La Casona
A large, lively home-style Chilean restaurant in a colonial-era house; its clay-pot corn pie is the signature, and it suits families and groups.
Located at Caracoles 195, this large restaurant occupies a colonial-style old house and has a bar and a big terrace. It is lively and well suited to families and groups. The signature is pastel de choclo, corn pie baked in a piping-hot clay bowl, and there is a vegetarian version too. For drinks, try the strawberry red wine Borgoña or Terremoto, a potent Chilean cocktail. Reviewers suggest sticking with traditional Chilean dishes like corn pie and empanadas, as pricier items such as steaks offer less value for money. About 20,000-30,000 CLP per person, within walking distance of the town center.
