Argentine cuisine
Argentine cuisine is a true art of living, a blend of tradition and conviviality. At Cafetin de Buenos Aires you'll find the classics that make the country's gastronomy so rich: meat empanadas, choripán, and the famous tira de asado (beef short ribs) grilled without sauce to let the exceptional quality of the Argentine beef speak for itself.
The menu
The menu also celebrates iconic dishes such as ensalada criolla, a vibrant mix of meat, avocado and cashews, alongside dulce de leche desserts, including the celebrated alfajores, Argentina's signature biscuits. A generous, authentic cuisine that tells the soul of a people and invites you to share.

Pair your meal with Argentine wines, cocktails such as the Buenos Aires with Fernet Branca, or traditional liqueurs like Legui.

Argentine beef
A symbol of the country's gastronomy, Argentine beef is recognised worldwide for its exceptional tenderness and incomparable flavour.
Sourced from small, non-industrial farms, every cut comes from cattle raised free-range on the vast green plains of the Pampas. The animals graze freely on fresh, natural grass, giving the meat a rich and authentic flavour, no additives, no shortcuts.
Dry-aged beef
At Cafetin de Buenos Aires, we carefully select our meats, some of which are dry-aged to bring out their full aromatic depth and melt-in-the-mouth texture.
Flame-grilled on our traditional Argentine barbecue, they express all the generosity and nobility of a craft passed down from generation to generation.
The Argentine deli
Cafetin de Buenos Aires offers a selection of typical products direct from Argentina, including the famous Havana alfajores and dulce de leche.
Available directly at the restaurant to take away or as a gift.
