Nestled in the elegant Recoleta neighborhood, Rufino offers a sophisticated take on traditional Argentine cuisine, located discreetly in the basement of the boutique Hotel Mío Buenos Aires. This stylish grill and restaurant elevates classic meat dishes through refined international techniques, masterfully crafted by Chef Jerónimo Bichi. The ambiance is one of understated luxury, featuring dim lighting, solid wood tables, leather seating adorned with furs, and gilded mirrors, creating an intimate and inviting atmosphere for discerning diners.
Beyond its exquisite premium cuts of Argentine beef, such as the succulent ribeye with chimichurri butter or the impressive one-kilo T-bone, Rufino also presents innovative contemporary creations like braised osso bucco and cheek with creamy corn. Vegetables are treated as protagonists, not mere accompaniments, reflecting a culinary philosophy that balances tradition with avant-garde touches. The extensive wine list, thoughtfully curated to showcase the diversity of Argentine winemaking, complements a selection of author cocktails, ensuring a complete and memorable dining experience for those seeking a true taste of Argentina's refined gastronomic scene.
