When visiting Viña Del Mar, we visit on a daily basis to remind us how wonderful the simple pleasures in life can be. The work ethic of the staff shows in every delicious taste of their gelato, they make it in the store with premium ingredients!! When you are in the Valparaiso region of Chile, you must attempt to try every flavor of gelato provided by Coletti because there is no better. The highest quality homemade gelato with excellent friendly service. We love this place!

We were directed here by our AirBnB host when we asked for recommendations on Chilean restaurants…read morein the area. Like many restaurants in Chile they had an English version of the menu. Many of the ingredients don't translate exactly to an English equivalent but for the most part it was accurate. What we didn't realize was the size of the portions! We both ordered a sandwich, one a Burger and then the other was a sliced beef and cheese (can't recall what they called it). Needless to say they were enormous! We certainly could have shared one. I recommend sharing a dish with someone unless you are especially hungry or simply want to try various items. Overall the food was good, nothing that I'd get excited about if I lived nearby other than it'd be a cheap meal when splitting with another person. The staff were extremely nice and helpful. We also enjoyed a very good wine although they didn't have the first 3 wines that we chose so ended up with whatever they did have on hand.

There was a lot of hype about this place online for the chorillana. It opens at 2PM, and pretty…read moremuch only sells chorillana and terremotos (an alcoholic beverage). The chorillana servings are huge, and it comes with half soggy fries with a beef and onion sauteed mix on top. The juice from the meat and the onion is what makes the fries soggy, and I think that was part of the point of the dish.. but it was just so heavy and really not as good as it seems like it should have been. Terremotos here are bad. They pour so much bitters in it that the other sweet flavors arent even there. the interior is kind of weird but cool. They have random objects hung up in what seems to be a random design, and people have started a tradition of leaving their passport photos on all parts of the walls.

Sorry, but Valparaiso is famous for its fresh fish but not for this - no native would eat it. The taxi driver warned us. In fact all the Chileans whom we met there had a nice steak with salad and potatoes as side. If you find an old bottle of tomato sauce in your fridge and you need something to go with it try this "meal". Maybe I'm too bourgeois for that, but , honestly, I don't think so ;-) BTW the address has changed its now located in Calle Francisco Valdes Vergara - a street down from Calle General Cruz - maybe he's turning in his grave?

Cozy setting in what feels like a small art gallery. Excellent, efficient, friendly service. Our…read morewaiter spoke no English, but was patient with our mediocre to bad Spanish. Fun, colorful neighborhood up a (relatively) easy hill from downtown. The food seemed like a modern blend of Chilean, Italian, Seafood, and Peruvian items. I had a steak on shrimp-sauce rice, and it was delicious. The rice was so flavorful and rich it didn't even need the steak to be a complete dish. Our daughter had salmon, which was very fresh and perfectly cooked. We ate early (by Chilean standards), so I can't testify to what the scene or service are like when it's busier.

We had a busy day exploring Valpo and Vina del Mar, and we simply wanted to spend our last hour in Chile drinking pisco sour. Stumbling upon SaborColor was such a wonderful coincidence. The restaurant is located a little bit up the hill in Cerro Concepcion in beautifully renovated house. The ambiance is warm and woody, the walls decorated with quite impressive paintings for sale, jazz music playing in the background. The most important thing, they make pisco sours, all kind of them. Our cocktails were the best we had in Chile. I started with the classical one and switched to the ginger version, both were so well balanced and subtle. I wish I could stay longer and have more versions of it. Certainly a place to stop by for a drink and more! Salud!

Yo comi un mariscal caliente que estaba ok, PERO bastante mas chico que la ultima vez que estuve alli en 2023. Ayer mi esposa ordeno guatitas a la italiana con papas fritas......grave error.....las guatitas venian medias crudas, dificil de masticar, tipo goma, y las papas fritas se encuentran mejor en cualquier parte pero no aqui. Un fiasco total para ella. Creo que eran guatitas mal cocidas y, viejas en el congelador y recalentadas. Una burla al cliente! No las devolvimos pues como muchos chilenos, aceptamos todo sin chistar. Habiamos tenido cazuela en Febrero 2026 y vino muy chica, aguada y sin la ensalada grande que era incluida en 2023 y que cobran aparte. Resumen: Un achicamiento de todos los platos y cobros extra combinado con comida de baja calidad. Y a precios premium que no son justificados. NUNCA MAS!

There was no English menu which meant we had to navigate our way through the Spanish menu with no images but that's all the fun! Despite being quite a touristy place, finding an English menu is quite rare - probably because we always opt to eat in local-looking places which is where all the good food is!

See I love coffee a great deal. I appreciate the fact that my coffee was served in a homey looking ceramic mug. The whole place has a homey vibe going. Seating is limited but they do their best to accommodate groups. There's a local Street artist that paints dogs and cats freehand and he's responsible for a lot of the artwork in here. The artist is pretty damn amazing and he charges almost nothing for his work. This place also hands you a napkin and colored markers to draw your own piece of art and they'll even let you tape it up on their walls. Very cool coffee and tea spot. Like others stated. They do serve sandwiches and other small meals. Check it out.
