One of my favorite restaurants in the neighborhood. The food is great, super chill and warm atmosphere, friendly service, and the best dessert you'll ever have (Food of the Gods!!). Great brunch too.

If you like steak, do yourself a favor and order their parrillada or braised short ribs (which they slow cook for 9 hours so you don't even need a knife). Trust me, I'm from Argentina.
