The crust was flaky and I enjoyed it even though it was on the saltier side. For entree, I ordered their seafood pasta. The pasta was al dente, mixed in with so much seafood that it almost seemed like it was endless. The seafood were big, fresh, and cooked perfectly. It is again, a little too salty for me. This is a great option for a quick bite when you get tired from shopping at the mall. The foods are decent and staff are friendly.

La Mar in Santiago is outstanding. The food is excellent, with an impressive selection of very…read morefresh fish and beautifully prepared seafood. While the menu is mostly focused on seafood, there are also sashimi options and subtle Japanese influences that add nice variety without taking away from La Mar's core identity. Everything we tried was flavorful and well executed, and the quality of the ingredients really stood out. 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.

The service was fantastic and the food... the food was incredible. A few of our dishes were not only tasty but beautiful! It's funny to say that we ate in a peruvian/japanese restaurant in chile and had some of the best fried chicken i've ever eaten. but we did! the "breading" was reminiscent of tempura and the accompanying spicy sauce had a slow burn. we also enjoyed the ceviche, baos, and our delicious dessert with the surprise ingredient. i won't ruin the surprise!! The space felt upscale but not fussy. exactly what i'm looking for in a restaurant. sad we don't live closer so we could come back to try the rest of the menu!

Had such a lovely experience eating at La Picantería!…read more After spending a week hiking through Patagonia/Torres Del Paine sleeping in tents and eating sandwiches, we were eagerly awaiting a nice sit down meal to celebrate, and La Picantería did not disappoint. The spot is located in a multi-level, beautiful shopping/dining center (for those from NYC, imagine an outdoor version of the Shops at Columbus Circle). The weather was beautiful, and it was so nice being able to enjoy the meal under the pleasant night air. Reservations are preferred during peak days/times, but we were able to easily walk in. All of the seafood/crudo/ceviche was absolutely delicious and so fresh. Their pisco menu was overwhelming (in a good way), and the drinks were great. Prices were extremely reasonable - we over-ordered food to share as a table, and everyone had multiple drinks, and I think we spent probably not much more than $50/pp. We all left with happy stomachs, satisfied taste buds, and slightly buzzed. Highly recommend this place if you happen to be in Santiago and want seafood!

The seafood is fresh, and the creative preparations are awesome. If you have never tried your fish "escabechado", I would highly recommend it.

I would definitely recommend "La Picantería", as one of your MUST seafood restaurants in Santiago, Chile.
