Al parecer, ni siquiera tienen un chef en el local que pueda atender un pedido básico. Es frustrante cuando un lugar que antes disfrutabas se vuelve tan inflexible. Definitivamente estoy pensando si volveré.

A good tapas bar in Santiago is hard to find, but look no further than De la Ostia! If you have an…read moreentire Sunday to spend with friends, drinking pitchers and pitchers of delicious sangria, you will not be disappointed. This spot is on a busy restaurant row and on the weekends, every table on the boulevard is taken (hint: arrive early--13:30, stay late-17:00). The staff is very nice and accommodating. My recommendations are the mushroom croquettes (just go ahead and order two), the sangria, and the Spanish tortilla. If you like calamari rings, those are also nice. The most unusual option is the flamenquines, which are sort of a tapas version of a Scotch egg with pork, pepper, and an egg in the center with a nice fried crust. Check it out! Depending on the time of year, the sun can be harsh, so wear SPF or bring a hat, because the umbrellas are few. Need to hit the loo? No problem--they have a well-kept unisex bathroom, too.

Middle of the afternoon, not many people inside - decided to sit at the bar so we wouldn't be forgotten. Once the first bartender realized our Spanish-ineptitude, the second bartender handed us a couple of English menus to make our lives easier. To start off, got the Caipirinha ($4.500pesos) - a strong rum/lime/sugar concoction that is actually refreshing on the warmer days. For a snack, shared the Rioja-Style Potatoes Tortilla ($5.200pesos) - a thick omelet in a quiche-style format with potatoes and sausage stuffed inside. Overpowering flavor of egg and a bit oily, but easy to eat and delicious filling. Food and drink took a little while to come out, though we weren't really in a hurry. Cool spot overall; glad we stopped by.

Oh how I miss this restaurant. Of alllll the pisco sours I had in Chile, this place by far had the…read morebest made ones. They were fluffy, spicy, yet sour, yet sweet... and the view. Who can argue with that fantastic view. The food here definitely something to rave about. The ceviche was of great portions and you could taste how fresh the fish and shrimp were. My wife twice ordered the salmon tartar.... I'm literally shaking my head right now thinking of how fantastic it was. That dish is literally a foodies dream with every bite and every taste bud that the flavors indulge. I would recommend getting to this spot mid-day after lunch, but before the happy hour rush to get a seat on the terrace. Come prepared with a light jacket as well to knock the chill despite it being 80 degrees towards the end of summer. If I ever return to Valpa, this restaurant is the FIRST stop on my list. Don't miss out!

However, there were a few small details that made me gave it 4 instead of 5 stars. First, an issue with the entrance door made it uncomfortable for us sitting close to it on a cold night. Second, two groups of singers were allowed to play a few songs and asked for tips later, which left me with the feeling of our conversation being interrupted unnecessary times (it may be just me being too up-tight...). Despite these details (which I hope they correct soon, at least that door!!), it is definitely a place to try. The calamari was a delight and the octopus couldn't make it to an amazing dish but was a close one. The house red wine was a good pick and was a good complement for grilled meat. Congrats!
