The pasta I ordered was a bit undercooked, and the chicken was dry and lacked flavor. The sauce was decent—creamy with just the right amount of salt—but overall, the dish was pretty average, like something I could’ve made at home. What really left a bad impression was that the tip was added automatically without any prior notice. I can’t help but wonder if it was because I’m a tourist—would you have done the same to a local? It felt like I was treated differently, and I really didn’t appreciate that. I won’t be coming back. This was a very disappointing experience. We were 5 peolpe and set on the terrace, lovely atmosphere. We all ordered the beef with mashed potato (75Q)- the potatoes were perfect as well as the fresh and crispy vegetables. Totally worth it! We felt like in a michelin kitchen. Would go there again and again! Thanks :) I would move to Santiago just to eat here every day. We had the bolognese fries and pesto pasta we came back the next day just because it was amazing. Great Price-quality.

I made reservations for a group of 14 the night before and they were able to accommodate us on the upper deck of the restaurant. The food was amazing, I definitely recommend getting the potato appetizers and barbacoa burrito. I was really impressed with the food overall, I ordered the pesto pasta and a piña coco smoothie. The restaurant was also very clean, stylish even down to the menus. The service was good even though we had a bigger group. The only negative is that the restaurant is on a busier street so you can hear the street traffic. Overall would recommend especially if you’re looking for a great meal at an affordable price.

A great restaurant with a wonderful staff that offers tasty food with a bit of a different twist than most restaurants here. The chicken burrito was delicious and loaded with veggies. Others at the table ordered carbonara and mac ‘n cheese and they all said it was super tasty! The smoothies were also great. I’ll definitely be eating here again!!
