Welcome to La Continental, a beloved gem nestled in the heart of Buenos Aires at Talcahuano 1034. This culinary hotspot captures the essence of Argentinian comfort food, offering a vibrant atmosphere perfect for a quick bite or a leisurely afternoon snack.
Renowned for its delightful pizzas and tempting empanadas, La Continental has earned a reputation not only for taste but also for speed.

As noted by Tin Salias, it’s a "great and typical place" that embodies the quick-serve dining culture that Buenos Aires is famous for.
The menu showcases some of the best expressions of local flavors. With prices like $3 USD for two empanadas and a beer, as enjoyed by Eryka Wilson, it's difficult to argue against its value for money. The casual ambiance complements the food perfectly, allowing guests to kick back and savor their meals without any fuss. The affordability factor does not skimp on quality; reviewers have commented on the delicious, crunchy, and soft nature of their pizzas, with just the right amount of cheese—not too heavy, but fulfilling.
However, as with any dining experience, perspectives can vary.
