Reviews Summary
Feirinha Market offers a lively, casual dining experience with a good selection of local Argentine and Brazilian foods like empanadas and grilled meats.

"It's a cool market to walk around, small, but with some nice products like olives, olive oil, wine, dulce de leche, etc."

"This is a crowded outdoor dining area and market. It's filled with people packed in plastic tables and chairs. You can pay in AGS, BRL, or USD. As others have stated, the restaurants and stores more or less sell the same items; grilled meats, cheese, olives, and alfajores. I had dinner here and enjoyed the flavorful Brazilian grilled meat and empanada. I do not recommend the red wine that was served COLD. The prices for food were steep, however. If you don't end up eating here, I'd still visit for the cultural experience."

"The area is full of good locally-run restaurants. I just want to the busiest one because they all seemed pretty similar. Decent food, and great to soak up the local vibe."
