I've been to several Jewish restaurants, and grew up on the classics, but I've never been to a…read morerestaurant like Mishiguene, elevated Jewish cuisine. Ranked in the Top 50 restaurants in Latin America, it's well deserving in my opinion. We shared two apps the sweet potato and charred onion hummus and beef. Everything was delicious , service was excellent, ambiance was spectacular. Highly recommend to anyone who is looking for something different.

I wanted to try this restaurant ever since I knew I was going to be in Buenos Aires. I missed the…read morepopup that Chef Tomás Kalika had at Intesect by Lexus in 2019 where my son-in-law was a sous chef. This was my opportunity. I seized it. I secured a reservation for my wife and I and was not disappointed. Situated in a neighborhood not unlike Surfside in Miami, this so-called Mediterranean restaurant exceeded all my expectations. From the greeting we received upon entering; to our server, Mariano, explaining portion sizes as well as the many dishes in which my wife could order or that the sous chef could alter due to allergies; to the suggested wines that may accompany our order. I had my heart set on BABA GANOUSH appetizer and PASTRAMIED RACK OF BEEF- their signature dish; the Baba Ganoush had tomato in it so that was out for Edna but another eggplant dish was substituted and it was just what the doctor ordered. The Pastrami preparation I opted for was not available but the PASTRAMI WELLINGTON: Beef Short Rib Pastrami, Mushroom Duxelles, Swiss Chard and Dijon Mustard; Served with Date Demi-Glace and Assorted Peppercorns, I eventually ordered was to die for. Edna opted for the fish of the day which was MULLET in a fine sauce made with Pastis. For dessert, I wanted something different and we got it: PUMPKIN, BLUE CHEESE AND MISO consisting of nixtamalized Pumpkin, Blue Cheese Mousse and Pumpkin Tofee with Miso. it was a small portion but it was delicious. A few words about the ambiance: the inside was beautifully decorated; the lamps hung in a low glow to accentuate the dark wood walls; the Michelin certificates proudly hung in a discreet spot; an outdoor section had been assembled to accommodate the throngs of diners as the interior is on the small size. Geez, it was only a Monday night!
