El Cardón

A traditional Tucumán restaurant a few blocks south of the centre, specialising in regional dishes — empanadas, locro, humita, tamales, and grilled meats from the Andean north. The dining room is plain and welcoming, with red tablecloths and folk music in the background some evenings.

A good first stop for anyone new to northwestern Argentine cooking. Order the empanadas as a starter even if you plan to order something else.
