Supreme seafood, we ordered the platter for 2, everything was fantastic! The owner/greeter was so friendly, welcoming, and charming 😍 The fresh salsas and bread were delicious. A very popular place on Sunday but we were able to be seated very quickly. The staff were great,friendly, fast, and efficient. Highly recommend 🇨🇦
Wonderful seafood restaurant in the hills of Alegre Valparaiso. We came upon it while enjoying the neighbourhood and gave it a try for lunch. The fresh fish was perfectly cooked and delicious. They also serve a ginger lemonade that was very refreshing. Service was great and the place is charming and out of the busier tourist streets. Would 100% recommend it. Note they don't serve alcohol however so great for a lunch
The atmosphere was great and the staff were attentive and friendly. The food was awesome, they had a full page of empanadas with amazing fillings, from typical fillings to delicious blue cheese and onion. The plates are well priced and the portions are a good size. The owner was very charismatic and was present throughout the meal to make sure all guests were enjoying their meals.
