The Best Restaurant in Recoleta, Buenos Aires

Background Illustration for Restaurants

Arguably Buenos Aires’ poshest neighborhood, Recoleta is the epicenter for high-end shopping, museum-going, and white-tablecloth dining. It’s home to most of the swankier hotels, and many of them house excellent restaurants, but it’s also home to a good number of classic spots that have been serving up high-quality fare for decades.

The somewhat touristy Village Recoleta area has a mix of old-time cafés like La Biela and Munich nestled side by side with family-friendly steak- and pasta houses. There’s also the city’s first microbrewery, Buller, and a few nightclubs for those who want a little late night fun.

Tandoor

$$ | Barrio Norte

A favorite of the local Indian community, Tandoor is a destination for embassy officials who want a food fix from home. It's no surprise that it's also a winner with American expats, many of whom are looking for something a little spicier than the local fare. When the place first opened the chef went full tilt on the picante, but he eventually toned down the spices a bit to appeal to a local clientele. You can always add in more chilies, available on request. The room is chic and sleek, and the service is polished. At lunch there's an inexpensive prix-fixe menu option.
