Rio Alba would be one recommendation from me.

Also, there is a parilla with a local flavor located across the street from a local mall where you can get an excellent steak dinner for appoximately US$8.00, including tax, tip and helado for dessert, although the portions are substantially smaller but still delicious and satisfying.

I forget the name of the restaurant, but its name is not apparent between the name on the outside of the restaurant and the name Gaucho100K recommended.

This place is definitely not touristy, and nobody speaks English.

That did not stop me, however. I ate well despite knowing little Spanish.

There are other places, but none where you can earn or use points (if that is important to you) and certainly no other place where you can stay inside the park overnight other than camping out.
