Been wanting to try this place. Came on a Friday night without reservations and we got lucky. Very cool concept. There are 2 sides to the restaurant. The bar side is more open, the camper side has lower ceilings and can get very loud. But once inside, you do not feel like you’re in Watertown.

Very attentive and professional service. The food is delicious and fresh, albeit a bit foreign. But not enough to ruin the experience. The restaurant itself is surreal. A budd-liner turned into a dining car and a covered patio. Exquisite

First time and definitely a go-back to place. Everything we ate was super. The octopus was grilled perfectly.The beef empanadas had a thin, flaky crust that was perfection. The cocktails and wine are curated and don’t miss out on the chocolate torte. Service was excellent.

I wish I were able to rate La Bodega place higher than 5 stars! Everything from the food, service, and atmosphere were beyond impeccable (and delicious!). My only regret is not taking a single picture to capture such a wonderful experience, but our hands were too busy finishing every single bite from our plates! Highly HIGHLY recommend!

What an absolutely amazing experience. The atmosphere of the restaurant is unmatched. The flavor of each dish was very unique and we found ourselves going back for more and more. The kale salad was truly memorable. Highly recommend for a special occasion, or for a night out at the beautiful bar

Great Uruguayan restaurant and most dishes are tapas size for share. Great atmosphere and great wine, cocktail menu.

I cannot say enough good things about this restaurant. Just finished dinner there and couldn’t wait any longer to give them a glowing review – If I could give them six stars, I would. Highly recommend! Phenomenal food with the service to match. The wait staff were all excellent – very attentive, kind, knowledgable and thoughtful. Great atmosphere. The prices were very fair given the quality and amount of food. We ordered the kale salad, mushrooms, grilled provolone, grilled flounder, and the chocolate tart and cheesecake for dessert. All absolutely delicious. Don’t miss out on the grilled provolone and mushrooms! Thank you, La Bodega, for a wonderful experience.
