small space with about 3 tables so don't count on eating in since they are usually packed. Tip: If you decide to visit you may want to visit one of the other restaurants on the block that serve amazing entraña (skirt steak) sandwiches with chimichurri sauce. Also, bring the cash! Not all places take credit.

    Se suponía que hice un pedido de tres leches y al final me sorprendieron con esto

    Pague 75 dólares por un ...Tres leches!y al final que papelon en fin yo haciendo la propaganda de que de ahí eran ricas las tortas al final una torta seca !!! Con mermelada eso lo hago yo!

    Dulce de leche roll and small mini cakes
    Jennifer H.

    I live a block from this bakery and I never knew this place existed. I must have walked by a million times, but never have I pressed my face against the glass to peer in and see what is on the other side. Where was my curiosity as a child? Why did I not ask my parents if I can have some cake? I guess I was just too afraid to venture out of the Chinese bakeries. So when my friend told me about this bakery, I ran out the door to try it out. This place is legit. I fulfilled parts of my childhood by peering through the glass and happily thinking about which cakes I want. If I could, I would gladly press my face up against the glass, but I didn't want to ruin my makeup and make a fool of myself. Rio de la Plata has a ton of mini cakes and cookies for you to select from. Each one is $0.70, or you can buy it by the pound. It was definitely difficult to choose from all the deliciousness. After half an hour of deliberating, my sis and I picked out 5. My favorite was this Neapolitan type pastry with layers of dulce de leche. It was milky, and buttery and it satisfied my tastebuds. The alfajor I was not a big fan of. The alfajor is 2 cookies sandwiched between dulce de leche. I felt that the cookies were too dry for me. The other mini cakes we had were pretty good and all of them had the signature dulce de leche, but there are cakes and cookies without it. We also purchased a dulce de leche roll cake. It was ok. It was way too sweet, and seemed to be soaked in syrup. The cake itself was a little bit dry, and the syrup didn't help it much. I will definitely come back and try some more cakes. Even though the cakes may be too sweet for one's taste buds, the dulce de leche is simply too good to pass on. Perfectly sweet and milky. My friend raved about the medialuna which is this croissant thing filled with dulce. I will have to try that the next time my sweet tooth needs to be satisfied.

    Leftover looks good for the "Tea Time " :D

    We decided to stop by since we wanted to give something around here a try…read more We came in & were seated right away, drinks Passion fruit & Mango shakes w milk instead of water, very good but a bit filling. Chorizo for appetizer great tasting but u may not need it they start u off w some warm bread & cheese, salami app very good depending on how hungry u are I'd say u can skip the appetizer. Main dishes Milanesa à la napolitana this was good, way too many onions but good comes with rice & beans. I had the Pechuga de pollo la provenzal, yumm this was delicious the sauce is so tasty, I got it w tostones great since dipping into the sauce. Next time, Ice tea & Sprite for drinks not bad, no apps since they start u off w that bread. I had the Meat special #4 , This comes with 2 pieces of steak & chorizo , got it w tostones the meat was very flavorful, cooked just right , comes w a chimichurri sauce so good. We also had the Pollo Provenzal again, man that sauce is amazing got it w fried yuca, it was very good. This place is a one stop shop, butcher style Meats for sale, some Argentinian desserts, candy & merchandise they seem to have a little bit of everything. Good size location, decent decor & service. Prices are seasonable since they do give u a good portion size. Good neighborhood spot, this place was a good find & chances are we will continue to visit from time to time.

