I recently dined at Balvanera and it was an absolute delight! 🌟 We started with the empanadas, which were perfectly flaky and bursting with flavor. For the main course, the skirt steak was cooked to perfection - so tender and juicy!

The atmosphere is cozy and trendy, making it great for a casual dinner or special occasion. The cherry on top was the homemade pistachio ice cream; it was simply divine! 🍨

Despite a busy server station nearby, the attentive service made up for it. Can't wait to return for another memorable meal!
