Salta
A neighborhood grill with fluorescent lighting and a phalanx of spinning ceiling fans. Generous quantities, including an impressive array of free nibbles, cheap house wine and decent, though not amazing, cuts of meat make it worth considering. Half-portions (70% of the full-portion price) are more than enough for one.
Don't confuse it with the more upmarket restaurant with the same name diagonally opposite.
