Mercado Buenos Aires

Tables sit at one end of the space, sharing the floor with an in-house butchery, bakery counters, and shelves of Argentine goods. The setting leans lively rather than romantic, with moderate noise, a kid-friendly atmosphere, and an entertaining view of locals dropping in.

Plates lean toward generous portions, from shareable fresh salads and sandwiches to steaks paired with Malbec. Diners routinely save room for dessert—such as the borracha pastry—or pick up cuts from the butcher counter on the way out.
