Hipopótamo

We loved the decor and memorabilia. The place is very classy and cosy. A very cool vibe. When we arrived, no one greeted us and we had to wait a couple of minutes, then we were asked to change tables, and it was all quite confusing. It also took long to get a menu, and we decided only to have drinks, as we understood that it would take very long to get any hot food. Unfortunately, only 2 draft beers, and it took about 10 minutes to get served. Overall, the experience was a bit frustrating. The house vermut is amazing.

The best food /cost relation we had in 3 weeks in argentina. Awesome meet , cider and Vermouth from barrel. And easy , no flashy amazingly good experience

It's a nice little spot and definitely locking down those historic vibes. You get a feel of walking into the remnants of the past in this place. Old advertisements adorn the walls, old school setup which feels unchanged in generations. The food is a bit ordinary though. Ordered a couple of things, classic Argentine dishes were thought they would nail in an old school venue. But, unfortunately not. All a bit 'meh', to be honest. Yes, the menus are in Spanish but that adds to the vibe. Still, service is attentive and the buzz is a lovely feel. Worth a visit if only for nostalgia's sake 👍

AMAZING!! This was one of the best foods we had during our trip in Argentina! Food is amazing and not pretty touristic, so is better 😄

Traditional cafe, with a huge menu in Spanish (only) I know what cheese and ham is in Spanish, so that was exactly what I got. The place is charming, dated from 1909. But for me, it's a "one-timer"

Brazil and Defense, little corner of the mythical Buenos Aires, where 116 years of history with flavors concur. A milanga with fries, what still, after hours, I taste. In short, unforgettable and, by the way, repeatable culinary experience.

Very relaxing, ordered coffee but they brought croissants and orange juice at no additional cost. In Argentina people eat the croissants cold, I prefer hot.

Wide range of plates to choose from. good portions. Nice place to wind down have a beer/coffee. would definitely come back !

Love this place for its coffee and quintessential interior design--old world charm with a splash of Argentine commercial hipness.
