Diners rave about Adobe Cocina Regional, praising its delicious local cuisine, especially the empanadas and the 'tabla' sampler. The spectacular service and the unique ambiance of dining in a historic building on the main square are also frequently highlighted.

"Amazing local restaurant situated on the first floor in a historic building looking out over the main square of Salta. The waiter was very friendly with very personal service. Food was amazing. The 4 pepper steak was the best steak I have had in my entire life. The meat was juicy and tender, and the sauce was excellent. The vegetarian pasta was nothing special, but still good. Overall a great place to eat."

"Food is ok but the service is great!
You are paying more for the location and view. We got there just after opening so we could get a seat on the balcony to the square.
We shared the board for 2 which was a lot of food! It did allow us to try loads of different things."
Raquel Matos
"We were disappointed with our visit.
First,we were misinformed about the prices, each floor had a different price range, which wasn’t made clear to us.
There was live music, and while the musician was good, it was so loud that we couldn’t hear each other speak, which made the atmosphere uncomfortable.
The service was very slow. One of our orders took more than 40 minutes, and we ended up canceling it. The same delay happened when we asked for the check.
Unfortunately, the food didn’t make up for it. The French fries were undercooked, and the lasagna had way too much meat, which threw off the balance.We expected more and left feeling disappointed."
