Excelent restaurant to share unforgettable moments. High quality seafood, good wine and great desserts at a resonable price. In the heart of Monserrat neighborhood, you can eat in this lovely place. You can book in advance. Clean and neat place. The waitress was very kind. Excellent!

AMAZING!!! Must eat here. Seafood is delicious, wine is delicious! Wow!!!

We went there for lunch. The first impression was bad, as the waitress seemed rude and unwelcoming. We stayed anyway as we heard good things about the food. The stuffed mushrooms were amazing. The rice with seafood was also very tasty. The spaghetti with seafood was bland and looked messy.

The food was very good the portions were large so you can definitely share or take home afterwards. The pasta sauces were homemade. The grilled octopus was delicious a little small in portion size. The flan with dulce de leche for dessert was the perfect way to end the evening. The customer service was not great but not bad. There was no small chat just very matter of fact. However he was quick and professional.

We started with a picada, which consisted of a delectable assortment of uncured cold cuts, cheese, and olives. It was absolutely delicious. Following that, we decided to order a rice dish with seafood, and it turned out to be an excellent choice. To accompany our meal, we opted for draft beer and sidra, both of which were enjoyable. Overall, this place is highly recommended for anyone looking to have a fantastic dinner experience in Buenos Aires.
