Description:
DOWNTOWN. Take a trip to Buenos Aires at this Argentinean-style steakhouse, where the atmosphere springs to life with the seductive sounds of the tango, the aromas of wood-grilled beef, and an authentically rustic decor that's more Plaza de Mayo than Pioneer Square. For a traditional experience, regulars laud the parrillada (an Argentinean mixed grill of beef, chicken, and sausage); less adventuresome diners, however, are relieved to find a center-cut filet mignon and classic rib-eye on the menu as well. Ask for a table in the front room. |

FREMONT. Although El Camino is a favorite gathering spot for friends to test potent margaritas, it also serves wonderful Mexican cuisine. The menu isn't extensive, but selections are flavorful and well-prepared. Along with braised pork shoulder and chicken enchiladas with mole sauce, which have earned a faithful following, are seafood options like halibut tacos and salmon with tamarind. Steak tacos are also incredibly popular with patrons, who come to check each other out amid terra cotta tiles and wrought iron detailing. Don't go if you're looking for a quiet eatery and introductory chips and salsa; instead, go for authentic food and a festive populace. |
