This restaurant is very expensive so you would expect the food to be excellent. However, overall the food was very disappointing. We ordered the provoleta, mollejas (sweet breads), bife de chorizo, and the zapallo (squash). The flavors of the provoleta were very good but the cheese was dry as a bone and cold inside. The sauce with the mollejas was delicious but the mollejas were heavily smoked and it completely ruined the flavor and texture. The squash was also extremely dry and unpleasant. I have had 5 steaks over the past two weeks in Buenos Aires and by far this was the worst. The fat on the outside was the only tasty part. The meat itself was flavorless and very chewy. Super dissapointing. In terms of service, all staff were very friendly. However, I was asked at the beginning of service if I had a food allergry and I said yes, gluten. Shortly after I was given an amuse bouche. I waited and asked the waitress if it was gluten free and she said no. So they took it away and said they would be back with a gf option. She never brought me one. Then they tried to serve me regular bread. I had to ask again and was told that I couldn't eat it so they would bring me gf bread. They did after I asked. At the end of service I was once again served complementary desserts with gluten. You would think there would be much better attention to allergies in such an expensive restaurant. On a positive note, the restaurant is absolutely beautiful. Too bad the food doesn't match.
