El Cuartito
A historic family-run pizzeria opened in 1934, featuring a lively atmosphere with walls covered in football and boxing memorabilia.
Located at Talcahuano 937, El Cuartito opened in 1934 and grew from a small shop into a local classic purely through word of mouth. Its walls are packed with football and boxing memorabilia. Recommended options include the fugazzeta (onion and cheese pizza) and the Napolitana (tomato, garlic, and mozzarella). Most sources state that reservations are not accepted and seating is first-come, first-served; it often gets packed after 8:00 PM, so arriving early is advised. According to the official website, it is open Tuesday to Sunday from 12:30–00:30, and closed on Mondays. In 2026, a slice of fugazzeta is around 5,500 ARS, and a large pizza is around 41,000 ARS.
