Touted these days as the only "real" Mexican restaurant in town, by them, and quite a few reviewers, this place has been on my list for a bit. Overall, some of the best Mexican food we've had in Buenos Aires, and worth the slightly higher prices.
Excellent cocktails, really good black bean plate with lots of cheese, though again, really salty tortilla chips. Amazing hot sauces, not over the top in heat, but just fantastic flavors. I want jars of these. To go. Oh yeah, nothing to go... which is my one negative for the place - they have no to go containers, so if you over-order, you're just out of luck. Cochinillo tacos - suckling pig, that is. Excellent. And, a very different version of an aguachile than I've ever had - it's always been green rather than red - but that aside, it was really tasty.
