Cheapest Pizzerias in Mendoza
Mendoza is Argentina's wine capital, set against the Andes, and its pizza is pure bodegón tradition. The microcentro built its name on tall Argentine al molde, thick discs heavy with muzzarella served fast at long counters.
Two historic halls on and around Avenida Lavalle have anchored the downtown scene for decades, packed with families most nights.
More recently, certified Neapolitan kitchens have arrived, wood ovens running hot and fast for a thin, blistered rim, a different animal from the pan pizza downtown.
The densest pizza blocks are in the Ciudad microcentro and neighboring Godoy Cruz. Follow it with a local wine or the traditional glass of moscato.
