First time dining here for lunch and it was amazing! We ordered the queso fundido, chile relleno and shrimp tacos. The chile relleno ans one of the best I’ve had. Everything was delicious and the service was top notch. I’ll definitely be coming back again.

Our first restaurant upon our arrival to SD yesterday. I had an IPA cerveza with the guacamole salad, made at the table and both my wife I ordered refried beans, her’s with a tortilla. Great service and the place is finely decorated including planters along the parking lot outside dinning.

So good! Came a few minutes before 6 so were able to take advantage of the happy hour specials and tried 3 different street tacos - shrimp, chicken, and steak. The steak was my favorite but the standout of the night was the queso fundido. The salsa and tortillas were both super fresh. Our server, David, was fantastic and was patient enough to let me practice my Spanish. Will be back to try the lobster and the fish tacos!

My Boyfriend and I ate here on 8/23/24, around 7:30pm-ish. We were greeted right away and we asked for an outside table. The ambiance was very nice and romantic with the outdoor lights and intimate table for two. The host, brought us chips and salsa, and took our first drink order; which was brought out fairly quickly. Cesar was our server, and I noticed he was also bartending. This made me appreciate the teamwork between the host and server, in the beginning, until Cesar came to greet us. Cesar, even though having to make drinks, I assume for the restaurant, was still attentive, friendly, and on point with the drinks and serving us. The food was really good. It had lots of flavor and the portion was pretty big. We ordered the Shrimp Enchiladas, and the Chicken mole, and lastly for dessert we had the Coco flan. Pros: no wait time, parking available-no charge, server was friendly and on point, food and drinks were good, as well as, portion and price. Con: I would have liked it if the server told us his name without me asking for it; so the switch from host to server would have been more understandable.

Great spot to get good Mexican food, it was delicious. Started off with the chips and amazing salsa but the guacamole made table side was even better. Had the crab enchiladas and steak burritos, portions were ginormous and taste didn’t disappoint. The hibiscus margarita was also great and slowly creeps up on you. Overall, a wonderful experience and definitely a place to visit again.

Amazing neighborhood gem. The decor inside and out are amazing. Flavors on the food are not to excessive and the portion sizes are just right. The brunch menu has Mexican staples and unlimited mimosas at a great price.

Very good Mexican food and very tasty fresh handmade tortillas. Pricing is a bit high, but the portions are reasonable. The staff was friendly and helpful. Overall I recommend you stop by and give them a try when you’re in the neighborhood.

Ortega's is our go to for dinner when we're in San Diego. Make a reservation if you can and go on an empty stomach. The flour tortillas and the sangria do not disappoint.

Let's start off by saying that the Google pictures alone helped us picked this place.... We got here we where greeted upon arrival, the location it self looks extremely beautiful and upper class Mexican restaurant a true Bistro look to it. Pics of some attached, very inviting and from what we saw they where dog friendly in the patio area. The food it's self was amazing presantaion, taste great and feels you up. Only thing I can actually say is that the salsa would be better if it was not blended for the chip's Yes they serve you chips... Great service. Overall if I lived here in San Diego I be here a lot and will be here next time we are in town. By the way there is a Pic of the restroom here and if it's kept this beautiful I can imagine how clean the kitchen is.

This restaurant is a bit pricier than what my family and I usually eat so I was a bit skeptical at first. Then they brought out the chips and salsa and at first I thought "oh nice, free chips." But trust me when I say their salsa is amazing and their chips we're still warm from the frier. I don't have a very good spice tolerance so I was ecstatic to find the salsa wasn't very spicy. That was definitely the highlight of the food. We then ordered a steak dish and fish dish for around $25 each and the size certainly wasn't as generous as the refillable chips. Admittedly, the fish was delicious (mahi mahi fish, highly recommend). However, the condiments were average (bean dip and rice) and the steak (we ordered it medium well) was very chewy. I swear I spent a whole 2 minutes chewing the same piece of thumb sized beef. Overall, some of the food was really good, some not so much. What really made up for the disappointing beef was the atmosphere of the restaurant. Despite being a bigger than average building, both interior and exterior expressed a homey, welcoming ambiance. There were a lot of decorative pieces and potted plants that really complimented the building. There were also a few string lights near the front and a candle in the middle of each table (we came while it was still light out and sadly didn't get to experience the candles). There's also a few tables for outdoor seating and a bar attached to the restaurant. With all the goods and bads (mainly goods) said, this was a pretty solid restaurant ┻⁠┻⁠︵⁠¯⁠\⁠(⁠ツ⁠)⁠/⁠¯⁠︵⁠┻⁠┻
