Places to eat

Caro Pepe |
| You've probably heard that Argentina is famous for its tender, juicy cuts of beef, but what you might not know, is that when it comes to food, Argentines love their buffets. And these buffets are not simply a few dishes thrown out for the taking. These are gourmet meals delicately prepared to satisfy carnivores and vegetarians alike. |

|
Estancia La Florencia |
| A popular meat-eating spot along Sarmiento, La Florencia likely owes half of its success to its street-side kitchen, outside of which passersby can watch a cornucopia of carnes sizzling over a wood-fired grill. |
|
|
Tommaso Trattoria |
| Mixed in among the rest of the upscale restaurants near the intersection of Sarmiento and Belgrano, this Italian eatery oozes quiet sophistication, and all at prices a tad bit lower than its neighboring counterparts. |

The Vines of Mendoza |
| For those frustrated by Mendoza’s lack of wine tourism infrastructure, Vines of Mendoza is a refreshing alternative. Offering a wine bar where you can purchase flights of wine or wines by the glass (all regional, of course), this Tuscan-chic-themed vinoteca is a great way to enjoy the wines that made Mendoza famous. |
|
|
Almacen del Sur |
| For anyone who appreciates the finer things in life, the fine-foods gift shop and restaurant in Maipú is a must visit. A large house built in 1888 amongst sweeping views of the Mendoza region and the Andes Mountains, the casona itself is notable. Using only food grown on the company’s surrounding land, it offers some of the best food and products in Mendoza. |
