Found this place quite by accident. Sat down for a cafe and medialunas only to discover a little…read moretreasure. The place is no secret among the denizens of Recoleta; it has a constant stream of customers for the pastry counter, seemingly never-ending! The tortas (mini-quieshes) are ridiculous! I had the broccoli two days running. The medialunes are far superior to those found in typical cafes of this type. Even the cafe con leche is better than expected. I didn't look at their menu but it looked like they serve a full lunch. The service is great: take and deliver your order, then leave you in peace until you make eye contact. Prices not super low, but quite reasonable. Cafe con leche and 3 medialunes for 42 pesos ($4) at time of writing. If you want table service just find a seat and be patient. For the pastry counter, take a number from the red dispenser and enjoy the cornucopia of edibles before you. They carry a small selection of jams, chocolates and other accoutrements above the counter. And they have a restroom for customers.

WOW. Their butter medialunas are the most delicious I have ever tried. I seriously cannot stop eating them. I wake up and go buy them, fresh, warm, and full of flavors that don't dissapoint.

We grabbed a quick lunch here. Cute shop, nice wait staff and food was delicious and reasonably…read morepriced. Honestly one of the better places we found to eat in Buenos Aires!

The portions are enormous which they should be for what you pay. Two things irk me about Maru, they don't take a credit card which is ridiculous for all the business they do and how much their cakes cost, I'm honestly tired of places not taking cards to not pay taxes. All the Maru's I've been to are insanely small inside, tables packed in tight making an afternoon tea super loud and not too enjoyable. If you're lucky you can snag outdoor seating.

Outstanding. Will definitely be back. Everything is made fresh in house daily. The lemonade is…read moreamazing. Great local business
