Baco runs the deepest by the glass program in Providencia from a corner room at Nueva de Lyon 113. The day's open bottles go up on chalkboards, and the boards change daily.
The kitchen is French bistro, the cellar is Chilean and French, and the service hours run straight from lunch through 12:30am, Monday to Saturday.
Tripadvisor ranks it in Santiago's top 100 restaurants at 4.5, on the strength of the wine program more than the food.
A large indoor dining room and a covered outdoor section, both laid out around the chalkboards.
It reads more bistro than bar. Solo drinkers do best at the counter, where the sommeliers pour and explain without ceremony.
Yelp reviewers call the list spectacular and the by the glass selection large. Trust the staff pick over the menu default.
Lunch belongs to Providencia office tables. Evenings shift to couples and wine students working the boards.
Queues form at peak dinner hours; one Tripadvisor review signs off see you in line. Book, or eat early.
