The verdict
The Lomito Beef Sandwich at Buenos Aires Café & Bar is medium-rare steak, cheese, grilled onions, peppers, and chimichurri, all on a baguette. Every ingredient was perfectly seasoned, cooked, and stacked, so that each bite made Case impatient for the next. He honestly can't wait to go back.
