Osadía de Crear

Top choice in Mendoza & the Central Andes


Osadia's five-course wine-paired lunch is one of the area's best, with beautifully presented dishes in portion sizes that won't bust your gut. Part of the Susana Balbo winery (whose namesake is the first female Argentine winemaker, and which is known for its torrontés whites), the restaurant is elegantly designed with rustic features and mountain views.

Only a few steps away on the same property is Espacio CRIOS, a cool, casual cafe with finger food in a patio and garden setting.
