Parrilla Candil SteakHouse

Parrilla Candil SteakHouse is a welcoming steakhouse located just minutes from the center of Santa Cruz, in Chile’s Colchagua Valley. Set along Camino a Lalajuela, the restaurant offers a relaxed, family-friendly atmosphere ideal for gathering with friends or loved ones. Rustic decor and spacious seating set the tone for traditional Chilean hospitality.

The menu highlights a variety of grilled meats, including premium cuts of beef, ribs, and chicken, expertly prepared on the open parrilla. Guests can enjoy regional appetizers, fresh salads, and seafood options—such as ceviche and grilled octopus—with generous portions across the menu. Side dishes like house-made potato chips and local vegetables round out each meal. For families, there is a dedicated kid’s menu with several choices.

Known for its approachable service, Parrilla Candil is open for both lunch and dinner. It is well suited for group outings, casual celebrations, and travelers seeking an authentic steakhouse experience in Colchagua wine country. Wine lovers can select from local bottles, with the restaurant offering corkage service, though guests should note the wine list is modest relative to its location in wine country.

Parking is available on-site, and advance reservations are recommended, especially during weekends and holidays.
