$$-$$$$, Seafood, Providencia
Fodor's Review:
One of Santiago's most elegant dining rooms, Mare Nostrum doesn't look like a seafood restaurant. In fact, the only clue that it specializes in fish is the subtle ship's-wheel pattern in the deep blue carpeting. All the effort here is on the food, which leans toward Peruvian specialties like seviche (raw fish marinated in citrus) and tiradito (similar, but covered in a pepper sauce). A standout is the ambrosia de pulpo, a spicy grilled octopus. The friendly staff is happy to help you negotiate the menu or pick just the right wine.
