Food was absolutely great.

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.

Cozy restaurant built around a tree. The decor is charming in a beach like way…read more Service is very good and they ha a nice selection of piscos. The dishes are well served.

It also has great cocktails and excellent French fries. The food is good but not spectacular. This is a place to go in Maitencillo.

By the time we were seated, it was dark so we sat inside. We were 2 couples and 4 little kids, so we didn't order much, just a bottle of Casa del Bosque sauv blanc and the seafood assortment, one cold and one hot. My favorite was the machas a la parmesana (razor clams). The kids just had French fries and we had started with a pisco sour (best I've had so far). The bill was about $140 USD. Five stars for food, service and ambiance and 4 for the value, but to be honest, it's a memorable location, off the beaten path so 5 stars total for the entire experience.
