We went for a quick visit---to see the water color paintings of the Shackleton expedition and rescue along the walls. Not a very cozy pub, though.

Delicious and well priced - drinks a bit pricey though. Interesting house beer. We loved the Pichanga for two. We also noticed the burgers that others ordered looked amazing.

This place has great location and large menu. But you will be ignored as a tourist. Took 15 minutes for the waitress to take our order. Ordered 2 beers and 2 gyros. The beer came out quick and we proceeded to be ignored for the next 30 minutes. After 2 tables got and finished their order, I waved at the waitress and at the guy staring at me from behind the bar. Finally my husband asked how long it would be for our gyros. The waitress had an English speaking customer translate and said no order. So at 10pm no dinner for us and no apology. The food did look good.

We went with friends here for dinner upon the recommendation of a local after our Antarctica trip and it surely did not disappoint.The selection of food and wine was quite good, not limited to seafood and it seems to be popular with the locals. The prices are very reasonable. And when I mentioned that it was my husband's birthday and we were treating friends, the manager was so nice to offer to sing for him and give him a little cake. Nice gesture.Would recommend this restaurant if you want to experience local food in Punta Arenas.

This restaurant is in need of a refreshment to walls and furnishing. Tablecloth was dirty, service was not exactly enthusiastic. And food was sub-optimal (maybe one shouldn't pick pasta and risotto when in Punta Arenas.... still, one could expect the grated cheese not to be old and rancid). Wouldn't recommend unless you are really hungry.

We had a great lunch here on a Sunday afternoon when little else was open. Restaurant was packed with large extended local families in for an after-church meal. We had the pizza with Jason Serrano and greens, and it was terrific. Highly recommend.

I ate at Dino's Pizza while recently in Punta arenas with my partner. Apparently the locals rave about this place. I visited it with my Western palate and was less than impressed. The place serves pizza, sandwiches and burgers in a very basic atmosphere with slow but friendly service. The pizza costs 5000 regular or 10000 peso for grande (which can easily feed 2). Unfortunately the Hawaian Pizza we ordered was more cheese than dough, with sprinkles of ham and pineapple. It wasn't the tastiest and left both myself and my partner with a bloated, gaseous feeling. The cost was 14100 (grande pizza + 2 drinks), as they add a 10% tip on the bill. Definitely not good value given the poor quality of the meal. Not recommended.

Hard to believe we'd find such terrific pizza near the literal end of the world but we did at Mesite Grande. We split the large #7 vegetarian pizza and it was fabulous. Great crust and toppings. Too bad we didn't have more time in town to return and sample other toppings.

We went to Damiana Elena last night on the recommendation of a friend from PA and the great reviews on TripAdvisor. Unfortunately we had a very disappointing experience- which seemed to be mostly the management and service, although the food was not as good as we expected. The first clue was booking. I had booked via Facebook, but not received a response. So as soon as we arrived in PA and they opened last night, I telephoned. They only speak Spanish but fortunately mine was good enough. The woman who took my call said they do not check email or Facebook messages as they are far to busy for that. So I made a reservation for 9pm last night. We arrived on time to find the restaurant in a charming Victorian era house, in a residential area just out of the CBD. The ambience is very nice. The restaurant was about half full. The Maitre D explained that they do not have a written menu as it changes every day, that the waitress would be over soon to go through the menu of the day. Cool idea, but they would have been better with a blackboard menu or printing it out every day because it was complex with at least 8 starters and 14 mains (as far as we could tell). Too many to easily recall without the waitress having to go over it. Not just for us, but for the other tables too. But she was very patient. We ordered drinks: Calafate Sour and a Pear juice. - both delicious. For starters, we ordered the Huanaco Jamón (more like a jerky) and the Smoked salmón. Both good but simple dishes which surprisingly took over an hour to arrive (so now 10:20 pm). Thatâs too long for such simple dishes. During this period no-one came back to us to ask if we wanted a drink or to tell us about the delay. But we were entertained as we watched with interest the wait staff ( about 4 for approx 20 diners at say 8 tables so should be enough) racing around without apparent co-ordination or a system. I eventually attracted a waiters attention to order a glass of wine. For mains, I had a traditional pork dish and she had a second starter (fortunately not hungry) of prawns al pil pil. Both good but not outstanding- which was a pity. The pork was smoked which was interesting- but as a result a bit dry. The advertised sweet potato mash mysteriously became billed potatoes, the apple and cabbage sourkraut was average. But the portions are enormous! Not just ours but the other tables too. We were aware the pasta is the house specialty but had decided to try something more traditional. Perhaps we should have had the pasta. We also overheard several tables also grumbling about the slow service, or food not quite up to par. So it was not just us. Then we went to leave. By now itâs well after 11pm. We asked the waiter to order a taxi, he was very unhelpful - saying that will take at least half an hour. He suggested we go out and wait in the street. After waiting for a while we decided to walk back to the hotel, which was about a mile away. Fortunately we both had comfortable shoes on. So overall a 4 for ambience, a 3 for the food and 1 for the service so I am giving them a 2 which is the lowest TripAdviser score I have given in a long while. Thatâs a pity, because I do think it has the potential to be an excellent restaurant, but it needs a little less pretentiousness and a little more thought about the guest experience. Simplification of the menu and speedier service would be a start.
