For anyone who appreciates the finer things in life, the fine-foods gift shop and restaurant in Maipú is a must visit. A large house built in 1888 amongst sweeping views of the Mendoza region and the Andes Mountains, the casona itself is notable. Using only food grown on the company’s surrounding land, it offers some of the best food and products in the Mendoza region. Stop by to pick up a gift for yourself or a loved one, and be sure to stay for a meal. The easiest way to reach it is by car, though you can access and eat at the casona as part of the Bikes and Wines – Maipú tour. For $35 pesos (about $11.60US) you get a three-course meal that includes one of the better steaks you’ll have in Argentina, a salad and a delicious dessert. Combined with the scenery, the meal is among the more unforgettable experiences you can have in Mendoza. Reservations are recommended. Credit cards accepted.

Traveler Reviews of Almacen del Sur Delicatessen and Restaurant

Great place!

I had the 5 course menu. It was excellent.

Wonderful meal in an outstanding atmosphere

Delicious food and either a homey dining room or pleasant patio make this a truly unique dining experience. It can be hard to get to - we rented a car - but you should try to make it if possible. I'll definitely stop in the next time I'm in Mendoza.
