Our hotel had a deal for free Pisco Sours here so...drinks were good, staff friendly. Food fine, nothing exceptional. Great location in a neighborhood square with a lot of foot traffic (locals, tourists). read more

The service was really good, the food was good, and the prices were a little too high. Perhaps because 7:00 pm is too early, but the vibe (atmosphere) was lacking a positive energy. read more

This restaurant was our worst experience in Santiago. It was hot, we wanted a couple drinks and an appetizer. The place was not busy, all tables inside were open, and over half the outside tables were available at 1230pm. After we ordered our drinks our waiter asked what food we wanted to order. We said just drinks for now, he responded with "we are not a bar, you must order food." Though we were thrown aback, we understood, I asked for a minute to look over the menu and he just stood there next to our table until we ordered. He also said that very loudly and in an extremely condescending way. Had he politely informed us that we needed to buy food, I probably wouldn't have bothered with this review. We ordered a hamburger to split. It was our travel day and I didn't want to risk eating their seafood. Glad I made that choice. The blue cheese burger tasted like a frozen patty, the caramelized onions tasted like they actually used caramels with onions. Very upset with the way the server acted. Food was as good as our server. Drinks were alright. read more

A short walk from our hotel, this restaurant had a nice menu and wine list. Enjoyed smoked salmon canapés, stuffed pasta and ceviche. Yum! Highly recommend. read more

Went there for our last lunch in Santiago, and it was a great decision. We had delicious canapés, caneloni, a pizza, bolognese pasta, lasagna, tiramisu, panna cotta, ice cream and espressos. Only demerit was the panna cotta was too sweet. Waiter was terrific (even drew a little portrait for us). Menu was large, pacing was great. Restaurant appeared to seat about 60 and was 3/4 full for lunch on a Thursday. Best restaurant experience we had in Santiago. read more

When I first saw the reviews of this place, I was hesitant... But the food here is phenomenal, mint lemonade to die for, great wine list, and service was incredible. I felt very taken care of and pampered. The vibe was very comfortable and colorful which made it extremely pleasant to enjoy a group luncheon. I will definitely be back when I come to visit South America. read more

Nolita - Italian Near Me - Santiago, RM

We came today January 8th 2019 to eat at the restaurant. The Crab Bisque was very good. However, my wife order Osso buco and five (5) minutes later asked the Waiter to cancel the order, they came back saying that it can't be cancelled because it was already made. This dish was cooked a few days as this is the nature of the dish.Nevertheless, it wasn't good. I also ordered Chicken Parmasan, the chicken came cold and was placed in the microwave after telling them about it. For an expensive restaurant I expected to be much better and fresh. I definitely will not come back and I do not recommend it. read more

The service is good, very very good compared to other Chilean restaurants that we have visited. We ate at the charming Lastarria location before heading over to the Museum of Fine Arts: nice small outdoor patio located in a pedestrian area (nearby there is a well-stocked bookstore for those who read Spanish). We started with a dozen fresh shucked oysters served on the half shell (they actually brought us 14). The oysters were served with a lemony water... a mignonette sauce would have complemented the tiny Chilean oysters better. My date ordered the Ceviche del Norte which was tasty and fresh but not quite up to international standards. What do I mean by this? Well, the corn was not those big kernels that you´d find in a Peruvian ceviche (I assumed that is what they meant by del norte), but rather the small kernels that you would find in the frozen vegetables section of the local supermarket. The white fish (tilapia?) was absolutely delicious, but the shellfish (scallops, shrimps and oysters) were passable, not outstanding. Oh, the scallops are served with their gonads still attached (unlike in the US), so that was interesting in a good way, I think. I tried an Italian stuffed pasta, which is the specialty of the restaurant. The sauce was very heavy on cream, but the pasta itself is obviously fresh and the goat cheese inside was delicious. Given that the inside of the pasta was so rich I would have preferred a lighter sauce. Along with the pasta I ordered a mini watercress salad (ensalada de berros) which paired well with the heavy pasta dish, otherwise I am not sure if I would have been able to finish the meal. read more

