What Travellers Say
Reviews Summary
Foodtropolis is celebrated as a vibrant and family-friendly food truck park offering a wide variety of delicious options at reasonable prices. Diners love the energetic atmosphere, diverse food choices, and the dedicated play area for children. However, some patrons have noted occasional long waits for orders and one review mentioned an instance of poor customer service.
"One of my favorite places in Santiago. Great spot to try different types of foods, have some drinks and spent time with family. They also have a play area for kids so they can enjoy themselves. Definitely check it out!"
Christian Ortega
"This place contains many other smaller businesses for food and drinks inside. It also has a multitude of sitting areas whether you're sitting in that large open area below or a deck above. Although I did not eat anything there as it did not have food that pertained to my particular appetite at that moment, it seems like a great place to hang out with friends, grab a drink, something to eat and relax."
Sid W
"A great place to relax with friends and enjoy a bite. One of the best features is its variety—there are smaller food and drink spots within, offering more choices to suit different tastes. There are numerous seating options to choose from, ranging from the bustling open space below to the tranquil deck above. It is ideally suited for individuals who value a comfortable setting, however, please be prepared to wait for your order."
