There hasn’t been an update on this city in six years (!) After spending a significant amount of time in this city, I'd like to share my thoughts and give new data.
Mendoza -
I started off by really liking the place. The first day I day-gamed here, a Tuesday, I walked around near Centro, amazed at the talent I was seeing.
I ended up getting two numbers that afternoon from street approaches.
Later that evening, I was coming home from the grocery store and saw this beautiful tattooed brunette girl walk by. I ran after her with my two grocery bags and we had a great conversation, a solid connection, and exchanged numbers. So three numbers that first day. With the tattooed brunette girl, we exchanged a bunch of texts that evening. The vibe was good.
The next day, I texted the brunette and no response.
And this was Mendoza in summary.
I was here for five weeks, and banged three girls. One from online, one from nightgame, one from daygame. I got pumped up by some initial successes, but couldn’t replicate them.
-Daygame, the girls will be very nice on the approach and seem into you, but may take a while to respond to your texts, and then be cagey and difficult about meeting up. Expect flakes and needing to do restart texts. See this post
on the importance of not setting things up too far in advance.
-Nightgame, they’ll make out with you but bringing them back the same night is difficult (and then meeting up again later that week is usually futile).
-Online, I just didn’t have luck beyond the first girl.
-Social circle, I ran into the same issues of flakiness when trying to make friends with the locals here.
The talent here is incredible. It’s probably the best city I’ve been to in the world, so far. Soma breaks it down in the initial post on this thread.

Rather, the girls here are distinctly Latina: their skin is olive, their hair is dark, their eyes are brown and the sex is spicy. They’re also, by most people’s accounts, very attractive. ... *Hype Alert:* I’d personally put them up there with the Paisas of Poblado, though they are far less superficial.
But talent doesn’t mean ease. I didn’t bang any of the 8s here. One girl I banged here the 20-year old had great tits, the 23-year old had a perfect face, and the 36-year old had a large ass. But what one had, the other lacked. So while each girl was nice in her own way, I didn’t break into the top-shelf.
Daygame
Did a moderate amount of day approaches. Got at least a dozen numbers. And the girls are very friendly in person. I wrote about some of them in the post linked above. They will tell you like “I can’t meet tonight, but I definitely want to meet soon.” They will give you their full attention. But after the first day of texting, they get flaky. This felt a little like Mexico City, a lot of work to day approaches, and just no responses. But unlike Mexico City, the talent is way higher, the city is more compact, and there’s more opportunities to talk to people (higher street concentration).
In the U.S., if a girl isn’t interested in you during a day approach, she might give you her number but her body language and everything else will indicate she’s not interested. In Argentina, she’ll look and seem very interested, she’ll ask you questions, but she’ll be very cagey over text.
Like Roosh wrote in “Bang Argentina” he hasn’t exactly figured out what the right way to approach or succeed here with Argentina girls.
So daygame was frustrating.
If you go:
Soma already recommends spots. Anywhere on or around Plaza Independica. I was getting my shoes shined on the Peatonal and 9 de Julio by the talented Jesús, and the 20 minutes I was there, between 8 and 8:30 pm, there were at least four 8s who walked by alone whom I would’ve approached.
I’d also try evenings during the week, again between 7:30 and 9 pm, on Aristides.
The two dates I went on from girls I met during the day were one girl I met near Plaza Independencia around 1 pm, and the other was near San Martin and the Peatonal around 1:30pm.
Avenida Colon has a number of girls worth approach as well.
But again be prepared to go two hours talk to a bunch of girls, get a bunch of numbers, and then have them be very difficult to meet up with.
Also, girls here are not used to at all getting approached. This isn’t New York. They may be very surprised.
I didn’t spend much time in cafés, but they might be more receptive. There’s a Starbucks on the corner near Plaza España that could be worth working from.
Tinder
I again started off by really liking the place. I created a new Tinder account in my first week, got a couple matches on the first two days, and with one girl, got a date lined up for later that week.
Conversation attached.
I ended up banging her, she just turned 20. My first Tinder bang (two months of using Tinder in the States and I didn’t get a single date from it). So I was enthralled by the prospect of Tinder.
But after this girl, who I met up with one more time and banged again, I got one match every two days. By the end of three weeks, I’d swiped every girl in the entire city. Every match after the first girl, the openers would go unanswered, the conversations wouldn’t progress beyond her responding one thing.
I showed my Tinder account to two forum members, and both were surprised, maybe even couldn’t explain why that I was having such bad results.
While I came in looking forward about the prospect of Tinder, I soon soured on it’s ability to connect me to girls here.
Nightgame
Again, in my first time going to the club here, I ended up banging that night a girl from the very first table I approached.

I started chatting, two of the girls left to get more drinks, I’m talking to the remaining two, then one of them goes to get drinks with the other, then I’m one-on-one with the 23-year old.
Very feminine she was re-applying red lipstick when it was two of them because she wanted to impress me.
The 23-year old had the perfect Latina face. I can’t quite describe it, but it’s a little bit like Shakira, a little bit softer features. Long, dark black hair. Warm eyes. Red lipstick.
It was thrilling, and I wrote the
full story and all the challenge and two steps forward one step back here.
After that experience, I figured the clubs were a sure bet. So I went back to the same club the following week, and again approached a random girl standing with two of her friends, and we hit it off. Her two friends disappeared for us so that we could be alone. We ended up dancing for two hours, having a lot of fun, making out a lot. I brought her outside and we talked. I couldn’t get her to leave that night, but we exchanged numbers.
