Restaurants in Puerto Madryn

  1. A

    Mr Jones

    With a wealth of yummy stouts and reds, homemade pot pie and sausages, Mr Jones will satiate your appetite for all things German. The food is good and reasonably authentic.

    Plácido

    This sleek new addition to Madryn’s waterfront serves beautifully presented versions of traditional dishes such as shrimp in garlic and cordero patagónico (Patagonian lamb) in a minimalist setting. Try the shellfish sampler paired with a bottle of white from Bodega Fin del Mundo.

    Los Colonos

    Depending on your perspective, the design of this corner restaurant – resembling an old wooden ship, complete with a mini lighthouse near the entrance – is either corny or festive. We vote for the latter, but maybe that’s just because the seafood is fresh and classically prepared.

    Lizzard Café

    This popular corner cafe and eatery draws a young crowd in the evenings for beer, pizza and sandwiches. Hit your daily vegetable quota while you can (fresh produce is often hard to come by in Patagonia) with the salad heaped high with egg, bell pepper, pineapple and olives.

    Taska Beltza

    For a big night out, try the Basque cooking of Chef Negro, who expertly steams fish and crafts tasty pastas. Portions are small, leaving room for homemade banana ice cream drizzled with dark chocolate and dulce de leche (milk caramel). Reservations are advised.

    Ambigú

    With a focus on fresh ingredients and creative combinations, Ambigú masters a gamut of dishes, including seafood – try the langostinos (prawns) in sea salt – and pizza. The setting is an elegant renovation of a historic bank building, backlit by warm colors.

    Estela

    The sweet smell of garlic sautéeing in the kitchen will stop you in your tracks if you’re outside. Billed as Puerto Madryn’s best parrilla (steak restaurant), Estela also does pasta and fish in an intimate, unpretentious setting often packed with locals.

    Mar y Meseta

    Colorful and cozy, this elegant seafood restaurant dishes up clever creations for a handful of tables. While the service is great, the food can be hit or miss: you can’t go wrong, however, with the spaghetti in squid-ink sauce.

    Cantina El Náutico

    This popular nook offers old-fashioned ambience, from the polished bar to the white linen. If you share with a friend or two, the paella de mariscos (rice and shellfish) is also practically budget friendly.

    Mariscos del Atlántico

    You might expect a bit more from the only seafood restaurant in town stocked by artisan fisherman, but there is good local ambience. It is hidden behind Club Nautico, 20m past the arches and upstairs.

    La Barra

    Fashionable but somewhat overpriced, La Barra feels like a date destination offering fussy service and a wide selection, including parrilla, thin-crust pizzas and heaping salad bowls.

    This smart, smoky café can cure your energy slump with sugar-bomb alfajores (cookie sandwiches) and specialty coffees.
