My only negative, though a smaller one was the ability to communicate with our server. He was a very nice young man, but he knew very little English. I had to call the manager. Ask for bilingual and your problem is solved.

Don't get me wrong, my family and I went there on Saturday, on a day when the restaurant was full, it's understandable that the team was almost stressed.

We went there for lunch on the 30th of December 2019. They have both an English and Spanish menu. The decor and general...setting is very well done and comfortable. This place would be great in the evenings too. We ordered the Tuna Carnitas, Abuela’s soup, Cheese with chorizo queso, the meat tacos with marrow, fries, and guacamole. I thought the tuna was too dry and did not each much of it. The soup was delicious but be warned it is spicy. It has beans, meat, bacon bits, and other deliciousness cooked into it. The cheese and chorizo queso was amazing and definitely something to try if you like that kind of stuff. The meat tacos were tender and full of flavor. Can’t really mess up fries and guacamole, although we have been places that managed that, the fries are seasoned and the guacamole was just right. Fresh and flavorful. We live in Texas and have our fair share of Tex-Mex food which we love. This was my first trip to Tijuana and they love their lime and chili flavor. I am not going to say anything bad about it just informing the reader. Service was great and the food was fresh. We spent about $60US and was very satisfied we could easily have spent more back in the US.
