The natural lighting casting gentle shadows inside complements the rustic decor, framing a scene that subtly encourages a slow, measured enjoyment of each dish. Feedback from various visitors contributes to a collective perspective that praises the kitchen’s sincerity, although some may note the pace of service occasionally fluctuates with busier evenings.

Plates arrive carrying a harmony of textures and flavors that seem designed to evoke the local palate, notably the shellfish selections that appear in numerous Restaurantes Don Gaiferos reviews floating online.

Very nice place hidden at the corner of the street! The seafood is very fresh! The steak was nice n juicy. The server, Erika, was incredibly patient in explaining the dishes to us. She was so kind and friendly, and we had a very pleasant time there!

After trying to get food for 1h running around Santiago, we got here, the only place that had the kitchen open. Food was ok, fair for the price and the service was nice. The restaurant has interesting looks

Great service. High Quality food. And all this in a cool, traditional place in a stone-paved road, under stone arches, just a couple minutes from the main square

If only I could give more stars… I have to admit that I first wasn’t sure to go in, as the place doesn’t look so attractive from the outside, but from the moment on I saw the amazing variety of sea food dishes and the desserts, I was thrilled! The food is amazing and the staff super friendly. I can just recommend this restaurant.

The service here and the quality of the food was exceptionally good. The wines are a very good range of local and regional varieties. I was spoiled for choice. I highly recommend this restaurant, if you can get a booking. Enjoy!
