We had reservations for 7, but arrived early. We were sat at the edge of the patio with a tremendous view of the Valparaiso harbor. Our server Felipe, and he was a Michelin star server. All the dish cover were removed at the same time to accent the beautiful presentation. He was super responsive and ahead of our requests. The food was delicious and unique in taste and presentation. I highly recommend La Concepcion and for sure, ask to be seated with Felipe. You will throughly enjoy your time. read more

Superb restaurant in Valparaiso. We enjoyed dining at La Concepcion so much that we returned the next evening. Location: La Concepcion is perched on Cerro Concepcion, one of Valparaiso's signature hills. The outdoor dining area overlooks the Valparaiso's port and the Pacific Ocean. Food: Easily on par with some of the best restaurants in NYC. First off, the complimentary whole-grain bread they serve is delicious. Our first night, I had the squash soup to start which was outstanding, with a really nice depth of flavor. I followed that with the Crab ravioli which certainly lived up to the hype! Each ravioli encases an impressive amount of crab meat and the accompanying cream sauce makes for a truly divine main. My second night, I started with the ceviche and followed with the braised beef with pumpkin gnocchi, which were both very good, although out of everything I ordered, the crab ravioli reigned supreme. Drinks: I had a Manhattan each night, which was well-made. The bottle of Chilean Cabernet Sauvignon we ordered to accompany our meal had nice depth of flavor and went well with beef. Service: Top-notch. Waitstaff did a great job making sure our needs were attended to and provided helpful recommendations. Overall: A must when in Valparaiso! read more

Based on reviews here and Tripadvisor, I decided to treat myself here on my final night Valparaiso. I ordered the seafood stew and crab ravioli based also based on reviews. The best part of my meal was the bread service with warm bread and herb butter, olive based spread and oil/vinegar. The base of the seafood stew was OK but the shellfish largely tasteless and most likely overcooked. Similarly the crab ravioli really had no crab taste and tasted more like nuts. I'm going to guess that it is out of season (which means it shouldn't be on the menu) or also overcooked. Service was good after I realized that they think you just want to enjoy the view and have to specifically request to pay after you say you are finished and they clear the table. I wouldn't have an issue of price $35 no beverage with builtin 10% service charge if the food was actually good. read more

If you are in Valparaiso and do not eat at La Concepcion, dont ever talk to men! The food, the service, the drinks, the desserts, oh and the view, all were the bestest! Do yourself a favor, walk the tiny uphill and create a good memory! read more

La Concepción - Fantastic View! Worth the colorful uphill walk - Seafood Near Me - Valparaíso, VS

Good quality but not "unbelievable" as some people claim. Crab ravioli is one of their signature dishes but it's way too rich and crab felt frozen. Seafood soup excellent and ceviche was the best dish by far. Pisco sour good! Nice view of ocean read more

Everything started well. We shared scallops and my wife ordered soup. The soup was finally served with my entree of slow cooked brisket (I would not recommend). We finally shared my dinner and regrettably cancelled her seafood ravio. Enter took 1.5 hours to be served. They sent one complimentary cream brûlée as an apology. The restaurant had been highly recommended and definitely did not live up to expectations. read more

Heard that this restaurant was a must-visit in the area and it did not disappoint. Saturday afternoon, still a few tables outside for lunch time. At first we were seated towards the back of the balcony, then a table opened up towards the front which had an excellent view, and they moved us there without even having to ask. To pair with the excellent view, we ordered a bottle of white wine (can't remember which one, there were a lot of options). An excellent local wine to savor with the free bread and flavored butters they hand out to start. For the main course, ordered the Pescado Austral ($10.700pesos) - a filet of hake on top of excellent quinoa and sauteed vegetables. The fish is fattier than most, which makes it very soft. This is complimented by the hardy quinoa swimming in a tangy sauce. Also got to try a salmon dish, which I liked better (the fish in general). Definitely paying for the view here, as well as the fantastic service. Worth the trip. read more

Quite possibly the best dinner I've had in the entire country. This restaurant had a reputation that preceded it. It met and exceeded all expectations. Fish was amazing, service was above average considering how busy it was and the view is spectacular. It is pricey for Chile but worth it. If you can only visit one restaurant in Valpo, La Concepcion is a great choice! read more

Lunch with a beautiful view! This was hands down my favorite meal in Chile. The food was impeccable and the crisp casas del bosque wine was good. I ordered the crab ravioli and I can't describe how great this meal was. Each ravioli had lots of fresh crab meat and the cream sauce was made to perfection. The service was great along with the views. Our waiter was very attentive and provided us with excellent service. Everyone in our party of 5 loved their dish. I would definitely recommend this restaurant to anyone traveling to Valparaiso. read more

Fresh seafood, great drinks and a view? What more could you ask for. The menu was very creative and the staff was so inviting. I would definitely go back to this place and sit on the balcony once more to enjoy the beautiful view. What a special place. I loved the curry shrimp and my husband enjoyed the ravioli. We both were very pleased! read more

Excellent seafood & fish dishes with a good view of the harbor. Waiters / staff were attentive.

Good food, great service. The view from the deck is spectacular. Overall, all it was a great meal.

