Restaurant Brisa is popular with by-passers and tourists. Walking over the boulevard in the afternoon we were tempting for tea. The restaurant belongs to an upscale hotel. Surprisingly service is extremely client unfriendly.We had to wait while a most arrogant young waitress ignored us. We called her for ordering tea and we got our teas. So far so good. We asked for the bill she kept us waiting for 14 minutes. We paid in cash with a large note. Immediately she asked that the difference was for her.With her unpleasant attitude we found a tip of 110% inappropriate and we said so. She disappeared and again ignored us. We has to ask for the change. The change came incomplete, she simply had taken a tip of 45%. In Chile a tip of 10% is normal.We had to walk after her to note that the change was incorrect. From unfriendly and arrogance she turned to a chutzpah. She simply said that the tip of 45% is her money. We were flabbergasted. Such a behaviour is unacceptable, even for someone who has $ signs in her eyes.When you like a most arrogant waitress who openly is stealing a tip from a guest, restaurant Brisa is the place for you. Otherwise avoid this place by any means.

Estación la Serena is a bar and a restaurant. "Cactus Bar and Beer" serves food from nect door Teodoro (pizza). They brew their own red ale and lager (rather a pale ale). The pisco sour is great. The restaurant, "Teodoro" serves large size but bland and tasteless pizza. It is difficult to ruin a pizza but this places does. I would recommend this place for drinks, but not for food.

Restaurant is close to the observatory campus which is where I was staying. Small, family run affairwhich appears clean and comfortable. Menus in Spanish only (whereas the restaurants on the beach have Spanish/English menus) but we managed somehow. Food was typical Peruvian andmy fellow diners were all happy with their choices - the ceviche was particularly good. I had abeef dish that was nice but served with Peruvian-style fries and rice ... not sure you need 2 starches per plate. Also "Pervuian-style fries" are almost always undercooked. That aside, Iwould return and give them another go.

No es un lugar gourmet, pero sà de comida casera y de ambiente familiar, en una zona de La Serena que no es por cierto la más elegante (La Higuera entre González Videla y Cisternas. Comimos cazuela de ave y se notaba que no era pollo de supermercado sino de granja. Estaba bien preparada y con una ensaladita de entrada y postre incluido en el precio. El corazón de café estaba delicioso. El precio del menú de lunes a viernes es de 4500 pesos sin bebida. Es un buen precio. También el resto del menú tiene precios razonables. Quizás, se ve algo descuidado en la estética interna aunque en el verano incluyeron música en vivo. Es una buena alternativa, pensando que muy a menudo el precio de ese almuerzo en otros lugares de moda de La Serena equivale a un sandwich de carne.

From the many reviews I read about the main choice at this place.. Pizza.. I thought we were in for a real treat. We ordered the Siciliana (Ham,Tomato,Olives,Salami,Bacon) It sounds great, Yet when we received it we both looked at it and just sighed. It's one of those moments you just sit back and think "do I even want to start this"The pizza base was thin, (not crispy like it should have been) it was soft and floppy. The cheese was not mozzarella but processed cheese of some sort that was barely even melted. The ham was of the lowest quality, the bacon was practically raw, the whole thing was just a mess. Now, I've eaten pizzas all around the world, Some of the finest and some of the worst but this was definitely in the top 20 worst. I've eaten better pizzas at Pizza Hut. I would strongly avoid pizzas at this place unless you like simple and bland.Not sure how the rest of the menu fairs but I don't hold much hope.
