Note that the portions are not particularly large, the prices are not particularly low, and the decor not at all new if that kind of thing is important to you - but it is truly charming, quirky, fun and delicious. It was one of our favorite nights out coming here, and we even played a game at the arcade after supper, although it closed very shortly after that, so come early if you really want to spend time at the arcade. IMPORTANT NOTE: ONLY OPEN ON WEEKENDS. (We tried to go during the week and failed, but we came back and were so glad we did!)

I am an After Office fan. When studying here, Wednesdays were always big party nights and we had…read moretwo options: Miercolespo or After Office. The students always chose Miercolespo as it is a little more crazy (where binge drinking [a college students favorite pastime] usually took place). But even as a student, I always preferred going to After Office as it is a little more refined (by no means am I super chic...but it is nice to dress up and put on heels every once in awhile). After Office used to be in Castillo Hidalo, and while it was a ton of fun, it was always a little sketchy getting down if you missed the last bus to the main street. So when I heard After Office moved to San Francisco (a few blocks from my house) I was pretty enthused! When I came around 8pm (you know, trying to be fashionably late), it seems like everyone had the same idea and there was a bit of a long line in the parking structure. Once my friend and I got to the entrance, we mentioned the code and got in for free (Make sure to come before 9pm and mention "código 570" to get in for free). Some people weren't allowed in because they were wearing jeans - remember dress to impress (no jeans, sandals, or sneakers). Once we got to the top, we were amazed by the incredible view of the city, the great music (there are a couple of different rooms with different djays) and the large bar and snacks (they have sushi)! Happy hour was going on for another hour (until 9pm) so we made sure to get our 2x1 before it ended! Overall, we had a great time, met some fun people and danced until a respectible hour (yes, I am a grandma). The party usually starts at 7pm and ends at 1:30am unless it is a bank holiday and in that case it usually goes for a bit longer.

This is hands-down the best rooftop bar in all of Bella Vista, but good luck getting a table on the…read moreweekend! Your best bet is to come on a weeknight, particularly now (during the troubles causing the social and political unrest throughout the country and particularly this area) and via taxi since the Baquedano metro stop is no longer in existence. A few months ago (before the troubles started), a group of friends and I tried to come here on a Saturday night around 10:30 p.m. Bad idea. There are no reservations and it is first-come, first-served. That was no problem for us because there are so many great restaurants and bars in this neighborhood, but fast-forward to last week when I had a friend from the U.S. visiting for her first time ever. She spent the daytime taking the funicular, touring the zoo, and taking a walking tour. Regrettably, I had not been on the Metro since early October 2019, before all the upheaval began, so I was very late in arriving to meet her thanks to the protests, riot police blocking the streets, and general mayhem just down the street from here. She didn't seem to mind--she found her way to the restaurant and snagged a great table (there really are no bad seats here, but the tables along the railing are the best for taking photos of the cityscape). Once I arrived (badly in need of a drink for all the traumas I just witnessed minutes earlier on my walk), I was absolutely stunned by the beauty, calm, and serenity of this spot. You would have no idea there was a quasi-civil war being fought just down the road. We sat and talked for hours over pisco, wine, and empanadas. I pointed out the various sights around us, including La Chascona, the home of Chilean poet laureate Pablo Neruda, which is named after his mistress-turned-wife, Matilde (hence, the name of the restaurant). Luckily, we came at the perfect time and caught the sunset, which was lovely. If you need to get away from the bustle of the city (or fiery, tear-gas-filled protests), this is the spot for you. It was therapeutic for me that evening and I'll definitely be back (via Uber, not the Metro).

I can't help myself. This place deserves 4* but I need to counteract its terrible rating! I don't…read moreknow why this place has such a bad yelp rating... I went here ignoring the rating because I specifically wanted a sunset view (and it did NOT disappoint). We ordered drinks, 2 starters and elected to share a main dish so that we could order 2 desserts. The cerviche was ok. I have only had better cerviche once in Santiago, but I was still disappointed that there wasn't more tang and the fish was a little fishy. The quinoa salad was good. Nicely presented with a delicious tangy dressing. Very fresh. I ordered 2 drinks, the first a piece pomelo tonic which even with the waiter's advice when ordering I still found too sweet. But he brought me an extra shot of lemon juice and I was really surprised how much I ended up loving this drink. Then I tried a Traditional Mojito made with Flor De Caña 4 rum (because I love rum). I ordered this to be much less sweet than the standard, but it still arrived a bit sweet for me. Nicely presented- I love dried citrus as garnish that's all the rage now! Main dish: sesame encrusted barely seared tuna. If I hadn't eaten so much truly fresh tuna,(diluted in front of me) I could have mistaken this for fresh tuna. Quite nice. And then dessert... actually the desert blew me away. I've been to some very "fancy" restaurants in this past 2 weeks in Argentina & Chile but this was my favourite dessert: quinoa tres leches. It was phenomenal! And gluten free! Like the whole rest of the menu you may have noticed. The second dessert I personally didn't care for but found it interesting and different, and my friend that ordered it absolute loved it. Raves about it. It was a cream made of fruit I hadn't heard of and have unfortunately forgotten with meringue and fresh mandarins. There was even a raw vegan option! (Which I didn't try). Very easy to back gate this menu if you're gluten free or dairy free or have other eating difficulties. I highly rate this place, and the view just sets it over the top.did I mention that I loved the desserts and considered ordering more? They didn't look the part, but they really delivered.
