Santa Rita — Spanish & Argentine gastronomy

Spanish & Argentine gastronomy

Santa Rita

The taste of Spain and Argentina in the Casco

Santa Rita

Santa Rita unites two powerful culinary traditions: the Spanish tapa and the Argentine grill. Imported product, slow fire, and a wine list that crosses the Atlantic.

From Iberian chorizo tortilla to Duero beef cheeks, Santa Rita's kitchen defends the sobremesa: plates to share, wine for conversation, and a tavern atmosphere with Casco Viejo soul.

Signature tapas

Croquetas, Iberian tortilla, Cantabrian anchovies and reinvented classics.

Argentine grill

Imported aged cuts, cooked over embers to their exact point.

Transatlantic cellar

Spanish and Argentine labels chosen to pair with every dish.

Copa Stopover
