"Have a strong Argentine coffee or a helping of churros con chocolate while you peruse the photos and art at Tortoni."

Lonely Planet

"An obligatory stop for any visitor to town: order a couple of churros (fried pastry dough) with your hot chocolate and forget about the inflated prices."

Elizabeth and Dale Abroad

"Alfajores are a wonderful sugary treat similar to what we would call a moon pie in the United States. Only Alfajores are so much better! They are made of a few layers of spongy cake, filled with doce de leite and covered in chocolate."

AFAR Magazine

"I ordered a cappuccino and a chocolate alfajor--which to my surprise was the best one I tried in Buenos Aires."

Matt Chesterton

"Admire the columns, boiserie and stained glass skylights over hot chocolate and churros."

Jennifer Che

"I ordered one of their signature dishes, the Churros. Everything was good. Most importantly, it was the combination of the grand space, the storied location, and the delicious authentic food that made the experience very special."

Andi Perullo

"Before we were even presented with a menu we both knew what we wanted: churros con chocolate. I have had them all over the world and my favorite are from Café Tortoni."

Drew Rivetty

"These blonde baked confections look like delicate cookie sandwiches. A thick layer of dulce de leche is spread between two cornstarch-based butter cookies and finished with a dusting of coconut flakes around the edge. It’s a crumbly combination with a light sweetness that melts in your mouth and pairs well with coffee."

Renan Furukawa

"Miryam chose an alfajor of the house (ARS 45), made with dulce de leche and stuffed with chocolate, wonderful!"

Ana Astri-O'Reilly

"Tortoni is famous for its draft cider and the chocolate con churros, a steaming cup of dense hot chocolate with churros, crispy outside and chewy inside."
