I brought my partner here last night for his birthday and we enjoyed our 3 hour dining experience. The staff were attentive and spoke very good English. They had good knowledge of the menu ingredients and their connection to Argentina. I was impressed with the extensive list of Argentinean wines on offer by the bottle and was also appreciative that there was more than just one red/white to choose from by the glass (whilst my partner enjoyed his Cerveza). We enjoyed the food and loved the presentation but unfortunately we had experienced an exceptional steak elsewhere in Mendoza. Additionally, we feel the Cachapa dish was overly generous, which may have also affected our enjoyment of the steak - hence the 4 star rating. Overall, we enjoyed our experience, so I've given a 5-star rating. For the same level back home, we would be paying significantly more. Thanks, Azafran, for the mini chocolate tart and bubbles at the end - was a lovely touch for the birthday boy!

Went on Sep/2025. Heard from Azafrán by the Michelin website. Food, service and atmosphere on point. Great wine pairing and storytelling, had an amazing time with my friends.

Azafrán in Mendoza is nothing short of a revelation. In a city known for its wine and culinary prowess, this restaurant stands above the rest—not just as a highlight of the trip, but possibly as one of the best meals we’ve ever had. And we don’t say that lightly. The experience is centered around a single fixed menu, and what a parade it is. Each course arrives with that rare mix of elegance and surprise—flavors you’d never expect to belong together, fitting seamlessly, brilliantly. Every dish felt like its own little universe, thoughtfully composed, beautifully plated, and layered with creativity and restraint. Not once did the menu stumble or feel like it was trying too hard. It just worked—again and again. We highly recommend the wine pairing, though be warned: it’s a lot of wine. But what an experience. Each pour is expertly matched and generously served, introducing you to regional varietals you may never have encountered otherwise. The pairings don’t just complement the food—they elevate it, course after course. The space is intimate and stylish, the service polished yet relaxed. The staff is warm, intuitive, and incredibly well trained. And here’s the kicker: the value is nearly impossible to comprehend. This caliber of cuisine, service, and wine would be unattainable in the U.S.—not because it’s too expensive, but because this level of craft and hospitality simply doesn’t exist at any price. In Europe, it would cost four times as much. Azafrán is that rare dining experience where every element—food, wine, service, setting—aligns perfectly. If you’re in Mendoza, it’s not just a recommendation. It’s a must.

Thank god we tried Azafran. It was very great evening and experience. The restaurant met all the expectations and criteria. Money valued 100% below some photos of our journey to Mendoza flavours. Service impeccable. Well done girls (can’t remember the names).

Both food and service are outstanding! I would say the price (180$ for the set menus and 15$ per wine glass) is not justified at all though! I have been to multiple 1 & 2 star restaurants in European and central/ South America. countries that offered service and culinary experience more elevated for lower prices ….. So for South America and what is being offered , I would say the price makes no sense to me
