Malvón

The waffle I ordered was alright, the coffee was INCREDIBLE. Prices were also quite fair. The standout was the decoration however, absolutely stunning place with whimsical touches all over. Stayed for around 5 hours working and never felt rushed or pressured by staff.

Beautiful place, but extremely slow service!!

Great place! Super cozy and nice atmosphere. Very kind staff and very good bakery

*Beautifuly stunning, hole in the wall must see vibe. *Pretty back yard filled with plants *Nice bathroom set up *Staff didn't take orders (30 min) we had to request service then waited (20 min) for avocado toast and orange juice. This made us almost late to our appointments. (The avocado toast was worth it)

A jewel in Palermo! Beautiful restaurant, pleasantly quiet outdoor area, extremely friendly staff and the finest culinary delights. And all at reasonable prices. Absolutely recommendable.

Horrible service and mediocre food. We arrived at noon and sat at a table with dirty dishes. It took the waitress 10 minutes to remove the dirty dishes and bring menus, meanwhile the manager stood at the door with his biceps and never thought to deliver the menus he held in his hands, or help clear a table or the waitstaff. We asked for bottled water as it was 30 degrees. Five minutes later the waitress returned without the water to take our order. We were told the items we wanted were unavailable as they stopped serving breakfast at noon. We said we were there before noon. (They could have removed the breakfast menu from the menus they delivered, or at least said that menu was no longer available.) They said we had to order from the brunch menu which was about 2000 pesos more expensive than the same item on the breakfast menu. We ordered and again asked for the water: Ten minutes later we called the waiter and asked again for water and we were told they would bring it out with our food. We said we were thirsty now and wanted the water. The hamburger was dry. The waitstaff will pass by a table with dirty dishes and don’t have the intelligence to figure out that while they are there they could pick up dirty dishes or do something to provide good service. Horrible experience. I have never not tipped at a restaurant. I could not in good conscience tip at Malvon because it was the worst service I’ve ever received. The management and staff need to be replaced or trained.

Awful service - had to request twice after waiting 30 minutes. Though the waitress who did serve us was very kind and helpful. Shame it took so long!

Came for brunch, eggs Benedict with salmon were pretty good. Superhero is a big dish loaded with flavor, absolutely awesome. Service was amazing and the patio is cute! Prices were fair.

Good coffee. Good pastries. Friendly staff. They also have an English menu for anyone who needs it. Great place to come get food and get some work done.

We came for lunch on a Saturday and were very pleasantly surprised. Now, this place looks like it could be in the middle of Greenwich Village in New York or possibly Portland, Oregon it has that slightly grunge look to it with at the same time being a bit upscale. The menu has lots of options, both for carnivores and vegetarians. Plenty of fresh baked goods, chicken sausages, eggs, frankfurters and other sausages etc. We ordered the superpower which was two different sausage type links, with sautéed spinach and roasted tomatoes, a large piece of a very creamy French toast and a small cast-iron pot with creamy scrambled eggs. In addition to all that on the platter there was a small, almost tiny bowl of fresh granola mixed with freshly cut peaches and apples in a little bit of a syrup, also a corn muffin for each person. Before the food came out they brought a bread basket with two slices each of three different types of bread - seeded bread, a dark bread, and a white country type loaf. It was served with a strawberry butter which was divine. Our second entrée choice was that chicken apple sausage which was three separaten2 1/2 ounce patties of very lean chicken sausage with a little bit of fennel in it and I did not notice the apple whatsoever, three large wedges of fried cheddar polenta that had lots of flavor, a poached egg in the center on top of sautéed red onions, red, yellow and green peppers with cherry tomatoes and spinach. It was a lot of food! The only problem with that dish was that the red onions were nearly raw and very harsh. Both of those dishes are also served with cafe con leche, tea, mate or lemonade. We opted for bottles of water. They serve a bunch of sandwiches until 8 PM and it looks like all of the breakfast until four and then they serve a bunch of deli/meat and charcuterie platter's between four and eight. Looks like they have a separate menu for dinner. The ambulance is very cute - the front room is kind of like a porch before you get into the main restaurant and all of the furniture is mismatched all over the entire restaurant. When you walk in the coffee station and pastries and kitchen are to the right and there's more seating to the left, continue through the back and you go to an open patio and the restrooms are to the right and back with coed services for the sinks and individual stalls labeled for each sex. The food was good enough and different enough - and quite a welcome change of pace from all of the meat here in Argentina! - that we might return for dinner.

There are so many things done right here, and they all come together so nicely, that 5+ stars would be more appropriate score. Firstly, the space: an old house typical of the many neighborhoods in BA, with both street and back of the house outdoor seating, and then several open but smartly subdivided sections. Then there's the bake goods: there went my no carb diet! Freshly baked and a great variety to pick from. Full disclosure, I do know one of the principals, and I've seen first hand the extent to which he and the whole team aims at continuously improve the op. All in all, the place you dream of when you think of your dream home in BA, with fantastic restaurant in it to boot!

Having stayed in a local Air-Bnb in the neighborhood, this was one of the few restaurants that was open around brunch time on a Sunday. The ambiance of the restaurant was rather hip and trendy as it was decorated with old wood and metal knick-knacks which I personally thought added a bit of history and character to this little restaurant. Melvon, most certainly seems like the local place to go with your family and relax. When we arrived in the latter half of the morning, there were multiple families and a mix from an older crowd who seemed to be at peace reading their newspapers and catching up with one another over their espresso. The food was rather great for the most part. I ordered the Rib dish, which was served with a latte, side "salad" (just some lettuce leaves, with a dash of their house dressing). The ribs were wonderfully prepared and cooked in a traditional Argentinian way, the meat simply fell off the bones making it easy to consume with a fork and knife. The portions of the food served also exceeded expectations. If you are looking for a nice meal to satisfy your appetite and like speedy service, I highly recommend this charming little spot.

My favorite for brunch. Price practically like in the USA, but great quality and really sweet space and vibe.

The nachos? It's like a 7 year old took stale tortilla chips, moldy shredded cheese, nuked it in the microwave and served it to his mother, burning her hand on the hot plate. The hummus? Looked like poo mixed with cat food. It tasted like smooshed olives. The "homemade bread" never came. The electricity? Went off. Completely. For 10 seconds. SIX TIMES. This place might look classy and tasty, but it is a TRICK. Not worth the 130 pesos.

Cozy little bakery. Great for lunch, coffee, or pastry snack. Plenty of room to setup your laptop or to spread out with the Sunday paper. French onion soup is a great treat on a cold day.

Great place! We went for breakfast. My husband is a breakfast fanatic- loves his eggs in the morning and he says the scrambled eggs with pancetta here were among the best he's ever had! Service was excellent too!
