About Mengano

Chef Facundo Kelemen has taken classic dishes and upgraded the traditional Argentine bodegón experience of one-bite beef empanadas, lamb tartare and steak sandwiches, creating a jolly and relaxed restaurant in Mengano that should get more press. Take a stool at the kitchen counter, enjoy the bustle of the main salon or book the private dining room.

Sommelier Alfredo Mesa works closely with owner André Parisier, who has a substantial private wine collection, to create an Argentine-driven list of around 50 labels, with gems that they both enjoy (which may include the likes of Château Lafite Rothschild 2017 or Otronia Chardonnay 2020).
