El Obrero Trattoria

Cantina El Obrero

A typical neighborhood trattoria, on its walls we see taped pictures of tango characters and soccer players. Cheap and abundant dishes (we recommend rabas and homemade pasta). Waiter Guille recommends dishes and serves desserts made by his mother. To leave with a full belly and happy heart!

To go from your vacation apartment rental in Buenos Aires take a taxi as this area is pretty dark and there are no many police officers.
