You want risotto with truffle essence? Fuhgeddaboutit. This is a red-sauce joint. The food is not fancy-schmancy northern Italian, or authentically Italian at all.

Walk into Rincon Argentino with any doubts about the restaurant’s philosophy and they’ll quickly melt away. The reason? The gigantic fire pit in the middle of the dining room that’s usually covered with dripping racks of sausage, beef, and sometimes a whole pig. Argentine cuisine is all about the carne, baby.
