torreon del monje

We went for lunch and coffee here. Bad food all around. Also, the coffee is very bad here and not worth purchasing, despite the great view of the city and the ocean from here.Find another placer to eat and have your coffee. up and down the beach road are many places with better offerings and views that are just as good as here.

Nice views from the sea/ beach.Arrived there around 18:30, but they were closing. The staff weren't too good.A place like that should be more flexible with the times... It was end of november, already warm, no excuses for the early closing.

At this restaurant, they do not accept credit cards or debit cards, so make sure to bring your cash. The name is Torreon del Monje ("El Torreon", in everyday conversations), but the bill/ticket says "Ariel Distribuidora Argentina de Aliment". The address, on the bill/ticket, says "Paseo de Galindes", and the street is named "Paseo Jesús de Galindez". Quite a welcome.The food is OK, and the view, from the tables at the terrace, is fine. There are no waiting lists so open your eyes and wait for a table to be emptied and make a plunge. Staff does its best. Restrooms are not fit for humans.The prices are convenient. The atmosphere/conversations that can be overheard are vulgar. Put on your headphones and listen to your own music.

I went to a big event there on the weekend of October, 12th.The place was overcrowded and very warm. Drinks were too expensive and the place to leave your bags or coats (apart from costing $30 each object), was super bad organized-all clothes messed up in a big table-.To make things worse, that room collapsed of people who wanted their coats or bags, at the end of the party and my friends and I were injured because boys and girls made pressure to be the first one to pick them up.

food is good, great location and view, street parking kinda tough sometimes depending on the day of the week and season; pretty much can't go wrong here, bring your camera, there is also some history behind the scenes, ask and find out, tye had a tattoo convention there I went to last year as well as other events

The incredibly beautiful caffe has a gigantic balcony facing the sea.Its an stunning view.And great coffee and pastries....

Very nice location with à beautiful view over Mar del Plata and the sea. Nice decorated and vet friendly staff and the food was also good.

the building is beautiful, you just notice it when you see it for the first time. The bridge to get to it is also beautiful in the distance. When you get there sadly it looks dirty, old and like noone takes care of it. Sad because it has a great terrace to the sea and lot of space to use for tourists and locals.

Torreon del Monje is a very nice building (remained me a castle tower) , with a beautiful view. Great for tea time or drink something. I beleive they also serve dinner.

Beautiful waterfront location....with an equally exquisite renovation. Very good food, a bit expensive, but worth the experience. We would return.

The Torreón del Monje, a symbol of Mar del Plata, is a beautiful, historic building that shouldn't be missed. The terrace offers a fantastic view of the surrounding beaches and lots of photo opportunities; however, this is where the charm of the Torreón ends. The food was overpriced and quite average, and the attention of the wait staff was terrible. Our lunch platters took forever to arrive even though the restaurant didn't appear to be very crowded. Go for a cup of coffee and the view, but skip the rest of the menu.

Edificio emblematico de la ciudad por su excelente ubicacion, con una confiteria muy linda para disfrutar tanto de dia como de noche.

muy bueno para ir a comer y disfrutar de las odaliscas y del mar, en temporada se suele llenar, tratar de ir temprano

Gran edificio arquitectónico de la ciudad, es un icono, vale la pena pasar para verlo, pero no dedicarle mucho tiempo, el resto del lugar más que normal...

Muy venido a menos. Se ve que hace tiempo que no invierten en sillas , mesas ,etc.Ademas a la hora más linda para sentarse en la terraza , la cierran y tenes que ir adentro. Pensarlo antes de ir.
