"The Buenos Aires golden hour is especially lovely in Casa Cavia’s inner garden of the century-old aristocratic estate, where Julieta Caruso crafts seasonal dishes from breakfast to dinner; I enjoy the lounge’s contemporary take on the property’s classic architecture but most relish sitting in the rear garden by the fountain for afternoon tea, choosing treats such as a lemon curd tart with quince and sugared almonds, puff pastry filled with cream and caramelized apples, or the creamy vanilla cake with rich chocolate mousse and caramel." - Guía MICHELIN
"If we were to look for an expression that defines the culinary philosophy of this restaurant occupying an attractive mansion in the Palermo Chico district, it would be “loyalty to local ingredients”. Casa Cavia boasts an elegantly classic interior which combines with the contemporary decor, but what is particularly striking here is the delightful terrace to the rear (embellished with a water feature in the middle) that has become a trendy setting where people come to eat but also to be seen. The chef at the helm, Julieta Caruso, showcases her cuisine on a concise contemporary-style à la carte where vegetables play a predominant role in dishes that are seemingly simply prepared but based around the very best ingredients. Her vegetarian recipes, which take pride of place here, are accompanied by others featuring fish and meat, such as grilled fish of the day, roasted prawns, marinated beef ribs etc." - Michelin Inspector
"Located opposite a tree-lined park, stands this old two-storey property with an immaculate white façade. Casa Cavia, one of the city’s most beautiful dining spots." - The MICHELIN Guide
"A historic mansion with a restaurant, bar, café, florist, and publishing house, offering cuisine by chef Julieta Caruso." - The MICHELIN Guide
"A restaurant located within the Casa Cavia cultural-and-retail complex, celebrated for an artistic, seasonally driven menu and cocktails, an interior inspired by 1920s cafés with white marble and brass details, and a breakfast offering of dulce de leche baked goods that is a satisfying fallback when dinner reservations are scarce." - Megan Wood Megan Wood Megan Wood is a hotel and travel expert.
