Mar Del Plata Restaurants

  1. Amigos del Mar

    Apart from the hearty 'buenas noches' greeting you on arrival, this Japanese restaurant is the real deal. Bamboo screens, jangly background music and a sushi sashimi platter that's worth the trek 1.5km west (or around Arg$15 taxi ride) on its own.

  2. Bocitas

    This place can't be topped when it comes to cheap pizza; it's low on atmosphere, but you can't beat the opening hours, and the sidewalk tables are perfect for people-watching.