    After more than 25 years of being customers and spending hundreds of dollars per visit, we were…read moreessentially told we had stayed too long after finishing our meal. That was enough for us to decide we will not be returning. I have been coming to this restaurant for over 25 years. The food has generally been good, which is why my family continued returning and recommending it to others. Our history with the restaurant has not been without issues. Years ago, we stopped coming after a Mother's Day incident involving my grandmother. We had been seated in the upstairs dining room (when it was still open), only to later be told by the owner that we did not have a reservation and that we had to leave. After several years, we decided to give the restaurant the benefit of the doubt and eventually started coming back again. Unfortunately, today confirmed that the earlier incident was not simply bad luck. I was dining with my parents. We ordered two steaks, two appetizers, three sides, a bottle of wine and later a second bottle (of which we only drank half), along with four after-dinner drinks, cappuccino, and dessert. It was clearly a very busy day, and service was slower than usual. Because of the restaurant's pace, our meal ended up lasting a little over three hours. We were patient the entire time and never complained. After we finished eating and were simply finishing our drinks, the owner, Marcelo, approached our table and remarked that we had been there for three hours and were now only drinking alcohol, indirectly suggesting that his establishment was not a bar but a place for dining. Considering that we had just spent several hundred dollars and have been customers for decades, the comment was unnecessary and unprofessional. We immediately asked for the check and left. For context, I am a physician and understand the pressures of demanding work environments. However, professionalism and respect toward customers should always come first. Over the years, my family has typically spent between $300 and $500 per visit here. Unfortunately, after this experience, this will be the last time we come. There are many excellent Argentinian and Uruguayan steakhouses where customers are treated with appreciation and respect, and that is where we will be going moving forward. Después de más de 25 años siendo clientes y gastando cientos de dólares por visita, básicamente nos dijeron que nos habíamos quedado demasiado tiempo después de terminar nuestra comida. Eso fue suficiente para decidir que no volveremos. He venido a este restaurante durante más de 25 años. La comida generalmente ha sido buena, lo cual es la razón por la que mi familia y yo seguimos regresando y recomendándolo a otras personas. Nuestra historia con el restaurante no ha estado exenta de problemas. Hace años dejamos de venir después de un incidente en el Día de las Madres que involucró a mi abuela. Ya nos habían sentado en el comedor del segundo piso (cuando todavía estaba abierto), cuando posteriormente el dueño nos informó que no teníamos una reservación y que teníamos que retirarnos. Después de varios años decidimos darle al restaurante el beneficio de la duda y eventualmente comenzamos a regresar nuevamente. Lamentablemente, lo ocurrido hoy confirmó que aquel incidente anterior no fue simplemente mala suerte. Estaba cenando con mis padres. Pedimos dos steaks, dos aperitivos, tres acompañamientos, una botella de vino y luego una segunda botella (de la cual solo bebimos la mitad), además de cuatro digestivos, cappuccino y postre. Claramente era un día muy ocupado en el restaurante y el servicio fue más lento de lo habitual. Debido al ritmo del servicio, nuestra comida terminó durando un poco más de tres horas. Fuimos pacientes todo el tiempo y nunca nos quejamos. Después de terminar de comer y mientras simplemente estábamos terminando nuestras bebidas, el dueño, Marcelo, se acercó a nuestra mesa y comentó que llevábamos allí tres horas y que en ese momento solo estábamos consumiendo alcohol, insinuando indirectamente que su establecimiento no era un bar sino un lugar para cenar. Considerando que acabábamos de gastar varios cientos de dólares y que hemos sido clientes durante décadas, el comentario fue innecesario y poco profesional. Inmediatamente pedimos la cuenta y nos retiramos. Para dar contexto, soy médico y entiendo muy bien las presiones de entornos de trabajo exigentes. Sin embargo, el profesionalismo y el respeto hacia los clientes siempre deben ser una prioridad. A lo largo de los años mi familia normalmente ha gastado entre $300 y $500 por visita en este restaurante. Lamentablemente, después de esta experiencia, esta será la última vez que vengamos. Hay muchos excelentes restaurantes argentinos y uruguayos donde los clientes son tratados con aprecio y respeto, y allí es donde llevaremos nuestro negocio en el futuro.

The free bread that comes to table warmed was perfect. We also got a small place of a few slices of meat with cheese which was delicious. Nice complimentary touch. I ordered the skirt steak and a side of garlic potatoes. With an Inca cola! Before anything, a nice hefty does of chimichurri was left on our table. Excitement is an understatement. The steak came out and the smell of the char with it being perfectly seasoned was hypnotic. It looked and was super juicy. You don't even need the chimichurri! The garlic potatoes were heavy on the garlic of course and it was great. I just wished it was a bit more on the plate. Very very satisfying meal that does not break the bank. I definitely would recommend checking this place out. I'll be back!

