"Good typical vegetarian buffet"   My Rating
21 VeganSoapD ude	Posted on: Monday, September 28, 2009
	Review: This place is very nice and a great option in Buenos Aires. Very similar to other vegetarian restaurants in town like it, this places food seems to be a little fresher than some of the others. We enjoyed our meal here!   Pros: Good, fresh food * * Cons: Not 100% Vegan * *

"Good selection"   My Rating
15 beerzuki	Posted on: Monday, June 29, 2009
	Review: The staff were friendly and the selection was great: a mix of western/asian hot meals plus salads, sushi and desserts.. A big space that got pretty full on the Sunday lunchtime I was there. Would happily go back! Prices seem to have gone up since earlier reviews, but still good value! I am not vegan so can't vouch so much for that, but a lot looked vegan but quite a few dishes looked creamy...not sure of the origin of that. Takeaway was good value too.   Pros: selection * value * friendly Cons: drinks not incl * *

	Review: But there is a lot of stuff that isn't vegan, and you have to ask with patience, because they never know imedeatly. But the food is great and you can eat a lot for a really good price.   Pros: price * options * location Cons: * *

"cheap eats"   My Rating
15 neekole	Posted on: Friday, April 10, 2009
	Review: the staff went through the hot line of the buffet and pointed out everything that was without animal products (vegan) for us, very helpful. more than half the line was vegan-friendly. there were a number of faux meat dishes, sushi, faux fish, spring rolls, deep fried mashed sweet potatos! etc. i didn't get much from the cold line, just some seaweed salad that was tasty. the restaurant has a philosophy of not wasting food, so don't take more than you can eat on each plate (but it is all you can eat, so you can go back as many times as you want). i had lunch for 15 pesos. plus 5 pesos for water.   Pros: cheap * helpful staff * vegan options Cons: * *

"Palermo Buffet"   My Rating
4 jacksonbli ss	Posted on: Monday, July 28, 2008
	Review: There are so many entries at this vegetarian Chinese buffet in Palermo, and most of the food is really tasty: three types of seitan stirfry, egg rolls, fried rice, tiny soy milanesas, flan, crepes, these little puffballs that taste like stuffing, carrot and veggie soufflé, rice pudding. The clientele is also fascinating: hardcore Christians, punk rockers, goths, vegetarians, fastidious tourists, Porteñas on a diet, families. Between lots of food and droves of people, you can't go wrong. One bit of advice: come for lunch, it's cheaper. Only 12 pesos for a Wednesday lunch but 20 pesos for a Friday dinner.   Pros: Variety * Taste * Cost Cons: Lots of Fried Stuff * Lots of Fried Stuff * Lots of Fried Stuff

"Nothing to write home for, but good for a big bite"   My Rating
3 leoluca escobar	Posted on: Tuesday, January 08, 2008
	Review: Mmm... buffets. Not so chic, yes. But fulfilling. There's the buffet phenomenon of trying to beat your opponents to the food. People get ferocious around the seafood section. Los Sabios fortunately doesn't have a seafood section, as it's an entirely vegetarian/vegan friendly buffet. There are two sections, hot and cold. The hot section has a variety of Chinese style dishes. Lots of imitation meats fried with vegetables, kebobs of corn and bell peppers, fried rice and noodles, imitation fish and so on. In the cold section you'll find a selection of desserts and fruits that are done the Chinese way. That is flan with caramel that is made from tapioca and rice pudding that's made with jasmine rice. It takes a bit getting used to, but the flan made of tapioca started to grow on me. Lastly, located in the back of the restaurant is the dumpling stand where you can get fresh dumplings heated for you (You can also get crushed ice desserts here.). I tried them out and they were sour and came with "latin' toppings like salsa and cheese. Not my cup of tea. It's sometimes hard to defrenciate your feelings for a place when you are vegetarian. You can get trapped in the feeling of appreciation when you find a place that caters to you. Los Sabios has decent food, but it's for sure nothing to write home about. For hungry vegetarians wanting to grab a big bite, this is your joint. For photos and the full review please go to: http://www.leolucaescobar.com/thesweets   Pros: Inexpensive * variety * gluten free/vegan friendly Cons: somewhat lackluster * hit or miss *

"More on Los Sabios"   My Rating
2 lauraXsynt hesis	Posted on: Saturday, December 30, 2006
	Review: The address is Ave. Corrientes 3733 and the nearest subte station is Medrano. The restaurant is about 30 blocks from the centre, but worth going to if one is in the neighbourhood. Staff are helpful with letting you know what has ´leche´or ´huevo´, so just ask. The buffet is very big and all you can eat for very cheap to someone coming from Europe. Opening hours are 12-3 and 8-midnight or later. It can get pretty busy at peak times like after 10pm. If staff don´t want you to sit in the upstairs bit, it´s because they suspect you are one of those customers who brings containers to take home loads of food from the buffet!   Pros: * * Cons: Food is a bit greasy * *