We chose this spot because it's right around the corner from the hotel where we stayed. I thought it was all in all great - nothing super special but tasty food for a decent price. It was also the best service we experienced in Chile (which I think on the whole isn't really known for its service...) My favorite part of the meal was the ceviche we ordered as an app. There were three choices and I randomly picked the "ceviche del norte" and it was delicious. A mix of shrimp and fish in a really nice sauce. It could have been slightly more acidic but they actually provided eyedroppers of lime juice on the side so you can add a bit more yourself. The best part was how soft and tender the fish was! I also ordered the goat cheese ravioli and the white sauce was a bit richer than I would normally like but still quite delicious. If you're in Santiago this is a great break from South American cuisine :) read more

There has got to be better Italian restaurants in Santiago This is not one on them. The pastas are out of a box. Only the gnocchi is house made. Portions are large. For the not so fussy eater, this place is passable and the price tag is right. read more

Service was spot on, location great to sit outside and watch the passing parade. Piscina sours on mark. We had two pasta dishes for a change from local cuisine. Both were distinctly below par. Fettuccine was over cooked with a plain sauce. Gnocchi was just ok. This street is so touristy that perhaps one should not expect too much. read more

The food was ok, at nolita. The drinks were the part to go here the seafood risotto was a bit to sticky and was a bit to oily but had good flavor. Though the Steak a la parmesan I'd steer clear of that it was like a microwaveable chicken fried steak with a pound of dried melted cheese on it and the chips were funky not quite stale but not great. read more

Not bad! I have baked trout with a side of fettuccine. A nice comfort dish for a rainy and cold spring day. Service was fairly fast and the food was pretty good. The sauce was a little too rich for my liking but the pasta was perfect. Good for some standard Italian dishes. They seem to have a lot of pasta dishes. read more

Been here several times . Meet in normal dishes are ok. The big portion for tourists were not so wonderful.

Avoid eating at this restaurant if you care about human rights. Having travelled to over 12 countries for business, I have never witnessed such blatant and ugly discrimination. On June 16 at approximately 7:30 p.m., I arrived with a colleague at the Lastarria location and we requested a window seat. After a bit of commotion that we did not understand, we were finally given a window seat at the front of the nearly empty restaurant. Within minutes of sitting down, I saw the manager instruct two staff to stand outside the restaurant on the other side of the glass from where we were seated. About five waiters, talking in low voices, gathered to watch what my colleague and I realized was two staff members blocking potential customers from seeing me, a member of a visible minority group, eating inside their restaurant. The moment we got up to leave, the two staff members immediately returned inside the restaurant. Our hotel concierge and a Chilean office colleague explained that Chile is getting better in terms of its treatment of visible minorities, however some are still very racist (including staff at this restaurant) and are not ashamed to display it. Our colleague explained that because this restaurant wants to appear chic, exclusive and European, the manager does not want customers to see visible minorities eating inside her establishment as she feels it will ruin the exclusive reputation of her restaurant. After traveling to over 12 countries and dozens of international cities on business, I have never experienced anything like this in my life! Please avoid eating at this restaurant if you care about human rights. read more

A wonderful dinner served beautifully. We had the grilled seafood platter for two as did our dining companions. Each fish was perfectly. The servers were attentive and I love the place. There are dozens of restaurants nearby but this is a gem! read more

Nolita - Grilled seafood for two! - Italian Near Me - Santiago, RM

First food foray of the holiday was an Italian place called Nolita which I chose because of its proximity to the hotel, good reviews on Yelp, and an English version of the menu. Cool place with concrete ceilings and brass instruments suspended in front of a wall of mirrors in a little courtyard full of restaurants. I ordered the Golden Ceviche which was made with octopus, shrimp, scallops, tuna, squid, bell pepper, red onion, corn and lemon juice. At 13,500 pesos (about $22.50 based on the exchange rate my hotel gave me when I arrived this afternoon) it was the most expensive of the three varieties they offer. Very generous serve heaped onto a bed of lettuce and quite tasty. It came with a little loaf of warm, delicious bread and a small bowl of extra lemon juice accompanied by an eye dropper to squirt it on with in case the original recipe wasn't tart enough for you. AFD so just ordered a sparkling mineral water to drink. read more

I had a beef tongue first and the salmon main. Both dishes were well done. The service was great. I was at an outside table and found the atmosphere great. read more

When we came for dinner, the restaurant was sparsely filled and we probably did not need a reservation. Their outdoor seating is pleasant for a big group. I recommend the pastas and salmon (both tasted very rich). Service is friendly but a bit slow and not particularly attentive. The inside of the restaurant has a very interesting artistic decor that gives the restaurant a unique vibe. read more
