El Viejo Bar - Ushuaia

We had to reserve a table here as it was so busy. Some of our party had king crab mains and others had salmon. All nicely cooked and presented. Decent wine list too. Small but buzzy restaurant. We were the last to leave...

Had meals here one was very good the other very average. I think the food (and service) vary greatly. DO ASK what's fresh before you decide to eat there!! We saw them bringing frozen fish and crab legs in since they...were apparently OUT OF the fresh!!!!!!!!!!!! Check before you eat!

By the water front, near the sunken ship. So, very nice location. Parking on the street, or right in front, a large public parking area. In Ushuaia there are many places that you will see exhibiting king crabs in an aquarium, but, to me this...is one of the best genuine places. Go early, because this place tends to get full very quickly. The food is nice, staff is nice, and the Crab is nice!!!

If you cannot stand watching animals die, do not go there. However, if you do not feel bothered, you can choose your own centolla and taste the juicy meat after cracking its legs. It is quite an experience.

Simple restaraunt, with tank filled with live King Crabs , pick your own out of the tank boiled served with rice salad we choose to have a mixed seafood plate for an extra pesos , the crab is delivered to your table...with a pair of scissors to cut up your crab ,, yum yum
