The Room
Hierbabuena opened in San Telmo in 2012 — Argentina's senior chef-driven plant-forward casual-fine-dining destination. Thirteen years later the room is one of Buenos Aires's reliable alternatives to a city built on parrilla.
Eater Buenos Aires has held Hierbabuena on its top-San-Telmo rankings every year of operation.
The Food
The menu runs plant-forward — organic-vegetable-led preparations, fish and seafood as the secondary protein.
Wine programme is Argentine and natural. Cocktails are aperitivi-led.
