" What a fantastic dining experience! The moment we walked into Don Quijote, we were greeted by a vibrant atmosphere filled with the sounds of live Spanish music. The paella was packed with flavors, and you could tell it was made with fresh, quality ingredients. The service was impeccable — our server was attentive without being overbearing. We will definitely make this a regular stop on our trips to Valparaiso. " (*Curated Review*)

" Disappointing! The bread was stale, and the dishes didn't live up to the hype. I expected a lot more from a restaurant famed for its Spanish cooking. On top of the poor food quality, the service was subpar and inattentive. I wouldn't recommend it to friends after this experience. " (*Curated Review*)

" What a gem! I was blown away by the warm, friendly service and the inviting ambiance. The fish was cooked to perfection, and the dessert was the best I've ever had. The homemade flavors reminded me of my grandmother's cooking. I love that the owners come and personally check on their guests. It’s a lovely experience! " (*Curated Review*)

" Had a lovely dinner with friends celebrating a birthday. The paella was particularly impressive, loads of shrimp and saffron -- perfect for the occasion! The waitstaff was attentive, checking on us often to ensure we had everything we needed. I can’t wait to come back and try more of their delicious menu! " (*Curated Review*)

" Had dinner at Don Quijote for the first time last week. Wow! The tapas were outstanding and the main course left us wanting to come back for more. The atmosphere was cozy and charming, making it a great spot for date night. The service was friendly, and the price was fair for the quality of food we received. Highly recommended!

" Don Quijote is a treasure hiding in plain sight! We stumbled upon it during a trip, and it has become a favorite ever since. The gluten-free dishes they offer are an added bonus for those with dietary restrictions. Every dish was flavorful and the dessert was divine! Highly recommend the chocolate flan! " (*Curated Review*)

" Simply delightful! From the moment we walked in, the decor and ambiance set the tone for a great meal. The flavors of the dishes transported me straight to Spain. I can't recommend the paella enough; it's a must-try! The service was also fantastic, making our night even better. Will definitely return! " (*Curated Review*)
