Minga, Latin American restaurant in Palermo Soho, Buenos Aires, Argentina.
Minga is a Latin American restaurant and takeaway in the Palermo Soho neighborhood of Buenos Aires, offering indoor seating and outdoor tables. The restaurant faces Plaza Armenia and serves a range of dishes drawn from across the region.
Palermo Soho grew into one of Buenos Aires's most popular dining neighborhoods in the early 2000s, when restaurants and bars began gathering around the area's small plazas. Minga opened as part of that wave, joining a stretch of streets that had shifted from residential to restaurant-heavy over just a few years.
Minga sits across from Plaza Armenia, one of the liveliest squares in Palermo Soho, and the outdoor tables draw people who like to eat while watching the foot traffic around the plaza. The cooking draws on recipes shared across Latin America, giving the menu a familiar feel for locals and visitors alike.
The Plaza Armenia is the easiest landmark to use when finding the restaurant, as it sits directly across from the square on one of Palermo Soho's main streets. The neighborhood gets busy in the evenings, so arriving early or booking ahead helps avoid a long wait.
Minga runs a full sit-down restaurant and a takeaway service from the same address, which is relatively uncommon for a Latin American restaurant in this part of Palermo Soho. This means the same dishes can be ordered to eat at a table on the plaza or taken away on foot.
