"This is a place for ice cream, not the creamy American kind but Italian gelato style. Remember when Häagen-Dazs came out with a new dulce de leche flavor? Yeah, they got that idea from the ice cream parlors of Buenos Aires. Now go try the real deal here."

"The 10 best artisan ice-cream shops at the moment in Buenos Aires: Rapanui - Rapanui continues to grow and maintains the refined style in its creations. Some of its delights are the Ice Cream a la Llama in cornet with cover of flambéed meringue; the Passion Fruit with Kiwi and the delicate Dulce de Leche with goat's milk. Other delicacies to highlight are the Marroc Ice Cream and, for the more sophisticated, the Chocolate with 80% cocoa."

Catherine Valero

"Rapanui – This is by far the best tasting gelato in Buenos Aires! There are a few different locations but if you are heading to the Recoleta Cemetery, take a 2 min walk to Rapanui. It’s so worth it!"

Frugal Buenos Aires

"I should mention that I never met a Rapanui ice cream that didn’t make my heart skip a beat. So why is this my Feature of the Week-er? Because this place is cheaper (and better) than the most well known ice cream shops in Argentina."

Daniel Whelden

"Based out of Bariloche this heladeria has remained in business for nearly a century, and remains a favorite for both locals and tourists in Argentina with a sweet tooth. Famous for their chocolate and raspberry flavors, it’s no surprise that this ice cream parlor was featured in a National Geographic Channel episode about Bariloche-based delicacies."

Catherine Quiroga

"Originally famous for its artisanal chocolates, this Patagonian parlor has quickly gained recognition for its ice cream. Their ice cream is as smooth and sumptuous as it possibly gets. But it is definitely the Cacao based flavors that have taken this ice cream shop to our Top, as all of the recipes include actual bits of the house’s most finest chocolates."
