About Cantina Argentina

A dinner at Cantina Argentina lands exactly where it should: generous, unhurried and unmistakably Argentine. The skirt steak and the Neapolitan Milanese are the plates people keep coming back for, and the empanadas — available in enough varieties to take away — are considered the best in the city by more than a few regulars. Provoleta rounds out a table well. End the night with the chocotorta or, if the licor de dulce de leche is on, order that instead — locals who tried it called it a revelation. In a port city where Argentine cooking is easy to get wrong, this one gets the flavour right.
