Mark’s Deli & Coffee House

Location: El Salvador 4701, Palermo
Phone: 11-4832-6744

Type of Food: Delicatessen sandwiches and pastries
Avg. Price: $$
($ = budget, $$$ = expensive)

LPBA Recomendation: Mark’s Deli & Coffee House is a Buenos Aires haven for sandwich lovers. If you’re an expat, this trendy cafe will satisfy your craving for home with all its classic American lunch spot qualities. The sandwiches are large and in-charge, the iced coffee and frozen lemonades deliciously refreshing and the pastries massive. Ingredients like grilled chicken, guacamole, roasted red peppers, bacon and blue cheese are reason enough to check it out.

I would definitely not recommend going to Mark’s during peak lunch hours – the crowds can be overwhelming and the service suffers. However, if you go before or after lunch times, you shouldn’t have a problem finding a table outside to enjoy your massive sandwich in the hip Plaza Armenia atmosphere.

La Cabrera

Location: Cabrera 5099, Palermo
Phone: 11-4831-7002

Type of food: Parrilla (Argentine BBQ)
Avg. Price: $$
($ = budget, $$$ = expensive)

LPBA Recommendation: La Cabrera is on everyone’s list for a great Argentine steak. You’ll certainly enjoy the bife de chorizo or the lomo, but the real highlight is all the delicious side dishes that will accompany your steak. Don’t miss out on this carne treat, but plan to show up early or late as the line can get ridiculous.

Muu Lecheria

Location: Armenia 1810, Palermo Viejo
Phone: 11-4362-6959

Type of food: Diner
Avg. Price: $
($ = budget, $$$ = expensive)

LPBA Recommendation: An old-fashioned style diner, Muu Lecheria serves up amazing milkshakes, towering burgers and delicious sandwiches. In the mood for breakfast? They do that, too. French toast, waffles… you name it.

I’ve been known to have eyes bigger than my stomach, so when I ordered quite a bit of food for myself, the waitress politely informed me that I ordered enough food for an army. “It’s ok. I’m hungry,” I told her. And for the record, I cleaned my plate. The chicken Caesar sandwich… perfection on a plate, I tell you. By the end of my first visit, the waitress and I were like old buddies and I was already planning my next trip to Muu.

White leather booths and checkered tablecloths complete the diner ambiance, and at night old movies like Grease are projected onto the restaurant wall. It may not be the most Argentine restaurant in the city, but that won’t stop me from coming back. In fact, in case you forget what country you’re in, the burgers are adorned with little toothpicks waving Argentine flags. The best thing about the place is that it doesn’t feel forced or cheesy. It’s good food in a fun, laid back and (for lack of better word) cute atmosphere.

Bar 6

Location: Armenia 1676, Palermo
Phone: 11-4833-6807

Type of food: International cuisine
Avg. Price: $$
($ = budget, $$$ = expensive)

LPBA Recommendation: Bar 6, in the heart of trendy Palermo Soho is as trendy as its surroundings. The food is decent, the space is beautiful. If you’re out shopping around Plaza Serrano and want to stop for a nice lunch, this is a good spot. Be sure to order off of the specials of the day menu, as those are the real gems of this restaurant.

Cabernet Restaurant

Location: Jorge L. Borges 1757, Palermo
Phone: 11-4831-3071

Type of food: Fine Dining
Avg. Price: $$$
($ = budget, $$$ = expensive)

LPBA Recommendation: Located near Plaza Serrano, Cabernet was once the only gourmet restaurant in Palermo Soho. The owners had to think twice about whether or not the location would hurt the business. They chose wisely! Chefs Joaquín Alberdi and Luis Coluccio have created an original, tasty menu, full of gourmet dishes. Some items include a spinach salad with poached eggs and salmon, filet mignon with a cabernet reduction and chicken breast stuffed with salmon and wrapped in thin slices of carrot. If you have the budget, this is a place you don’t want to miss. When the weather permits, the patio area is the place to relax with a nice glass of wine from the extensive list. Bottles can be purchased from the same owners across the street.

Krishna

Location: Malabia 1833, Palermo
Phone: 11-4833-4618

Type of food: Indian
Avg. Price: $$
($ = budget, $$$ = expensive)

LPBA Recommendation: Krishna is a very cool Indian and vegetarian* restaurant located in front of Plaza Armenia. With great décor, Krishna is a great place to hang out and savor rich flavors other than pizza and empanadas. The food is ideal for lunch and the prices are reasonable. Order the lemonade with an appetizer and soak up the atmosphere.

Te Mataré Ramirez

Location: Gorriti 5054, Palermo
Phone: 11-4831-9156

Type of food: Aphrodesiac cuisine
Avg. Price: $$$
($ = budget, $$$ = expensive)

LPBA Recommendation: The menu at the Te Mataré Ramirez is full of deliciously seductive foods with equally tantalizing flavors. The presentation of food gracefully complements the sensual restaurant interior and vibe. One wall is lined with erotic paintings, the other with huge mirrors. The cocktail selection is vast and the service prompt. Check out the restaurant’s website for live show schedules and a preview of the menu.

Fabrica de Taco

Location: Gorritti 5062, Palermo
Phone: 4832 0875

Type of food: Mexican
Avg. Price: $$
($ = budget, $$$ = expensive)

LPBA Recommendation: The most legit tacos in town. Tacos de Pastor, buckets of Coronas, all sorts of variations on the taco and baked potato. The Mexican wrestler design speaks for itself. * Don’t miss the hidden back patio for fresh air and magaritas at night.

Magdalena’s Party

Location: Thames 1795, Palermo
Phone: 11.4833.9127

Type of food: American, International
Avg. Price: $$
($ = budget, $$$ = expensive)

LPBA Recommendation: Relatively new to the Palermo scene Magdalena’s Party is bringing a lot of missed flavors and dishes to the Buenos Aires cuisine scene. Bloody Mary’s, real Canadian maple syrup, California burritos and many more random surprises. Drinks specials and a party that spills into the street especially on Thursdays and Fridays.
