O local não existe mais, já faz um certo tempo. Estivemos lá em fev 2023.vários blogs e amigos indicando o local de suas viagens passadas, mas chegamos ao endereço e tinha fechado, não existe mais.

I ordered shrimp cocktail (cold), to start and fish of the day. I waited for 30 minutes then my appetiser and main course were served together. Obviously, they have never been to a restaurant themselves. It wasn’t cheap but even in the most basic restaurants, you serve courses separately. Spoiled the meal which incidentally, was delicious.

Unfortunately I have to confirm the unfriendly service.completely opposite to usual Colombian behavior

La mujer que nos atendió una actitud horrible, nada delicada ni atenta parecía que le tocaba estar ahí, una lastima porque era rico pero ni ganas de dejarle propina, la cual igual cobro y por no entrar en discusión nos fuimos, una pena porque al ir al baño las cocineras tenían mejor actitud que ella.

Excellent salad bowls, very fresh, hearty salad and delicious vinaigrette. Service was very good, helpful and kind. We ate inside with nice music and no interruptions.

The food was fantastic and I could not fault it at all! I had the prawns and muscles rice in coconut sauce. It had lots and lots of flavour and was a large portion, perfectly cooked.
The drink on the other hand was blended with too much ice and had no flavour.

Hermoso lugar que me acompaño en toda mi estadía en Cartagena porque no encontré algo que lo superara en la relación calidad precio. Comida extremadamente rica y sabrosa, porciones muy bien servidas. Tragos deliciosos. La atención es muy buena.
Sin dudas que si vuelvo a Cartagena, volveré a este lugar.

Amazing food, great service, great prices, great drinks on a lovely square - sit outside! Would recommend!

Nos tomamos una cerveza con la idea de palpar el ambiente nocturno de la ciudad vieja. Estuve haciendo mis cálculos sentado en la terraza. Pasaron vendedores y gente pidiendo, creo que uno cada 2 minutos. El personal es amable. Pero la terraza es un sufrimiento para el turista.

I had a drink and a starter. The starter took a looooong time to arrive, the drink was below average. Location is great for enjoying the park and cool wind breeze

Un paseo de tarde de domingo para disfrutar de la Ciudad Bonita. Muy chévere la subida en el teleférico

Simply delicious! We went twice and it was not so crowded, we do not understand why.as it offers such a great Caribbean food!

Ordered crispy fishpieces, not so hard that you can't put your fork into them, with black burned pieces. Next course shrimps. So overcooked and tough that the skewer woudn't come out and even broke. The rest of the course was of a consistancy that I couldn't tell what it was. Desert ice on a browny. A browny should not have a tough crust on it and should be fluffy. Paying with a credit card is an adventure, they walk around with the handheld to get some wifi signal.
In all, despite it's reputation, a bac place to eat. I don't rocommend this place!

Enjoyed a wonderful lunch. It just tasted really good while reasonably priced. Unfortunately, the waitress had spent all smiles of the day so we enjoyed coffee elsewhere. ;-)

Great food. Had the carne Negra. Waitress was also friendly. Nice views, but street sellers are annoying here as well as elsewhere in the town.

The salads were amazing and staff is very nice. The bad thing about this place is the amount of people trying to sell you something while you are eating (specially if you are seating outside)

Excelente lugar para compartir con la familia y amigos, podrás deleitarte con platos ricos y típicos de la ciudad

If I could rate less than one star, I will. I went there with my family (april 11), the service was terrible. They took more than 40 mins to bring the beverage. The waiter commented rudely to one of my guests because he ordered the food without onions. My other guest had to eat with a fork her dessert because they never brought it with a spoon—no water on tables, high prices for poor service and regular food. They never offered the desert from what they call the "special", but charged it on the bill. When I said: look we have been here for a long time just remove it from the bill, we cant wait more. She said wont, and that she would just pack it for us to go. That's not the way you treat a customer. Don't stop by here.

Sitio agradable con mesas hacia una calle bastante animada que permite disfrutar de la brisa cartagenera

Saff here did not wear a mask properly and they kept talking without wearing a mask holding a class of drink before delivering it to me. I was keep watching it. And then I complained about it. But they did not give a new one. I DID NOT DRINK and WAST MONEY. They do not understand what the problem is.

Overall taste was good but my fish was very tough. Either overcooked or cooked a while ago and reheated.

This was my second time in this restaurant and it was also the second time that we were the only guests who first sat outside, then others joined us. That was completely incomprehensible to me, because the food was great and they also had draft beer, which is really a rarity here in Colombia.

No estuvo mal.

La pista negra se promociona como un gran plato, y la verdad, se queda bastante corto.

No es como la pintan.

A hidden gem! Looks like just another restaurant facing Plaza Santísimo but this is so much more. A fine dining experience where every dish can be counted upon for excellence. We came back after several years, a location change (due to COVID) and the food was still incredible!

