It's home to some of the cheaper empanadas I've had and the soups they have also look delicious (a meat soup and a corn soup). I came on one of my friend's last nights in Cordoba and we had a variety of empanadas. We all agreed the chicken one was our favorite. The flavor, with a little bit of spice, were perfect. The meat empanada was also good, but I would not recommend the corn and my friends said the ham & cheese was just ok.

The criollo picante (spicy Creole style beef) wasn't particularly spicy or Creole. Blame Argentinian palates. The arabe (beef, onion, tomato?, spices, served with a lemon) doesn't even look like an empanada, not to mention it's got a lot of appt inside that bready exterior. That one was more consistent in content so I judge it the champion. Then came the locro. It's a bit salty for my taste, and there was more fat than meat. By a landslide. There were also bones. So a minus for meat but a plus for that wonderful choclo. Also, the place is a pretty decent value to fill you up for under $10 with tip (even with a beverage). It's a good stop for a quick bite for any meal of the day.

It is a rustic looking place ideal for a meal with friends full of wine and caloric dishes, and crowned by a traditional dessert. If you are looking to vary from the typical asado this place offers the other face of local cuisine even if you want to avoid the meat which is so present in argentinian dishes.

Our hotel receptionist suggested Solar de Tejeda when I asked for nearby recommendations. Located…read morein the historic district near the Jesuit block and cathedral, it seems to be open all day for breakfast, lunch, merienda, and dinner. At 9:30 pm on a weeknight, we were able to walk right in and have our choice of tables. The decor is clean and simple - white walls, tile floors, and some framed photos of historic Cordoba sites. Our server was friendly and patient with our bad Spanish (the menu is partially in English, too). We ordered the parrillada mixed grill for two (AR$251), which was an amazing deal. It comes with your choice of green salad or fries. It ended up being THREE plates of sizzling-hot meat, including sausage, blood sausage, asado, pork, ribs, and more. An excellent way to try lots of things if you don't know what you like, and plenty of meat for even the biggest appetite! The atmosphere is low-key and casual, with John Meyer-type music playing in the background. It was mostly couples and singles, not so much big families or groups of young adults, so it was quiet and relaxed. A lovely place for dinner and an outstanding value for the parrillada!

The reason we gave 4 and not 5 stars was because the meat was a little overcooked. We asked for a warm pink center and we received a well-done steak. It was still very good. Lorenzo has one rule. If the restaurant serves bread they must serve butter. This restaurant does serve bread with a cream cheese spread. It was excellent however, it was not butter. We would recommend this place very highly

They have either pre determined menu which according to waiter can change from week to week 3 course - 85,000 ARG 11 course - 120,000 ARG (~$40 USD at time of review) I tried their 111 course and very satisfied.

I went to El Papagayo restaurant with my family on December 30, 2022. We went there for lunch…read more Since we were six, they had prepared us a big table on the second floor, in a private room. My brother and I had the tasting menu, the rest of my family had the executive menu. The tasting menu included around 10 dishes, and some snacks. The menu also included a drink: pomelo lemonade with fermented honey. The executive menu also included the pomelo drink and some snacks, but only three dishes. Staff was incredibly friendly and welcoming. They explained each dish. To go upstairs to our room we had to walk by the small kitchen. The kitchen was impeccable. All the kitchen staff also greeted us which felt welcoming as well. This is a small and intimate restaurant and I wouldn't recommend it for large groups (more than 8 people.) Everything in the restaurant works in harmony and seems to be designed for this space exclusively: the building, the furniture, the interior design, the utensils, the pottery where food is served, the glasses. Every dish was delicious, and I probably won't find the right words to describe to you how amazing the whole experience is. I have visited restaurants all around the world, this is now one of my favorites. If you enjoy good food, you need to visit this restaurant. If you like good design, you need to visit this restaurant. If you love architecture, you must visit this restaurant. Since Argentina's economy is not doing so well right now, this restaurant is very cheap for people coming from the US or other countries with a stronger currency. We paid less than $150 USD for all six of us. The pictures in this review were taken by my brother, Matias Luciani.

We were checking out lunch options inside the Mercado Norte and saw two pizza places side by side…read more They looked very similar, but we chose Pizzeria Arroyo Hermanos because it had a larger seating area and more drink choices. I think we made the right choice! If you've never had it, Argentine pizza is quite different from American pizza. The crust is so thick, it looks like a cake, but it's very fluffy and light, sort of like focaccia. Usually there's a lot of sauce on it, although you can ask for less sauce. The basic flavor seems to be cheese with olives, though we saw someone order a pizza with jamon. At this place, you order and pay first, then wait for a table to open up, and they'll call you to sit down. Normally you would receive a numbered ticket, but the lady took pity on us foreigners and called us by name instead. An 11-inch "pizza entero" is AR$75, and sodas are about AR$22, but you can also get individual slices. We were the only extranjeros there and got several curious looks, especially my blonde boyfriend! This definitely seemed like a family business and the owner/dad stopped by to say hello. He chatted with us about where we were from and how we were liking Argentina (and our pizza). We really felt welcome here, even though I'm sure we stuck out in the crowd! If you're looking for a quick, affordable and/or vegetarian lunch in the Mercado, this pizzeria is a friendly, fast option. Recommended!
