Embracing many aspects of Mendoza from terroir right down to the hard-carved wooden teaspoons, the lunchtime experience at Zonda—Bodega Lagarde’s Michelin-starred restaurant—is refreshing. Starting in the olive groves, the immersive orchard-to-table experience means you have to work, but only a little, picking salad leaves and herbs for your lunch. The nine-course regional tasting menu is paired with gems dating back to the 1980s selected from the cellar.
Partners in life and in the kitchen, Mariano and Florencia traveled the world working in restaurants. They’ve brought that experience to their own intimate eatery, which offers a sophisticated tasting menu. The space may be small (it sits only 18 people), but you can expect delightful culinary creations with consistently appealing flavors and presentation. Staff can recommend wines by the glass or bottle to match the seasonally changing eight- or 11-course menus. In 2023, the restaurant was awarded a Michelin star.
