La Criolla - San Miguel de Tucumán

My wife and I were particularly impressed by the tamale. we live in mexico, and know something about fooling. the Tucuman version was very similar to Mexican, but only different from interesting. the mais flour was very fluffy and damp...with an excellent pulled pork center: highly recommended. the empanadas were also very good. the steaks were great. Maybe not the best we had in Argentina, but perfectly delicious. (a four-star steak in Argentina is a five-star steak anywhere else. friendly and attentive service. the desert was a bit disappointing. we waited a LONG time until the pancake came out of the kitchen. When it was finally, it turned out that it was a badly made crepe filled with cold dulce de leche and the restaurant did not serve a coffee that is quite strange. so rather a sad end of an otherwise great meal.

One of my favorite restaurants in the city, I always order “cabrito a la parrilla”, I strongly recommend it. also empanadas and fool. a place to come back.

Unfortunately we only found this restaurant yesterday. very nice eating, coupled with good friendly service. my wife had a very nice steak and I had slightly floured hekefilets. worth a visit. not far from the main square.

Great service, even for us who spoke a difficult time with the waiter. he was very patient and understanding. eating was really good. we had the sorrentino pasta, which was much better than il postino, for half price. the tamale was moist, with soft horny skin and pork. the bark fillet was cooked well so it came a bit hard. but it was still edible. most meat and duck dishes were in the middle to low hundreds, which is not bad at all. they have decent wein for cheap trips. we had a bottle of malbec for 90 pesos!

My wife and I were particularly impressed by the tamale. We live in Mexico, and so know a thing about tamales. The Tucuman version was very similar to Mexican ones, but just different enough to be interesting. The corn meal was very fluffy and moist...with an outstanding pulled pork center: highly recommended. The empanadas were also very very good. The steaks were great ... perhaps not the very best we 've had in Argentina, but perfectly delicious. (A four-star steak in Argentina is a five-star steak anywhere else. Friendly and attentive service. The desert was a bit of a disappointment ... we waited a LONG time for the pancake to come out of the kitchen. When it finally did, it turned out to be a poorly-made crepe stuffed with cold dulce de leche. And the restaurant doesn 't serve coffee, which is pretty weird. So rather a sad end to an otherwise great meal.
