“ Chorizo on a bun is a new experience for me and my life is forever changed. Burgers wish they could be this tasty and flavourful. Great combo of flavours for each type of chorizo. Fries were just ok, could have been hotter or fresher. Nice combo deals with drinks. ”
“ Centrally located in Palermo. More of a gourmet take on the original choripan sandwich. The corn salad is very good. Takes credit card. Prices are higher than the rest of Buenos Aires, as any other place in the Palermo neighborhood. ”
“ Best choripan I've tried in Argentina. I had the smoked sausage and it was really good! There's a printed menu both in English and Spanish. You can sit outside if it's not too hot. My experience was really good and I hope I get to visit again soon. ”
“ Very good choripan! The Nice neighbourhood of Palermo contributes to the vibes! Street food in a hipster place is sweet! To try but pricy for what you get. It’s a fast food/ street food that you get on plastic tray. Can we please avoid to put tips on the paying machine? ”
“ Great food and service! Very knowledgeable about food allergies, and has gluten free bread. When we asked about fries they used new oil in the fryer for us to eliminate cross contamination. It was so good we came back a second time. ”
“ Place and neighborhood is good. Seating inside snd outside are available. Good quality of meat for the chorizo they use for choripan. I just think it’s a little pricey. Otherwise, worth the visit to try this Argentina classic. ”
“ Good spot for a classic local dish done right. I went for the traditional choripán and paired it with a Patagonia beer, great combo. (Small personal gripe: not a huge fan of the Stella Artois pint glasses, but that’s just me) My partner tried the beef choripán. Definitely not traditional, more like a burger, but good all the same! We visited on a quiet weekday afternoon. The place had a relaxed vibe with good music playing. Overall, an enjoyable experience. Would happily come back. ”
“ Super tasty spot! I’ve tried both the smoked and the classic choripán — the smoked is definitely the winner. The ensalada de choclo is alright, but I’d go for the fries instead — better flavour and a more generous portion. The choripán itself is on the smaller side, but it’s absolutely delicious. Highly recommend getting it with the garlic mayo and a Patagonia beer. I’ve been before and I’ll definitely be back! ”
