Beautiful restaurant located near the beach in La Serena. It's not the easiest to get by walk but not impossible and totally worth it! I had lunch here a day before I came back home. The food was great. The service is pretty on top, waitresses really attent and prompt. The toilets were pretty clean compared to other places in the city. The only reason why I gave 4 stars for service is because our first waitress wasn't really attentive to us compared to other tables, but our second waitress was amazing! Definitely coming back and totally recommended.
