“ Really nice vibe with a warm decor. I went a couple of times, with a starter main dessert and drink They do a really nice warm loaf of bread with the starter too. Their suggested meat dish main is massive, I want to say something like 18oz or maybe a bit bigger. Really lovely desserts and the presentation of all the food is fantastic. At the end is a free shot of a fruity alcoholic thing I can’t remember the name of The staff are really cool and friendly too. The only con I would say is there aren’t many non alcoholic drink options but if you love wine then you’re in the perfect place. ”
“ We had a fantastic dinner here to celebrate our wedding anniversary. The staff were friendly and efficient and the food was great. A special shout out to the trout dish, which I ordered based on other reviews. It was incredible! Probably the best fish dish I’ve ever had. ”
“ We had dinner here two times in our four nights in El Chalten. The food is great and it is clear that the chef takes pride in the presentation. The staff are attentive and cheerful. The end of dinner shots of their “secret” liquor are a fun addition. ”
“ After an amazing first meal and service we went back a few nights later. The waiters remembered us, and even remembered the wine we liked and drank. We had another great meal, with excellent service, and they even made us a custom dessert. Gracias! ”
“ Yes, the trout dish. Definitely. The steak not so much. But beware of the little bones though. Complimentary alcohol at the end. Beautifully decorated rustic place. ”
