La Cabrera is nothing like a tourist trap when you compare it to Las Lilas. Not saying it hasnt gotten somewhat more Touristy.... but its still a far cry from Las Lilas. Even La Brigada, which is getting close to Las Lilas is still, in my view, a far better experience than anything that Puerto Madero can offer. Aside from the prices, my beef with Las Lilas is that they try to emulate the North American Steakhouse thing... and that is anything but authentic. Then again, if you are on a corporate expense account and just want upscale, then maybe Las Lilas is a good option for you. In this case, I would suggest the Grill at the Marriott Plaza as a better alternative.... but, to each his own.
