"A historic market offering fresh produce, top-quality meat, and street food kiosks with options like choripán sandwiches, meat empanadas, and lentil stew." - The MICHELIN Guide
"The Mercado de San Telmo opened in 1897 as one of the city’s first major markets to cater to European immigrants. Today, most stalls have shifted from serving the local community to attracting a tourist clientele. Despite feeling like Disneyland, the market is still worth a visit. Make your way to the Beba Cocina stall for classic home-style empanadas, fainá, and tortilla Española. Or pop over to neighboring stand Nuestra Parrilla for choripan (sausage sandwich), before washing down your meal at Nilson with a glass of wine." - Allie Lazar
"San Telmo Market is an enormous space with myriad food stalls and vendors selling handmade and antique goods. It offers a variety of cuisines and high-quality leather goods. Nearby Plaza Dorrego has shopping, galleries, and street artist shows." - Travel + Leisure Editors
