Ah, so nice! I have…read morebeen to this restaurant three times now and find it one of the best in the Valparaiso/Viña Del Mar. Like every lunch I have had here, we open with a Pisco Sour and then some small plates. But here both of these are above the norm. The wall art showing historical Valparaiso, many photographs of famous peoples and other wall art make the atmosphere interesting. Service is excellent but nothing matches the food here. I had the sea bass on my last trip. It was served on a bed of what I will call puréed hominy but could have been anything. It was spectacular. Thank the Lord I cannot tell you how good their desserts are because the food already has me worried about my waistline!

So - making a reservation is strongly encouraged, as well as bringing a cover if you plan to seat on the open deck (they provide covers upon request!). As for the food, all the "producto di mare" was absolutely great. For dessert, I recommend their sampler. Great ambience. Delicious food choices. Professional service. There is no way to go wrong with this place. PS: the 4 starts instead of 5 is because of the bad locations of bathrooms for the elderly or people with physical dissections.

If you don't like fish they have fresh fish and chips or if you love the sea like me they have a whopping plate of fresh raw seafood. Your best chance for parking is about a block away and it's paid parking. The server was great in helping us navigate the menu and find the right thing for each person. The restaurant is large which allows for bigger groups but also small intimate gatherings.

We also had pisco sour, prepared right there, pretty good. Place is nice, very unassuming and cozy. We had a large group (13) and the owner was very nice, he was very focused on giving us a good time and service. The servers were very nice and tried their best. The only low point was that the servers don't know how to serve well, they had the right attitude so with just a little bit of coaching they will do very well.

Spend at least an hour there. Walk to the Bridge of Wishes (Deseos). If you're lucky you'll see a sea lion sunning on the beach. But don't get lured into a restaurant there. Put "Los Duendes Restaurant"' on your GPS and follow a few back roads to Los Duendes. We love this restaurant and inside the decor is themed around elves (duendes)!. Comfortable seating indoors and outdoors. We always order their Machas à la Parmesana (razor clams). The owner, Emilio, greeted us and when we asked, he said they had fresh Machas à la Parmesana although the big ones were due in on Friday. Oh well, they weren't big but they were delicious. The menu is extensive. Something to please everyone! Claudio, our waiter, added to the charm here. We followed his recommendation and ordered Congrio à la Plancha, the most moist grilled fish. I'm sure it would have been delicious fried too but we try to eat healthy. With the fish I chose my favorite. "Puré Rústica," mashed potatoes with caramelized onions, mushrooms, 0lives and i forget what else was in it The sweetness from the onions blows me away. For dessert we had un café helado, coffee with ice cream. Great meal, great atmosphere, great attention. We will be back for sure. A relative has a condo in nearby Cau Cau Well worth the visit. A hidden gem!!

First we had an outstanding waiter by the name of George. George gave us his recommendations as my wife and I wanted true Chilean Seafood. First we started with the seasoned garlic with spices shrimp. These were based on butter and chili. This was an excellent appetizer to start. We then ordered the Chilean Sea Bass with a tomato sauce and it did not disappoint. If you are in the area I would highly recommend this restaurant for the service and food!

This review is for the restaurant only. Cap Ducal is a hotel and restaurant from 1936 built to…read moreresemble an ocean liner. It's that cool looking building I've driven by for 40 years and always said, "One of these days, I must go in and check it out" . Yesterday was that day, Thursday 8/15, which is a religious and civic holiday in Chile. We rolled in about 14:30 for lunch. There is a parking lot, which is attended by your typical Chilean street parker who points to a spot, guides you in, offers to wash your car and lives off tips. Outside there is a sign, a bit faded, that shows some of the dishes with pictures. (useful and accurate enough) The receptionist asked if we had a reservation, we did not, informed us there were two tables available, pointed them out, and asked which table we wanted. Old school Chilean waitstaff was fairly prompt, got our drinks out with small tapas (complementary) , took our orders and then brought out the bread. Our food was out pretty quick. I had the Congrio Cap Ducal, which the menu says is griddled conger fish with an erizo sauce with shellfish. The sauce was good. It didn't have overpowering sea urchin. Actually, I would have never guessed it had sea urchin. Fabulous dish. Our threesome had 3 main courses, 2 pisco sours and a cherimoya juice, a half bottle of wine and 1 desert for 97,000 plus tip, so USD 35-40 per person without a starter. On the way out the receptionist was not in front but in the hotel office, so I assume the restaurant does a lunch shift and a dinner shift and closes the restaurant in between. The building is old, perhaps dated but that is the point. If you updated it you ruin it. Lots of old photos and maritime memorabilia, think trans Atlantic steamer of the early 20th century, lots of wood and brass. The posted hotel prices were like USD 110 per night, pretty modest for a seaside hotel. Come for the history, stay for a meal.

Not sure if this was something that the owners tried to play off as part of the decor but it was a turn off for my experience. Buuut again as mentioned the portions were large and the food was fresh which is more important than a bit of dust! The staff that attended my table was pretty nice and made sure all our orders were right. We were a large table (7 of us) and we didn't have any issues with our meals.
