FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla. -- Argentino Las Olas, a popular Argentine restaurant in Fort Lauderdale, has become a hub for soccer enthusiasts and fans of Lionel Messi. The restaurant, known for its empanadas and Argentine cuisine, pays homage to Messi and his homeland with a large poster of the soccer star outside its front door.
During Argentina's World Cup victory, the restaurant was bustling with patrons, showcasing the clear connection between the success of the national team and Argentine establishments like Argentino Las Olas. However, the excitement was expected to dwindle post-World Cup, but that changed when Messi joined Inter Miami CF, located just a short distance away.
