22 Best Restaurants in Buenos Aires for Parrilla, Pasta, and Potatoes | Condé Nast Traveler

"A Michelin Green Star for sustainability is impressive here, but the real question is: does the food deliver? It does. The circular cuisine concept translates to delicious, thoughtful plates. You're not eating vegetables because you should—you're eating them because Chef Julián Galende knows how to make them sing. Order the heritage tomatoes with rice vinaigrette, seaweed ketchup, hazelnuts, and tomato dashi. Galende's seasonal, zero-waste philosophy runs through everything, but you taste it rather than read about it. The team communicates the sustainability story without lecturing. The sustainable touches are everywhere, but they're woven in naturally. It feels like the neighborhood spot where everyone's in on something good." - Celeste Moure, Allie Lazar

A perfect dining experience. My boyfriend and I had an unforgettable meal here — truly a 10 out of 10. Every dish showed elegant, thoughtful flavor pairing, and the entire menu felt intentional from start to finish. The service was warm, the atmosphere was refined, and the food exceeded every expectation. We left impressed, satisfied, and already planning to come back. Highly recommended.

Incredible experience! Came here for dinner with my girlfriend and was absolutely in love with every single dish they served. The ambiance is very nice and unpretentious for a Michelin-star restaurant. Bravo!

We had a great dinner at Alcanfor. The space feels simple and personal, with candles, wood tables, and an open kitchen where you can watch the team work. Service was fantastic and they even handled a rude neighboring diner quickly and kindly, which I appreciated more than I can say. The food sticks to a zero-waste philosophy without feeling gimmicky. We started with the sourdough and brown butter and the langostinos with avocado, kimchi mayo, and crispy cabbage. It was one of my favorite dishes of the night. I had the lamb, served in a few different ways with sweet grilled quince and a fresh fennel salad, and Mariano had the perfectly cooked chernia with citrus bok choy and miso beurre blanc. We finished with a refreshing candied pomelo sorbet. The menu is small, seasonal, and smartly done. Cash gets you a 10% discount, and English menus are available. Overall, a memorable night with solid food, wonderful service, and a beautiful mission.

Really glad we discovered Alcanfor, a vibrant new spot with delicious food and great service! The lamb was delicious and the chocolate mousse was out of this world, the best I have ever had actually! I highly recommend it!

We're thrilled to have discovered Alcanfor, a true gem in the culinary scene! This innovative restaurant has stolen our hearts with its magnificent menu, which seamlessly blends taste, progressiveness, and avant-garde flair. The phenomenal selection of natural wines is a perfect complement to the culinary delights. We appreciate the focus on small, boutique wineries, which adds to the restaurant's unique charm. We felt privileged to celebrate Alcanfor's first anniversary dinner, a spectacular evening featuring a specially crafted menu by three talented chefs. The impeccable, stylish décor – simple yet warm and inviting – created the perfect ambiance for this special occasion. Whether you're planning a romantic date or a gathering with friends, Alcanfor is the perfect spot. We can't wait to return and indulge in more of their innovative cuisine and exceptional wines!

Wanna enjoy a quite dinner and found this one. Enjoy the squid and fish dishes. They have an English menu and the waitresses are very attentive and speak English as well.

after the great reviews, i was quite disappointed with my lunch experience. they could not explain the lunch menu well which was limited. i ordered the leek soup ( salty) and the beet risotto which tasted ok but was runny like a soup. strange. And they had two wine selections - cab/merlot blend and chardonnay. and they were out of the chardonnay! they tried to replace it with a muscatel desert wine. very strange after all the great reviews. service was ok. maybe they step up their game for dinners.