My favorite spot in Valpo! Everything was amazing! Food, ambiance, service and spectacular view. We had eel wrapped in pastry which was incredible and unique. Had amazing sauvignon blanc based on waiter's recommendation. Overall great experience and defined recommended! read more

This was my last meal in Valparaiso. It was pretty much perfection compared to all my other dining experiences in Santiago & Valparaiso combined. Surprisingly, not as expensive as I had expected either. Even my backpacking brother on a budget agreed it was worth it. Although, he was coming off a month long bender, so I'm pretty sure this was the nicest meal he'd had in a while. I'm also pretty sure I was the only reason he agreed to stray from his diet of street food. Apparently, my attempt to "rough it" with him was not impressive. Hey, I spent the previous night drinking champagne retrieved from a stranger's trunk straight out the bottle while sitting on a curb until 5 am. I think I deserved a nice last supper. If you want a quality meal with an incredible view, you can't beat La Concepción. Again, when dining in Valpo, go for the view every time. read more

This is a wonderful nicer restaurant. We came here for lunch upon the recommendation of a friend who used to live there. We got there at maybe 1, which is on the early side for Chilean lunch, so we had our choice of sitting right next to the edge of the balcony with an amazing view of the bay. I'm writing this a month after the visit so I forget what I got - some kind of fish, but that's kind of obvious right? It was excellent though and the portion size is decent. I'm a big eater so I wanted a bit more, but it's still enough to leave you feeling like you had enough. It's a great place to go if you're ok with spending a little bit more (it came out to about $30/person) and want nice seafood in a relaxed, seaside ambiance. read more

Great view and location, food is reasonable, but our medium rare stakes were horribly overcooked. You would expect better skills from the chef in a relatively upscale place. read more

The view is excellent. The food is good to very good -- the ravioli was very well made but served with a heavy tomato paste straight from a can. The sauce accompanying the conger eel was heavy and creamy. The ceviche was excellent. The cocktails were disappointing (too sweet) but the waiter was knowledgeable and very friendly. Surprising to see only the house wine is available by the glass. If you want to try some more interesting varieties you have to order a whole bottle. However I was surprised to be charged for two bottles when I had had only one, and shocked to discover the waiter knew instantly from my puzzled expression -- so it was not a mistake...net net make sure to check and double check the bill if you come here! read more

Good food and wine, had the braised beef with mashed sweet potatoes. The beef was a bit dry but it didnt ruin the meal, artisan bread and infused butter as starters were good too. Menu is also in Spanish and English. read more

This is merely the best restaurant in Valparaiso. I started coming here about si years ago, and I come back every time I have clients in town -and with my girlfriend for romantic dinners. Great food, good service (for Chilean standards at least), nice view, and above all: consistency! It is frequent in Chile that the quality varies from one day to another. At La Concepcion, it is consistently very good. If you want to know more about Valparaiso, Santiago, the wine region, etc. feel free to contact me! read more

We stopped here for a day trip in Valparaíso. This is an excellent restaurant. The food was top notch, and if you sit outside you can get an excellent view of the ocean. I ordered the steak, and it was cooked extremely well. My friends ordered the crab ravioli and the bite I had of that was excellent. I highly recommend this place. read more

This restaurant was recommended by our hotel, and I cannot say enough good about it. The view is fantastic, overlooking the beautiful ocean. The service that we had was also outstanding with an excellent waiter named Franco. The seafood was more than excellent, and the wine was also fantastic and reasonably priced.

Recommended wine for us without showing us the wine list. The wine ended up costing $257. Never have I been "recommended" the most expensive item on the menu. That owner and the waiter were unapologetic saying we should have looked at the wine list (which was never given to us) rather than going with the recommendation of the waiter based on our meals. BEWARE. read more

Beautiful restaurant with a beauty view of el Puerto. Food here is delicious, a wee bit pricey but for the great taste, fantastic wine pairings, flavours as well as view, spectacular. One of my favourite restaurants in Valpo. Been here a few times and absolutely love it. would recommend anyone in Valparaiso or travelling to Valparaiso read more

Popped in here for lunch, quite by accident. We didn't want to walk back down the steps before we grabbed a bite to eat. Much to our surprise, there was a spectacular view of the port, and patio seating. The service was prompt, there were 7 in our group and that didn't slow them down at all. The food was fantastic! I ordered a tuna salad, with lemon vinaigrette and it was the best meal I've had in Chile so far. Everyone was happy with their food, so much so that we ordered dessert and it too was delicious. I highly recommend seeking this restaurant out if you're looking for fantastic food while in Valparaiso. read more

An excellent restaurant -- great view, good service, enjoyable cuisine. We enjoyed our shared collection of squash soup, ceviche, short rib - and best (at least in my opinion, not so much my wife) seafood black squid ink pasta (fettuccine Del Mar). The Pisco Sour Rustico was okay; the mango sour a dud (sweet mango juice amongst small ice cubes, served in a martini glass); however, our wine choice was excellent: Toro de Piedra (Cabernet Sauvignon reserve). Great (as advertised as the best restaurant in town), but just not impeccable enough to receive 5-stars. read more

Delicious food, attentive service, and an amazing view. I ate the conger eel, my brother ate the vicuña (the English menu labeled it as a Chilean camel), and my wife ate a local fish of the day. We split a nice bottle of savignon blanc. Reservations recommended if you show up after 8:30pm. read more
