El Palacio de la Papa Frita
El Palacio de la Papa Frita Review
This longtime standby is popular for its fanciful Old World atmosphere and hearty traditional meals—steaks, pastas, and salads. The papas soufflé (inflated french fries) reign supreme; try them à la provençal (sprinkled with garlic and parsley) along with the classic bife a medio caballo (steak topped with a fried egg). You don't come here strictly for the service or the food, you come here to soak in the porteño lifestyle.

We ate in many great restaurants during our month in Buenos Aires but El Palacio was our very favorite. We ate in all of their branches and found them consistently excellent. We were thrilled when we discovered one on Laprida street within walking distance of our apartment.The food was always well prepared, delicious and the waiters were so polite, helpful and friendly.
