The beef is royalty

This prestigious restaurant's cuisine is unique because Don Julio's beef is unlike any other. According to The World's 50 Best, every ounce of meat comes from grass-fed Aberdeen Angus and Hereford cattle. The cattle are raised outside Buenos Aires in the beautiful countryside. Steak School notes that Angus meat is known for its high level of marbling, making the beef succulent and juicy. Hereford cattle are known for their beautiful marbling, protein, vitamin B, and iron content (via Hereford Beef).

The beef at Don Julio is stored in a climate-controlled aging chamber for 21 days as the beef matures. Once aged, the meat is passed to the head of the kitchen and charcuterie specialist Guido Tassi for inspection, then onto the patron's plate. The result is a delicious, top-quality cut of steak.

CN Traveler says all steak cuts are grilled in your presence by master griller Pepe Sotelo. From grass-fed short ribs to rib-eye and skirt steak, there's a cut for everyone. Each steak is served with a salad or fries, keeping it simple, with all focus on the elite beef.
