About this spot
In the historic San Telmo district, Corriendo la Vaca serves massive, flame-grilled churrascos that arrive at your table dripping with garlic butter and chimichurri.

- Save room for the house-made empanadas filled with seasoned ground beef and olives before the main meat course arrives.
- Ask for extra chimichurri sauce if you want to dip your bread or balance the richness of the fatty cuts.