Buenas tardes mi nombre es juan sebastian Caicedo tuve la oportunidad de celebrar mi primera comunión en él Santísimo gracias por la decoración la comida increible felicitaciones lo malo que el restaurante no me dieron mi regalo de mi primera comunión gracias

Es un buen sitio para estar en grupo tomar unas cervezas o sangría bajo los arboles del parque.lo mejor es que puedes sentir la brisa que viene del mar

Food here is great.
I got the fruits, scrambled eggs, a slice of bread and everything was cooked to perfection.

The pineapple juice is a must.

Lugarzinho bem atraente. A comida é gostosa mas cara. Tem lugares tão bons por preços mais acessíveis. Sobremesas bem diferentes, pedi um pudim de café (la ira) mas não foi o doce mais incrível que como. O espresso, como em todos os lugares que tomei na Colômbia, é bem fraco então não curti tanto. Vale pelo local. A noite enche então é bom reservar

Os peixes, frutos do mar, caldos colombianos como o “Sancocho”, são o carro chefe de vários restaurantes. Preparados ao vapor, cozidos, grelhados ou com molhos e servidos com coco, banana da terra e coentro.todos são bem feitos e deliciosamente apetitosos. E é o que acontece no já bem conhecido @elsantisimorestaurante, que recentemente completou uma década. O chef e proprietário, Federíco Vega, aplica técnicas Cordon Bleu aos ingredientes caribenhos.

A comida é excelente. 5 estrelas. Porém, o atendimento deixa muito a desejar. Você entra no restaurante achando que vai viver um experiência positiva e vai embora completamente frustrado.

Was pretty disappointing, the place looks great and the ambient is fantastic, the service wasnt good and the food was mediocre (fish of the day) try ordering something else maybe it will be better)

We did only appetizers so we could try a variety of dishes and it was amazing. The ceviche is the best.

I stumbled upon this restaurant on New Years Eve since I did not make reservations in advance (we landed earlier that afternoon). It catered towards an older, more sophisticated crowd as the tables were only partially full while most other
popular, hip places were full for the night, not taking any walk-ins, or were closed for the holiday (e.g, Carmen, Candé, Juan Del Mar, La Cevicheria). Surprisingly the places with outdoor seating were super crowded and overbooked, while this place with air conditioning was not. The restaurant is fully indoors with good air conditioning.

They had a prefixed 3-course menu with bottomless drinks (3 hours) for $450.000 COP (~$135). The appetizers were small but flavors were good. The entree portions were decently sized and nothing less of delicious. I was very impressed with their sea bass and stewed beef. Dessert was simple— featuring different ways to pair their unique milk ice cream flavor. There was a chocolate crepe style with the ice cream wrapped within like a dumpling. The other was a peach cobbler like pairing.

Although the staff spoke little to no English, they did try their best to communicate with their customers and were genuinely kind (Not the fake nice seen at other establishments). They tried to remain attentive with all tables and ensured that we had a good time and were taken care of. I could not remember a moment when one of my wine glasses was empty. Always checked in to pour more Prosecco.

Truthfully this place is understated! The food was delicious and well crafted and the wine selection was decent! I would recommend coming here for dinner if you want a more sophisticated, less hyped up meal. Also, definitely worth coming again if they have other opportunities for bottomless champagne.

Very fancy location and great quality dishes that play with the Caribbean tradition, giving them a modern touch.

This by far was the BEST restaurant I’ve eaten at in Cartagena. I chose this place to be my last meal here and it was SO worth it. Everything I ate was delicious. I had a passion fruit mojito and that was also amazing. If you come here, get the salmon, you won’t be disappointed. The dessert was probably my favorite part even though I couldn’t finish it because I was so full. I had the brownie with ice cream. The plating and flavors at this restaurant were superb. I came here alone but I would definitely recommend this spot to couples who want a nice romantic spot to eat at.

Muy buen restaurante buena atención la presentacion de los platos tanto entradas impecables y la comida deliciosa

Apesar de na nossa noite termos sido os unicos no restaurante a comida estava otima. Vale a pena a experiência

El Santisimo es uno de los otros veteranos restaurantes en cartagena de Indias. Su trayectoria y excelente servicio lo han mantenido entre los primeros lugares de locales y viajeros. En sus inicios, El Santisimo apostaba a la propuesta de usar la gastronomía francesa como estandarte gastronómica, pero con los años ha sido la florida gastronomía local la que se ha ganado el corazón de los comensales. Federico, el chef y creador de el Santisimo describe su cocina como el perfecto balance entre la buena cocina y el sabor local demarcado por los condimentos y la frescura de los ingredientes tanto como por la decoración de sus platos, que es, un verdadero gusto probar. Combinaciones de arroces perfumados, plátanos maduros cocidos, frutas de exóticos sabores y la fresca pesca del día que llegan a sus puertas por los pescadores locales aseguran la mejor experiencia en este mesón local. Iniciamos nuestro menú con el increíble y fresco carpaccio de pulpo, perfumado con una deliciosa vinagreta. En segundo lugar probamos la famosa posta cartagenera, una deliciosa carne hecha con panela y cocacola acompañado de arroz de coco y por supuesto los maduros en tentación. Para seguir probando con nuestros amigos nos fuimos con los camarones rebosados, acompañados de frescas verduras salteadas y para terminar pedimos dos postres: la crepe de chocolate y la canasta de helado local.

