The dinner was good. The pisco sour was ok. I think the glasses were not washed correctly because they had a weird smell. I ordered dessert and it tasted like it was warmed in the microwave. The service was minimal and there were only 2 other customers. Would not return

Did not have a great experience here. It took forever for the waiter to come and take our order. When I ordered a beer, it again, took way too long and and he seemed slightly annoyed and confused. There were only two other tables in the restaurant so it’s not as if they were super busy. We ordered the only two vegetarian dishes on the menu that weren’t listed under Pizza, and surprise, one of them was actually also a pizza just a bit thinner and named “churrascada”. Both dishes were ok at best. The eggplant was just covered in not very good cheese (i mean I love cheese, but come on..) and had a mound of fried potato’s next to it and the churrascada is basically a thin pizza. Maybe we came in on an off day, but I can’t recommend it unfortunately.

This café translates the vibe of Valparaiso. The food was what we were looking for. We haven’t heard about it before and it was recommended by the hotel where we were staying at. It was a Sunday night, and no many options to choose from, so we decided to give it a go, with absolute no expectations. All the dishes we had, felt like homemade and very authentic. The Machas a la permesiana (Chilean pink clams) were my favourite. Used to eat clams, I haven’t tried anything like this before. We also had empanadas and the pastel de choclo (one of the typical Chilean dishes), which was recommended by Daniel, the nice and very welcoming waiter, after we told him that we would like to try something from Chile. This cafe claims to be the first pisco sour bar in chile where the pisco that we had was sooooo good, that just before we left Valparaiso, with no more space for food in our bellies, we went back to it to have one last pisco. We have been to other restaurants in Valpo after that, but this is the one i will be recommending to family and friends when visiting the beautiful place. I Also would like to highlight the great service from all of the team, but specially from Daniel, which was e

We ordered the pizza and meat sandwich. They are quite good. The service is very good as well! They have explained the menu very well in English despite we don’t speak Spanish! The terrace outdoor was a nice dining spot.
