Located in the heart of the historic Exchange District, this Argentinean pizzeria pays homage to its namesake avenue in Buenos Aires with everything from art to wine and books. On the menu at this bustling eatery are scrumptious empanadas and signature pizzas. Pies are loaded with creative toppings–try the Manitoba variety topped with pickerel, bacon, and goat cheese. Don’t miss trying a traditional empanada stuffed with tender beef, olives, and roasted red pepper.
