Avenida Providencia 1373, Metro Manuel Montt, Providencia, Santiago, Chile

Fodor's "This extremely popular picada is always packed, so you might have to wait to be seated in the chandelier-lighted dining room or at one of the tables that spill out onto the sidewalk." Full review
Frommer's "For a lighter meal, a sandwich, or a late-night snack in a spot loaded with character, stop by this unpretentious café-bar in Providencia." Full review
DK Eyewitness "One of Santiago’s best restaurants for its lively atmosphere, attentive service, and delicious cuisine."
Rough Guide "Dishes include pork ribs in mustard sauce, sea bass with capers, and pot roast. There are two other branches, but this one is the best. "

Don Carlos 2892, Santiago, Chile
From $5/night
Fodor's "Breakfast is served all day at this storefront restaurant—something that's almost unheard of in Chile."
Frommer's "This bustling yet unassuming cafe is simply the best spot in El Bosque for lunch, the reason why you'll have to wait 15 minutes or so for a table if you arrive after 1:30pm." Full review
DK Eyewitness "The most popular restaurant with expatriates, principally because it is one of the few eateries that serves a full and delicious breakfast."
Rough Guide "Brunch...complete with eggs Benedict, French toast and fine coffee, is a Sunday ritual for many expats. "
