    Quesadilla de pulp enchilado (spicy octopus), about $5. Pretty big and very good.
    Jesse S.

    Solid seafood at fair prices, a little cheaper than US prices. Probably the most spicy aquachiles I've had, pretty damn good. The kind of spicy that make you want to slow down but it's so good you can't... They can make it not so spicy if you ask. But the way I see it, what's the point in that. Might as well get something else off the menu. The quesadilla was pretty good too. Drinks were OK, nothing special. Good customer service.

    Amazing aguachiles!

    We finally made a trip to Tijuana after 15 years and we were not disappointed. We were walking through out Tijuana, even though people constantly talk about how dangerous it is, (BTW, not once did we feel unsafe or worried, just go) not even sure where we were to be honest, but we came across this restaurant and popped on in. I have been craving aguachiles for so long and was ready to order them, even though they're terribly spicy. Luckily, they were able to tone down the spiceness for me and I was loving them! So fresh and full of flavor! Perfect amount of spice for me, my husband got his normal and they even smelled extremely spicy! But he said they were delicious. We also ordered a pulpo enchilado quesadilla and that was so good, amazing flavors and cheesy! I missed all the food in TJ! Good customer service, very helpful and friendly!

    Nice place to grab lunch! Fast we walked in just two of us and got a table right away but don't…read moreexpect that if it's more I think we got lucky. Either way looked fast paced got people in n out so shouldn't be a wait. A bit loud inside with TVs and music playing. The food was pretty good I liked the cooked camarones they had the best and the mescal drink. The churros were nice nothing to crazy on flavor but presentation wise if fun and attention seeking so plus plus if you usually order fajitas and like the eyes on you. The jicama taco is pretty interesting fresh and taste great not a usual thing but good. Our server Gerardo Rodriguez was awesome the whole time he made sure we have everything we need and still check on us the entire visit

Todo iba bien hasta que le llevaron una rebanada de pastel y le cantaron las mañanitas, le cantaron la clásica mordida y mi hijo no quería, pues le atascaron el pastel en la cara y el betún y gran parte del pastel se le metió en la nariz, mi hijo estaba muy enojado y la verdad es que se sintió como una humillación, uno sabrá lo que hace en su casa, pero en un lugar público y gente que no te conoce esto es de muy mal gusto y hasta humillante. Pero eso si, el mesero exigiendo la propina, hablé con el gerente y me dijo que tratan de evitar eso, pero la verdad yo no vi que trataran de evitarlo, al contrario, está de sobra decir que no regresaremos.

    This place named itself "sushi bar," but it also says it's an authentic Mexican seafood restaurant?…read moreThat feels like an identity crisis lol. I was given chips, salsa, and an appetizer soup thing in a cup. The chips were fine. I thought the soup was alright. I didn't like the salsa as I found it too watery and lacking in flavor, more like a hot sauce than a salsa. I ordered two hand rolls, a spicy tuna roll and a salmon skin roll. I thought they were good. I found the salmon skin too crispy and deep fried for my preference, but it was still good. Finally, I realized that not only do I never eat authentic Mexican seafood, I'm not even sure what that entails. So I dug through the menu and saw something called "Don Tono," described as stuffed with seafood, but without much other explanation. I asked the waitress what this Don Tono is exactly, and to my surprise, she wasn't sure either. So, of course I had to order it. It was a big thing of aluminum foil with goodies inside, kinda like a seafood bake. It was good, although I found the flavor to be a undertuned. I would've liked some Cajun seasoning. The best texture and taste was probably the fish itself as it was light and flaky without being mushy, and it absorbed the umami of some of the other seafood. I thought the shrimp and shellfish were just okay, and maybe just a tad overcooked for me. Honestly, I was also not a huge fan of the cheese here; I feel like it doesn't quite fit. I also got some rice and salad with it, which were both fine.

    I got a couple rolls to go as well as some edamame. All serviceable, nothing remarkable but an…read moreinexpensive option for some decent sushi! Fun decor in this place! When I came in to pick up my food there was no one at the host stand and it seems like there was one waiter running the whole show during busy lunch time. Little teeny tiny parking lot but it's right across from the shopping centre parking so not a big deal.
