Restaurants Buenos Aires

El Tropezón

A revived Avenida Callao classic where puchero, an aperitif and theatre-night supper all belong.

Location
Avenida Callao 248, Buenos Aires

Our take

El Tropezón was founded in 1896 and reopened in 2017 after a long closure. Its puchero de gallina gives the menu a clear connection to older Buenos Aires cooking, while the Callao address keeps it handy for the theatre district. The history includes artists and writers, but the useful reason to visit is simpler: a traditional table for a meal before or after a show. Match the booking to your curtain time.
