The Restaurant at Mandarin Oriental, Santiago

"There are three restaurants, specializing in Thai, Japanese, and Mediterranean"

"As you might guess from the pair of golden lions flanking the entrance, the theme is vaguely Asian, which is why two of the three restaurants are Thai and Japanese"

"Two bars and three international restaurants include a high-end Japanese option, as well as Senso for Mediterranean food and an outstanding Chilean wine selection"

"Its Thai, Japanese and Italian restaurants all have excellent reputations"

"The Thai kitchen at Anakena restaurant turns out spicy curries and traditional wok-cooked noodle dishes like shrimp pad thai that's easily the city's best"

"The sprawling, tropical-style pool area and spa are idyllic, restaurants world class, and the decor sophisticated"

"A nearby shopping mall, the city's biggest, is packed with restaurants and stores that often pull guests away from the dining outlets here"

"• Oenophiles, take note: the flagship Senso restaurant offers an all-Chilean wine list featuring many small producers and hard-to-find labels"
