Description
In the heart of Buenos Aires, facing Plaza San Martín, you will find the emblematic Paz Palace: one of the city's greatest architectural gems.
Built in the early 20th century by order of José C. Paz, founder of the newspaper La Prensa and Argentine ambassador to Paris from 1885 to 1893, it is the largest private residence in the country and one of the few residences in Buenos Aires to bear the title of Palace, given this designation due to the design and layout of its interior rooms. It was designed as a family home, with four floors, 140 rooms, and a total covered area of 12,000 m2.
A reflection of Beaux-Arts architecture, its architect was the prestigious Frenchman Louis-Marie Henri Sortais, and the construction was supervised by the prestigious Argentine architect and engineer Carlos Agote.
After being briefly inhabited by the Paz family, in 1938 it became the headquarters of the Military Circle, the National Military Library, and the National Weapons Museum.
With this option, you can enjoy a meal at the Croque Madame inside the Palace. Croque Madame restaurants are known for their presence in extraordinary locations such as museums, clubs, and historic buildings.
Enjoying Argentine cuisine surrounded by historic walls and the beautiful architecture and setting of this iconic location is an unparalleled experience and a must-do in Buenos Aires.
Lunch Menu:
Starter (choice of): Spinach and Swiss chard fritters with aioli, or Ossobuco empanada with yasgua sauce.

Dessert (choice of): Pancakes with dulce de leche, or one scoop of ice cream (vanilla or chocolate).
Beverages: Still or sparkling water, soft drink, lemonade, a glass of Malbec or Chardonnay wine, or Ramazzotti aperitif.

Cumpre o que promete
Vale a pena, com alguns ajustes. O lugar em Desfrute tem uma ambientação linda. O preço é honesto pelo que se recebe. A ambientação transporta, dá para ver o cuidado nos detalhes. Guia muito gentil, mas o grupo era grande e não dava conta de todos. Demoraram para trazer as bebidas no início. Recomendo mesmo assim.

Much better than I had imagined. Everything was handled digitally, nothing to print.

Muito melhor do que eu imaginava. Não é o mais barato, mas se justifica. Desfrute tem um clima muito especial. O atendimento foi atento sem ser invasivo.

Good, with ups and downs. The return time was kept to the minute. The live musicians take the evening up a level. We stayed on walking around Beaux after dinner. The only miss was no water available, especially in that heat. Worth it, knowing the above.

Altamente recomendable
Es de esas cosas que uno recuerda años después. La zona de Locación Emblemática de noche es otra cosa. La atención previa a la reserva fue muy clara con todas nuestras dudas. Los tragos incluidos eran bastante básicos. Lo recomiendo sin dudar.

Almost perfect
Came away with a good impression. The 3-course lunch (starter, main and dessert) was better than I expected. The Palace area at night is something else. The music was a bit loud for conversation.
