I think, perhaps, a long time ago, some of them were actually quite something special, but they're, as we say in English, "resting on their laurels". I found the same thing at places like <a href="http://www.saltshaker.net/20051220/pizza-pasta-and-a-tree" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">El Cuartito</a>, <a href="http://www.saltshaker.net/20071220/the-not-so-wild-west" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">El Fortín</a>, and <a href="http://www.saltshaker.net/20070419/the-imperial-pizza-and-walking-it-off" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">El Imperio</a> which I hear raves about from locals - the places are imbued with history, but serve up average quality food, at best, yet somehow live on gleaming pedestals in the minds of their supporters.

Overestimated, unnecesarily covered with some kind of mystical aura. Quite nothing on the inside. For pizza, anyone in Buenos Aires should try "FILO" (San Martín 927) which serves real pizza in the real, DOC flavors. “Los Inmortales” is a pretty typical Buenos Aires thing.
