Güerrín
Pizzería Güerrín
A famous pizzeria on Corrientes Avenue founded in 1932, where thick-crust mozzarella paired with fainá is the classic local way to eat.
Founded in 1932 by two Genoese immigrants, Güerrín still stands at its original location at Av. Corrientes 1368 in the theater district, and has been designated a cultural heritage site. The pizzas here feature a thick crust and a generous layer of cheese; the classic way to enjoy it is a slice of mozzarella pizza topped with a slice of fainá (chickpea pancake). Reservations are not accepted, and lines can be very long during peak hours and weekends, though you can stand and eat slices at the front counter. A whole mozzarella pizza costs around 29,900 ARS in 2026. It is located very close to the Uruguay subway station.
