San Telmo and Caseros Boulevard
San Telmo is undoubtedly one of the Buenos Aires neighborhoods with the most history: its traditionally cobbled streets and the tango lyrics on all the advertisements invite you to be transported to times past where perhaps life moved at a more tranquil pace.
Despite being packed with people and tourists who come to the fair or market every weekend, the Classic of the city of Buenos Aires still manages to be calm and allow all its visitors to enjoy a delicious lunch or a fun dinner with drinks.
Particularly Boulevard Caseros, a few meters from Parque Lezama, in a small corner between San Telmo and Barracas, has become a small gastronomic hub with options for all tastes: from a new vegan classic to one of the most popular steakhouses, these are the best options on the boulevard.

Naples Bar is a must-see classic on Boulevard Caseros where gastronomy meets art in a completely harmonious way, accompanied by the best old-fashioned - in the best sense - and welcoming atmosphere.
The homemade pastas and pizzas do justice to Italian cuisine, and the signature cocktails perfectly complement any of the menu options. The best part is that the kitchen counter is open, allowing diners to watch the chefs kneading the ingredients by hand and creating truly unique dishes.

Located in the Edificio de los Ingleses, on Av. Caseros, is Caseros Restaurante, the undisputed pioneer of the area: the atmosphere is relaxed and perfectly complements all the options of 100% homemade dishes.
Among the menu's highlights are Argentine classics like a juicy rump steak or delicious grilled sweetbreads with plenty of lemon. However, the more gourmet options are equally appealing, such as brie with pears, grouper ceviche, or pork shoulder with cassava and banana.

Since its opening not too long ago, Hierbabuena has become one of the most iconic and popular restaurants in the vegan food scene of Buenos Aires: the natural and plant-based offering has won over thousands, even the most carnivorous.
All the menu items are spectacular and feature meticulous attention to detail, accompanied by the highest quality ingredients. Some customer favorites include the sweet potato with vegan cheddar, the tomato chutney, the tofu dumplings, and the turmeric waffles.
The percentage of vegetarians and vegans in Argentina continues to rise.
