The place calls your attention because it's so traditional looking and reminds me of the years that…read moreI lived here and Buenos Aires, where things were more chill and you could grab a coffee and spend the entire afternoon chatting with your friends over cigarettes and gossip. For American of course it's relatively cheap for local. It's not, but I got a huge cup of espresso coffee and a media luna with ham and cheese for half the price of a regular Starbucks back in the states. The place looks authentic and even the signs are taken from years gone by. I love this place and I would return here definitely

This place MAY NOT be open on a regular day and I got to experience why that might be the case in…read morethe future. I went to this place on Monday, May 23, 2022, completely looking forward to having a great breakfast, again, after visiting this location on the weekend. The sign on the door said we're closed because of lack of staff (in Spanish.) Today, on my visit, I was happy to find this location OPEN, but within 2 minutes I had to witness a worker by the name of Cynthia LOUDLY BERATING a young server (who served me on the weekend prior and provided stellar customer service.) I asked Cynthia if she was the owner of the establishment and she said "No." I went on to tell her in Spanish that I could not believe how she was yelling at the young service woman and that it was COMPLETELY uncalled for. Others in the restaurant were visibly shocked to hear Cynthia berate her coworker but no one said anything. I hope the owner of this wonderful establishment trains employees to treat each other with dignity and respect. The restaurant will be less likely to close if employees know they can come to work in a safe environment. The food is great and the rest of staff at this location in Almagro & Villa Crespo are WONDERFUL. Google translate; Es posible que este lugar NO va a estar abierto en un día normal y se la razón. Fui a este lugar el lunes 23 de mayo de 2022, con muchas ganas de tener un gran desayuno, nuevamente, después de visitar este lugar el fin de semana. El letrero en la puerta decía que estamos cerrados por falta de personal. Hoy, en mi visita, me alegré de encontrar esta ubicación ABIERTA, pero en 2 minutos tuve que oír a una trabajadora llamada Cynthia REPRENDIENDO EN FUERTE a un joven mesera (que me atendió el fin de semana anterior y brindó un servicio al cliente estelar) . Le pregunté a Cynthia si era la dueña del establecimiento y me dijo "No". Continué diciendo en español que no podía creer cómo le estaba gritando a la joven mujer del servicio y que estaba COMPLETAMENTE fuera de lugar. Otros en el restaurante estaban visiblemente sorprendidos de escuchar a Cynthia regañar a su compañero de trabajo, pero nadie dijo nada. Espero que el dueño de este maravilloso establecimiento capacite a los empleados para que se traten con dignidad y respeto. Es menos probable que el restaurante cierre si los empleados saben que pueden venir a trabajar en un entorno seguro. La comida es excelente y el resto del personal en este lugar en Almagro y Villa Crespo es MARAVILLOSO.
