5 Excellent service. The food was to die for and the wine selection beyond belief. Worth it!!!!!!!!
5 Great service, really professional (rare in Chile) Good food. I had the hamburger al plato and creme Brule. They just need a better play list for their music!
5 Fui por más de una semana a la playa de la Serena y este fue uno de los pocos lugares a los que volvía a cenar o a darme un gustito por su amplia variedad de comida tanto en el restaurante como la cafeteria (Ojo que tiene opciones sin azúcar) Además cabe destacar la excelente atención por parte del personal, siempre fueron muy amables y atentos. ¡Y son Pet-Friendly! Así que 10/10
5 En mi visita a serena, tuve la oportunidad de comer en lugares maravillosos. Uno de ellos: Fontana Beach. Productos frescos, preparados en el mismo lugar (pastas y masas) y una atención 10 de 10. Debo destacar la atención y amabilidad de Edwin (Capitán de Servicio) quien nos orientó en cada momento. Precios acorde al sabor del producto. Recomendado.
5 Very good pastries, quick service. The overall atmosphere feels very casual and ideal for a quick snack. There was a full restaurant service but this time we didn’t try it. Recommended!
5 The kitchen closes at 10 PM, so even if you go in at 9:30 PM they will still be friendly and kind and take your order without rushing you. Food was delicious and very well made. Great experience, would definitely come again.
4 A rather small and cozy place, with lots of seafood and meat options and some vegetarian ones, and a rather limited but still quite good wine chart. The waiters are very polite and attentive, making you feel at home at all times. Highly recommended, especially for those looking for well prepared and fresh seafood.
