Take a rest and enjoy this boulevard area full of nice restaurants (cuban, argentinian, italian). The famous Las Lillas is located there. It is not cheap but worthy!! More

We drove through Puerto Madero on a city bus tour and then returned for dinner. I don't recall the name of the restaurant, but I can say that walking around and across the woman's bridge at night was a lovely experience. It is like being in a different city, it is so unlike anywhere else in Buenos Aires. The architecture... More

I liked the atmosphere since we were there on Christmas Day 2011. Festive, not very crowded, beautiful day! The bridge, Puente de la Mujer (Women's Bridge), by Spanish architect Santiago Calatrava is indeed a gem and well designed. More

Puente de la Mujer is located in Puerto Madero, I recommend going during the night and then heading to one of Puerto Madero's restaurants or bars. Easy access from either the buses or subte (subway) More

Perhaps I missed the good spots, but I found Puerto Madero to be a bit overrated. The bridge was unique and beautiful; however the restaurants didn't live up to the hype. The steak dinners I had there were both mediocre and expensive. I prefer Palermo. An Argentine friend of mine told me that they cook steak well-done by default, so... More

We decided to walk aorund during the day. There were only a few choices for lunch as most of the restaurants only open for dinner.
