As others have stated, we had our best meal EVER by Chef Roux. My husband and I are still talking about the tuna on the half shell with almond creme and citrus. The food is creative and exquisite. The views are breathtaking-- our favorite vineyard experience. Let me tell you what makes this vineyard THE destination you can't miss-- they truly make you feel like family. It's a smaller vineyard owned by an Argentinian patriarch and run by his adult daughters. We met the family and they are so warm and truly care about their art. At the end of our visit, our rental car wouldn't start. It was an unfortunate situation-- especially considering we don't speak fluent Spanish. They called Hertz for us, the owner of the vineyard and one of his more mechanically inclined men spent about a half hour looking at our car. They also invited us back in the vineyard for wine and tea while we waited for a ride. Talk about INCREDIBLE hospitality! We visited multiple vineyards on our trip and felt like this was the best view, food and experience BEFORE the car issue. The way we were treated after our car broke down was the definition of incredible hospitality.

Where sharing is caring comes alive!…read more Located in the heart of the city, Fuente y Fonda is an amazing local gem that everyone should try. All of their entree portions are meant for sharing. They have appetizers as well, we opted for the entrees. We had the churrasco which they graciously prepped in 2 different temperatures, it comes with the most delicious roasted potatoes and veggies. One of their staples is the Sheppard pie as well which is also very good. Alll of the entrees come with (2) desserts, we went with their standard flan with dulce de leche and it was divine. Staff was very attentive and the aesthetic of the restaurant is so unique, very vintage meets homey cuisine. Definitely a great place to try ou

I came to 1884 with very high expectations. A close friend had hyped it up as one of Mendoza's…read moremust-try fine-dining experiences -- unlimited bread, incredible food, Francis Mallmann's legacy, the whole story. And yes, the restaurant is visually beautiful. But once the meal actually began, the entire experience fell apart so completely that I left wondering how this place still has a reputation at all. THE PREPAY REQUIREMENT: A BAD SIGN I SHOULD HAVE LISTENED TO Before I even sat down, I was required to prepay for the entire experience upfront. For a restaurant that positions itself as premium fine dining, this immediately felt off -- like they don't trust their own service or quality enough to let the guest pay afterward like every other serious restaurant in the world. In hindsight, this should have been my warning. SERVICE: INATTENTIVE, CARELESS, AND DISORGANIZED The service throughout the night was shockingly mediocre for a restaurant charging this much. * They removed my bread plate mid-meal without asking, despite supposedly offering unlimited bread. * When I asked for more, they handed me a tiny leftover scrap, as if the kitchen had run out. Completely unacceptable. * Courses were dropped without enthusiasm or explanation. * The pacing was inconsistent, with long gaps at odd times. * The staff felt disengaged, like they were just going through the motions. For a restaurant with this price tag, this level of service is embarrassing. THE FOOD: ONE DISAPPOINTMENT AFTER ANOTHER Shrimp with Humita -- Disappointing and Poorly Executed The highly recommended shrimp with humita arrived as two tiny shrimp sitting on what tasted like plain creamed corn. No depth, no balance, nothing resembling fine dining. I didn't finish it because it was genuinely unpleasant. King Crab Gnocchi -- Good Pasta, Terrible Crab The gnocchi itself was soft and well made. The crab, however, was stringy, off-tasting, and filled with scraps from the shell. It completely ruined what could've been a decent dish. Wagyu Steak -- The Low Point of the Night This was supposed to be the star -- and it was easily the worst part of the meal. The Wagyu looked unappetizing, was overly salty, lacked tenderness, and tasted nothing like Wagyu should. I've had far better steak at casual chain restaurants. The potato side was bland and forgettable. Dessert -- The "Best" Part, But Still Not Good Dessert was fine, but absolutely nothing special. I've had significantly better desserts at everyday cafés across Buenos Aires for a fraction of the price. THE WINE PAIRING: LAZY, UNDERPOURED, AND MISALIGNED The wine pairing felt like an afterthought: * Three white wines in a row, none of which paired particularly well with the dishes. * Half-pours that felt cheap and stingy. * Reds and sparkling that were simply "fine" and added nothing to the experience. Nothing about it enhanced the meal or justified the price. FINAL VERDICT This was supposed to be a highlight of my Mendoza trip. Instead, it was one of the most disappointing and overpriced dining experiences I've had anywhere in the world. * Overhyped food * Weak service * A bizarre prepay requirement * Poor execution * Underwhelming wine pairing * Very little value for the money WOULD I EVER GO BACK? Absolutely not. WOULD I RECOMMEND IT TO ANYONE? No -- not to anyone. Not for any occasion. Not at any price. 1884 may be a beautiful restaurant, but everything beyond the visuals fell dramatically short. I left frustrated, disappointed, and genuinely confused as to how this place is considered "fine dining."

I was determined to come here after realizing this was Francis Mallmann's restaurant! I had no idea…read moreI would be able to attend a Chef's table Chef's restaurant, especially in Mendoza. I made reservations right away and they confirmed with me within 24 hours. We had 8pm reservations on a weekday. Cabs are cheap in Mendoza so it was easy to get to. Once finished, the restaurant will call you a cab to get back which was great and convenient. The restaurant itself is beautiful. The entrance is somewhat hidden but once you enter, everything is spectacular. We were lucky to sit outside next to the grill pit. The air smelled of woodfire which I absolutely loved. The service was impeccable and we downed two bottles of wine during our dinner. Appetizers: Octopus - It's a staple at the restaurant. It will always be on the menu and rightfully so. The octopus was grilled perfectly. It had a great char taste on the outside but super soft on the inside. Definitely not overcooked. The rustic potatoes it came with was just as good. It was fried beautifully, so crisp on the outside, piping hot on the inside. Add the lemon and olive paste aioli and it was the perfect start to a great meal. Entrees: Wagyu - AMAZING. The wagyu was like butter, cooked perfect to medium rare. It was on top of this potato chip like plate and that was just as good. So crisp and it absorbed the juices of the wagyu in the middle. Mouth watering. Rib-eye - A bit chewier than the wagyu but just as good. The meats were just grilled perfectly. No other way to say it. Desserts: Burnt Fruits - A must try! Who knew burnt fruits could be so good. The overall flavoring was a bit of cherry which I loved. All the fruits were so juicy and I loved that it was hot from the grill. Different from the usual desserts. Flan - Just as satisfying. The flan was eggy, creamy. Paired with candied nuts added great contrasting texture to the flan. Overall, so good! A wonderful meal in a beautiful restaurant. They also accept credit card and the best part is you can add tip to the credit card bill as well!

The menu is wide-ranging, both in terms of meats and other Argentine specialties. I ordered Andean pie, a dish I knew and loved from Chile (Pastel de Choclo), containing ground veal and some chopped vegetables covered with a mixture of chopped corn and chicken pieces. My wife had a strip steak with vegetables. We ate in the sidewalk cafe which had a wine dispenser from which you could choose your wine and have it poured into your glass. My wife had a 100 point Robert Parker (Wine Spectator) choice for a very reasonable price. We would eat here regularly if we were locals.
