“ One of the best restaurants in buda side-budapest, Hungary! Good water ( yes, yes), relaxing atmosphere and the perfect, professional service, made it unforgettable experience. Meat lovers ,it's a must. ”
“ We have been coming regularly to Barrio for a while now because it simply never disappoints. Amazing food with strong South American touch (great steaks, sea food and the best empanadas in the city) very attentive and friendly service, cosy ambient. The drinks are remarkable as well. For summer they have a wonderfully designed garden and when the weather turns bad, the winter garden is the best choice: like being in a own home of the owner, who is a long-time well-respected local gastronome: himself and his family are working in the restaurant as well, which gives it another personal touch. ”

“ A wonderful high quality restaurant, a true gem in Budapest, serving mostly South American style dishes, but also seafood (tasty fresh oysters BTW) and more everyday meals like Neapolitan style pizza. Amazing selection of high quality wines predominantly from Argentina and Chile reflecting the fascination of the owner with the continent. (What is easy to detect by the signed football jerseys of Maradona and Messi and other items on the walls of the place.) Good atmosphere and impeccable service. A restaurant worth visiting for gourmets living in the hood, but also for those that are to drive a bit for a great culinary experience. ”
“ A real South American gem!!!!! The restaurant is very cozy with prefect lighting, friendly staff and great food. What else can you ask for? We had Peruvian Ceviche, Argentine Empanadas and Argentine RIBEYE Everything was prefect. Will go there again for sure and can't wait to try out the outdoor garden area during summer. ”
“ I recently dined at this restaurant and was blown away by their Argentine ribeye steak and cheesecake! As a meat lover, I appreciated their focus on meat-based dishes, and they certainly delivered with their succulent and flavorful ribeye steak. Cooked to perfection, each bite was juicy and tender. Their cheesecake was equally delightful – creamy, rich, and perfectly balanced. It was evident that both the steak and cheesecake were made with high-quality ingredients, and the freshness of the food shone through in every bite. Aside from the fantastic food, the restaurant's ambiance was top-notch. The interior was beautifully decorated, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere. Additionally, the presence of a backyard garden added a charming touch to the dining experience. I highly recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for delicious food, impeccable service, and a welcoming atmosphere！ ”
