“As an Angeleno visiting Santiago, especially Regoleta neighborhood, I highly recommend diving into the city’s international cuisine. Jess and La Bodeguilla offer a rare and beautiful slice of truly exceptional Spanish food made by Spanish Chilenos. In addition to a warm atmosphere, and a deliciously rustic Spanish restaurant interior, the wine list is one of the best in the city. Freshly caught clams, mouth-wateringly delicious olives and succulent slices of ham all available as tapas. As it should be, right.😉 Monumental in flavor and perfectly sophisticated in portions, the Paella is the best in the city and worth seeking out. I was blown away by every detail and the easy hospitality that flowed from everyone there.”

“Stopped in around 3pm and it was pretty empty. Fideuá and sangria both had excellent flavor. Didn't like that the waiter automatically added the tip without asking me when charging my card though”
