Opiniones de King and Queen Cantina Chula Vista
We had an amazing experience! The food was delicious and the drinks were superb! Alonso gave the best recommendations!! Would love to come again!
The espresso martinis and flight of mimosas were only topped by the amazing food and service. Tony is an amazing waiter and bartender very attentive and kind. We had the Huevos Ahogados Birria and Asada Chilaquiles and we devoured it. 10/10 recommend and will absolutely return soon.
This place was perfect for our needs. The food was delicious. The drinks went down too quickly in the best way. We tried to avoid the TVs and while that was impossible, we found a seat in the corner that offered beautiful views of the water. Denise was delightful- an attentive and enthusiastic server who made everything even better. Great stop in! Two thumbs up 👍👍
The quality of the seafood and mixed drinks was amazing. I highly recommend King and Queen for any special occasion, as the atmosphere and service are well-suited for creating lasting impressions. Such a vibe ! I wanted to take a moment to express my appreciation for the exceptional service provided by Leo, our server at King and Queen. His attentiveness and enthusiasm significantly contributed to making our birthday celebration a memorable experience by setting the vibe with a dessert and birthday wishes. He has a great personality and made us feel welcome and made Alejandra feel extra special on her birthday.
Food was delicious. Always love the cheese enchiladas. Came for taco Tuesday and happy hour. Good deal. The music this time was nice and calm making an enjoyable environment to eat in. Sometimes the music can be too loud and aggressive but not this time. Our server Leo was great! Took such good care of us and made sure we got everything we needed and more. He was handling the entire upstairs area but we never felt forgotten.
Cam here solo for the great food and cocktails by Rosete, would highly recommend very friendly food tastes amazing and quick service, cocktails are great, Rosete can whip you up anything to your taste and they taste amazing!!! Very relaxed and they make you feel welcome! Leo is a fantastic host and has lots of recommendations from the menu! Satisfied customer! Will always recommend and come back with out a doubt!
I went during their happy hour and sat at the bar, so there was no wait. I had a mojito and the pork belly nachos. The pork belly brought nachos to a whole new level. The chips were made in house and stayed crispy the entire time I was eating them. The combination of flavours was perfection.
I went to this place twice, back to back. I went to the bar both nights on the second floor. Nice restaurant with neon colors around the place. The drinks are very yummy (I had a strawberry marg the first day and then the marg flight the second day). The food was also very tasty. The first night I had the crispy avocado tacos and the second night I had taco de la Sierra. Both were 🤌🏽 and food was ready fast.
You won’t want to miss the vibrant energy of @kingandqueencantina right in the heart of @littleitalysd . The atmosphere is electric and stylish, with colorful walls that add a bold, beautiful touch, the food is amazingly served and so tasty, My fav was Tinga Taquitos with the 3 different dips, my sis felt in the love with the Mayan Grilled Salmon.
Amazing, well executed, inventive Mexican food + cool vibes + incredible service. This is the place to go! PLUS super reasonable prices for the quality of what you get. This is place is an experience not be missed in SD! They offer many different events through the week with discounts etc, what makes it even more interesting. Make sure to check out!

Literally some of the best food I've ever had, ever! The service was fantastic and the ambience is hard to explain, it's fun, I sat in the rooftop bar area and it was perfect.
Great location, great ambiance, great drinks, and excellent food! Try the Taco Tuesday deals. Always a great stop for a few drinks, happy hour, and/or a big dinner.

Stopped in for a late lunch. There was no wait since I was solo. I went to the bar upstairs. I ordered fish tacos and a drink at the bar. Service, food, and atmosphere were great!

