We had a great dinner, all seafood. The waiter suggested us about the plates and the wine and both suggestions were just perfect. Would go back again. More

I went here twice with friends and both times the service was impeccable and the food delicious! The steak was incredibly tender and flavorful and the next day the seafood I ordered was just a delicious. The house wine (vino tinto) was excellent as well. What I loved best about this place was ambiance and professional service. More

We were promised a superb dinner, but it was just OK. The staff was very nice, but the fish did not look fresh, and it was over cooked, in my opinion. The place is worth the visit, but are better places for eating fish in Puerto Madryn. More

We went here based on the glowing reviews and the recommendation of our tour guide. What a disappointment! We each ordered fish, white salmon with lemon butter sauce and sole with basque sauce. They both arrived swimming in a thin sauce. The fish were rolled up. The sole had quite a few bones and at least one if not more... More

We had heard that this was the best seafood place in town. I had rabo (squid), my husband had langostino (big shrimp), and our friend had a rice with seafood and it was all overcooked, dry and chewy. No complaints about our service as our waiter was attentive. More

We had heard so many good things about El Nautico, but we were extremely dissapointed with everything about the restaurant. The Food - I ordered the white salmon... That was a mistake. It was overcooked and so dry that it felt like I was eating chalk. My wifes pasta was totally unremarkable. We started with calamari, which was fine, but... More
