The best traditional Chilean fine dining room in the city — chef Carolina Bazán's Lastarria restaurant has been the reference for classic Chilean cuisine done with precision and elegance since 2004. The beef tenderloin with merkén and the conger eel chupe are benchmark dishes.
Why It Belongs on the List
Ambrosia is what Chilean fine dining looks like when it is done with integrity — Carolina Bazán's kitchen in Lastarria uses the country's finest ingredients (Chilean sea bass, congrio, Patagonian lamb, merkén spice) and treats them with genuine culinary sophistication rather than novelty. The most important traditional fine dining room in Santiago.
