Appetizer was delicious: ceviche, clams, and an empanada. My entree was a crab dish which was amazing. Though super rich. Dessert - though I could barely eat anymore - was flan.

Alcohol definitely should not only be paired but mixed into dessert Though I don't know Spanish the show was very entertaining!! Highly Recommend.

Located in the bohemian area of Recoleta, Garlic has always called my attention, frankly mostly for…read moreits name. I love garlic and I especially love garlic in my Italian food so whenever I pass by their restaurant my mouth instantly starts to water. Until finally, I stopped in route and went in for an early dinner. When you walk in, you feel like you have entered someone's home; warm, cozy and welcoming. The owners are very friendly and, depending on if there is space, can seat yourself right away (the restaurant is small so I would recommend calling ahead of time to make a reservation). They have a daily menu that changes but always includes a starter, main dish and a dessert for $8.500 + delicious pan amasado and yum-azing pebre. The portions are also pretty large, so you will definitely leave with a happy belly. They are also open for lunch and definitely recommend coming to take advantage of their specials. Although their presentation is a bit lacking, it makes up for it in taste. They use fresh ingredients with quality you can taste (ah that sounds just like a commercial but it's true!). They use a great quality olive in the dishes they prepare as well as garlic (not in all of the dishes but mmm its in their pesto for example, a must try when there). The only negative is that despite the friendliness of the owners and staff, the service is a bit slow.

After aimlessly walking around the hills for a while and taking in the sights, settled on this…read morebar/restaurant for a quick breather. Middle of the afternoon, not many people inside - decided to sit at the bar so we wouldn't be forgotten. Once the first bartender realized our Spanish-ineptitude, the second bartender handed us a couple of English menus to make our lives easier. To start off, got the Caipirinha ($4.500pesos) - a strong rum/lime/sugar concoction that is actually refreshing on the warmer days. For a snack, shared the Rioja-Style Potatoes Tortilla ($5.200pesos) - a thick omelet in a quiche-style format with potatoes and sausage stuffed inside. Overpowering flavor of egg and a bit oily, but easy to eat and delicious filling. Food and drink took a little while to come out, though we weren't really in a hurry. Cool spot overall; glad we stopped by.

Who can argue with that fantastic view. The food here definitely something to rave about. The ceviche was of great portions and you could taste how fresh the fish and shrimp were. My wife twice ordered the salmon tartar.... I'm literally shaking my head right now thinking of how fantastic it was. That dish is literally a foodies dream with every bite and every taste bud that the flavors indulge. I would recommend getting to this spot mid-day after lunch, but before the happy hour rush to get a seat on the terrace. Come prepared with a light jacket as well to knock the chill despite it being 80 degrees towards the end of summer. If I ever return to Valpa, this restaurant is the FIRST stop on my list. Don't miss out!

They only had a Spanish menu, so we had hard time deciding what we wanted. We ordered ceviche as appetizer and congrio and steak as our entrees. Ceviche was a little strange. It was three different ceviche; salmon, octopus, and shrimp. Salmon was very good. I didn't like octopus at all. It tasted weird. Shrimp was okay. My congrio was perfectly cooked and very flavorful. My husband enjoyed his steak. It was very tender. Presentation was very good and so was the service. We had good experience here.

My wife and I both agree that it was a great place to dine and we will go back again.

Severely disappointed…read more It took exactly an hour for food to arrive on the table after we sat down, even though we ordered promptly and there were very few other patrons for an "early" 13:15 lunch. I had only an hour before an appointment, and had the time to eat only 5 mouthfuls before leaving. The salmon dish tasted nothing like the description--no sweet confiture that I could find--and was too dry, and was served mostly cold. It was an incompetent dish. It was miserable compared to others I've had in the neighborhood, definitely not what I would have expected for the price. Total bill for two (one shared entree, two main dishes, a cup of wine and some mineral water for each) came out to US$ 140. The sole silver lining (the second star in this review) is for the service, as the staff had the grace not to ignore us while we were waiting and offered a free (tiny) entree of abalones with mayo as the minutes dragged on.
