My daughters, one had Spaghetti with Bolognese sauce and the other had Fettuccine with Shrimp & chicken. Both loved their dish and said one of best pasta dishes they have had. Service was quick and waitress for friendly and patient to walk us through the menu which was in Spanish.

The freshly made lemonade with ginger and mint was very flavorful. The maqui flan dessert was to die for. The young ladies at the front of house were very knowledgeable and pleasant. One of the owners even came over to my table to say hello and asked how our meal was. Will definitely return.

What a Godsend this restaurant was. Sunday early afternoon, practically nothing was open in the…read morearea. Luckily the waitress was standing near the door and waved us in as we were wandering around starving. Decor and music is reminiscent of a traditional Chilean feel; something we hadn't really experienced yet. As we were perusing through the menu, waitress gives us the free bread and sauce to pair with a bottle of Rawen Gran Reserva Cabernet Sauvignon ($12.000pesos). Bread is warm and the sauce has a wonderful kick. The wine is rich but did not overpower our food. We also ordered the Empanadas de Gallina (forgot price) - three lightly baked patties filled with tender meat and cheese; didn't need any sauce. For the main course, shared the Llanquihue ($9.500pesos) and Huerquehue ($9.800pesos). The Llanquihue is a smoked pork rib (similar to thick-cut bacon) surrounded by crunchy quinoa spheres. Huerquehue includes a roasted lamb with an amazing creamy wheat mote and wild mushrooms. Waitress here went above and beyond as we have limited Spanish skills (she really tried her best). Awesome spot and wish I could visit again.

This restaurant was recommended by our B&B host as a place that served food all day from lunchtime…read more We got there around 3 and it was pretty much empty. The place is bigger than it looks and has several sections and a bar in the back. We sat in the front which has a long and narrow shape but right by the door was good for people watching. We had cerviche and house empanadas, both very good. They also have fresh juices in large glasses - the pineapple is foamy and delicious.

Maybe I could have stopped there but the food was too tempting and so I went on. For lunch I had a large portion of albacore with grilled vegetables.

A craft vendor here recommended this restaurant for its homestyle (casera) Chilean food. She said…read moreit was muy bueno y muy barato. We couldn't believe we hadn't heard of it before as it's within walking distance for us. So off we went. Apparently we weren't the only ones with the same idea. There were crowds waiting in line. And it was one of the hottest days in Viña! They said it would be a 20 minute wait but we soon realized they said this to everyone! Not sure how long we waited but I got a good sunburn :-( Finally we were seated. The Menu of the Day, for less than $10, included a cup of Beef Consomé, a small salad, choice of one of several main dishes (my husband's chicken milanesa won out over my Carne Mechada ([braised beef which was a bit dry] ), a side ( we both opted for the mashed potatoes (puré) which was great). And our choice of a drink, on weekends only included a delicious Pisco Sour. Otherwise you could choose a beer or fruit juice. Next time I'd like to try their meatballs for and pasta. Our friends strayed from the Menu Del Dis and ordered Pastel de Choclo. It was a really large portion, on the sweet side, but highly recommendable. Portions are so big that we didn't have room for dessert. We took food home and were a little surprised there was a small charge for the take-out containers but that's ok. The service was friendly and good even though they were so busy. We'll definitely be back. Not sure I'd come back on a weekend though but great value for a home-cooked meal in Viña!
