Las Lilas is fully vertically integrated: they breed, raise, slaughter, age and cook the beef. Maybe the only steakhouse in the world which also owns a ranch and slaughterhouse. This does result in their beef being different -- and I would say better -- than can be found elsewhere in EZE, not to mention completely different from US beef. Prices are circa 30% of US first run steakhouses, so "still cheaper and much better" is an understatement, if anything.
