Frequently Asked Questions about Food at Ezeiza
Where can I try good Argentine food?
According to user experience, La Cabrera al Paso (pre-boarding, gate 11) is the most outstanding and consistently praised option for its ribeye and milanesa sandwiches, offering an authentic, high-quality local experience.
Are the prices very high?
Yes, as is usual in airports, the prices are significantly higher than outside. The main complaint from travelers is not just the cost, but that the quality of the products often does not justify the price, especially at places like Tostado or La Vaca.
Are there good options if I travel in the early morning?
Yes, several establishments operate 24 hours, including Havanna, Starbucks, McDonald's, and Brioche Dorée. This ensures that there will always be an option available, although the quality and level of service may decrease during off-peak hours.

The quality of the coffee is inconsistent. Brands like Havanna and Tostado receive mixed reviews, from good to "burnt" or of poor quality. Brioche Dorée usually has a more stable and positive rating in this regard.

Traveler's Handbook: Critical Points to Watch
Uncertain Quality
This is the biggest problem. You can have an excellent meal or a very bad one in the same place. Establishments like Tostado are a clear example, with users praising their avocado toast and others denouncing salads with old ingredients or almost empty sandwiches.
Service is a Lottery
Customer service is extremely variable. While at La Cabrera al Paso the service is a strong point, in places like Pizza Zen or La Vaca users report rude, listless staff or staff that directly ignores customers.
The Broken Promise of the Menu
Some establishments do not live up to what is expected of them. It is reported that Outback often does not have its signature dish (the fried onion) and that at Havanna the most popular frappes on the menu may be missing. It is wise to ask about availability before ordering.
Hygiene and Food Condition
Although not widespread, there are worrying reports about products in poor condition, such as alfajores from Open 25hs, or dirty table areas, as in the Pizza Zen area.
The Most Talked-About Places by Travelers
La Cabrera al Paso
Pros and Cons According to Users:
Pros: It is consistently praised for the excellent quality of its food, especially the ribeye sandwich. The service is its other great pillar, with multiple mentions of waiters like Carlos and Milton for their kindness and professionalism.
Cons: Some users have pointed out that the service can be slow when the staff is distracted, although this is a minority complaint.
User Experience:
It is perceived as the gastronomic gem of the airport. Travelers recommend it as a mandatory stop to enjoy a last great Argentine meal before departing, highlighting that the quality justifies the price.
Havanna
Pros and Cons According to Users:
Pros: The brand is an attraction in itself to try the classic alfajores. Some employees, like Melina and Lucas, are highlighted for providing exceptional service that significantly improves the experience.
Cons: The quality is very irregular. The coffee is rated as "mediocre," the frappes as "pure ice," and the glasses are often dirty. The service can be extremely slow, with waits of up to 20 minutes at the cash register with only one person ahead.
User Experience:
It is a risky option. While you may find a friendly employee and enjoy a good alfajor, it is equally likely that you will face a bad product and poor service. The experience largely depends on luck.
Tostado
Pros and Cons According to Users:
Pros: The avocado toast is a consistently praised product. The afternoon shift staff receives good reviews for their friendliness and efficiency.
Cons: It is one of the establishments with the most complaints about the price/quality ratio. The sandwiches are described as "scarce" and "very small for what they cost," the salads with old ingredients, and the croissants "inedible."
User Experience:
The general perception is negative. Travelers feel that the prices are excessive for the poor quality and the size of the portions offered, recommending it only as a last resort.
