Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

We came here as it was highly rated on Tripadvisor. The decor is quirky and thr food was indeed very good, albeit some patience was needed. However unfortunately the rude awakening came with the bill: they don't accept foreign credit cards. It wouldn't have been...a problem at all if we had known in advance, however they didn't tell us at the time we made the reservation nor was it stated on the menue nor did the waiter tell us upon ordering. Luckily we had a bit foreign and local cash with us, as at night you don't walk around with large sums of cash in Argentina. They gave us the worst exchange rate of our 3 months stay, even below the official rate. Not sure whether there is a pattern, yet the table of foreigners next to us also had issues upon payment. The way they handled the whole situation (all only in Spanish of course) left us with a sour feeling, hence we recommend that as a foreigner you'd better dine elsewhere.More

A lovely quirky restaurant creating a nice atmosphere. Food was delicious, the extra little ingredients making it stand out from basic meals served elsewhere. Our waitress was very patient in explaining the different dishes to us in English, her politeness and smile added to a...lovely evening. We’d turned up a few nights before on spec and were unable to get a table so booking would be advised.More

This place was recommended to us by one of the locals and we are so grateful we went. If you visit San Martin De Los Andres this place is a must!! The quirky & kitsch decor sparked many discussions as we tried to find the...most interesting piece, bring up memories or stories or even the Argentine favourite, a political discussion. However, this couldn't distract us from the amazing flavours and presentation of the food. The provolone salad was THE best salad I've had in Argentina; the local trout was mouth watering and the lamb was full of flavour and so tender. Staff were friendly and so knowledgable about the food and recommended us an excellent wine. Please do yourself a favour and book to make sure you get a spot to eat here!!More

Incredible flavors in every dish I had the opportunity to try. Super recommended. If you pass through San Martín, don't leave without stopping by here and trying their tasty food.

Delicious food, very tasty and quite large portions. Quite varied menu for such a small place and great wine options too. Perhaps the “only” low point is that service is a bit slow. One waitress could not charge the bill and had to wait until...the owner did it. Besides that, everything was amazing, great ambience and decoration, and absolutely tasty Patagonian food. We booked on site the day before as they don’t use WhatsApp or email for booking (only calls).More

Absolutely cool place! And the food is stunning 🤩 Ceviche is a must to try! Lady who owns it is a shining star and her creazy chef husband is an maestro in the kitchen. Make sure you won’t miss this place!

Great food, great wine, and great atmosphere. Morphen takes traditional patagonian dishes and adds their own touch to them.

I didn't like the food here much, was disappointed. The atmosphere was pretty weird, we felt stared down. We ate quickly and left.

Delicious food and excellent service. Our server Maru was attentive and helpful. My friend and I both had the pumpkin filled pasta (I think they were sorrentinos) with curry sauce. I also had 2 glasses of wine. Everything was quite tasty. The decor / ambiance...is also quite unique and eclectic. Excellent place in SMDLA!More

We dined here the second night we stayed in San Martin. Following TripAdvisor, rating this restaurant as no. 1, our expectations were elevated. Arriving at 9 pm we’ve been the first guests. Service was prompt and friendly. We ordered lamb and pork. Looked exactly the...same. In shape and presentation. OK, taste was different. As it should. But honestly; nothing special! You will find this quality around every single corner in San Martin. Nothing really wrong. But nothing really special. Average does not justify that rating!More

I agree with others here - great restaurant, at least our best restaurant experience in San Martin. Especially the ceviche, one of the best ever (since we started eating it in Lima in 1992!). One serving really is enough for two people, which the nice...waitress pointed out - otherwise we would have been too full for the main course. Also had the trout with carrot mousse (loved it) and the sort-of-ravioli with shrimps. Thank you for a nice evening - including an accordion musician to liven up the place for a while :-)More
