Baires Rome, Italy

Baires (the Argentinean name for Buenos Aires) is made up of small, brightly colored rooms on the lower floor and a large, lively room upstairs. It is frequented by Hispano-Americans. The friendliness and warmth hits you as you enter the restaurant and you will find a menu that is typically South American. Amongst the Argentinean dishes, Empanadas al horno and Matambre are worthy of note but the meat dishes are the specialties of the house; Guiso criollo (beef stew), Pastel de papas y carne (meat and potato timbale) and Parillada (barbecued meats, served with a selection of salsas). There are homemade desserts such as Dulce de leche and Pastelito de dulce de membrillo (puff pastry filled with quince and fried). Considering its popularity, booking is advisable.
