The meal started well with friendly service and the Salmon tartare cones. They were delicious! The tables on the patio are wonderful. We ordered the salmon and the Sea Bass. I was particularly looking forward to having Chilean Sea Bass while in Chile. Ironically the salmon was the hit and the Sea Bass was dry. Also, after we chose to order just a glass of wine each instead of a bottle, our waiter abandoned us. He stopped checking on us and we had to ask for the check (albeit typical in Chile) after quite a long wait. Please note this isn't a bad restaurant, it's just not consistently great for a 5 star hotel. There are many options for good dining in Santiago, this one is average for fine dining.

Incredible experience!…read more We were hoping for the opportunity to try a good Chilean Sea Bass, but due to the season found ourselves indulging in the juices of the Patagonian lamb perfectly prepared with putee eggplant and a Carmanere wine glaze. Before we can even decide on an appetizer, we were greeted with freshly warm biscuits that were stuffed with caramelized onions and a cone of tuna Crudo (on the house!). Pro Tip: Request a taste of several wines, including the regional Carmanere (originating from France, but rediscovered in Chile). Camilo provided us with exceptional service and even surprised us with a parting gift! It was a pleasure getting to know him and hope to cross paths with him in the future.

We returned to their new location in Vitacura last week for lunch, and enjoyed it so much that we came in again for lunch yesterday, which was even more phenomenal! We enjoyed the platter for 2 of a variety of delectable fresh seafood to include king crab, sea urchin, scallops, prawns & more; a Chilean seafood soup with an unforgettable broth, sautéed filets of trout. Couldn't resist indulging in an appetizer of sea urchin ("uni") that was so fresh and simply prepared that was the best we've ever had! Their new venue is delightful, and our table next to the a window made for entertaining people watching.

The sea bass was cooked perfectly in a lemon based sauce. The top was crispy and the center was juicy and absolutely delicious. My seafood soup was outstanding. The conger eel was tasty and the soup was filled with small scallops and shrimp. It also came with large size mussels and clams. The broth was flavorful and wonderful. Our creamed spinach was also delicious. Service was attentive and polite. If you are near this place and want a fantastic seafood meal, this is the place to go.

The restaurant has English menu if you ask. The waiters were helpful. The food was excellent. We had a shrimp/fish ceviche and also a salmon ceviche.

Only thing was the bathroom could be cleaner since this seems to be a more upscale restaurant.

Two were beef and two were shrimp and cheese. Both were delicious. We have had empanadas from Argentina. The ones from Argentina are baked in a heavier pastry while the Chilean ones are fried in a lighter pastry. Both are delicious! The pisco sour was wonderful and a bit strong for me (I'm a lightweight). I'm glad I ordered a small one. Next we ordered the mixed ceviche. It is different from Mexican ceviche since the fish isn't chopped and mixed. Still amazing!! It is served with hominy and fried corn kernels. Bottom line: yummmm!!