Went with some friends for brunch. It had great service and the waiters were attentive. We all ordered and the food came out fast. I had the Machaca Birria and eggs. My 4 stars comes from it not being a big portion. It was 16 dollars and I was still hungry at the end. My friend also got a meal and said their meat portion was smaller than expected. At the food was tasty just small portions
A good place for breakfast. The food was really good even though they got my order a bit wrong (guess they ran out of bacon or I was misheard). No matter, it was still excellent as the meat was sliced thinly, as I like. Service was good as was the atmosphere. Would have been nice to see different sports on the many monitors.
I pass this place quite often and finally had the chance to try it with a fellow yelp elite! The overall vibe of this place reminds me of a place you'd go to late at night if you wanted to drink, eat…
Service and Food was good but $36 for three tacos and chips and guac???? Never again!
Dropped by for lunch on a taco Tuesday, and not an unpleasant experience! Quick service, friendly staff, clean cantina vibes, and decent bites.\n\nI opted for the cucumber mocktail, and wasn't bad,…
Parking downtown is horrible but this place is worth it. clean, great food and views of the city and TVs.
Food was good. Pricey even for happy hour but tasty food. Ambiance was a bit loud but it was almost 11pm when we got there. It was clubesque. Service was quick and helpful.
My husband and I went for dinner and it was very good. The menu is a little eclectic and we weren’t sure what to expect but we ended up picking some great choices. The taquitos were really crispy and…

I couldn’t believe their happy hour and the selection. Loved the old fashioned and the price. It was perfect. I got the chips and guacamole. It was alright. Also ordered the roasted veggies taco but they were quite greasy. Didn’t realize the beans in the tacos aren’t vegetarian until after I saw a recent posting. If they were cooked in lard, the dish shouldn’t be listed under vegetarian. I checked prior to ordering to see if the sauce was vegan and I was advised it was. I didn’t realize I also needed to verify the dish that’s listed as vegetarian to actually be vegetarian.
I decided to drop by Kings and Queens on a Saturday afternoon around 2:40 and I chose to sit at a table outside with my young son and was not approached or even acknowledged by the server for over five minutes (in total 10mins before I had to say something). The server gave me eye contact a few times and still decided to take other table’s orders and clear tables. I was the only table on the patio, so there isn’t a reason to not come over to the table. Another table was sat and provided cutlery and acknowledged by other employees as they entered at the restaurant and were sat. I don’t want to believe that this is a race issue, but I do want to clarify that the table that was sat before me was white family and the other tables that were getting serviced were either Mexican or white. While I am a Latino, I am not fair skinned. I eventually had to approach the host stand and asked to speak to a manager. Once I asked to speak to a manager, then a server approached to ask for my order. In addition to that, the manager ended up coming back to the table to tell me that he told them to take my order fast. The issue here isn’t about speed of service because I never got service. The fact that the manager told me that he told the kitchen or whoever to make my food fast tells me that he wasn’t listening to what I was telling him to begin with. I wasn’t looking for any comp services, I wanted to get an understanding as to why everyone else in the restaurant was being serviced, but me. It’s a very simple question. The manager could’ve said he was super busy or could’ve acknowledged the fact that he noticed I was the only person on the patio with no other patrons in front of me or behind me. My issue is that everyone who entered that restaurant was being acknowledged, a.k.a. getting cutlery, getting water, being acknowledged in the restaurant. When I entered the restaurant and decided to sit on the patio it was as if I didn’t exist. That is my issue. The server saw me multiple times and even serviced a table that was towards the front of the restaurant on the patio. So he saw me again because it was in diagonal line sight of the table he was servicing!! Once they brought my order, they never brought cutlery and at this point I was just fed up. I got up and left. The service here is absolutely terrible and I will definitely not be returning. I’ll ensure that I spread the word about this restaurant and its poor preferential treatment and services.
It was a horrible experience, a waste of money. We had been there once before; the food is good, not gonna lie, but their service is horrible. We sat down and were promptly approached for drinks, all good until we tried ordering. We were trying to get a shrimp platter, but he said no shrimp, so we ordered an appetizer for a chance to revise our order and adapt to there being no shrimp. Our drinks came and we attempted placing an order again, and again we were told no fish either. So then we requested sushi, he said no sushi either, so we attempted to order pork belly. THAT'S when I became frustrated. Why give a menu if nothing is available other than options containing asada or chicken? Maybe an alternative print-out menu so people aren't being given the runaround because nothing is available. We ordered appetizers and drinks, paid 100 dlls, and were disappointed. We wasted our money and time; we'd be better off at a Taqueria than there.
