Located at kilometre 17.900 of Avenida Bustillo, in the Villa Campanario area, Chiado is a gastronomic offering that combines international cuisine with a strong gourmet identity. The venue operates outside Bariloche’s urban centre, providing a quiet setting where the architecture and landscape come together through large windows and a deck overlooking the lake. The character of the place is defined by a retro aesthetic, furnished with antique objects and collectibles that give it a distinctive personality.

Gastronomic offering and specialities

The restaurant’s menu is characterised by its versatility, bringing together regional and international flavours. Among its standout preparations are dishes featuring ingredients such as pollock over spiced polenta and a sautéed mushroom dish with ginger and white wine. The kitchen also explores surf-and-turf options, including moules marinière and wonton dumplings filled with prawns in a lime and ginger sauce, alongside house-made pastas such as pappardelle with rabbit ragout in a pinot noir reduction.

Artisanal pastry is a cornerstone of the offering. The dessert selection is complemented by a curated range of teas that takes guests on a sensory journey across different regions of the world; loose-leaf teas are sourced from countries including Poland, Bulgaria, Pakistan, China, Egypt, Belgium, Italy, and South Africa, served in delicate antique porcelain cups. This combination of global flavours and artisanal techniques defines the house’s profile.

Atmosphere and experience in the surroundings

The service at Chiado is designed for different moments of the day, from lunch to afternoon tea, allowing for an unhurried pause in front of the natural landscape. The indoor dining room has an intimate atmosphere decorated with toys and collectible pieces, while the terrace over the lake offers a different experience under the natural shade of the plants. The layout of the venue, with its deck and open spaces, is intended to connect visitors with the Campanario area’s surroundings. It is a space that accommodates both a full meal and a break to enjoy smoothies, natural juices, or afternoon tea, integrating gastronomy with the contemplation of the Patagonian landscape.
