Find out what Spanish restaurants to try in Iquique. Iquique (Spanish pronunciation: [iˈkike]) is a port city and commune in northern Chile, capital of both the Iquique Province and Tarapacá Region. It lies on the Pacific coast, west of the Pampa del Tamarugal which is part of Atacama Desert. It had a population of 180,601 according to the 2012 census. It is also the main commune of the Greater Iquique. The city developed during the heyday of the saltpetre mining in Atacama Desert in the 19th century.

This restaurant has its activities in an old fancy building which is an attraction in itself. Spanish decorations (don Quichotte), mosaics, really a amazing building.The food was great. We took fish which was fresh and tasty. Price : 14.000 pesos/person wine included.

Local pequeño en el cuál tuvimos la suerte de llegar a una hora sin mucho movimiento, pedimos calamar andaluza, nada de otro mundo, el rebozado esta un poco pasado a fritura, luego Lomo Ibérico y Napoleón Res, también no tenÃa nada de especial pero se les paso la mano en la sal en ambos platos, la salsa estaba muy salada que no se pudo disfrutar del sabor, serÃa bueno que pudieran mejorar los aspectos mencionados.

One of the good things is they have a daily special on their menu from which you can choose a soup (which I recommend) or a salad. They have many options for the main course and some desserts somehow not as great as the meals you can enjoy in this place. Do try the fresh local fish in any of the variety of preparations. If with any doubt just ask your waitress, very helpful.Thank you so much for sharing your experience in La Cucarda Morrina. We feel happy to be well recognized...after the great daily loving effort to satisfy our clients with tasty products and nice service....

This small restaurant was recommended to us by a local. The atmosphere is simple and family oriented with fantastic service by knowledgeable staff. The food is very regional and the portions are huge. We ordered two plateados de vacuno and could barely finish it; they were delicious, well prepared (according to the Chilean I went with) and extremely filling. It was 100% worth the price and the visit; would come back again.
