A typical Buenos Aires restaurant with sub-par food…read more La Bolívar seems to stick out like a sore thumb in historic San Telmo. But indeed it is one of many unfortunately awkward newer restaurants that simpl can't compete with the historic cafes and bars of this amazing area. I came because I was looking to explore uncharted territory and the prices looked reasonable. Unfortunately, in this case, I got what I paid for. I ordered bife de chorizo, and it was the second-to-worst steak I've ever had in this city. One boon: The menu is fairly extensive and the prices are good, albeit for food that is not. If you want to know what restaurants are like like in San Telmo, go somewhere else. If you want to know what food is like in Buenos Aires, also go somewhere else. But if you simply need to fill your belly for a good price and can't travel more than 2 blocks from here, this will meet its intended function.

The place falls somewhere between a lunch counter and a take-out joint. There are a few small,…read moreround tables, and a small counter - all told for about 14 people - but the majority of business, at least while we were there, was definitely "to go". The menu, which changes every 15 days, is posted on the wall when you walk in. The day we were there, it consisted of three breakfast items, two sandwiches, a salad, a sort of bruschetta, and two side dishes. With five of us in attendance, we covered a bit of it. Slow cooked pork-shoulder, tomato-strawberry chutney, arugula, tomato, and radishes; homemade bread. Yum. 230 pesos. Bigger yum, by a slim edge, to the slow cooked flank steak with an orange-infused romesco sauce, lettuce, tomato, and red onion. Two of us ordered it, one of the sandwiches the beef was tender as could be (mine), the other it was a bit chewy and gristly. Still, based on my sandwich, if that one had come up back when I was looking for the city's best steak sandwich it would have been a contender - other than only being available for 15 days. 230 pesos. One of the breakfasts - initially surprising to the one who ordered it, because a much smaller plate, but then, it's a breakfast, not a lunch, and as a breakfast, it was more than ample, and the bowl is deeper than it at first seemed. Smoky sausages, smoked tomatoes, sourdough bread, and a fruit driven salsa criolla. 220 pesos. This might have been our favorite thing on the table - one of the sides, of charred vegetables with a spicy, mustard seed and peanut sauce. 100 pesos. But not far behind are their falsas fritas - with roasted andean potatoes, a sous vide egg, and mustard pickle. 100 pesos. All around, a great lunch, and a place that any of us would happily return to. Looking forward to future menus! Pretty reasonable lunch for the group at 430 pesos apiece including tip, or about $7 each.
