Fodor's Review:

Though it's in something of a no-man's land at the northern tip of a neighborhood known as Belgrano Chico, Sucre has become synonymous with high-concept dining. The visual impact is immediate, from the open kitchen that stretches the length of the airy, warehouse-like space to a catwalk that's suspended next to the dramatic floor-to-ceiling wall of illuminated liquors. The menu is original and inspired, drawing in elements from Asia with dishes like a spectacular citrus-and-soy-lacedtiradito de pescado (like a fusion ceviche). Equally impressive are the duck ravioli and the beautifully designed desserts.

Tourist trap

Posted by Nich555 from London, England on 1/3/09
We went here on a Friday night and it appears to have become a complete tourist trap - almost no Spanish being spoken, most customers were English or American tourists, and the service was appalling. I think the real locals have moved on from here. Its true that it looks stunning, but it took us four hours to receive a three course meal and a few bottles of wine. When items were no longer on the menu, we were only informed when they didn't turn up (including dishes, and bottles of wine) and any request had at least a 20 minute turn around. When it did turn up the food was very good. But its not worth the wait. Go here at your peril, or only mid-week, or when you have lots of time and patience.
