Our Story
From Buenos Aires to New York—Every Dish Has a Story
A Family Legacy of Restaurants
Ismael Alba, born into a family of restaurateurs, couldn’t find a place in New York that reflected the authentic flavors of Argentina—so he opened his own. At Buenos Aires Restaurant, Alba shares his passion for Argentine grilled meats, quality food at fair prices, and a warm, homey atmosphere. With exposed brick, Argentine décor, fine wines, and lively music, every detail evokes the true spirit of Buenos Aires.
What Makes Us Different
We offer high-quality food at fair prices in a warm, welcoming space. Our dining room is cozy, with brick walls, dark wood tables, and photos from the streets of Buenos Aires. There’s even a cowhide seat in the back and a full display of Argentine wines behind the bar. It feels like home, because that’s what it’s meant to be.
