    For those of you that expand their horizon and visit Mexico. You must try these delicious empanadas!! They are like a big wonton. They are made to order and you can see the owner making them right there and using fresh ingredients. They are so fluffy, crispy out the outside and light in the inside. I absolutely love the Hawaiian one! It has mozzarella cheese, fresh pineapple, and ham. They accompany them with a chipotle sauce and it just ties the entire dish together! Bam huge explosion in my mouth! Their apple pie empanada tastes just like a McDonald's apple pie but better! It's delicious. They have a combo, where you get 2 empanadas of your choice, along with a side of delicious, fresh salad and a side of freshly made mint lemonade. These empanadas are crack! You can't just have one. After that first bite, you'll keep wanting more.

    Walk all the way down to get to the low key spot!

    The illest food court I've ever been to. It's located on Revolution avenue. You gotta go down a narrow hallway to get to the food court. When I visited they had a sushi/ramen joint, a burger spot, empanadas, a beer spot & I can't remember the rest. A total of 9 businesses though, hence the name. You order at their counter and they'll bring the food to you. The beer spot has their own indoor seating if it's cold out and you don't want to freeze in the patio. Definitely a hangout spot to munch, drink & kick it. Your Homegirl, Violy

    The Cochi Burger from Indie burgers along with the garlic fries. The pizza is great, try the pepperoni sausage! The empanadas try the Argentinian, the classic and the marlin ones. For beer try the Rice IPA on draft by Wendlandt. The Insurgente craft beers are a must my favorite is the Hops & Chill

    Ummmm where am I? Because Colectivo9 belongs in the center of any city and sticks out like a (pretty) sore thumb in TJ. It's a plaza with several modern looking mini-shops that face in to a very mod courtyard with spots for you to sit and partake of whatever you desire. There are artisanal empanadas. There's a cool little bar with craft beer and wine. There's greek food There's wifi There's a little shopping area There is a sushi station There are delicate macarons There are beautiful burgers It's a super cool little oasis with a choose-your-own-adventure feel. If you're looking for a spot to duck into and enjoy the beautiful weather and some bites, this is it.

    You guys have to check it this place if you're a foodie or if you like cool chill spots to have a crepe and frappe, or some sushi with a side of fried rice , seriously you have to try a cajeta frappe it's one of Mexico's favorite caramel, bring cash of course if you want some shrimp pasta the best I've ever had in Mexico, so far lol they have bathrooms as well, 5 pesos if you're not eating there. If you want to find a new fit there are cool shops next door that sell insta fashion, I'll attach some pics I took!

    When a friend told me that there was a really cool place in one of the alley on Revolucion, I honesty did not believe her. But one day before going to the bars at Callejon de la Sexta we stop for something to eat. Basically the idea is kind of a mix of food court/truck idea. They have a nice selection of food, by now I've had the burgers (Indie Burger), the Japanese rice bowl (Tatami), the empanadas Argentinian style (1987 Empanadas), and of course many of their beers (Barrica 9). Yes it has a mini beer bar, with a good selection of Mexican craft beers (some are local). If I am in the area it is one of my favorite spot to eat.

    Ramen and dark craft beer

    This is the food court at Avenida Revolucion with 9 restaurants with different styles of dishes. Next to it is a pub with craft beer, you can bring beer to your meal. I ordered Ramen and dark craft beer. I like wooden tables there. There is also a restroom in this place. Worth visiting. The price of a meal with craft beer is not more than the US $ 10.

    Ramen and miso at tatami, awesome. The indie burger (from indie burgers, where else) is very good and great value with wedge potatoes and a soda. Pick up a double IPA from Barrica 9 to round it off. Great place, right in the middle of the revolucion ave, watch for the black alley like entrance.

    Solo good!

    A great place for lunch or dinner, or even some drinks. Its fun and energetic, and the food itself served by the restaurants is very enjoyable. My only recommendation is to open for service at 11:00 am not 1:00 pm.

