La Calma by Fredes

Great place for dinner! On the pricier side, but everything we ate was so good and worth it! Staff were professional and attentive and all spoke English which helped a lot. Quiet neighbourhood at night with paid parking near by. Would definitely recommend and would go again!

Some inventive dishes. Nice crab pasta. Favorite dish was the fried eel. Ceviche was a bit tough. Pricey overall. Excellent attentive bi lingual staff and excellent wines.

La Calma was the perfect finale to our three‑week trip. Every dish was fresh, beautifully prepared, and absolutely delicious. The service was outstanding—our server, Mattius, went above and beyond, guiding us through the menu with care and helping us select a wonderful Chilean wine that paired perfectly with our meal.

The food was amazing: The octopus was cooked and seasoned well and the ceviche was great. My favorite was the stewed conger eel; it was perfectly cooked (a bit caramelized and finished in a mirepoix stew that complemented the fish perfectly). The squid ink fideoes were fantastic. The service was slightly below average, but the food was so good I would certainly come back time and time again.

True definition of a 5 star restaurant, the food is phenomenal, incredible variety of seafood followed by an excellent service - they explained everything in detail, it was noticeable that staff is very well trained and attentive. This restaurant deserves prizes and nominations

Great meal with a fun intro into Chilean seafood and wine. Superb service, including descriptions and wine recommendations.

Cited by many locals as the best restaurant in Santiago, definitely worth the hype. One of the best seafood restaurants I’ve ever been to, ideal with a larger group to try more things. Amazing variety of crudo, ceviche, seafood towers, and many varieties of local fish, was truly a culinary highlight of our trip to Chile. If I lived in Santiago I'd go as often as possible and it would take a year or more to go through their extensive menu

The best Chilean Seafood we had, service was impeccable, the seafood was unique to Chile, the grilled octopus was perfect. Highly recommend. Upscale but not snobby.
