Reviews
We loved the restaurant so much that we went back twice. The service has always been prompt and friendly. The food is delicious and affordable. Highly recommend the crab empanadas, centolla, tallarines de mariscos, canelones, meat lasagna, lengua a la vinegreta, black heka fish was buttery & flaky, and delicious desserts. When in Ushuaia, Tia Elvira is a must visit restaurant!!
Totally overrated food. I couldn’t even finish my dish it was very bland. The soup was yummy otherwise overpriced for what it is.
The hake and the crab empanadas were fantastic but unfortunately the mussels were over cooked. We got incredible service from everyone but our waitress Lara was a standout! A real sweetheart who made sure we enjoyed ourselves! Gracias para todos, Lara ❤️
Crab!!! Not inexpensive, definitely worth it. One medium crab is great for two for lunch. Give yourself an hour for a whole crab, and make reservations if you’re going at peak times.
