I had been meaning to try the well-known La Bourgogne ever since I knew the head chef of one of my favourite restaurants in Chile worked there in the past. I was also reluctant to do so, knowing full well that it was, and still is, one of the most expensive restaurants in Buenos Aires. In general I am a... More

The atmosphere is very formal and elegant, and the wait staff is crisp and attentive. The wine list is strong, if overpriced. They do a number of traditional, showy table-side presentations. We had a scallop appetizer and sweetbreads and prawns. Both were quite good. For entrees, we had the seabass and the fillet, flambeed table-side in brandy. Again, both were... More

If you work hard and the people you love deserve what you rarely give them, please trust La Bourgogne. I cannot give you a critique on this dish or that wine. Well-heeled Epicurians might find fault. Sincerely, I say, that if you save up your pennies for a special dinner, I hope you enjoy it and good for you. Mutton... More

I you are by chance in Buenos Aires and would like to have a real French Style Dinner experience where the Excelence is present in every detail, do not doubt it. Go to La Bourgone, the restaurant at the Alvear Palace Hotel. You will feel you are in the best Paris or Cote d' Azur restaurant. Every detail is being... More

I've eaten at La Bourgogne many times and never had a bad meal. Very good food and they have recently renovated the place. I lived in Buenos Aires for 8 years and almost daily my wife and I would get fresh bread and baked goods in the Boutique de Jean Paul which is right next to La Bourgogne. We were... More

We had scallops which were overlooked and not hot. When we sent them back, the new scallops were hot and more appropriately cooked. no apology was given for this. Other dishes were average. service is professional, pleasant and many nice small touches as one would expect in a Relais et Chateau restaurant, such as amuse bouche, starter hors d'oeuvres, brioche...

This place had my higher expectations of our trip. First of all when I got there I had my sleeves folded once and I was told that if I wanted to have dinner, I would have to button my shirt. Not a problem as they said that they have a dress code (Was I at Louis XV in Monaco? No!).... More

My husband and I just returned from Buenos Aires and had the pleasure of eating at La Bourgone. We liked it so much we went twice. The food was exquisite! We had the Peking Duck the first time and Beef Wellington the second. Desserts were just delightful. Service was Haute Cusine at it's best!
