Fodor's Expert Review Azafrán

This character-filled spot is more than just a restaurant: grocery shelves are stocked with local olive oils, smoked meats, and homemade jams, and more than 80 wineries are represented in the wine shop, where an old press has been converted into a tasting table. Offering a welcome break from parrilla fare, the two short tasting menus give traditional Argentine ingredients a creative twist. Excellent value in the heart of Mendoza city.
