H.R. No. 315 is a resolution commemorating the 20th anniversary of Buenos Aires Café in Austin, which will be celebrated in 2025. The restaurant was founded in 2005 by chef Reina Morris, who aimed to share her Argentinian culinary heritage. Over the years, she has collaborated with her daughter, Paola Guerrero-Smith, who manages the restaurant's business operations and has introduced innovative projects such as the underground speakeasy bar, Milonga Room, and the Vinos del Sur initiative, which highlights boutique South American wines. Buenos Aires Café has become a beloved dining destination in Austin, known for its diverse grilled dishes, empanadas, and pastries, and has received accolades including recognition from Infatuation and multiple "Best of Austin" awards from the Austin Chronicle.
The resolution acknowledges the restaurant's significant impact on the local community and its reputation for excellence over the past two decades. It expresses the Texas House of Representatives' best wishes for the future of Buenos Aires Café and its staff. An official copy of the resolution will be prepared as a token of esteem from the House, reflecting the establishment's status as a local institution and its loyal customer base.
