Restaurants near Chilean National Museum of Natural History

Great restaurant. Wonderful food and atmosphere. Will definitely be back when I’m back in Santiago

The location is a bit off putting. Not very accessible and slightly dodgy. The concept and layout especially the long entry sequence is totally unconventional and slightly bizarre. As first time guests, we were wondering whether we were in a maritime museum or seafood restaurant? After being led inside for a good 5 minutes, passing numerous scale model displays of whales, sharks, turtles, sea monsters, maritime paraphernalia, etc. we finally arrive at the bar which resembled a pirate galleon. Then a labyrinth of dining rooms unfolds beyond. We sat in the sun room with a lovely skylight. Some English is spoken thankfully and we ordered 4 mains and seafood soup to share - grilled octopus, abalone risotto, prawn crab spaghetti, fried fish on quinoa. Portions are generous, seasoning is rich and intense and the seafood is very fresh. The cooking style and taste are should cater to most tastebuds. We had a very satisfying and filling meal here.

Great food. Nice folks. Wait wasn’t long and they were very kind.
