They have an extensive menu of their signature cocktails and a wide range of spirits on hand very each had martinis that were well shaken and served with a generous twist of Keon.

There's a small food menu which we did not sample. They also have a humidor for those interested in a cigar.

The…read moresunset itself isn't anything mind-blowing, but you do get nice views of the city, the river, and the Floralis Generica lit up, which was a cool thing to see. One thing to know going in is that there's a minimum bar tab and a two-hour time limit, which can be a little annoying if you're just hoping for one quick drink and a small bite. That said, the drinks and food were solid. The Grey Goose martinis were well made, and the buffalo mozzarella caprese appetizer was really good and easy to recommend. Good spot for a sunset drink if you're okay settling in for a bit rather than popping in and out.

During our trip to Buenos Aires, we were disappointed with how many of the highly rated cocktail…read morebars were just not good.....like at all. The drinks were bad. The places were loud and the music was not cohesive to the ambiance. We luckily found the Harrison Speakeasy and we had such a wonderful time. It's open late and really gives the speakeasy vibes that so many "speakeasies" are lacking these days. The music was great. The DJ was very impressive and played a nice array of music. Seamlessly mixing old and new salsa and more. The drinks - we finally had some good drinks here! I was so happy after the previous bars we had been to. The only downside here was that we got there and were having such a good time, then it closed and we were left wanting more. It was such a nice time and I really appreciated the opportunity to visit during our trip!

The Harrison is a New York prohibition themed speakeasy tucked behind the Nicky NY sushi. To enter,…read moreyou must walk through the restaurant and a server will take you behind the wine cellar and a "Time Machine". It was a bit funny seeing another country's interpretation of "American culture" but I think Harrison nailed it - from the New York newspaper menus to the classy interior to the expertly made cocktails. I could not decide on the cocktail menu, so the bartender asked me what my preferences were. She whipped up a mint banana drink and it was SO AMAZINGLY GOOD. Like one of the best cocktails of my life. AND it was only $6!! (Granted, all the cocktails in Buenos Aires are $6 USD) During my visit to Buenos Aires I also tried two of the "world's top 50" bars: Tres Monos and Floreria Atlantico. Honestly, I think Harrison has them both beat in terms of ambiance and beverage. Wonderful experience and I will definitely come back the next time I'm in town.

Arriving back from Iguaza Falls, we decided to risk a very late dinner here without reservations…read more The uber ride dropped us off and a pleasant employee guided us to the location as we were a bit bewildered as to where the flower shop storefront was located. We loved the florist- yes plenty of fresh flowers in the shop, They opened the walk in fridge door and we walked downstairs to the speakeasy amid the dj spinning records. We were seated at a table and a very pleasant server ( who spoke English) dropped of our menus and took our drink orders. My aperol spritz was refreshing and hubby enjoyed his cocktail too. Our preferences for seafood or veggies allowed our server to make recommendations that were amazing. The complimentary sourdough bread was devoured- it had been a long 24 hrs without much food - another story! The crab empanada was large enough to share and was AMAZINGLY yummy. No wonder it is one of the most ordered dishes. Hubby loved his anchovy crostini, the BBQ shrimp - delicious, and we shared the argula salad- also a winner. Not much wait for an Uber back to our Airbnb at 1am- time to prepare for tomorrow's departure. Hope to return in the future!

Rating: 4.8/5 [dine in]…read more This speakeasy is tucked inside a flower shop and has made the World's Top 50 Bars list for 11 years, so we had to check it out! We came on a Friday around 6:30 PM and were seated right away. The vibe was calm enough to hold a conversation, though we were told that around 9:30 PM a DJ comes on and the energy shifts. After walking through the flower shop, a host led us through a hidden door and down a flight of stairs into the bar. The menu is extensive, so it took us a few minutes to decide, but our cocktails arrived quickly. Presentation is simple with no flashy garnishes, yet the drinks were crystal clear and incredibly balanced. They were so good we finished them fast. Highly recommend the Yvy Maraey (14,800 ARS)!

So yeah, I recommend the place as well as a little research on the price which in my opinion must be done when traveling around the world :) Cheers!

Rating: 3.2/5 [dine in]…read more Saw great reviews for this spot, so we decided to swing by. Service was great, and they spoke English as well, which was helpful. Unfortunately, the drinks didn't quite live up to the hype compared to other cocktail bars we tried that day. White Jasmine ($11,500 ARS): Heraclito London Dry Gin, Cardamom, Lemon Honey, Jasmine Tea (ABV 18.8%). Better than the 1869. You can pick up the flavors, but the lemon honey aftertaste was a bit too strong. 1869 ($12,500 ARS): Havana 7 Rum, Zuelo Torrontés Vinegar, Dates, Pomegranate (ABV 19.6%). Sweet, but the alcohol flavor overpowered everything else. Also, the foam topping was too heavy.

The space itself is dark - we were given a mini-flashlight to read the menu. Most of the staff speak a little English - they also have an English menu if you need it. We had the ceviche, the soft boiled and mushroom croquetta appetizer, the squid ink risotto, and a dulce de leche meringue dessert. The food had balanced and unique flavors and was cooked perfectly. My favorite was the ceviche with fresh salmon and ginger undertones. We were very well taken care of by Javier, one of the bartenders. He provided great food and wine recommendations throughout the night. We will definitely be back for another meal before we leave Argentina!
