This is where all of Milan's high society comes for dinners with good steaks and Argentian red wines. You could call it «informal chic»: the atmosphere of an authentic Argentinian home, perfected down to the family photographs hanging on the walls. Of course the waiters are all from Argentina!
The restaurant has three dining rooms, each with its own unique, charming atmosphere. This spot is well known for its steaks and soups, but there's a separate menu for vegetarians, if they happen to wander in by mistake.
We recommend: It's basically required to order steak and red wine. We also suggest the empanadas with chicken or cheese.
Cuisine: Argentinian
Atmosphere: «Informal Chic»
The crowd: Businessmen, couples, families, meat lovers.
Key info: Only open for dinner.
