Lovely food, beautiful lakeside location, attentive service - this place really is in a league of its own, and in a country with as many great restaurants in as Argentina, that is really saying something. Hugely recommended.

I only had two days in Bariloche and felt like I had to go to Butterfly given the reviews, even though it was an hour drive from my hotel (my taxi driver was a happy man!). Based on my global gastronomic experience (which includes michelin and non-michelin), I will rate Butterfly as good overall. I appreciate the fact that they... More

Your trip to Bariloche is not complete unless you visit Butterfly! I visited Butterfly with my mom and 23 year old sister in December. We are not particularly big eaters and we are fairly picky--I am vegetarian and gluten free and the chef could not have been more accommodating. I have eaten at many Michelin Star restaurants around the world... More

This is a small restaurant with a spectacular position on a quiet side-track off the main road along Lago Nahuel Huapi about 7.5 km west of Bariloche - I mention this as it is not easy to find if you are making your own way there! We were staying no more than a couple of hundred yards away and we... More

We just had to say that I have celiac and I got the best dinner ever. The chef came to talk to us and was lovely( and so... More

it was like being in a parallel universe. We read all of the glowing reviews and went to Butterfly expecting a wonderful experience. Having small and cute portions served on special plates does not make a gourmet experience. First, we were offered the 7 course tasting menu without being told the price. We were told the price of wine pairings... More

My wife and I had our final dinner of our Honeymoon at Butterfly and it was by far the best food and dinner experience of the trip. The 7 course dinner was delicious and the wine pairing was spot on. The service was excellent and with the restaurant only having 5-6 tables, the three owners provide individual attention to every... More

Putting things in perspective: We're a couple in their 30's, living in NYC, who eat/drink out all the time. We traveled to Bariloche for 3 nights, the first of which we spent at Butterfly. The meal was delicious all around with a great wine pairing!! It was exactly what we were looking for and honestly the best dinner experience we... More

As Sebastian told us himself, he and Edward worry when people write that they had their best meal ever at Butterfly and I understand that (pressure!) but it really was. 6 weeks later I’m writing this review and I can still remember ever tiny part of the meal. My boyfriend treated me to the 7 course tasting menu for my... More
