Alito

Mar del Plata


With indoor and outdoor seating across from the waterfront near Plaza Colón, Alito is popular for its central location and wide ranging, if not particularly imaginative menu. There are lunch specials, a full wine list and a special list of postres helados (ice-cream desserts).
