Fogón Asado Buenos Aires

Fogón Asado sits on Uriarte 1423, a ten-minute walk from the crowds of Plaza Serrano. It holds the no. 35 spot on the 2024 World's 101 Best Steak Restaurants list.

The room runs smart, but the kitchen ignores the performative showmanship found elsewhere in the city. While the neighborhood is saturated with loud grills aimed at tourists, this place treats the asado as a quiet technical exercise. You go here for the discipline of the grill, not the chaos of the surrounding bars. Choosing it over the nearby grills is a preference for substance over spectacle; the meat is better, and the pacing is slower, allowing you to actually taste the difference between the cuts.
