With a menu that changes so frequently it's not even printed, and a packed house most nights, this may be the best restaurant in Punta Arenas. There are eight daily specials, usually including a seafood, meat, and pasta option. The chef's recommendation will be something like king crab cannelloni with artichokes and fine herbs. They've recently moved into a larger location, in a refurbished old house in a residential area, far from the touristy-strip on O'Higgins. The service (mostly bilingual!) is more youthful, relaxed, and friendly than in the other traditional restaurants in town. Upstairs is the nonsmoking section. There is also a large wine list, and a funky bar on the main floor.
