Crizia - Buenos Aires

Crizia is a very good place for fish and seafood in a city in which red meat is the focus. For the appetizer, we had the scallops, which were excellent. For the mains, I had the catch of the day, which was good. My daughter had the seafood risotto, which was also well received. For desert we had the chocolate lava cake and ice cream, which some may view as an old and tired option, but this one was as good as it gets. The waiter provided attentive service. And the sommelier recommended a range of wines a few of which were very expensive (over $300 US) but we settled on a Pinot Noir that was more like $40 US, and it was outstanding. Also worth noting is the restaurant's esthetic is very appealing after dark, with pendent lights over the bar, candlelight throughout, and large reflective windows. Overall Crizia provides very good food and service in an upscale atmosphere.

Absolutely marvelous. Great experience, the food was superb, the recommended wine list was adequate. Although expensive for Argentine standards the courtesy of the service and the great atmosphere of the place made it an unforgettable experience. Worth the visit. Kudos to the chef!

My husband and I walked into Crizia last Saturday night without a reservation. We were greeted warmly and offered seats at the bar. We enjoyed a wonderful meal for our last night in Buenos Aires! Everything was perfect! We had delicious food that was beautifully presented and excellent service. It was definitely worth the price. I highly recommend Crizia for a special occasion meal.

Service Whilst drinking pre dinner drinks we where served our starters. The food is very poor I would never eat in this restaurant again. The nail biting lady at the door was astonishing! Constantly biting her nails and fingers! Unfortunately we were there and this person was constantly having her fingers in her mouth? Hygenine? No way ! Overrated avoid this restaurant at all times. Terrible service and awful food . Do not go there! The lady at the door eating her nails was beyond alll hygienic point of view …disgusting!

Amazing small restaurant in Palermo area. Staff were attentive, wine list was expansive and the sommelier was very helpful in choosing a wine. The food was delicious and the service was very good. Highly recommend it!
