Lonely Planet review for La Lechuza
A world away from its trendy Palermo Viejo neighbors, this classic joint holds on to tradition and offers a breath of fresh air from overpriced, over-hip restaurants. A gamut of funky art adorns the walls, from amateur owl paintings (lechuza means ‘owl’) to photos of Carlos Gardel and cheap cabaret posters. Food is good, with solid parrilla – the seso (brain)-ball appetizers aren’t half bad – but be sure to order soda in siphon bottles for the full old-time experience. A mostly male hangout, but women are perfectly welcome, also.
