Wait-staff spoke English so I asked for his recommendation - Fried Fish, shrimp, and calamari with thinly slide onions and tomatoes. Food was served hot and was very delicious. Wife ordered Lomo Saltos (Beef in a sauce) which was also very tasty and pieces of...meat were very tender. Service was friendly and efficient and helpful since they spoke English. This is a place I would return to if I ever return to the area.More
Nice food and good environment. We ordered Lomo Saltado and Estofado de Carne al Vino y Champiñones. Lomo Saltado was really delicious with tender meat and very tasty. Estofado de carne had a great risotto but the meat was a bit tough. Make sure to...ask for a knife that can cut meat. Overall, a good experience.More
Due to the Covid-19 pandemic, they are only serving at the terrace and they follow the Covid-19 protocols. Our Peruvian server was very nice. We went there to eat ceviche and he recommended the ceviche del norte and the fisherman plate. This last one has...a fish tiradito with rocoto sauce, fingers of fried fish and a causa with tomato and avocado. The fish fingers had tartar sauce. We were amazed at the size of the dishes, both were huge and they were really good. To drink we had artisan lager beer (Volcanes del Sur) and a mint ginger lemonade. This restaurant is not cheap but the size and quality of the dishes are worth it. Total bill with tip CLP 40k (about 56 bucks). This restaurant is part of the Gastón Acurio group.More
Depending on the time you visit it could get a little hard to get a table, but it is totally worthy. Very well done dishes full of Peruvian flavors, the pisco sour was superb, dessert delicious (if have any room left). Service is great. Very...very good choice to enjoy delicious food.More
It is located in the mall Alto Las Condes, in the outside terrazza on the top floor. I was there at lunch, the atmosphere is relaxed despite it was quite crowded, there is a lot of space, tables are not too close, service is professional...and quick. Ceviche is fresh and good, I took the Norteño, my friend the Classic, with soda and coffee we paid 38.000 CLP.More
As usual, I had a good experience in Tanta. I enjoyed a lot the octopus and tiraditos. I recommend it.
Two of us had dinner there. Chicken skewers with rice and a burger with guacamole. The burger can only be ordered well done or medium-well done! Lots of food but nothing to write home about!
One of the best Lomo Saltado that I have had in years. Great service. Good options in the menu. Location is excellent.
It was an OK place to eat; little bit crowded. The tonque I ordered was a little bit overcooked. Fast service.
Over the years Astrid and Gaston's Tanta restaurant in Parque Arauco is on a downhill slide. What started out as one more unit of the successful Tanta chain has deteriorated to an expensive and tasteless Chilean adaption of classical Peruvian recipes. Tonight's Pulpo al Olivo...was smothered with a bland concotion that appeared to be a pinkish gooey pseudo mayonaisse with small chunks of brown olive (not the traditional dark purple olives). Little squares of tasteless red peppers substituted the hot Rocoto chili of the original recipe. The "Plato del Pescador" was bland, even the Tiradito sauce wasn't hot enough to cover the slimy consistency and foul smell of the fish. The "Pollo Nikei" had a large cold serving of rice topped off with an overcooked greasy piece of chicken. The duty manager´s excuse for the disgrace of the Plato del Pescador was that the bland taste was consistent with their Chilean clients' preference. No answer to our complaint for the slimy and foul tasting fish. However it was not charged to our bill. Definitely avoid this place. There are great eateries in the vecinity.More
I expected great Ceviche which is a basic staple of any Peruvian restaurant.. I ordered the Ceviche and was VERY disappointed. My colleague also ordered the lomo saltado and i was not impressed as well. The meal was just not as tasty as I have...eaten in Peru.. I am comparing to what I have had in Peru, so maybe its not a fair comparison but when going to a Peruvian restaurant I expect at a minimum that the food be similar to what I get in Peru...More
Ceviche was decent, so were the anticuchos de corazon....they claimed they were grilled heart bits, but actually baked , so not as good as expected!
I've been to Tanta many times for lunch and dinner and have always loved eating there. It is my go-to restaurant whenever I visit the mall. It can be a little pricey but definitely worth every penny.
I have been to the Tanta in Parque Arauco over 10 times and thoroughly enjoy it. The fresh juices are superb. Everyone always likes the food, and it’s reasonably priced. I prefer the lomo saltado empanadas or main dish, and everyone has liked the food.
We had two nice meals at this restaurant when we visited Santiago in Dec 2017. Therefore, we chose to eat at this restaurant again when we visited Santiago in Dec 2018. Unfortunately, this time the experience was not as good as last year. Firstly, the...menu has been changed and no longer so interesting. The level of food taste also dropped. Secondly, we gave 52, 000 CLP when our bill was 48,000 CLP (considering the service was so so, we gave 4, 000 CLP tips). Surprisingly, the waiter (without name badge) came back to us to ask for more tips! In order not to make it a scene, we paid another 1,000 CLP. The fact was that the bill was 48,000 CLP in total without indicating any mandatory service charge! We would certainly be happily to give more tips if the service was good! Thirdly, after we finished our dinner, both my husband and my son felt discomfort in tummy. Overall, we will not return to this restaurant if we visit Santiago again next time.More
