Puerto Iguazú
Offering a compact interior and pleasant balcony terrace, this is more informal than most of this strip and offers significant value. Service comes with a smile; abundant meat or fish plates with innovative sauces, and colorful salads, make for pleasant dining. While prices for mains are similar to elsewhere, it often has specials and the pastas dishes are well priced.
Given that the place is named after a wine bottle (demijohn), the wine list is mediocre.
