Frommer's Review

This is hands down my favorite restaurant in Viña del Mar because it combines all the elements of an enjoyable dining experience: owner-attended, a pleasant waitstaff, delectable fresh pastas and seafood, and a trattoria-style dining area that's cheery during the day, and romantic at night. For an aperitif, order a pisco sour -- this restaurant is known for their delicious Peruvian variety. Also, their wine list is extensive and offers excellent value for the price. My favorite dishes here are the "black" raviolis made with calamari ink and stuffed with curried shrimp, and the fettuccine with lamb and rosemary. Divino Pecado specializes in "boutique" fish, that is, specialty fish such as sole, the delicate mero (grouper), and tuna, and there are meats such as filet mignon. Pastas here are served very al dente, so let your waiter know how you would like your noodles cooked.

About Our System

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.

Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.

The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
