El Globo

El Globo Review

Much like the neighborhood in which it resides, El Globo is touristy but good. Hearty pucheros (mixed boiled meat dinners), roast suckling pig, squid, and other Spanish-Argentine fare are served in a large dining area, as they have been since the restaurant opened in 1908. The cazuela de mariscos (seafood stew) is another specialty.

  • eatsleepbreathe, from California

    1 glass of house white wine
    1 langostino plate (6 cold shrimp)
    1 pulpo (squid)

    $180AR - this is madness...i have been dining well, including high-end tourist, never exceeding $100AR!!!

    Squid was not bad, with potatoes. The shrimp was horrific, the spine was not even removed - black and staring at you from the plate, cold - I had much better at any grocery, cold shrimp cocktail.

    Should've asked, so yes my fault, but then again no prices on the menu (englais).. BE CAUTIONED!

    I realize there are a few threads touching upon this question, but haven't seen any recent posts so wasn't sure if things have changed.

    I land at EZE at 9:15am on a Sunday and plan to fly to USH that afternoon. Read more