It was a pain to meet up with her, very unresponsive over text. I eventually took her on a date 9 days later, the following Tuesday, by asking her out that night. But the timing wasn’t good for her to come over. After that, she was again very unresponsive over text.
The next week, I went to the same club. After not getting anywhere beyond making out with a girl I met two weeks prior who was at the club again, I left her, and approached some random other girl, and again, her friend was very supportive of us talking. Even took a picture of the two of us unprompted, as if we were a couple. Danced a bunch with this girl but she was driving her two friends home and while she offered me a ride as well, there was no way to get her alone back to my place.
I actually met her the next day, and we walked to the park, then she came over, but she was not open. I probably shouldn’t have invited her back on Sunday, I should have just walked with her to the park, then went home on my own, and tried to set up a proper date that week. Which I did, but she flaked on that date presumably because of an emergency of one of her friends, which I half-believe.
So in conclusion:
I went to the same club three times, the first time had a one-shot one-kill approach, the next two times approached a bunch of girls, and eventually found one down to talk and dance and make-out, but pulling a girl eluded me.
I’d say if you can’t pull her, and you offer up in the club that you’ll take her on a date Monday or Tuesday, and she doesn’t show up to that, you might as well forget it.
But again, after my first success here, I figured the club would be my spot. While I did better here than in the States, my initial success couldn’t be replicated.
Social Circle
One Saturday night I walked up Aristides and just approached a set of two girls and one guy to talk with them and ask,
“Excuse me, I have a question. What are some good bars you like around here?”
They gave me some thoughts, and we got into talking. I basically kept rambling until after five minutes the dude said, “hey…do you want to join us?”
I sat with them for about 45 minutes. They were all very friendly. I don’t think there are many Americans, and I don’t think there are many Americans who speak Spanish. So everyone here was very, very nice to me for being those two things.
We vibed well, then they invited me to a party on Wednesday (at Club Sodeado). When I checked in with the dude again on Wednesday he said he could no longer go. Then a few days later hit him up to see what was up, but never heard much.
So that was my experience trying to break into the social circle. They were students, and I figured that might be a good bet to join their group one night, or go to a pre-game with them and meet people that way. But nothing there.
Here are some recommendations
Saturday Grita Silenco – This is the club I went to three Saturdays in a row. It’s a wide open outdoor club with a roof. Brings a good mix of people, and there are no shortage of girls. It’s a $10 taxi ride from Centro, and cover is $12. You can get on a list and the cover is a little cheaper. I got there the first night around 12:30am. That’s a good time to arrive, because you can approach groups and it isn’t that loud yet. They clear tables and it gets really busy (but then harder to approach) at 2 am.
Other clubs in the Chacras area that were recommended to me were Nikki (more posh).
Club Sodeado Wednesday nights, late (starting around midnight)- not good for pulling, this is the deep house late night club. More hipster crowd. I met some very friendly people, tried Fernet, so you might use this if you're trying to make new friends.
Getting out of the city
Got connected through my Airbnb host to a tour company that did a Friday day-trip out of the city. We did hiking, rappelling down 100-foot cliff faces, and hanging out in a hot springs called Termas de Cachuetas. It’s a great getaway spot, if you don’t have a car, many tour companies organize transportation to and from there. I had a blast, and strongly recommend it.
I also did a wine tour but that was led by my roommate who worked at a winery. Again, many tour companies lead wine tours. You could just go into any random tour company office in downtown and they’ll connect you to wine tours.
There’s also the dam by Potrerillos which is where people go to go swimming on Sundays. I didn’t go, but I imagine this is groups of friends, so I’m not sure how well you’d game here.
If you do go, I have contact information for all this so I can link you up.
Food- I’m not a big foodie, but other tourists I met here say that the meat is some of the best in the world. I assume that’s true across Argentina. Barbecue (asado) is a big thing here. Otherwise, Argentinians eat a lot of pasta, pizza, and french fries, but don’t worry, they’re not fat like in America.
Aristides- this is a street with a lot of bars/restaurants. There is talent here of all ages, sitting outside at the tables every night of the week. But these are all tables outside. There are no “stand up and mingle bars”, at least none that I found. It’s definitely a challenge and takes some deft maneuvering for the solo player to approach a table like this at these bar/restaurants. That’s why having someone else with you who knows how to talk to girls could be very helpful here.
Cafés- I didn’t go to many, but in retrospect, maybe I should have. With not a lot of luck approaching girls on the street, I might have done better approaching girls in cafes.
University- UNCUYO wasn’t in session during my stay. School here runs March to November (remember that their summer here is December, January, February) but that could be worth checking out.
Conclusion
The only two daygame approaches that led to a date, one was with a girl who just moved to the city 3 days prior from another part of the province, and was staring college, and wanted to study English (she was 19). So we met for a first date, but not a great vibe, so I didn’t see her again. The other one, I later found out, was recently divorced basically hadn’t really been on a date in 6 months, and worked a job 7 days a week.
So in both cases, there was some special circumstance that made her particularly interested in meeting up. It's a poor reflection of my current game if the ordinary girls aren’t meeting up, and I need girls to be in extraordinary circumstances to meet up on a date.
I was here for five weeks, and banged 3 girls. Out of the three I banged here, one had a great face, one had great tits, and one had a great ass. But what one girl had, the other didn’t. So while each girl had something for me, none had it all. I’m leaving Mendoza with some great memories, but not with the enthusiasm I had in a place where I slayed like Playa del Carmen. Still, it’s a good spot, and from the challenges players face dealing with women in Buenos Aires and Cordoba, I’d still recommend Mendoza.
