Una de las mejores picadas de Valdivia para almorzar. Imperdible lugar que ofrece platos chilenos caseros contundentes que incluye sopita y postre. Ideal para ir en grupo. Emprendimiento familiar. 100% recomendable.

Excelente experiencia en Don George. La comida estaba realmente deliciosa, con ese sabor casero que cuesta encontrar hoy en día. Las porciones fueron contundentes y todo se notaba fresco y bien preparado. De hecho, estaba tan bueno que cuando pensé en sacar una foto, ¡ya no quedaba nada en el plato! Sin duda, un lugar totalmente recomendable para quienes buscan comida casera de calidad.

Encantador establecimiento. El lugar es como estar en una casita, en el campo. Las personas que atienden son super amables y cálidas, diría que hasta cariñosas, cercanas. La comida exquisita, nada que quitar, nada que agregar. Es la picá perfecta.

Love the local experience, but prices were a bit high visiting what I got. Tasty homemade-like food, the braised beef I ate was oversalted.
