La Casita del Chef is a Peruvian and ceviche restaurant in La Serena, Coquimbo. It is listed at Av Guillermo Ulriksen 4102, 1700000 La Serena, Coquimbo, one of the local businesses residents and visitors turn to.

In Chile lunch is the main meal of the day, roughly from 13:00 to 15:00, once (afternoon tea) comes between 17:00 and 19:00 and dinner rarely starts before 20:30, busiest at weekends. At lunchtime many places serve a menú del día (set lunch), the bill shows a suggested 10% tip that is voluntary, and in the cities almost everything can be ordered for delivery through PedidosYa, Uber Eats or Rappi. Peruvian food is part of everyday eating in Chile: ceviche, causa, ají de gallina and lomo saltado are the classics, and ceviche is best at lunchtime, when the fish has just come in; many cebicherías serve a weekday lunch menu, and if you do not like heat, ask for it mild.

The business lists hours for all seven days of the week. On most of those days it is open 13:00–23:00. Also bear in mind that 1 January, 1 May, 18 and 19 September and 25 December are mandatory retail holidays, when most shops close. You can reach La Casita del Chef on 9 5461 8671; calling is the quickest way to ask about availability, appointments or directions, and many businesses in Chile also answer on WhatsApp. Its website is lacasitadelchef.com, where you may find menus, price lists or booking options.

Far from the main area, this place has typical Peruvian food wich is delicious I'm giving 3 stars on this place due the amount of salt on the plate, it was too salty on my plate, other plates where really good.

Great tasty food. They have a big problem during the high season or at peak hours where food quality drops a lot. Went on a Thursday at 7pm then a Sunday at 2pm, and the experiences were totally different, with dish quality dropping a lot on the Sunday. Hope they fix this.

This is hands-down, no-BS, subjectivity and objectively the BEST RESTAURANT IN THE REGION. If this place was in Santiago, it would be on the top 10 in the country. The food will make you weep with extacy and the service from the wait staff will make you think you're in Peru (wonderful and accommodating staff). A little far from the center of town, but worth the trip up the hill. Probably should have reservations on the weekend. If you're passing through la Serena and you want to sample the finest cuisine and be served like a king, don't pass up this epicurean gift from the heavens. Thank you!
