Juarez RechFebruary 19, 2019Great ambiance, great service, great food. There is no way to go wrong. La Zeina is one of the best restaurant in the region. Try the Cordeiro ao molho Malbec! Superb!!
Alexandre GrojsgoldMarch 5, 2017Had a trucha con risotto de vegetales. My wife had lamb, that seems to be the best in town. Don't be fooled by the outside looking of the restaurant - the food is the best in El Calafate.- Vera KernApril 9, 2017Delicious food at a good price, lovely staff. Very cute place, unusual drinks. Do get the Malbec ice cream for dessert, I couldn't stop eating it.
- Massimo FerrariDecember 15, 2019Great atmosphere, cool place, fantastic food. Must go in Calafate. Try obviously cordero. Good pasta and gnocchi if you are vegetarian.
Vladimir MatovicMarch 20, 2019Probably the best lamb in town. Lovely rustic ambient and OK service. One advice; don’t order chicken stew - it’s too small and not that good. Go for the lamb!
Kathryn DDecember 30, 2017Cozy atmosphere and friendly service. The trout is fresh and not too heavy. For vegetarians, beet gnocchi is the right choice.- Benjamin GoublyApril 15, 2012Very cool cozy place, very friendly, definitely out of the tourist scene and mostly locals, you feel right at home here, great to have drinks and relax.
Suzanne WeinstockDecember 27, 2012Best stew I've ever had in my life and the empanadas are amazing. Be sure to get the spicy salsa for the empanadas.
Amelia KwanJanuary 18, 2015Great ambiance and great food. Away from madness on the Main Street. Make reservations or come early.
Frederik LohnerDecember 16, 2018So good! The mushroom risotto and steak are the best things on the menu by far.
Moshe GershoniJanuary 27, 2018Greate atmosphere , excellent service and excellent food. Lamb stew was excellent
- Frederik LohnerDecember 18, 2018The owner is clearly passionate about the quality of the food he serves and is unwilling to compromise, if he feels like a particular ingredient is not up to par then he does not serve it. Delicious
Alexandra IvanovaApril 9, 2016Unfortunately, bad lamb in malbec sauce - first time it was super dry, second time super salty. Though the trout with risotto - amazing!! Bad aftertaste and shattered expectations. For me, overrated!
Laurie HFebruary 18, 2012Come here if you're looking for a change from the tourist scene. Very cool place
Feras MousilliJanuary 14, 2019Ridiculous wait and they don’t keep an actual list for walk-ins, so it’s a mess.
Denisse HernandezAugust 27, 2018Uno de los mejores lugares de Calafate!Si vienes aquí: El cordero braseado al Malbec, (lo mejor de calafate). Acompañamos con pasta c albóndigas de cordero, vino El fin del mundo y el flan de la casa.
Jess GarciaNovember 22, 2017Definitivamente el cordero braseado al Malbec es imperdible! La atención muy buena, el lugar muy acogedor para disfrutar una deliciosa cena en excelente compañía y con un rico vino argentino ⭐️⭐️⭐️
Marta PessoaMarch 5, 2017Melhor cordeiro braseado do mundo! Risoto de truta perfeito. Sorvete de lavanda delicioso, de tomilho bem exótico vale a pena provar. Serviço impecável, decoração linda. Não se engane com o lado fora
- Denisse HernandezAugust 30, 2018Regresamos a la Zaina!! Wow magnífico: Cordero al Malbec(estrella del lugar), la trucha un plato tb ⭐️, acompañado con un🍷 y un helado de lavanda. Lo mejor de Calafate!! Cruz el mesero wow. 1800 $
DanusaDecember 26, 2016Talvez o melhor restaurante da cidade e, sem dúvida, o mais aconchegante. Atendimento ótimo, comida ótima, pão ótimo. Tudo muito bom!
Rodrigo GarcíaFebruary 25, 2017Excelente restaurante, el mejor cordero que probé en El Calafate, dimos ahí sin querer ya que no está sobre la avenida turística y nos encantó. Una vez que entras al Restaurant, cambia tu perspectiva
Pedro FacchiniJanuary 4, 2019Cordeiro braseado sensacional e bem servido. O melhor que comi na Patagônia! Carta de vinhos também com ótimas opções. Lembre-se de reservar pois é bastante concorrido!
Joseph SanchezMarch 19, 2018Sin duda el mejor cordero qué hay en Calafate, gracias por la recomendaciones en esta aplicación llegue a este magnífico lugar
Henrique LimaMarch 1, 2020Ambiente aconchegante. Pratos muito bem montados! Entrada Tóston de Morcilla e prato principal Cordeiro com legumes grelhados. Estavam deliciosos! Carta de vinho excelente.
- NadiaJanuary 13, 2019Increíble lugar! Todo es bueno. El trato de la gente, el espacio es un museo. El cordero al Malbec es de lo más rico que probamos en la vida! Se deshace. No se pierdan La Zaina!!!
Carlos SassakiOctober 7, 2018Ambiente agradável, decoração peculiar e ótima comida. Pratos bem servidos e saborosos. Atendimento atencioso e cordial. Vale muito a pena. Pedi cordeiro ao molho de vinho malbec e estava saboro
Érica LoureiroSeptember 7, 2016Comida farta e saborosa, ambiente charmoso, bom atendimento, preços relativamente altos, mas mais honestos que os que temos encontrado, em geral, na cidade (set/2016). Churrasco e cordeiro saborosos.
Luiz Alexandre VazNovember 16, 2017Fui duas vezes e voltaria outras ... só faça reserva pq sempre lotado, comi Cordeiro e guanaca . Excêntrico ! Ambiente simples , comida maravilhosa e preço um pouco elevado , mas vale experimentar .
Mel de AbelhaNovember 3, 2016O melhor cordeiro que já comi, harmonizado com o vinho da região. Ambiente super bem decorado e atendimento muito bom. Quando visitar El Calafate, vá a esse restaurante!
Kenji YamamotoJuly 26, 2019Nhoque a remoltcha é incrível e a Truta com risoto de legumes imperdível !
