Alfonsina

Córdoba


In a rambling colonial town house at the historic heart of Córdoba, this bric-a-brac-filled restaurant-bar has a huge menu of favorites – pastas, pizzas, locro (a spicy meat, beans and maize stew), empanadas and steaks – and some regional mainstays such as cabrito (goat) stew. Though Alfonsina has a couple of other locations, this one wins on ambience. There's live music some nights.
