Roque | Bsas4u

It is friendship month in Argentina. To celebrate with you, every day we will share the Bsas4u team’s insider tips to our favourite places and attractions in Buenos Aires. Each of these places has a real porteña soul, and we always recommend them to our friends coming to visit Buenos Aires. These are the places we hold dear to our hearts, just for you, so take note!

Whose tips: Estefania Rincon — Daytours4u Sales Manager, from Cali, Colơmbia What she likes: Estefania has rhythm in her bones and she loves to dance salsa. The town of Cali, where she grew up, is the world capital of salsa. She loves to travel, discover new places, and have a good time over a good meal. But what she loves above all is sport - she plays soccer, cycling and a practice cross fit at least twice a week.

Estefi recommends: Roque

Roque is exactly the kind of parrilla we like: excellent food and cheap! Located in the Boedo neighborhood, away from the tourist circuits, you will discover a real porteña atmosphere. The decor is somewhat tired, with antique furniture and not necessarily in a good condition, and yet this is what we love coming here, no fuss, great wine, bife chorizo ​​(an Argentina cut of steak) with prices that are a nice surprise and a more than pleasant overall experience. Moreover, their wine selection is very good, and they will help you to choose according to your preferences. However one small drawback is that the service can be a bit slow, so we recommend you arrive before 21:30. Note that credit cards are not accepted.
