Buenos Aires Pizzeria is just a couple of blocks from Coors Field, right in the shadow of the ballpark. In that land of ten dollar beers and nine dollar hot dogs, its relaxed environment is a welcome change. A two-pronged operation, consisting of the main restaurant and a neighboring take out window, Buenos Aires serves pizzas, incredible empanadas, and delicious sandwiches. Really, the empanadas are the main event. A traditionally beloved South-American delicacy, they’re made from a flaky pastry painstakingly shaped around your choice of fillings, like spinach and cheese, chicken pesto, or bacon and fig, they are by far the best thing on the menu. As far as the pizza is concerned, there are a great many interesting options for your pie, such as pear, prosciutto, mint, or heart of palm and blue cheese. The pizza isn’t bad, but it really pales when compared with the rest of the menu. The empanadas are transcendent, and you’ll feel the urge to eat them to the point of excess. And for less than three bucks a piece, you really can’t go wrong. (Aaron Urist)
