Restaurants cuisine du monde Magallanes

Renovated a few years ago (more space and light, with a second floor flanked by a small terrace for smokers), this address is as colourful and warm as ever. For very reasonable prices, Alfredo and his wife Lorena (they speak good French) offer a mixed menu that inspires the taste buds (it changes every six months). Ceviche or garlic soup as a starter, rabbit stew or guanaco to continue... it's a treat. Very popular, even with locals: remember to book in the evening.

In an exceptional setting, on the edge of the fjord, you will discover the succulent French fusion cuisine of Chef Hernán Basso, a true cordon bleu. Let yourself be seduced by the hare à l'escabèche, the homemade smoked salmon or the giant crab salad; continue with a divine fillet of guanaco, a southern whiting, a lamb mouse with Roquefort and red wine). Or would you rather have beef or lamb? In any case, be sure to leave room for desserts: the lemon and strawberry tart from Natales and the vanilla and manjar millefeuille are exquisite!

This restaurant, all in yellow and blue and pleasantly decorated, with its large shelves full of wine bottles, offers a varied menu and fairly well prepared dishes. The speciality: the chupe de centolla: a succulent giant crab gratin ! Most of the time everything is very good and the menu is rather cheap: starter, main course, dessert and glass of wine, a good value for money! Don't forget to place your place of origin on the map! A classic, often crowded: sometimes you have to wait a long time before you get served.

This restaurant, officially the most famous in Punta Arenas according to the locals, offers traditional Chilean and international cuisine that doesn't really convince anymore. Don José offers king crab and cordero al palo, as well as other local specialties. You can even stop by the kitchen and watch the lamb being cooked on its spit. In addition to a pleasant Patagonian experience and very friendly service, you are sure to find something to your liking. The menu is generous and will satisfy both adults and children. A really nice family address.

Fish and seafood specialties(chupe de centolla, scallops, garlic shrimp, conger eel, fresh crab, salmon...), but also cordero. Smiling and friendly service in a typical and local environment. A very chilena address and popular with locals. Opened by the chef Manuel Marín, highly esteemed and respected in the town, this restaurant is still in operation despite the death of its creator and offers small dishes of very good quality. A typical address promising flavors and generosity.

This restaurant is still new and has a nice setting (wood, portholes...) and offers a varied menu and local flavours. The dishes are relatively copious and good value for money (fish, seafood, barbecued meats, etc.). A lot of locals meet for lunch: normal, the menu is really cheap. It's a perfect fit because there are dishes for all tastes and budgets. However, we recommend more meat, fish and seafood that sometimes lack flavour.

As its name suggests, this small restaurant with its rustic atmosphere and architecture (wooden slices and pebbles on the walls) offers very good wood-fired pizzas, lamb in all its forms, salmon, pasta and sandwiches. The dishes are homemade and relatively copious. The good news is that the kitchen closes late (sometimes until 1am), so this is the address to remember for freshly landed and particularly hungry travellers! The music playlist is nice, you can even make your own suggestions!

Not really typical because it is brand new, this market offers on the first floor fish shops that flatter the eyes of greedy travelers: huge conger eels and giant crabs in season, but also ceviches in trays for a cheap price. On the second floor, a few small restaurants offer seafood (around $5,000 a dish), including chupe de centolla. Finally, on the top floor, the Vistamar restaurant offers a more varied and elaborate menu, with a beautiful view of the waterfront. A touristy place but very nice.

This small Chilean restaurant is very popular with locals. It mainly serves southern specialties such as cordero (mutton) or paila marina (seafood and fish soup), but also sandwiches. The service is very fast, immediately ordered, immediately served and the dishes are very copious. The cuisine is neither refined nor delicate but certainly nourishing. Order the lamb, cooked on embers, it is the emblematic dish of the house and the meat is delicious. A local canteen that does the job perfectly.