In terms of meats, all the steaks were excellent, with a…read moreparticularly good skirt/sirloin, and in terms of offal, the best were the sweetbreads, tripe, and black sausage. Excellent shrimp in garlic as well. I went to this Argentine spot a couple of days ago with 6 others, having previously been to their long-running Corona location a good while ago. This new location, by comparison, has only been open for a few months. The spot is casual, and the staff is friendly. Before the rest arrived, a few people ordered drinks, including some Mexican beers and, for me, a Quilmes. As with their other location, they gave us some toasted bread and sausages to begin with, which were tasty. There was a nice fragrant chimichurri sauce on the table. We started with two appetizers. The better app was an obligatory one for Argentine parilladas, Provoleta, or Provolone a la Parrilla, listed as grilled provolone in oregano sauce for $11.90. There were also some olives and some yellow pickled peppers, and it was standard and tasty, with a mild oregano flavor. The other one was the $12.90 Ensalada de Aguacate, or in other words, an avocado salad, with some red wine vinegar, olive oil, and Italian dressing on the side. There was plenty of very good quality avocado in there, but the salad otherwise was boring, with mostly lettuce along with some sliced tomatoes, onions, and some cucumber. The main dishes, of course, consisted of two of their parillada, a mixed grill platter, with both of them being ordered medium rare. The first one was their standard Parillada Para Dos o Tres Personas with skirt steak, short rib, sweetbread, tripe, kidney, and two sausages; black and Argentine. For the 2/3 person portion, it was $65.90, and it came with two sides. The Skirt Steak/Entraña on both this and the other mixed platter was wonderful, being tender and juicy with plenty of beef flavor. The Short Ribs/Costillas were flavorful, though a tad fatty. In terms of the achuras, or offal, my favorite of the bunch was the Sweetbreads/Mollejas, being perfectly cooked with a soft texture. I also loved the Tripe/Tripa, which more resembled intestines, which were clearly cleaned very well, as they lacked any gamey flavor. The texture otherwise was nice, and this was most of the others' favorite offal. The Kidney/Riñón was most of the other people's least favorite, with the strongest flavor, but as someone who likes liver, I still enjoyed it to an extent. In terms of sausages, the Argentine Sausage/Chorizo had a mild flavor, and the Morcilla/black sausage was excellent with a snappy casing and a very mild iron flavor. Compared to last time, this was even better. The more expensive of the mixed grills we got was the Parillada Especial Para Dos o Tres Personas, with more skirt steak, along with Flat Steak, flat rib, short rib, shell steak, and sirloin steak. This was $80.90 with 2 sides, and was also excellent. My least favorite, as before, was the short ribs, with the rest of the steaks having a mix of textures, with my probable favorites being the Flat/Vacio and the Sirloin/Cuadril. It was a ton of perfectly cooked meat, but it felt a bit boring by comparison this time, with the offal being so good on the other platter, compared to the other location. Our only other main dish was the $25.90 Camarones al Ajillo, or shrimp sauteed in garlic sauce, which was also served with one side. For a steak place, the shrimp here were better than most steakhouses, being plump and juicy. The delicious garlic sauce paired wonderfully and was especially good with the various sides. This was an expected hit and a necessary bite between all the various meats. For the free sides, we got two of the Plátanos Maduros, along with Arroz con Habichuelas, Ensalada Rusa, and Papas a la Provencal. Our favorites were the sweet plantains and the rice, especially with the meat juices or garlic sauce added. The Russian potato salad reminded me of a thicker version of salad Olivier, with plenty of mayo. The papas were the plainest, and I presume the Papas Frita/French Fries were better, but we chose not to order them. As we were already very full with a bit of leftovers, the postres/dessert was Panqueques Con Dulce De Leche for $9.90. These consist of crepes filled with milk caramel, and they were rich and tasty. It was great to share, and it was a good ending to the meal. We gave a generous tip, got leftovers, and still spent around $38 a person for some excellent food. Would recommend heavily, just like their other location. Rounding up to 5, or rather cinco estrellas.

For one thing, everyone who works there is so welcoming and friendly, and the food is absolutely delicious. I was there with my husband and brother, and we shared the ham croquette appetizer and one of their meat platters that came with two sides (we opted for the potato salad and roasted potatoes). We also shared a bottle of Malbec. The croquettes were perfectly salty and crispy, and the filling had a nice texture. The meats were so tender and well seasoned, and the sauces they provided (chimichurri and two different hot sauces) took the meats to another level. The potato salad was nice and creamy, and the carrots and peas added a nice touch. The roasted potatoes were delicious as well. I will definitely be back soon to try more dishes!

Our group of 8 walked in a cold winter night, to a warm wood adorned interior with dim lighting making for a cozy intimate feel putting me right at ease setting me up for a great night. We started with a pitcher of Sangria - they make an excellent version as they brought out fresh crusty bread, chimichurri and butter. Grilled Provolone with prosciutto made an awesome cheese pull and was fantastic on their bread. The Calf Tongue had a good texture and marinated with olive oil, vinegar and garlic heavy. The shrimp and avocado salad was packed with fresh delicious ingredients. For the main event it is grilled meats all the way. The Argentinian Grill gives a nice sampling - we ordered 2 so were able to get 4 sides - French Fries Provenzal, Sauteed Spinach, Broccoli and Onions. The skirt steak is the standout and now that I tried a sampling I would probably focus on this the next time I am here. I enjoyed the sweet breads and chorizo, but found the Short Ribs a little tough and Blood Sausage is not really my thing. The service was very attentive and friendly making for a fantastic all around experience. I am happy La Fusta exists I hope I never know a time when it no longer does. Come with a group or just a duo and you will be treated to a great time.
