I've been in Astrid y Gaston in Lima, Santiago and now Buenos Aires and never got disappointed. The quality of the food is just great. We had three different types of ceviche as starters and meat in a wok with vegetables and rice as main course. For dessert the suspiro limeno is very sweet, just for sugar lovers. Service was...

Intimate spot with so much personality, I was so happy to find this place! The ingredients were fresh, the food plated with care, and all extremely delicious. If you're in Buenos Aires, I highly recommend visiting Astrid y Gaston (unless you plan on making it to Peru, then go to the one in Lima instead!)

Somewhat over rated, cebiche nice, but what could go wrong there...main dishes with fancy description but nothing impressive and waiters in bad mood....not worth the price , expected a lot more.

I went to the restaurant during the BA Food Week April 15-22, 2013. There was a special promotion. We didn´t know that it was more of a tasting that actual food. So the portions were very small, it seems that they were trying to save money!!!. Food was very well prepared. Service was very good. We paid 50us$ per person... More

Great value for money at Astrid y Gaston duing BA Food Week April 15-22. For 99 pesos (US420 or less depending on the exchange rate used) we had a three course lunch of ceviche, linguado and dessert. The food was delicately prepared, fresh and nicely presented. Great pisco sour too, but that was extra.

I found this experience to be somewhat disappointing. While the food was well presented and offered new combinations of flavors, I found that the best part of the meal was the appetizers. We ordered causas....which were heavy on the potatoes and skimpy on the flavourful toppings...stuffed potatoes, which were very good and civichi which was out of this world. (According... More

If you are in BA and want fish one evening, go to this place in Palermo. The food is excellent and the restaurant very nice with good service.

I went with my mom (visiting from out of town--I work in Bs As). We arrived early and were promptly seated upstairs, where it was very warm. We ordered the ceviche classico to start. Fairly average ceviche for Bs As and I have had much better at the restaurant called "Ceviche" or at Francesco. The fish pieces were big and... More

Buenos Aires has no shortage of good restaurants, however when it comes to great restaurants, the list gets substantially reduced. Astrid & Gastón belongs in the latter category. For those of you who are not familiar with A & G, the cuisine is Peruvian based. I hate the word or concepts of "chain" restaurants, so let me say there are... More

The restaurant is wonderful. Both, the building and the food are excellent. You can find delicious peruvian food (chef version) and other kind of meal (not too much). Lomo saltado is an excellent choice.
