    We were casually visiting Santiago for business and someone recommended this place. To our shock, they wouldn’t let my partner in because he was wearing shorts (in a country where the average temp is 26C not really something I can understand). Anyways, after sitting out in the hot terrace for a while it started raining, so they decided to let us in anyway (🤷🏽‍♀️). However once we finally felt comfortable and ordered I have to say the food & wine were beyond my expectations and if it weren’t for the no-shorts policy I would definitely return again. The Tempranillo was really nice too. Service was excellent and the waiter was very patient with our “no-shorts discomfort”. If it wasn’t for the no-shorts thing I would definitely give 5 stars.

    (Translated by Google) La Taberna de Pepe is a restaurant with an excellent atmosphere. The friendliness and education of the waiters make the service a very good experience. The breadth of the menu allows to have an audience with different gastronomic tastes and inclinations. I found the kitchen only good, not bad, but I can not describe it as excellent either. The price versus quality, and the amount of the dishes has a small imbalance, personally I think that for the price one is paying the kitchen should be better. (Original) La Taberna de Pepe es un restaurante con un ambiente excelente. La amabilidad y la educación de los camareros hacen del servicio una muy buena experiencia. La amplitud del menú permite tener un público con gustos e inclinaciones gastronómicas diferentes. La cocina la encontré solo buena, no está nada mal, pero tampoco puedo describirla como excelente. El precio versus la calidad, y la cantidad de los platos tiene un pequeño desbalance, personalmente creo que por el precio que uno está pagando la cocina debe ser mejor.

    Very elegant place, the staff are very professional and attentive. This restaurant has a very elegant aesthetic brick walls and exposed piping give it a pleasant look. with ambient lighting that is very easy on the eyes. Two dining areas with seating for large groups or for just two. Nice soft music playing while you enjoy your meal.This must be one of the best wine selections in the area, also a bar area with a tv and a wide variety of liquor. Also has an outdoor dining area. The bathrooms are nice and clean.

    I was there a couple months back and it was nothing short of excellence! First of all they were kind enough to let me dine there with shorts and flip flops even though they have a dress code. It was a really hot day and I wasn't really in the mood to go all the way home to change (habia hambre). I don't think there was a single part of the meal I did not enjoy. The little bread...excellent! The steak...scrumptious! The tostones...to die for! The beer...vestida de novia, as it should be! Let's not forget whatever they put in that little Aladdin genie lamp...legendary! If the flights weren't so expensive I'd fly down there just to experience this meal again. PS: Please patrons...frequent this place often! Keep it in business so that next time I return to the motherland I may enjoy this majestic meal once more.

    Service was subpar, tomahawk steak was not tasty or seasoned, baby potatoes were too squishy. Drinks were good though. For a better experience both with service and food, Noah and Saga are a lot better and similar in price. I’m def not coming back to this place.

    Been here several times and the food never disappoints, it is one of my favorite spots in Santiago. My favorites are the Salmon with miso, honey and Moroccan rice, and as a drink DewarCline cocktail. DewarCline drinks was delicious, whisky with lime and Ginger, top notch. Salmon with miso, honey and Moroccan rice was very good and a recommended dish. The salmon was soft and the combination of the miso, honey , fingerling potatoes and Moroccan rice was a heavenly dish. As the cherry on the top, their service is top notch, Carlos(Supervisor) and the staff are always vigilant and making sure you are having a good experience. As long as the food and service the same, I will keep visiting this spot as many times as I can.

    Came here last night with a group of friends. There were 9 of us. We called in advance to make the reservation. As soon as we get there, table were ready for us. There’s a wine cellar in the back, immediately, my husband who is a sommelier walked into the cellar and begin his wine inspection. Because some of our friends love Cabernet Sauvignon from California, we decided to opened the bottle, but it was too sharp on the palate, it wasn’t a good choose and the price for that particular bottle was expensive. My husband suggested we should opened a Portugal bottle he had lay eye on before and it was half the price of the Cabernet. We opened it and had it side by side, the Portugal red was a win win! Throughout dinner, we had 2 more additional bottle of the Portuguese wine. We ordered a bunch of appetizers from dumplings to ceviche to eggplants to pulpo. Everything was delicious. For main course, we each order one. I had the pork rib. It was flavorful and tender. Highly recommended. Overall, we had a great experience. I must said know your wine. It could be intimidating.

    My husband and I stopped by Taberna de Pepe for dinner and it was outstanding! First of all private parking across the street, the ambiance with perfect- family friendly, dim lighting, nice decor and very clean. I ordered the “taberna de Pepe” cocktail and it was good (if you like fruity/sweet drinks) and we ordered El filete dorado with mashed potatoes and canelones de short ribs and the food was superb! The fish was super tasteful and fresh. Highly recommend!

  • 1/5 Y L. 7 months ago on Google
    We chose this restaurant because of the reviews which left us totally doubt founded. Out of the three main dishes we ordered, only one Ribeye dish was reasonable in taste. Extremely expensive, not even in the United States one would pay such a price. The other two dishes were horrible. One had about 3 shrimps chopped into pieces with burned cheese on the outside and inside. We informed the waiter about the horrible taste. Her superior came out to ensure that we were going to pay for it. She told us that that's a popular dish and that's the way the taste is. The other dish was the penne pasta with salmon. The pasta was undercooked with a lot of sauce and a piece of shredded salmon. We paid a little over $5000 pesos. I would not recommend this restaurant to no one.

  • 4/5 Sergio C. 1 year ago on Google
    Santiago's best cuisine! Try the tacos de barrigada, pan con tomate and the pulpo al carbón for entrance, main course the flat meet chifero or the tomahawk. For dessert the torta de maíz. They have an awesome selection of wines.

    (Translated by Google) Excellent service, a very pleasant atmosphere, the drinks are delicious and the food is magnificent. What I liked the most and I consider the most unique and good dessert I have ever eaten was a corn dessert (I can't remember the name) and I want to eat that every day of my life. I recommend this place 100%. If you want to have a good time, around good people, you can go to this place. It's a fancy place to spend, but it's worth it. (Original) Excelente servicio, un ambiente muy agradable, los tragos son riquísimos y la comida magnífica. Lo que más me gustó y considero es el postre más único y bueno que he comido fue uno de maiz (no recuerdo el nombre) y quiero comer eso todos los días de mi vida. Recomiendo este lugar 100%. Si quieres pasar un momento agradable, alrededor de gente bien, puedes ir a este lugar. Es un sitio elegante en donde vas a gastar, pero vale la pena.
