La Embajada - Artisan Argentinian Cuisine

The salad was amazing. The short ribs were exquisite. The asparagus was unbelievable. The sangria was delicious. And the beignets? OMG!!!!!! UPDATE 4/3: We returned and it was just as amazing. This is now our favorite restaurant and one of the best in Dayton!

First visit to LaEmbajafa. The decor is very inviting and feels a bit like home.
Started with an appetizer, Arancini. This is a fried rice ball served on a bed of tomato based sauce. These were very good. My entree was the Lamb Jollaf. West Frican rice with pieces of lamb served in a bowl. This dish was absolutely delicious! For dessert, we ordered Beignets Criollas. Fried puff pastry served with cream and blackberries. A great dish to finish our meal with a cup of coffee!
At this time, they only serve wine and non-alcoholic beer. They are hoping to have their liquor license soon.
There is a cooler/freezer where you can purchase food items prepared for you that you can take home and prepare to eat.
There was a table behind us that had ordered the Royal High Tea. A beautiful presentation! This is a reservation only service. See the menu page for more information on this service.
There is a lot to choose from the menu. A few items on the kids' menu. Family friendly.
It took us close to an hour to drive to the restaurant, and we will do it again.

I have eaten in many, many restaurants in seven different countries, this is definitely in my top 5 dining experiences. Our server Marta was exceptional,trust anything she recommends. The owner came out to deal with an insulting "karen" and did so in a graceful manner. She came to my table and spoke for a bit, making us feel like we have known her forever. The people here are amazing, the food is Michelin star quality. It is upscale yet cozy and welcoming. A true gem in Dayton. I could not recommend it more, beat restaurant in Dayton bar none.

Everything from the food to the service was excellent. The owner is part of the regular staff and tends to every customer as if they are good friends. I ordered 6 different empanadas and enjoyed every single one. The ambiance is tasteful and warm. Nice enough for a great date night, casual enough for a family dinner. Over all great experience.

We went for high tea and the owner curated a vegetarian menu for us, and everything was amazing! The tea, champagne, and everything we ate was delicious. We will definitely do this again. If you are vegetarian though, make sure you call ahead or email to talk to them about it. This was a special menu they did just for us, not something that's on their regular menu.

Vegetarian options: Email or call them to ask about a vegetarian menu. They asked about specific restrictions (some items they came up with were vegan, some vegetarian etc.)
