It had been many years since my initial visit to L'Orangerie. I had great memories of the art deco…read moreroom, with high ceilings and iron work. We arrived for a 2p lunch and the room was lovely. The menu consisted of a cold buffet and menu items of the day. My friends ordered the buffet and 2 of us ordered the 'Loma de Pesca'. Our fish order showed up 20 minutes later as sliced filets of Lomo de Res. The waiter was profusely apologetic and stated his mind confused the meat with the fish. 35 minutes later, still no fish, but complimentary glasses of champagne for the delay. At the 45 minute mark, the fish arrived. More apologies and we noted the sauce on the fish had already congealed, so it had been sitting awhile. Coffee with some complimentary dessert bites. Sadly, the elegance and service I remembered was very much lacking. As a 'bonus', 20 minutes after leaving L'Orangerie, someone charged $1200 USD on plane tickets to Chile on the CC I had just used at the restaurant.

Located inside the Alvear Palace Hotel, this restaurant and tea room is exquisite in its appointments and the food and service are equally well matched. Afternoon tea started with small pasty, followed by scones accompanied by clotted cream, preserves and creme anglaise. Then came a tiered tower with sandwiches and pastries, followed by the cart if larger pastries and a glass of sparkling wine. Of note, was the Alvear tea blend, which features citrus notes, almond and rose petals. Everything was This was a wonderful experience, and a highlight of this trip to Buenos Aires.

What a clean, pristine and serene place to have a spot of tea and a fresh fruit bowl…read more This was a nice stop during my hours of walking and exploring the city. They gave me a little timer (sand in an hour glass) to make sure I allowed my tea to steep long enough. The fruit salad was sweet and refreshing and the tea was aromatic and comforting. I do love a spot of tea in the afternoon.

First time we came it was in a Sunday and we had their brunch special which was a roast beef sandwich, french toast and a small salad. Amazing. Second time we came during the wk for a quick breakfast of muffin and coffee. Went again for lunch yesterday and had a steak sandwich w roasted potatoes. Their natural infused water are good as well. They have a great light menu when like me you have been in Buenos Aires eating tons of meat. Will miss this place when i go back to NYC, come in and enjoy their yummy coffee or a pastry and tea.