    Amazing hidden gem in the heart of Tijuana! What an exquisite menu each restaurant offers. True chefs cooking art for you. I attended the Yelp Tijuana Launch Party here and it was a great success! Big turnout, great people, amazing food, and awesome venue. Thanks Yelp and Colectivo 9! Can't wait to go back :)

    Wow this place is awesome. I heard about this place through the TJ Yelp Launch Party. For those who don't know, Colectivo 9 is a hidden gem off Revolution Avenue which has a variety of cuisines in a circle with seating in the middle. The place is very aesthetic and very clean. I went to get a burger at Indie Burger but they said they were sold out so I settled for a beer at Barrica. I had a 20 ounce beer on-tap and it was delicious. Basically I came on a Sunday evening to relax and try out a different spot and left pretty impressed. I am planning on organizing a meetup expedition to Colectivo 9 in a few weeks. Disfruta!

Everything was cooked and presentation was very well put. The staff here have been here a while as I recognize them throughout the years of being here. The food is good but I will say they have a freezer temp issue cause multiple times here I got ice cream and it was freezer burned. I dint expect much but just thought I let some of you know. Everything else was great. All my food and presentation of it, I can't complain. My ducks were also spot on and left me ready to crash after the festivities. The prices are REALLY good in my opinion. The service is also good and people watching. Mannn you witness so much stuff from that balcony lol but I'll let you tell it. Stay safe and enjoy. Ohhh they take Apple Pay there which is a huge plus from those not wanting to use their actual cc. Music there is usually a nice house mix and the ambiance is good inside. It's the outside views you need to look out for. I swear this place is a GTA 5 server in real life lol.

    He visitado Barrikas, Slowburger, Beverly Burgers, Indie Burgers, Mark Burgers, Nantli Burger,…read moreBurger Jack, Hulk's Y Truck 91. Esta son mis preferidas. (pueden revisar mi perfil para leer las demas) En estados unidos no es comun el concepto de un restaurante con un menú limitado, y si In-And-Out es exitoso, es por que se enfocan en hacer una sola cosa bien. Y te puedo decir que prefiero Yo Mommaz Burgers a In-And-Out. Las papas de In-And-Out tiene una textura de cartón y la carne aunque esta simple en sazón, algo le falta. Y aunque son mis favoritas, nunca he visitado este lugar (siempre pido por Uber Eats). El Menú es aun mas simple que In-And-Out. Las Hamburguesas son riquísimas, todo fresco, la carne jugosa, el pan simple sin quitarle la atención a los demás, con su salsa secreta y pepinillos bien balanceado. Creo que el dueño hace algunos años creo un post en reddit tijuana donde invitaba a su establecimiento y el decia que llegó a trabajar en In-And-Out, y mis respeto que le quedan mejor que en la franquicia. Las papas estan en su punto. Las papas regulares son crujientes y nada aceitosa. Las que son estilo la casa son picante y con queso, tiene un picante-dulce muy inusual pero son deliciosas. Nunca he probado las de cilantro, ni las malteadas. No conozco el lugar físicamente y no puedo hacer recomendaciones. Pero si asi estan para llevar, no me imagino lo buenas que deben de estar recién hechas en el restaurante. Las recomiendo muchísimo. EDIT 6/19/2020: Las papas fritas con cilantro las recomiendo mucho! Aprecio que tengan bebidas que no sean solo de la marca Coca-cola. He pedido unas 6 veces de aquí y nunca me ha tocado una mala hamburguesa.

The Zona Rio location has a small dining area, that is very popular with both the locals and visitors. It is easy to see why. Their menu does not over dose on the standard morning and afternoon items that you would find anyplace. However, this is the first restaurant I've been to in Tijuana, that does not have an English menu.... so I had to labor through the Spanish menu. But, they do have unique dishes, thus making the visit adventurous, because it is difficult to choose. I went back and forth, and finally settled for their 3-egg omelet with asparagus and sheep cheese. It came with refried beans, strings of carrots and beets, small fired up tostadas and fresh tortillas (both blue and yellow corn). A small side of soggy chilaquiles was also served. A small flavorful salsa tray is also provided with 3 options, ranging from mild to hot. The asparagus spears were thin, cut up into small pieces and sautéed with mild spices. The outer egg covering soft and not overdone. If anything, there was too much sheep cheese, in certain portions of the omelet. I say this because it was an asparagus omelet, and it, instead of the cheese, should have been the star. Still, it did not take away from the other commendable aspects of the complete entree and its accompaniments. Before the meal, a small refreshing fruit plate is served. Coffee and overall service here, was mucho excellente.
