Oliver

Reviewed By AHA2006 - New York City, New York

We stopped by Oliver for lunch recently based on our guidebook recommendation. The locro was good, but the ravioli was bland. We also ordered a "jugo natural" (a carrot juice) which was priced higher than the soda and we assumed it should be a real deal. Not really. A glass of very diluted carrot like liquid not worth 85 pesos at all! They may excel in some food and certainly the location is right at the square but otherwise, it was memorable to us not in a positive light. It also has all the flies flying all over our food and we were busy fanning off the food rather than enjoying them.

Ashpamanta

Reviewed By SuhridJoshi - London

We had a great experience at Ashpamanta and a welcome (veggie) change to the meat-focused cuisine in Argentina. The menu was inventive, with some good recommendations by the staff. The ambiance and decor was very tasteful and it was lovely to watch the food being prepared in the open kitchen - we felt like we were enjoying a delicious home-cooked meal.

Reviewed By JMGeneva - Geneva, Switzerland

A standard Argentinian menu is served in this restaurant, all with style and efficiency. The food was very good and nothing disappointed but nothing exceptional or very original either. This will be ideal if you arrive late in the hotel and are too tired to drive back to town, it is however not on par with the hotel level of excellency.

La Esquina

We had the best meal of our Salta stay in this place. No frills menu with good, local ingredients. They even offered me a second serving for free, who does that these days?

Sala de Payogasta

Reviewed By JeneferOSEA - Malibu, CA

Sitting outside on a warm, breezy summer Sunday afternoon...drinking Malbec and enjoying appetizers...better than any place I could imagine in Napa. Recommend the grilled goat cheese with herbs and the lamb. Service was a little quirky--we had to ask for wine glasses, after having our wine bottle left on the table! But if you are in it for the food (and you can forgot about the cheap paper napkins) and for an authentic Argentine experience--THIS IS THE PLACE. Save room for the goat milk flan, with the best dulce de leche in the world.

El Aujero

Reviewed By Dajoma - Cape Town Central, South Africa

We stopped there for lunch, on our way through the town.
The food was excellent and inexpensive.
Although the location is on the main street, the atmosphere was good.
There were not many customers and our service was prompt and helpings were very generous.
We were a group of 4 and ordered a helping of each of their options and shared amongst ourselves. All the food options were good.
I would certainly recommend this restaurant.

Um aconchegante e especial café em Cachi. Tem apenas 4 mesas mas é o suficiente para tomar um café com bolo e suco de laranja. Recomendo. É anexo à Hosteria Villa Cardon.

Viracocha Restaurant

Reviewed By WellTravelledPig

One of a small chain (surprisingly) of establishments, this is very well located on one of the main squares in Cachi. We ate here outside one evening. Good food and service and nice atmosphere. We had 2 chicken skewer starters, strips of beef in sauce with rich peppers and corn nibblets & rice, lomo with malbec sauce and mash, 2 litres of beer. The bill was £30 which we thought was well priced.

El Zapallo

Reviewed By westlakeh

Don't mind the dogs and flies milling about. Try the chicken and baby goat "chivito" charcoal grilled while brushed with lemon juice. Salad "complete" also just beautiful. Owner mans the grill and will not let you leave hungry. Loved this place.
