La Lechuza Restaurant - El Calafate

I loved their milanesa a la napolitana! This restaurant is affordable and simple. Try their cheap menu, you won't get disappointed.

Thick biscuity pizza base, sloppy ravioli drowning in sloppy sauce, nothing nice available on the wine list (only a Spar wine which is always on discount in Europe and only students buy). You will come away full and not upset but when on holidays it's nice to imagine that there could be something better to enjoy.

First day in Argentina, expecting to have a great pizza, La Lechuza didn't disappoint. I tried Carajo (pepper, dried tomato and lots of garlic) which was really tasty. However service was truly mediocre. For a Sunday afternoon, the town seemed extremely calm, and only a few restaurants/shops were open. Nonetheless, La Lechuza was available, but the servers were absent when we needed them and we were left on our own for long periods of time.

Ate lunch here,as some places were closed at the time. rainbow salmon was great, grilled lamb ok, mushroom fungal pie dry . restroom outside restaurant upstairs .
