Itakua - Municipio de Posadas

We have eaten at Itakva each of our three trips to Posadas and it has never disappointed--quite the contrary. From its ultra-modern decor (combined with rustic; its back wall is the cliff face from upper Posadas) to its fresh breads and interesting menu--not to mention...the great view of the Paraná River--Itakva is worth a detour from Rt.

Came in for lunch and it was very nice. It's right on the coast of the Pirana River, so the views are wonderful. Really good food too, won't be disappointed.

Excellent meat. Poor Service. Great view. Locals recommend to eat there. Good view. Bad climate Control. No true local Beer, but international Standard. Definitely to recommend.

The building is ultra-modern and very high-spec with floor-to-ceiling windows that in theory though, given the hot and humid local climate, they almost never do can concertina aside to provide a completely open to the costanera patio ambience. The tables are good quality...and fairly comfortably spaced, with a small lower-level side table for your wine, ice bucket, etc (a very good idea this). The bar looks terrific too..! So what can possibly go wrong? The food..!!! At best just OK, at worst terrible. I live in Posadas for about months every year and used to come here quite often, but my last few visits have been very disappointing on all levels. Oh, and need I say, they have bumped up their prices a lot esp the wine which now has a mark-up most local restaurants mark-up by and many even allow BYO (with a descorkage fee). years ago I promised not to come here again until I heard a positive review unfortunately I did not keep my promise. Many reviewers say its good for cocktails, etc if true, best to stick to that then. . .

This place is right at the promenade, close to the colossal metal statute. The drinks are absolutely delicious (we tried sangria and a smoothie) and the atmosphere is perfect. On the downside the food was just OK (my surubi was very dry, and my wife's...salmon was also nothing special). The main issue we had with this place however, was that the waiters were completely incompetent and painfully slow. We literally had to wait for anything more than min, no matter whether it was ordering the food in the first place or getting the cheque and change at the end. They even made a calculation mistake in our bill and forgot to bring us the last drink we had ordered. I'd come again for the drinks, not the food.
