This is a great restaurant in a fun part of Santiago…read more I have been enjoying pisco cocktails throughout Chile, and the cocktails here were fantastic. Over a couple of visits I was able to try: La Enjundia De Diablo, Cotrabando, Temporada, and Pisco is in the air. Truthfully the first two were preferred, more spicy than sweet. The second two were like smoothies with alcohol-also delicious, just hot differently. They were well presented and fabulous. For meals we had the steak and chimichurri, good if you love a big steak- a little too much for us. The beef and lentils were delicious and perfect for a cold winter evening. The next meals we tried were the cuttlefish croquettes which were very good, like a Japanese octopus ball. Great sauces. Then the fish of the day-Hake- with whipped potatoes(I think) and capers with veggies-outstanding. We also had a very good, filling, fish sandwich. I liked the sweet potatoes, a unique touch. The service was attentive without overdoing it. The first night when we came in everyone said hello, which made us feel very welcome. The atmosphere was fun, hipster, and inviting. So glad our hotel was nearby, couldn't have asked for a better restaurant to be near.

For a very reasonable price, you also get a pisco sour, water/soda/wine, an appetizer (fried cauliflower with beets), and coffee. The pisco sour was very refreshing and tart.

Ambiance is really cute inside and they have nice outdoor seating as well.

Everything here was delicious, and the portions were very generous in size. I ended up taking half of a sandwich to go. The appetizer with potato puree, avocado, egg, and shrimp in a stack was surprisingly a favorite. My husband remarked it was the kind of unexpected tropical dish he had hoped to find during our travels in South America.

Service is tip notch...staff makes honest suggestions, they warned me about size of certain dishes. Other suggestions were detailed on food ingredients and flavors. The best thing is the variety of new cuisine dishes along with traditional Peruvian plates with slight Gaston twist. So far have tasted many things on menu and nothing has been short of great. It is not a low price place but not ultra expensive for the quality and portion size you get. I'll continue to visit any chance I get and country I see them!

By far my favorite Peruvian restaurant. I have been to many different Peruvian restaurants in…read moreSantiago and this is hands down my favorite. More reason to back my choice: I live with a picky Peruvian and after years of trying new places, this has become our go-to spot. I recommend coming hungry and ordering the "ceviche de pescado" to start and then a main dish. My favorite is the "chicharron de pescado" it is a Peruvian take on fish and chips (except they serve it with boiled potatoes). If you have read any of my other reviews you will know how much I love french fries that is why I'll let you in on a little secret: any dish that comes with boiled potatoes you can ask to switch them for french fries! You're welcome.

The first time I went to a Norky's was when I was in Lima. My partner, who is Peruvian, had said it…read morewas one of his favorite places to get barbecued chicken (peruvian style). During that trip, we must have gone to a Norkys at least 10 times - not only in Lima, but when we went north as well (forget about ceviche on the beach...he wanted Norkey's). 3 years have passed and I am in Santiago shopping for a present for my partner's birthday when I see a familiar sign - it's Norky's and they have come to Chile!! What a perfect present -- his favorite meal prepared by a restaurant he knows from back home. The entrance on San Antonio is fairly tiny (if you're not looking you can miss it as you walk past), but as I made my way down the stairs, to my surprise, there was a large underground restaurant with flat screen TVs and an open kitchen. I ordered him his favorite 1/4 of pollo a la brasa served with french fries and a peruvian salad (prices are similar to Aji Seco) and I sat in a comfy waiting area until my order was promptly ready. The chicken was just as good as it is in Peru. If you have a hankering for bbq chicken I definitely recommend trying Norky's. They also offer delivery and takeout.

I also ordered a pisco sour, which was perfectly balanced and one of the better ones I've had. If you enjoy high-quality seafood and fresh fish, La Mar is absolutely worth a visit.

We asked for some spice just to give it a kick..did not work. Ceveche needs to be marinated for hours or a day. My friend had Lomo Salteado the meat was not tender at all just hard and again flavorless. I ordered something called Flamenco with the chef sauce. My dish was semi good, the issue was the salmon was over cooked. Now for service...he seemed like he did not enjoy doing his job and seemed peturbed when asked any questions. Too bad plates look better then they taste. Bummer!
