Reviews
Very high-quality and unobtrusive service. Unlike many places in BA, it's quite quiet. The food is excellent. A great place for a date ;)
We’ve been traveling for 4 months and this meal was for sure one of the restaurant highlights of our trip. 🪑 setting - the space is modern but cozy and warm. Brick walls and glass, green plants, atmospheric lighting, a sleek bar. I know that this is formally part of a hotel/apartment suites setup, but it doesn’t look or feel like that at all. It could be any hot and happening restaurant in the hippest parts of town. It is relatively small with perhaps no more than 12 tables and it’s quiet. It could be a great place to bring a date. 🧑🍳 service - excellent. We had a super friendly server who helped us in English as soon as he realized we don’t speak Spanish. Made nice wine recommendations. Service was very attentive. 🥗 food - lovely! My partner and I both had a three course meal and really enjoyed each of the dishes. I liked the falafel which I tried after reading other reviewers say it was good. Falafel can be hit or miss; many times I try it somewhere it’s dry and dull, but here it was perfectly fried yet juicy. The gnocchi was fluffy and the desserts just so good. My partner said that the steak was done fantastically which is not something he experiences often. So everything was top notch. Perhaps my only suggestion would be to serve the burrata at room temperature. It was still quite cold and therefore also still too firm when cut open. 🍹 drinks - extensive wine list but also interesting cocktails. 🌱 dietary needs - a couple of nice vegetarian options and the menu also indicates which items are gluten free. 🚽 facilities - have not used this so I can’t comment. 💰 value - the offer on the three course meal is excellent value: 55.000 which includes a non-alcoholic drink and a coffee (as of February 2026) Do not hesitate to go here for a very good experience.
Prepare to be delighted! This was by far our best culinary experience in one month in Argentina. We took the dip trio to start and then followed with the shrimp scampi and the Pulpo español grillado. Everything was delicious. We can't wait to be back tomorrow!
