A Pizza Lover’s Walk Through Corrientes — Buenos Aires’ Flavor Boulevard
Join us on the ultimate Buenos Aires pizza tour and discover why locals and visitors alike call this the best pizza city outside of Italy. Our cultural tasting walk takes you down iconic Avenida Corrientes — the Broadway of Buenos Aires — where neon lights, historic theaters, and legendary pizzerias serve slices stacked with cheese, stories, and tradition. You'll try classic fugazzetta, crunchy fainá, and finish with a scoop of gelato at the world-famous Cadore. Come hungry — you’re in for a real slice of local life.
Why Corrientes Avenue Is the Soul of Buenos Aires
While many visitors come to Buenos Aires for tango, fútbol, or street art in Palermo, locals know the real magic happens on Corrientes Avenue. This legendary boulevard is the beating heart of the city’s nightlife, theater, and — of course — pizza. It's where the story of Buenos Aires comes alive, from neon-lit bookstores to century-old pizzerias.
Corrientes — la calle que nunca duerme — has long been immortalized in Argentine films, music, and radio. For artists and performers, having their name in lights here is like making it to Broadway.
In the 1950s and 60s, Corrientes pulsed with theatergoers, families, and late-night diners grabbing slices of pizza porteña. Watching a play, then eating pizza on Corrientes, wasn’t just a tradition — it became part of the city’s rhythm.
Join our Buenos Aires Pizza Tour and taste the legacy of this iconic street. Discover its most beloved traditional pizzas, hear the stories behind the slices, and walk through a cultural corridor that helped define the city’s identity.

Discover Buenos Aires' Most Historic Pizzerias on Avenida Corrientes
Join our Buenos Aires Pizza Tour for a guided culinary journey through Argentina's pizza capital. We'll taste iconic pizza porteña at four legendary pizzerias, each with its own chapter in the city's food history.
1
Palacio de la Pizza (1956) — Our first stop introduces you to pizza porteña with its signature spinach and béchamel pizza. This white pizza showcases the generous, cheese-forward style associated with Buenos Aires pizzerias.
2
Las Cuartetas (1932) — According to local legend, playwright Alberto Vacarezza wrote cuartetas, four-line verses, on napkins here. We’ll try its classic mozzarella pizza with fainá, a chickpea flatbread introduced by Ligurian immigrants.
3
Banchero (1967) — The Banchero family brought its Ligurian baking traditions to Buenos Aires and became closely associated with fugazzetta, the local cheese-and-onion specialty. This Corrientes location opened in 1967. Fugazzetta = fugazza (onion bread) + mozzarella — a purely local invention.
4
Los Inmortales (1952) — Originally a café, Los Inmortales changed direction after introducing Doña Rosa’s pizza a la piedra, which helped transform the business. The restaurant honors the artists and performers associated with Avenida Corrientes. We’ll try its thinner, crisper pizza a la piedra.
The tour concludes at Cadore, ranked among the world's top gelaterias, opened by the Olivotti family from the Italian town of Cadore near Venice. The shop opened in 1957.
