A
El Brigadier
Half a block from Plaza 25 de Mayo, this refurbished restaurant offers an elegant interior and tasty cuts of meat and river fish that win out, despite a few strange quirks in the service department.

El Quincho de Chiquito
This legendary place is a local institution, and the place to go to eat river fish. It’s on the costanera some 6km north of downtown. There are few frills to the service, and no choice about the menu: four or five courses of delicious surubí, sábalo or pacú are brought out to you. You won’t leave hungry. Drinks are extra but cheap. Think AR$10 each way in a taxi (staff will call you one to take you back) or catch bus 16 from any point on the waterfront road.

B
Bodegas del Castelar
Run by the upmarket hotel of the same name, this spot appeals for its terrace on the stately Plaza 25 de Mayo – a fine spot for a sunset drink – as well as for its service and pricy but high-quality dishes, which include a couple of fondues (AR$50 to AR$70 for two people) and a copious platter of cheeses and meats (AR$52). Cheaper snacks are also available and there’s plenty of wine to try.

Círculo Italiano
Part of the Italian social club, Círculo Italiano prepares good, moderately priced lunch specials (AR$25 to AR$30 Monday to Friday) and tasty pasta. Come for the ritzy atmosphere, the waiters in linen jackets, the complimentary pâté or the extensive wine list. Stay for the classic rock on the sound system.

Las Delicias
Delightfully old-fashioned and elegant, with a great shady terrace, this bakery offers some of the most sinful pastries and cakes imaginable; it also does breakfast, afternoon tea and sandwiches. Service is traditional and correct.

E
Restaurante España
This hotel restaurant has a huge menu that covers the range of fish (both locally caught and from the sea), steaks, pasta, chicken and crepes, with a few Spanish dishes thrown in to justify the name. The wine list is a winner, too.

Merengo
Since 1851 little Merengo has been making some of the town’s best alfajores santafesinos (Santa Fe’s sugar-crusted version of the country’s favorite snack). There’s another branch on Av San Martín.

La Victoria
Right in the middle of La Recoleta nightlife district and still pumping at 3am, the Victoria is the place to come before, after or in between bars to have a few drinks and load up on good pizza and snacks.

La Estaca
A cheap, traditional, hearty parrilla, with outdoor seating under a high awning. If you're not a vegetarian, it's mighty difficult to walk past when you can smell the grill going.

Club Social Sirio Libanés
In a rather aristocratic dining room, attentive waiters serve well-prepared Middle Eastern–style dishes; it’s a pleasingly unusual place to eat. You enter down the end of a passageway.
