La Casona

Good place to go! The best part without any doubt was the free popcorn haha. They have live concerts and the ambient is good (not very loud music, because they have a lot of space, so you can talk with your partner very well). They are very good at making drinks and have healthy options in the menu (with is not usual in San Pedro).

The ambiance and service here were good, but unfortunately, the food was absolutely terrible. I would never come back to eat here again. I had a vegan Pil-Pil with mushrooms and a salad with salmon. Both tasted awful. My friend had a vegan burger, which she enjoyed.

Came in here when i saw it said local chilean cuisine. We ate on the terrace in the back. Pleasant live music. Ate the traditional corn dish pie with a borgoño drink. Overall great experience

Lousy service. Selective attention towards big groups, and less to no attention towards couples or single people like me. The waiters seemed to actively avoid eye contact in order not having to serve. Had 5 different waiters at my table, had to ask multiple times for the bill. At the end I gave feedback ‘a little more attention to the clients please’ and the waitress just replied: ‘yeah’. 😂 No manager present who keeps the mess in check. The food was okayish but wildly overpriced. No free side dishes, extra’s or garniture. And overall just a money machine, mass production tourist trap. I would recommend to avoid this place. Wouldn’t come here again.

If the food isn’t that important but you like atmosphere and live music this is the place for you. Food wasn’t bad (hamburger quite dry and asked for medium rare steak and got one that was closer to well done, the vegetables on the side were delicious and best part of the plate), but we had better and cheaper.

What a disappointment, the guy who brought us in was saying the is one of the best culinary experiences of San Pedro, although is his job to say that it puts a lot of pressure on the experience What happened was that I ordered a ribeye steak for 20.000 which is pricey for the region, but I thought it was worth it. Asked for a medium rare and receive a 95% cooked steak. The waiters were nice it was sent back to the kitchen, second time it came again strange. What happened I guess is that it must be frozen steak therefore cannot be cooked properly, it’s s shame. The steak looked so off I don’t even believe it was ribeye, but anyways, my advice is that if it’s hard to cook this dish, take off the menu and focus on what the restaurant can do fresh and better. Staff were really nice and the waiter took the feedback very well, nothing to complain about that. The ambience is beautiful too. In summary, the food is overpriced, and you can eat more fresh things for 1/3 in order places.

The food was excellent. Got the ribeye which seemed like a generous portion and topped with a local seaweed. The wait staff were friendly and during lunch the guy playing music was fantastic. Though very short i enjoyed my time here.

As a vegetarian, I found good options to enjoy. The food is tasty. What I loved most about this place was the music and the vibrant atmosphere. It’s not the cheapest place in town, but you’re kind of paying for the show, which is worthwhile !

Delicious and awesome backyard kind of vibe with live music! I've been craving a very GOOD solid burger with flavors from home and took a gamble with the Gringa Burger and wasn't disappointed. It came out with a delicious set of crispy fries and my burger was perfectly cooked with delicious flavor. My husband ordered the chicken Ceasar salad and I stole a few bites that totally hit the spot. I also get nervous of Ceasar salads with a heavy fish flavor while abroad and this dressing was perfection. It looks like a super nice restaurant up front but we chose to sit in the more casual backyard space where there's a bon fire and a stage. A trumpet and guitar player were performing some relaxed tunes and it was the perfect lunch!

Came here in search of Patel del Choclo, and it was amazing !!!! Best Pastel del Choclo in town . Great service and ambiance with live music at outdoor seating. Highly recommended.

Bom af highly recommended restaurant. Staff are super nice and a good chunk of them speak English. We sat down and were quickly served some Chileno puffy bread with salsa. Salsa was so good asked for more. Asked the server for recommendations but we were kinda feeling some ceviche but were like hold up we gonna eat ceviche in the middle of the desert?? Hell yes it was so dam good. Ended up getting the salmon carpaccio and salmon ceviche dishes. Both were fantastic. The carpaccio comes with capers, Parmesan cheese, lime (on the side) and some kind of green and a white sauce (sauce also on the side). The ceviche comes with avocados (palta in Chileno), mangos, red onions, crusty bread and crispy mango chips. So fkn good Wowzers. See pics below if u think I'm bullshitting. We also asked for any other recommendations to which we were encouraged to try the steak dish Estraña con Pastelera de maiz (pic below) which is served on a skillet. Twas glorious and comes with a red dipping sauce and corn side dish (corn dish is savage hot temperature don't burn your mouth). All the dishes were so good and we liked everything so much so that the waiter recommended we try a dessert and brought us the gold mine at the end which is almost like a creame brûlée but cold. Pic below. Perfect topping. Since we liked that so much too he asked if we have ever tried pisco so we had to try that too. Pic below. But we had the version that's with coca leaf. Fkn bommmmmm. At this altitude we felt it after one drink. All this came out to $80 fantastic

Stopped for my first real meal of San Pedro and while the ambiance here was nice, the food was not memorable. Also beware they advertise that they have WiFi, but in fact they do not. The steaks here were meh, especially after being spoiled with solid steaks in the weeks before thru South America.

we went here on a sunday afternoon and had a fabulous meal, equal to anything you'd get in a larger city. the food was incredibly fresh and artfully presented. as someone who loves local hot sauces, i was excited to see both fresh ají served with the bread when we sat down along with small bottles of a hot sauce i hadn't seen anywhere else on the table alongside the usual condiments. it's a nice touch that sets this place apart from others. the pastel de jaiba was amazing but probably too rich for one person to eat alone. i'd recommend ordering two to three things and sharing them all, which is what we did. the casona merluza was also very good and the salad with raw cubes of salmon and quinoa was surprisingly refreshing. this place was packed for lunch and i suspect it would be at dinner time as well. they have an extensive list of alcoholic drinks including many pisco varieties which travelers to the area will enjoy sampling (note: they are not cheap but if you know anything about the ongoing international "spat" between chile and peru for whose pisco is better, you'll appreciate the many options offered here.) the final tab worked out to about us$26 per person for a salad, two entrees and three natural juices. if you're looking to have one nice meal in san pedro, this would be a lovely option with national cuisine in the starring role.

Amazing mountain of meat! Charming environment. Great experience. Would have been 5 stars but for the inattentive staff. Solid Chilean food.

We had a great time at this restaurant last night. We ordered from the specials, I has "pollo pil pil" and my wife had the salmon. The salmon was perfectly cooked and my chicken was marvelous. I expected pil-pil in the Spanish sense, but it seems in chile it means something completely different. It was a slightly spicy sauce and it was great. We also shared a "mote con huesilo" for dessert. That, plus a Pisco sour and two glasses of wine for 30k clp was a good value for San Pedro de atacama. There was also some live music to boot.
