Fodor's Expert Review Bandoneón

Every detail here evokes the streets of Buenos Aires, right down to the cobblestone floors, the dramatic tango music, and the walls adorned with antique bandoneons (concertinas). Although the star offering is steak, the broad menu also features starters like smoked marlin and charcoal-grilled provolone cheese and mains that include pasta, fish, and chicken dishes. The sizzling rib eye is extremely tender (though health-conscious diners should request a leaner cut), and if you have room, order the brandy-soaked cake roll with caramel filling for dessert.   With 160 seats, this place can be a bit chaotic; reservations are recommended Thursday through Saturday.
