American goes to American breakfast spot- fork found in kitchen…read more Jay's was my boyfriend's favorite brunch spot when he lived in Buenos Aires so we had to visit. I grabbed a vanilla iced latte and we both got some eggs, toast and side dishes. I got some hash browns and he got pancakes. Wow the hash browns were so good. And I'm normally super picky about my pancakes but these were also incredible. They also give you a cup of maple syrup which I didn't think would be enough for me but it was alright. I got a cheese omelette which I didn't like too much but I traded it with my boyfriend for his scrambled eggs- I highly recommend the scrambled eggs, they have a really incredible seasoning. And the hashbrowns. You order at the counter and your food is brought to you. You can pay with a credit card. This place definitely feels like a sports bar/breakfast spot and they even had my local teams flag up on the wall! Skol Vikings! The latte also was very good, probably the best one I had the whole trip.

An American visiting Buenos Aires, found this on Google by simply putting in American breakfast …read more we had been here for five days and I was craving an American breakfast and JAY'S did not disappoint. I don't really want to complain because basically the taste I was craving I was given. I do not speak the language, but I thought they understood I wanted my egg over medium or like the picture at least Sunnyside up and I got a full on fried egg ( fully cooked) so that will be my only complaint I don't like my yolk fully cooked. a very small place so you may have a wait, they don't rush you to get up. it's quaint it's not many tables. The menu is pretty easy to read with all the regular American cuisine for breakfast. bacon eggs, pancakes, waffles, etc. you look at the menu at your table and then you go to a window to order, we were told that when we were seated ( quickly forgot ) we are not used to that so we did forget, we sat for minutes wondering when someone was going to take our order and then we remembered we had to go to the window . even though you have to order this way, they do bring your food to your table. Our host/waiter was extremely nice. I'm sorry I did not get his name, I'm from California we talked a little bit about the decor. He told me he was a Spurs fan. MY HUSBAND got an iced coffee with no ice at all. Super sweet tasted more like chocolate milk with whip cream. It was OK for me. I did not order that myself . it was crowded but we were able to be seated just the two of us in about 30 minutes but if you're from out of the country and you're from the states, JAY'S is the place to go . the food was delicious over cooked and all.

Did Don Julio's live up to the hype?…read more Can any restaurant ranked #10 in the world by World's Best Restaurants -- and crowned #1 steakhouse three consecutive years -- truly live up to its reputation? I'd say yes, and then some. A word of advice: sit inside. That's where the magic happens. The open-flame grills roaring indoors create an incredible ambiance -- intimate, lively, and unlike anything else. The outdoor seating is charming in its own right (cozy blankets draped over every chair), but the interior is the real experience. Service was exceptional. Before we even ordered, our waiter personally walked us through the kitchen to introduce us to the various cuts on display -- a thoughtful touch that made the whole meal feel like an event. We settled on the ribeye and one other cut, with the ribeye stealing the show: thick, juicy, and cooked to perfection over open flame. To top it all off, the meal came with complimentary champagne, chorizo, empanadas, and dessert -- generous extras that made an already outstanding dinner feel truly special.

This was one of the things I was most looking forward to on this trip, and I made a reservation through our hotel months in advance. Fantastic meal overall. The steaks were great. Service was on point right from the beginning when they gave us wine and yummy corn empanadas when we arrived. The chocolate-covered dulce de leche at the end was delectable.

Regardless of how you feel about Peron, the food here speaks for itself. I've found complexity in…read moretheir flavours that I haven't quite experiences in the average Argentinian cuisine. To start, the empanadas are absolutely delicious and I highly recommend them. The menu otherwise was quite rich. We got the Milanesa, and the Ossobuco on polenta. I found the Milanesa to be a touch on the greasier side than I am used to, but it was delicious! And the Ossobuco on polenta was quite rich, especially with the bone marrow - I had a hard time finishing this, but I highly recommend it. The portions are quite large, so sharing dishes is probably not a bad idea. I am also pleasantly surprised by the cocktail scene of Argentina, especially Buenos Aires! There was a spicy version of a Negroni on the menu that the staff warned me about but I kind of took it as "they probably mean it's a strong drink" But NOPE - it is actually spicy! As a spice lover this was really interesting, but not for everyone. The ambiance of the dining area was quite interesting with photographs and memorabilia. If I had one little advice for the restaurant, maybe fix up the bathrooms a little bit. Peron Peron captures the essence of Buenos Aires in a way that may be a bit controversial, but the food is definitely worth the trip!

Great experience!! The food was delicious. The empanadas are fried and the best I've had here in…read moreBA. We had quite a few different meals all were recommended and delicious. Drinks were great. The bartender waited on us because there were a lot of us English speaking people, but he was kind of rude to our Spanish guide. Food was all very hearty and a little different than the meat and fritas everywhere else
