 | Buenos Aires El Desnivel Reviews | 1 - 10 of 19 |  |
El Desnivel is a great place. Again it’s a multi-visit place that is cheap and great. It has small tables and some of the walls aren’t in the best of repair. But that doesn’t stop the quick and good service and excellent food. I first came here with Sofia and her cousin with another VT’er I was just meeting. I had actually walked out of Cabana Las Lilas this night to come eat here.
Usually have the Bife de Lomo and fries with a large Quilmes. Imagine all this for $10 US. So nice. Leave a Comment Theme: LocalPrice: less than US$10 » Currency ConverterComparison: least expensiveAddress: Defensa 855Phone: 4300-9081

Desnivel is hugely popular, and there is no question as to why!! The steaks here are amazing, the prices are dirt-cheap and the atmosphere is vivacious and friendly. I've been here twice, both times with Sofia (sof76) and Thiago (dargains) and both times we leave stuffed and happy.
The deal here is, they don't take reservations, and the word of mouth is so strong that there is always a line. So, take my advice, call Sofia and have her make the arrangements, as they always seem to seat her right away. You'll walk in and to your left is the grill with slabs of meat on the wood chopping block. The chefs are very friendly and you can chat them up. The tables are close together and the dining room is noisy. Waiters talk loud, yell out orders to the bar and generally have fun. Order the Bife de Lomo, chorizo, Provoleta, and arugula salad. They also have wine specials, and both times it was the Norton Malbec DOC for $16pesos. Sweet!
Try not to cry when you see the bill. Unbelievably inexpensive for the food and service. Defiantly a top 3 beef experience.

This traditional style restaurant/parrilla is a favourite with both locals and tourist. It pays more attention to the quality food than to style, image and appearance. You get huge portions and quality, well-priced food.
I was told that there was there the best beef in Buenos Aires. The best piece is the "Bife de Lomo"... for the meat-lover, this is a must!
Of course the tender Bife de Lomo(tenderloin)
But also the empanadas, they are also the best...I ate so much all over the country that you can thrust me!!!!
And of course, don't forget the flan con dulce de leche ....if you are still hungry!!!! Leave a Comment Theme: BarbecuePrice: less than US$10 » Currency ConverterComparison: about averageAddress: Defensa 855Directions: San telmo

El Desnivel is one of Buenos Aires' best known restaurants and is popular with both portenos and tourists who flock here in huge numbers to sample the excellent steaks and the great atmosphere. You'll be greeted by big waiters who look like they eat steak for breakfast, lunch and dinner. It´s located in the heart of the historic district of San Telmo and the menu is typical Argentinian fare; you can order pretty much any part of the cow you fancy though we decided to be non-adventurous and chose the classic lomo (fillet) steak. There are cheaper restaurants in Buenos Aires and in San Telmo where you´ll get just as good a meal, but all the same El Desnivel is well worth a visit.

Real Local feel. Not many tourists, if any... Not particularly plush or pleasant to the eye, but it's the FOOD and LOCAL FEEL that attracts, and the PRICE that makes you want to return! Interesting neighborhood too!
The Sausage and the Mashed Potatoes and the BEEF!!!! Amazing, and I'm not much of a meat eater, too! Leave a Comment Theme: LocalPrice: less than US$10 » Currency ConverterComparison: less expensive than averageAddress: Defensa 855Phone: 4300-9081Directions: Capital area...

VT member Sofia and her mother both swore that this was the place for the best steak in Buenos Aires at any price. And still they indicated that the prices were economical. They indicated that it was popular with Argentinians. Sofia even wrote out a little note indicating that I had to order "bife de lomo" and for a starter a "provolete. The place was clearly popular with a typical Buenos Aires type of atmosphere.
The bife de lomo was tasty, lean, perfectly cooked and the most tender steak I have ever eaten. Although the tenderness was extraordinary, I still can not get over how tasty in was considering how lean.

Do you want a Delicous Tenderloin Steak the size of a car tire? This place is totally awesome and CHEAP! For $7.00 US you can get the biggest and best steak you've ever had with a 1/4 litre casa tinta and a very nice salad. And the quality is great. The owner is a huge guy, that just seems to love his job and he is really quite entertaining and outgoing. It's funny watching him interact with the patrons. He actually started dancing with some older Canadian women as they were leaving.

I must say the first time that I ate in this restaurant, it was a really good experience. The food was good and the staff was freindly so I had to take my friends back there on my second trip and thank goodness it was busy. While waiting in line (right beside the chef) he managed to drop food on the floor, pick it up and continue to cook with it... absolutely terrible and because of that, I will not go back there again!

El Desnivel was so much fun. We enjoyed a super lunch there - packed with people, lots of noise, great atmosphere and good food. I am still reeling at the memory of the man at the next table eating a huge steak at 3pm, then ordering another and finishing that too!!! Wonderful group of 4 old men at the next table, enjoying their parilla and wine and having the time of their lives.
Super chorizo, flan and coffee cortado. I became a coffe cortado addict in Argentina! Leave a Comment Theme: LocalPrice: less than US$10 » Currency ConverterComparison: about averageAddress: Defensa 855Phone: 4300-9081Directions: San Telmo
