MARTi barra

"Recommended by Michelin Guide - "Chef Germán Martitegui, who is well known thanks to his role as a judge on MasterChef, has given his cuisine a complete makeover, but one which is the complete opposite to the traditional Argentinian taste for meat. This is showcased via his “We do not kill animals” maxim and a 100% vegetarian menu (with vegan options) in this restaurant in the prosperous Recoleta district of the city. This bright and relaxed eatery occupying the former interior garden of a house is always full and comes as a pleasant surprise thanks to its casual atmosphere and discreet street access – the outside gives no inkling of what’s inside! Once you’ve rung the bell, you are escorted to a striking dining room with large picture windows and plenty of vegetation. There are no tables here; instead, you eat at the central kitchen counter, enabling you to see how dishes are grouped by ingredients (humita, corn crisp and cumin meringue; chori, bao and magic; puff pastry and peach). Marti also grows its own wild mushrooms here.""

"If you've grown weary of steak and pasta, Martí offers a plant-based respite without sacrificing flavor or creativity. Run by celebrity chef Germán Martitegui, the space is bright and airy; the menu focuses on what's seasonal and local. A unique way to experience Argentina's culinary bounty through a new lens."

"If you've been in BA five minutes you already know the vegetable game is a bit...lackluster. That can NOT be said here! MARTi takes steak lover out of the best of us. Amazingly delicious meal that will make you forget about the steak culture and have you begging for a vegan mushroom butter. "
