Get rid of the waiters trying to kidnap you into their places, find this little corner by the fish market and you won't be disappointed at all. Mares de Chile (box 83). ;)

Outstanding seafood soup with shrimps, clams, crabs, calamari, mussels ect! Avoid touristic restaurants in the middle. Eat at small local cafes next to fish displays.

We went to Tío Willy’s and loved everything! Caldillo de congrio, machas a la parmesana, seafood empanadas were the best we’ve had so far!

It's a nice market, it's not a must visit place in Santiago. The seafood is fresh, but the staff just want you to buy'em, when you refuse, they get angry and don't even look at your face.

Must go if you are tourist - skip the middle huge touristy restaurants and "eat from the borders" - Tio Lucho's is a great option!

Amazing mariscos/seafood here!! Not to miss if you love seafood. The side restaurants are cheaper and just as good

Unfortunately the experience is less pleasant because the vendors swarm you to try and convince you to eat at their place. It makes the experience stressful. Did not end up eating anywhere.

Fish market and lots of restaurants, very crowded and noisy like a market has to be

We came for picorocos, giant barnacles. El galeon told us they were not in season and we believed them. So sad. It was a lie. We went inside to Don Augusto and they had them here. Shop around!

Possui excelentes opções de refeição, principalmente pra quem deseja experimentar a famosa Centolla! Uma dica:Não pare no primeiro restaurante. Pesquise antes! Comemos no El Galeon. Gostei muito

A centolla é maravilhosa, vale á pena comer esse famoso prato chileno. Outra dica é sair da muvuca da entrada, onde os garçons insistem para entrarmos, lá dentro tem lugares mais tranquilos e baratos.

Visita Obrigatória para comer CENTOLLA (king crab), é CARO, DELICIOSO😋, vale cada💰! O chato é o cheiro e o assédio dos vendedores, ignore e vá comer sua 🦀!!

Si te quieres evitar sorpresas a la hora de pagar, mirar bien las cartas de precios antes de pedir, sobre todo en Donde Augusto. Lugar lindo pero muy turistizado.

Vale a pena apenas pra quem tem curiosidade de experimentar o carangueijo gigante(centolla).E msm assim é caro pelo o que oferecem:R$480,00 um carangueijo com aproximadamente 2kg. Serviu 4 pessoas.

Se não for almoçar evite ir nesse horário pelo forte assédios dos restaurantes. pela manhã cedo é mais tranquilo, e as lojas de artesanatos e lembranças vale a pena.

Onde se vende os peixes e afins, é intransitável. Impossível não sair com alguns espirros na roupa. Onde estão os restaurantes, vc não consegue andar sem ser abordado por algum garçom.

É... um aglomerado de restaurantes proprios para turista$. Pela importância histórica vale a visita, mas prepare o bolso. Aos lados do galpão de restaurantes sim... é um mercado do povo, bom!

Uma explosão de aromas. Tive a oportunidade de comprar peixe fresquinho, temperos e verduras típicas e assar no apart hotel que me hospedei. Experiência incrível.

Tem excelentes restaurantes. Mas o prato principal é peixe. Após andar um pouco no mercado principal, vale apenas atravessar a rua principal do mercado Central e comprar frutas frescas.
