This is my favorite Door Dash spot. The desserts are all delicious (especiallythe cake), the pizza is cheesy and has a great crust. I love the empanadas too. I cant wait to try more variations.
From the moment you step into their charming space (loved the patio! . Mate!! The cheese jam and spinach empanadas were flaky and flavorful, a perfect start to the meal For the main course, the mixed grill was an absolute feast! The meats were cooked to well and so delicious specially the ribs The salads were fresh and vibrant and they had a great selection of drinks . The interior has a lovely, inviting atmosphere (image and the outdoor seating area is fantastic The service was also top-notch - friendly and attentive. Overall, a fantastic dining experience! Highly recommend! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Checked out the reviews, and popped in. Visiting, and wanted something quick. Empanadas are a sure starter dish, great flavor and taste. The corn empanada tasted much better then I assumed great! Drinks on point, and the chicken with veggies very flavorful. You must add the sauce with everything lol
I went here for the first time, and I have to say, when the weather is right that patio is fantastic. I would probably go back just for the outdoor seating. That said, we were underwhelmed with the food. We ordered 3 empanadas which were good but lacked flavor. We also ordered the ribeye with fries and a mixta salad, the sides were really good but the steak was way overcooked. We ordered med rare and it was well done throughout most of the steak with no pink at all. Also, it was supposed to be a 14 oz steak, I really don’t think it was, the steak was very thin. Overall, I would give the food 3/5 stars.
I had a fantastic experience at Buenos Aires Grill & Cafe. The staff was amazing, especially KP, who made me feel welcomed and kept the atmosphere light and fun. Sitting at the bar, you could tell the whole team enjoyed working together, which made the experience even better. For food, I started with three empanadas: pulled flank, ham and cheese, and caprese. Each one was delicious, light, and packed with flavor, but the pulled flank with caramelized onions was the clear standout for me. After seeing a plate of cheesy bruschetta go by, I couldn’t resist ordering it, and I’m glad I did. It was perfectly cheesy, fresh, and satisfying. To finish off, I had the salmon, served with chimichurri sauce, which was an excellent way to round out the meal. The salmon was cooked beautifully, and the sauce paired with it perfectly. From the warm staff to the authentic flavors, Buenos Aires Grill & Cafe is a must-visit in Little Rock. I’ll definitely be back!
Best Argentine restaurant I’ve been to in the US! I highly recommend the empañadas and skirt steak served with delicious chimichurri sauce and fries. The service was top notch (thank you Paulina!) and the atmosphere was relaxed. Really good prices for the portion size and quality. I will definitely be eating here again next time I’m in Little Rock!
Came out for my Birthday wanted to try something new. 1st time here and I can say the service was nice and the food was good! Can't wait to come again. I enjoyed myself on the patio eating my birthday dinner.
Delicious! Very happy to find this place! Vegetables were all excellent, sauce is amazing, Pollo / Chicken Breast could've been cut a little better (difficult in a hotel) but the taste is amazing and it was cooked properly, all that matters. Will definitely order from them again when I'm back in town!
