Lonely Planet review for Brasserie Petanque

This bright brasserie is a lively spot for Sunday brunch or a leisurely evening meal. Charismatic waiters pour complimentary aperitifs as you ponder steak tartare or roast chicken and peruse the short but wise list of wines by the glass. The prix fixe lunch menu is a steal.

    There was no brunch!

    kstreater recommends this,

    My boyfriend visited me from the States, and we were both craving a Sunday morning brunch. I Googled good brunch spots in Buenos Aires, because, come on, everyone craves a good brunch once in a while. When I found Brasserie Petanque's brunch reviews, I was stoked. However, upon arriving at the restaurant, we learned there was no brunch! I'm not sure if it was just the morning we were there, or if they the restaurant had gotten rid of the brunch menu, but I was a little disappointed.

    That being said, we stayed and ate lunch, and it was phenomenal. We were served a complimentary wine upon sitting down, and the food followed suit. Even though the lunch was more expensive than we had planned for, I can't say either of us were disappointed!

    I recommend strongly!

    What a find!

    Having eaten in some amazing restaurants, this is one of my favorites. With an exciting and ever changing menu that reflects the seasons and the best of local produce I’m yet to be disappointed by Petanque. This is the sort of place that’s made for long lazy lunches, and it’s option to pick two or three courses from a set menu is always great, even with fussy dining companions. The wine list is extensive, the staff attentive - but not overbearing and the décor beautiful without being stuffy. Whatever you do, don't miss a chance to visit this atmospheric restaurant.
