Service was also very nice here since it wasn't as busy as some of the more touristy, popular places. The ice cream itself was less sugar ridden than other places and perfectly palatable.

We visited Mamuschka in Buenos Aires several times.

On our second visit, the staff was much more attentive and kind, helping us receive the proper discount without unnecessary requests for documents. The chocolates are excellent, though prices are slightly higher than in other branches. Overall, this branch offers a better balance of service and quality compared to other branches, like those in Bariloche, where service can be rushed, chaotic, or even dismissive. I give this branch 4 stars, as the experience is positive and the staff genuinely tried to help. Visitamos Mamuschka en Buenos Aires varias veces. La primera visita fue confusa y algo decepcionante: mi padre, que habla español con fluidez, intentó ayudarme, mientras que yo no, y no nos informaron sobre el descuento para turistas. En nuestra segunda visita, el personal fue mucho más atento y amable, ayudándonos a recibir el descuento correcto sin solicitudes innecesarias de documentos. Los chocolates son excelentes, aunque los precios son un poco más altos que en otras sucursales. En general, esta sucursal ofrece un mejor equilibrio entre servicio y calidad en comparación con otras sucursales, como las de Bariloche, donde el servicio puede ser apresurado, caótico o incluso descortés. Le doy a esta sucursal 4 estrellas, ya que la experiencia es positiva y el personal realmente intentó ayudarnos.

You don't have to be addicted to chocolate to fall in love with this place!!!…read moreI first got to know then from Bariloche, they offered me the best waffle I have ever had in my life! At this store unlike Bariloche, the don't offer waffles, crepes or ice cream, but the chocolate worth the visit! Believee you won't regret it. You buy per KG and you can choose the amount and the flavor you want, they will be have to serve you. You can also get pre made packages if you wish.

Individual chocolates, which are fabulous, can be boxed. The packaging is elegant and sophisticated; reeks of good taste. (Pardon the pun.) They are also smart to have some chocolates available to sample. I would have given them 5 stars, but there are some changes/improvements that need to be made: 1. They don't display prices on anything. Being from the U.S., I am accustomed to seeing prices on all merchandise, whether it's a bag of peanuts or a Tesla model S. Otherwise, there is an undertone that makes you feel that the clerk could quote whatever price she wants and then can pocket the difference. Possible? Certainly. Likely? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ But that left me with a bad taste in my mouth. Sorry. For the lopsided pun, that is. 2. Additionally, the lack of prices requires one to inquire about every single thing. By the time you have asked the price of 4 items, you no longer remember the price of the first. Frustrating. 3. Chocolates should also be accompanied by a description; just 2-3 words would help. You have to point to every single option and ask what it is. By the time she has explained the fourth or fifth chocolate, you no longer remember what the first one was. And there are many more to go ... a needlessly frustrating and confusing situation. The first time we visited and went through this procedure, we left without buying anything. We returned last week only because a friend recommended them as being a favorite of another friend for whom we needed to buy a gift.

This location has a small outdoor seating area with greenery and a stylish modern interior! The ice cream here is still as delicious as others have described. Plenty of flavors of ice cream handmade daily. They give you a large quantity of decadence! A small is one scoop, medium is two scoops, and I'm assuming a large is three scoops. Service was friendly despite our limited spanish. We were able to pay and order easily. Overall a must try ice creamery. Also appears to be a highly recommended chain throughout Buenos Aires!
