Why Travelers Love Mestizo
Sourced from recent guest feedback and verified reviews.
Many people smoke outside so it’s not a good place to sit. Also many flies can be very disturbing. Traditional dishes are very good, but I don’t like the new dessert. Food is 5 star, service is okay. One of My Favorite Restaurants in the World Eight years ago, I visited Mestizo with my parents, and it was one of the best experiences of my life. I’ve remembered that day ever since and always dreamed of coming back to Chile just to go there again. Now, after traveling to over 25 countries, I can honestly say—Mestizo is still my top restaurant in the world. The atmosphere next to Parque Bicentenario is stunning, the service is amazing, and the food is unforgettable. The prices are also very fair for the quality and experience you get. You have to try the mascarpone risotto—it’s absolutely incredible. This place is something truly special, and I highly recommend it to anyone visiting Santiago. The food is variable, portions on the small side. Service is efficient if a little perfunctory. The bread we got at the start of the meal was dry and had been reheated. For this price point, I'd expect freshly baked bread. The key thing about this place is its lovely location by the park.

This was perfect for a larger group client dinner for a business meeting. Great atmosphere, good food, views, service. The staff were very attentive - thank you especially to Ivan E. for going above and beyond to provide excellent follow up support!

Mestizo is a fantastic restaurant located right at Santiago's Parque Bicentenario. Sitting outside one can enjoy the fresh air and nature while enjoying perfect seafood dishes paired with great wines and beer. The staff was very attentive and friendly and this combined with the quality of the food and the lovely surroundings this restaurant is outstanding.