Muy rica la comida, con excelente presentación, su personal muy atento y dispuesto a que pases una excelente experiencia en el lugar.

The food was ok, it wasn’t the best. The service was slow the night I came and that was most likely do to the fact they had an event the night I went. I would recommend trying this place but definitely would not put it at the top of your list of places to try.

Have visited this restaurant several times, it's a great experience. Definitely ask about the promoción with appetizer + dinner + dessert + drinks for 2 hours (125.000 COP on this most recent visit). And I do recommend getting a reservation, depending on the night it can get crowded. But they have a good variety of dishes available and have been able to handle larger groups well.

By far the best restaurant in Cartagena! The food was delicious with lots of flavors. It was not your typical Colombian dishes. I loved my dish, I had the Trinity is a fish in a sauce with Moro rice and plantains in a avocado mash. We really enjoyed the appetizers, the best one was the eggplant one. Everything was amazing, I definitely will be back to this restaurant. I highly recommended everyone to go and tried their delicious food!

La verdad es q los jugos por muy natural q digan son muy malos. No me gustaron ni a mi mujer ni a mi

Especial
Uma deliciosa comida Cartagenera, com um atendimento primoroso.
Claro - o preço acompanha. Mas vale cada centavo.
Uma ótima opção para comer bem na Ciudad Murallada.

Un excelente restaurante en la ciudad amurallada de Cartagena, buen menú variado, buena oferta de vinos muy buena atención vale la pena visitarlo

Realmente es un sitio ameno, de ambiente acogedor, de una comida excelente y un tempranillo de casa exquisito.

Exquisito, excelente comida, atención y música de fondo, como para compartir con tu pareja, destaca la sencillez de su interior en madera burda.

Comida muito boa. Experimentei o salmão e estava uma delícia. E foi o melhor café expresso que tomei em Cartagena.

Food is very nice, menu has some good pickings. We had the meal and drink plan they offered. Got three courses to pick and free drinks.for the evening.
There could have been a better selection for the deserts, but except of that the food was tasty and portions big enough.
The drinks included in the plan, was nearly all menu. Could also pick some good liquors and they made sure that they also get us new drinks as soon as the old ones got empty.

Attentive staff in the restaurant and a friendly head waiter.

Se les ha subido el éxito a la cabeza. Fui hace 3 años y todo fue espectacular. El sábado pasado traté de ir a cenar con 3 amigos y estaba todo reservado. Eran las 19.30 y vimos en la hoja de reservas que había dos reservas para cuatro personas a las 21.00, de modo que había tiempo suficiente para que cenáramos. Lo comentamos a la chica que nos estaba atendiendo pero no nos dejó entrar porque esas eran las instrucciones de la gerencia, dijo. Fuimos a cenar a otro restaurante, también lleno, en el que consiguieron hacernos un hueco. No vuelvo a poner un pie allí

Our best dining experience in Cartagena. The food is just amazing and the atmosphere is lovely. We had reservations for 7: 30 as on Thursdays, Fridays and Saturdays they have live music! Don't forget to try their "Gula" dessert, it's a must have!

Sin dudar le doy 5 estrellas. Lugar tranquilo, con un poco de buen música en vivo el fin de semana (fuimos un sábado la primera vez) muy buena atención de los/las mozos que estuvieron atentos y ágiles siempre.
Dejo la comida para lo último por ser algo supremo! Fuimos 2 veces en los días que estuvimos y todo lo que probamos estuvo muy bien! El precio es razonable. Y más aún cuando tienen el menú degustación.

Nous avons bien mangé. A défaut d'être surpris par nos mets, nous avons apprécié la quantité. Ils ont un forfait entrée / plat / dessert avec les boissons a volonté pdt 2h. C'est intéressant mais les vins proposés ne sont pas de premier ordre.

Excelente atención. Lugar acogedor. Siempre me siento como en casa. La comida fuera de serie: fusión cartagenera. La carta es toda una experiencia. Todo lo que pidan es rico. Mis favoritos: pañuelos de novicia, coro marinero y por supuesto lujuria de postre. No en vano es mi restaurante favorito por 17 años y contando!
