What Travellers Say
Reviews Summary
Restaurant Refinería offers a mixed bag of experiences. While many praise the superb food, especially the steaks and extensive wine list, and enjoy the pleasant atmosphere, some diners have encountered issues with food quality and service. Consistency appears to be a concern for some patrons.
"The place is great. Service too. We even had a personal recommendation on the menu from the owner. The pork, the appetizers and the desert were all great. Yet, the tomahawk beef was quite raw. Make sure you are clear when you order."
Илија Господинов
"Been here a few times on visits to Rosario since 2019. Lately, quality in both food prep and meats (freshness?) seems to have decreased. Had the vacio, which was mostly fat and also tasted old. Still a decent local choice, but with limits."
Thomas Fenrich
"Not the quality you would expect for the price and the reputation. Our plates were cold, and the food wasn't anything out of the ordinary. I ordered the meat well done but it was medium well at the best. They have an extensive wine list, but with some important missing like "Gran Enemigo" and others.
Next time I'm going to be in town I am going to give it another try, maybe this night wasn't the best opportunity to dine here. The service was very good."

Es una vieja casona, con un ambiente agradable, cocina de autor, parilla, pastas y una amplia carta de vinos. No es precisamente un lugar económico pero vale la pena el precio para probar platos poco convencionales como langostinos grillados con mayonesa de lima y crocante de boniato; mollejas con laca cítrica, kale y papines; chateaubriand de lomo con crema de papa y ajo negro; ravioli de hongos y mozzarella con manteca de hierbas; o cavatelli con albóndigas de cordero. Entre sus postres, hay opciones como tiramisú, mousse de chocolate amargo, frutas frescas y oliva, strudell de pera especiado con helado o flan de coco con salsa de dulce de leche.
