Karai by Mitsuharu and Ambrosia hold the next two places.
-
Rank 1. Boragó
Chilean Peruvian
Rodolfo Guzmán works with over 200 foragers and small producers across Chile, so the tasting menu here reads less like a wine list and more like a field guide. Boragó is a fine-dining destination in Vitacura, Santiago, built around native Chilean ingredients, Mapuche foodways, and a research obsession that extends to an on-site food science center. It holds a spot on the World's 50 Best Restaurants and the Latin America's 50 Best Icon Award 2025.

Rank 2. Karai by Mitsuharu
Nikkei
Nikkei cuisine, the Japanese-Peruvian tradition that runs through Lima's Maido, lands inside the W Santiago as a Chilean chapter. Mitsuharu Tsumura's restaurant filters his philosophy through local seafood and ingredients, with counter seats facing chefs who torch and dress each course in plain view. Ranked among Latin America's 50 Best, it has the calm confidence of a place that has decided exactly what it is and simply gets on with it.

Rank 3. Ambrosia
Peruvian
A converted house in Vitacura carved into several dining rooms, Ambrosia is a family-run restaurant where Chilean and French cooking fold into each other with the ease of something practiced over many years. Carolina Bazán runs the kitchen; her partner runs the wine. The à la carte menu lands somewhere between classy and deeply comfortable, which is a harder target to hit than it sounds.

Rank 3. La Mesa
Peruvian
The dining room was designed around a resident oak tree, which sets the tone for this sustainability-minded restaurant in Vitacura. The chef trained in France before coming home to Chile, and the South American cooking reflects that: precise technique, local producers, no fuss. Two terraces slow the afternoon down nicely. The 50 Best named it a Discovery pick.

Rank 3. Osaka
Nikkei
Nikkei cuisine, the Peruvian-Japanese fusion that sounds like a food-trend pitch but has actual roots, is what this polished Santiago restaurant has built its reputation on. The kitchen works Chilean fish and seafood into ceviches and creative sushi, and the wok handles smoked pork belly alongside tacu tacu. The room in Vitacura reads sleek and grown-up, so dress accordingly. A Discovery selection from Latin America's 50 Best.
