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. Chileans eat congrio (conger eel), reineta, hake and corvina, plus machas (razor clams), mussels, clams, scallops and sea urchins, in paila marina (seafood stew), caldillo de congrio or crab chupe; locos (Chilean abalone) are subject to closed seasons and quotas, so ask what is in that day, and fish demand soars over Easter.

Muy rico todo, pero mención especial para el sándwich de merluza 🤤🐟 Realmente delicioso! Excelente sabor, buena porción y una atención muy amable. Un lugar totalmente recomendado para disfrutar comida rica en el puerto de Talcahuano…. Iré a probar otros platos si o si

La verdad fui por las recomendaciones de Instagram y por este mismo medio... quedé totalmente decepcionada. Primero el ambiente, es una casa ambientada donde la cocineria está ahí mismo, nos ofrecieron sentarnos en la entrada y el calor era insoportable por todo el calor de la cocina, la atención súper lenta y eso que solo estaba mi esposo y yo. Tenía que pararme e ir a la cocina y pedir las cosas muchas veces porque la persona que me atendía no traía las cosas. Pedí dos empanadas la joyita que valen 3000 cada una, supuestamente tenía manchas, queso, crema y camarón... Me salió un camarón diminuto y era a lo más dos manchas picadas el resto pura crema. Pedí una candola muchas veces y me la trajeron con el plato de fondo en una taza de 200ml a $2.500 la taza toda chorreada en el plato... Llegó alguien de cocineria y solo gritaban a la puerta, entiendo que sea algo familiar pero no podemos estar gritando de la cocina a la puerta todo el rato, porque es incómodo. Luego el plato de merluza y unas papas fritas $8.400. la verdad encontré caro los valores para la atención y tamaño de los platos. Solo se podía pagar en efectivo y transferencia. No volvería la verdad, cuando pedí la cuenta
