La Fuerza

Such a lovely vermouth experience! When we told them it was our first time visiting, they gave us a complimentary vermouth tasting. One of the owners stopped by and gave us a great education on vermouth which helped us choose what to order. The Rojo vermouth was different than most other sweet vermouths I’ve tried, but the sideral and primavera were our favorites and we ended up going home with bottles of both! It also happened to be vermouth hour so our drinks were either discounted or 2 for 1! Highly recommend the provenzal fries which were so good and a great pairing to snack on. Was fun sitting at the bar and chatting with others around us. We didn’t want to leave!

Can’t rate the food because we came here after dinner, but what I saw coming out of the kitchen looked good. This was a great post-dinner drink spot for us. Lots of vermouth cocktails to select from, with vermouth that they make themselves. There are three types: rojo (more bitter), blanco (more sweet) and primavera (in the middle). The drinks were well-balanced and the atmosphere is festive and fun thanks to the colorful artwork and design details. I enjoyed the vermu la fuerza (rojo vermouth and soda) and the Caipi de Verano (blanco vermouth with vodka, mint, and lime). Bar service was not very proactively attentive but we had no problem flagging the bartender when we were ready for another round. Five stars for quality of the drinks, three stars for service, five stars for atmosphere. Also, if you love merch, you’ll likely want to buy a t-shirt!

Great contemporary typical Argentine cuisine restaurant serving elevated dishes. The setting is relaxed, menu is uncomplicated. Vermouth is the center point of the drinks menu. Ordered the fainazzeta de napolitana (thick chickpea pancake - think French socca or Italian farinata) with mozzarella and cuartirolo (Argentine melty) cheese, and heirloom tomatoes. Flavors were on point, and it was very filling. To drink I had a tónico de Los Andes. Dessert was a flan con dulce de leche (which certainly could have used more dulce de leche!), but was quite tasty.

Loved it here. Went around 4:30/5 and their Vermouth and vermouth cocktails were super good and the food we got was great. Really tasty and unique flavors. Cool vibe. Would def recommend!

Unique experience to have housemade vermouth in a cozy bar. 2 levels, so you can sit inside where it's mildly lit and quiet or you can go upstairs to the outside rooftop. We sat inside and it's the perfect place for a date night experience; we had some of their vermouth tastings and something like croquette balls. I'm not a huge vermouth fan, but really enjoyed the experience here. Vermouth is very well integrated into Argentinian culture, and this bar does one of the top productions of it.

Fantastic bar where they have home made vermouth. Good cocktails and the food options were very good that we tried. Also they offer vermouth to go. Definitely recommend!

Lovely bar to try Vermù (fortified wine), super cozy with great service. Try the terrace upstairs if it’s nice out, it’s so pretty! Food was alright, we tried the octavet platter, it was a bit of a strange mix imo and lacking flavors.

Interesting place, it's mainly a place to drink vermouth, which they have many varieties of, but also works as a restaurant with a small but very interesting and unusual menu, sucha as the fainanezza (a combination of faina and fugazzetta), and the buñuelos de acelga, smooth and delicious. My only criticism is they probably should have more options for us teetotal people, and the flan mixto had a lot of cream, but very little dulce de leche.

Este lugar icónico es perfecto para quienes valoran las tradiciones argentinas y una mirada moderna hacia la cultura del vermut. La Fuerza es famoso por su vermut artesanal, elaborado con ingredientes locales y de sabor único. Ofrecen dos variedades principales: blanco (fresco y cítrico) y rojo (intenso y aromático). Ambos se sirven con la proporción perfecta de soda y hielo, convirtiéndose en la mejor opción para cualquier ocasión. La comida es sencilla pero de excelente calidad, ideal para acompañar los tragos. El interior es minimalista, con un ambiente relajado y moderno. Se recomienda llegar temprano para conseguir los mejores lugares.

Had a tasting at this venue. The vermouth and the cocktails made with vermouth were top tier excellent! We had a charcuterie board with fresh ingredients and beautiful color. The presentation was fab!

This was my favorite neighborhood restaurant during my stay. The burrata, lamb, faina, and malbec were delicious. My friend loved the vermouth. Fun rooftop bar and great service.

The upstairs patio was fun at night but you need to be comfortable with the smokers. Decent vegetarian choices though the eggs and potatoes were not a big deal. Great service with attentive staff. The house drinks are awesome! Take a couple of bottles home!

I've been to this place a million times because I live very close. Sadly on my last visit I was food poisoned. I went with a friend, we had omelette and vegetable fritters, we had vermouth. We both got poisoned. My poisoning was severe and I spent 5 days in bed. I lost 7 kg and had to cancel a trip abroad. My friend suffered slightly less than I did, perhaps because she ate less. According to my doctor in La Fuerza they gave us something to eat in a terrible state. Since I was a client of the place and I also walked by all the time, I knew many of those who worked. One day I mentioned what happened to one of the managers (a bald, short boy with a beard) and at least he apologized and was obviously embarrassed. It would have been nice if he had at least offered me to refund the amount I paid for that meal, which he did not do. This happened a long time ago, before the pandemic and I am only publishing this review now.
