Thai restaurants in Buenos Aires

  1. A

    Lotus Neo Thai

    Buenos Aires’ little Chinatown is the barrio to be in when you feel like trading your steak knife for a pair of palitos (chopsticks). Style-conscious types opt to dine at contemporary eateries like Lotus Neo Thai, a Las Cañitas institution that recently made the move to Barrio Chino. Kick back with the heady, mint-infused house cocktail at this blissful Thai eatery where painted lotus flowers climb the walls and guests recline on floor cushions. The duck curry and pad thai, when requested, pack heat.

  2. B

    Empire Thai

    The sultry lighting and sumptuous decor are your first clue that this place isn’t a traditional ethnic diner; the second is when you’re still hungry after finishing your noodles. Never mind – the scrumptious peanut satay and the moody New York ambiance draw a cool crowd, and flavors like coconut and lemongrass give your palate a rest from all the steak you’ve probably consumed elsewhere.
