I hope if east 6th street gets eaten by condo-building culture vultures this place gets a spot to exist. This is the best option for non-chain, authentic vibes in the area. Food so good after I could only make this face (see picture)

This was our first time at Buenos Aires Café, and it did NOT disappoint. We let our server know and she gave us some excellent recommendations. So, when I was having trouble deciding between the gnocchi and the Shepherd’s Pie, she explained the differences. She highlighted the gnocchi as being adventurously flavorful and the Shepherd’s Pie as being more of a “comfort food” type of vibe. I went with the gnocchi and it was very flavorful. It also wasn’t too filling, so that allowed us to get dessert. The Quatros Leches was phenomenal! We loved the whole vibe of the place, and our server was very attentive and accurate in her recommendations. Even though we don’t get to go to Austin very much, we’ll be sure that Buenos Aires Café is a stop we make.

This is hands down one of the best food spots I’ve been to in Austin. We had a server named John and he really made it an experience for my family and I to remember. Their food is unique, fresh, and authentic. Highly recommend!

Beef was chewy and dry. And every vegetable is an add on, not sure why it’s advertised as if it comes with everything and fries.

Phenomenal food! Our new favorite Austin restaurant! It’s one of the few classic hidden gems in Austin that hasn’t completely been overrun and overhyped. It’s delicious and understated. We will be coming back as soon as possible.

Excellent food and impeccable service from John. Wonderful experience all around!
The menu clearly stated that happy hour lasted until 6:30, so we placed our order at 6:15 after taking some time to decide. However, we were informed that happy hour actually ended at 6:00 and they refused to honor the discount, even though it was still listed on the menu. If there’s a mistake in the menu, it’s not the customer’s responsibility. I suggest updating or reprinting the menu to avoid further confusion.

After a long work day on a business trip in Austin, I wanted a nice meal. I sought out this quaint Argentinian restaurant, and had a great experience.
I had the milanase plato with side salad and mashed potatoes, along with a cold quilmes beer. It was a simple meal, but so delicious- made better by the cozy atmosphere of the café.
I was appreciative of them serving me somewhat late at night, and providing such warm and welcoming customer service. Really enjoyed talking with my server, Alex, and the owner Reina- loved hearing about how she made her restaurant dreams by honing her skills, and staying true to her vision.
There was a lot of love put into this meal, and the alfajore cookie/dessert was a delicious was way to cap it off.
Thank you! I hope to return again someday with my family.

Spectacular baked empanadas. Not cheap, but they were my favorite I have had out side of Argentina.

This place is expensive and has little food and the worst thing is that it does not have an Argentine atmosphere, especially those who serve you.
