La Casona del Molino
A folk music peña set in an 18th-century colonial mansion, where local musicians play every night, served with empanadas and sangria.
Housed in an 18th-century colonial mansion, this is a classic place to experience Salta's peña culture: local musicians gather in its rooms every night to play Argentine folk music. The menu features Creole home cooking, and the meat empanadas, locro and sangria are well liked. Located at Luis Burela 1, at the end of Caseros Street, west of the city center; it is about 10 minutes by taxi from downtown. The later in the evening, the livelier it gets, but weekends are busy, so arriving early is advised.
