La Rueda, Argentine restaurant in Puerto Iguazú, Argentina.
La Rueda is a restaurant in Puerto Iguazú designed with glazed brick floors, thatched roofs, and murals featuring regional art throughout its rooms. The interior spaces display careful attention to local artistic traditions and rural heritage.
It began in 1975 when the Bauza family received a cartwheel as a gift upon arriving near Iguazu Falls. They chose this object as the name for their new dining place.
The food and design reflect how Guarani communities and early settlers shaped the region's traditions. These influences appear in both the dishes served and the way the space is decorated.
Dining hours vary depending on the day of the week, so it helps to check ahead before visiting. The restaurant offers both lunch and dinner services, but at different times throughout the week.
Artist Hans Hachen created low relief murals depicting scenes from Guarani mythology built directly into the walls. These artistic details are woven into the building itself rather than added separately.
