Honestly, some of the worst food I have ever had in my life! And no I'm not being dramatic. My partner and I had just arrived to Mendoza after a very long 16 hour flight. We were starving and noticed this place right next to our air bnb. There were a good amount of people there so we thought well hey this must be good if so many people are there! Boy were we wrong. We ordered a Caesar salad with chicken, shrimp cocktail, shrimp in some garlic/butter sauce, and a chicken soup, basically things that would be hard to mess up!
Ugh... the shrimp cocktail came in a big martini glass, the shrimp was warm, and was drenched in some kind of mayo cream sauce that was beyond revolting! I only had 2 shrimp... and the two that I had must not have been rinsed well because they had crunchy things in them... I assume sand!
The Caesar salad was terrible! Wilted lettuce that was warm, and chicken that was dry! We had asked for cheese on the side, but when we got the salad you could tell they forgot it wasn't supposed to have cheese and tried picking it off and putting it on another plate because the side of cheese we got had chunks of chicken in it at the salad had traces of cheese left... that's just lazy.
The shrimp with garlic sauce... I could barely eat one of them! The sauce was so disgusting and did not have a fresh garlic/butter taste! It was a brown sauce and the shrimp was over cooked in it... again with bits of sand in the shrimp! I had to swallow it down with my drink to even just finish the one piece! Probably the worst part of the meal... I almost spit it out in my napkin.
Now the chicken soup, you'd think that wouldn't be hard to make right!? Well the chicken was chewy, and the broth had ZERO flavor! In the soup was also peas, and what looked like carrots! It seemed like they just threw in whatever they had left in the kitchen. So tasteless!
The staff seemed unaware or they just didn't care at all. They saw we didn't eat our food but still had the nerve to ask if we wanted dessert! They never asked if there was something wrong with the food or anything!
The only thing worth finishing there was my Diet Coke. And that's literally all I finished.
I don't know why so many people go here? It looks cute and inviting outside but that's all they have going for themselves! There are so many great restaurants in and around Mendoza! And this place isn't cheap either. Well cheap for Mendoza standards.
Anyway, don't eat here! I'm hoping someone takes over for this place and puts some love and CARE into the quality! It's bad food, with people who really show they don't have any passion for it. read more
