We were on our way to visit some of the local wineries when we decided to stop and get something to…read moreeat. We've been to this area several times and usually just randomly pick somewhere to eat. It was early in the day and this restaurant seemed to be one of the few places open so we went in to give them a try. There is parking right out front but it was the middle of January so it might be harder to find parking during warmer times of the year, but even still, there is plenty of street parking. The inside is small and quaint with comfortable seating. We were the only ones in the restaurant and they sat us right away and brought us drinks along with chips and salsa. The chips were amazing, but I was expecting them to be this far down across the border. The menu has quite a few options but I chose the Chile Relleno and my friend had the Chicken Enchiladas. Again, the restaurant was basically empty so it was nice and quiet but I get the impression it's never too busy to be very noisy. It was nice and comfortable. Initially I just thought it would be like restaurant back in the states; place your order and within minutes someone would bring it out. But we actually waited a considerable amount of time before our meals were brought out. Not too long, but again, just longer than I would have expected. The kitchen is open to the whole restaurant so you can see them cooking and after awhile, it was clear why the food was taking longer than you might expect. Unlike restaurants back in the states where most of this food is pre-prepared and just sitting in pans keeping warm, they made EVERYTHING fresh to order! Nothing was warmed up or ladled up from a pan of already made food. They made it all fresh! When the food came out, it looked like food from a magazine or menu. The type of food you only see in pictures. The food you see that usually looks so perfect but never actually get it served. Well, this food looked that perfect! It was hot and fresh and you can't go wrong with that combination. I'm a big believer in the quality of the refried beans being the standard for any Mexican restaurant. If the beans are good, generally speaking, the rest of the food is going to be good as well. These refried beans were AMAZING! Without a doubt, the next time I'm in the area, I am stopping here just to have a bowl of their refried beans with the chips! If I could sit there with the beans and chips and watch the Super Bowl, I'd be in Nirvana! My plate came with two, very large, chiles; normally I would expect only one. And the batter they were covered in was just perfect. Nice and light but with great flavor. The chiles were fresh and tasty; but I have to admit, I don't know what was in them. I'm used to the chile stuffed with cheese, but I'm not sure what was in this. It wasn't bad tasting but sure didn't seem like cheese. Regardless, I highly recommend it. My friends chicken enchiladas were amazing! So many restaurants down in Baja are fantastic but this was exceptional and I can't say enough good things about it. If you are planning a trip down to the wineries, stop here before or after your wine tasting. You won't be sorry! Great service and amazing food!

Luckily, I got there just before the rush and was seated quickly. The location has an amazing vibe, especially as it begins to fill up. The food was amazing!! The Cafe de Olla was some of the best that I have ever had. It is perfectly seasoned with cinnamon and requires no additional sugar or milk to be thoroughly enjoyed. Next comes the chips and salsa. The chips were crunchy and salted, while the salsa was actually spicy. Far too often, salsa has no spice, and this was fantastic. While we were waiting for our orders, we were offered the chance to order a taco, and I decided to try the carnitas taco. WOW. The flavor profile was insane. The carnitas were juicy, but the exterior was lightly smoked and toasty, which paired with the lime and toppings was very pleasant. My main was the Borrego Tatemado. It was phenomenal! The meat was very juicy, and the side sauce (Consomme) was some of the best I ever had. The restaurant does an amazing job of making this place feel like I am eating homemade food at a relative's.

Their hot coffee was $65 pesos and it comes with free refills. I just got the fruit platter and the bread with coffee. The fruits were fresh and they also provide honey as well to eat with the cottage cheese. They also gave us a small complimentary plate of fruits so I just had extra.

However, this weekend we tried a few new things I can highly recommend. First, the dessert crepes! We got one with cream cheese, banana, cajeta and chocolate.

We ordered chilaquiles divorciados (1/2 green, 1/2 red) and machaca seca with the eggs in the side. Our eggs were cooked perfectly to order, and the flour tortillas were perfect for making little burritos with the machaca and homemade refried beans. The salsa was the right level of spicy and flavorful, and the hashbrowns made a nice bed for my over medium eggs. While the chef Marco has always been there, the service staff is different each time, but always friendly. Please be aware that this is a family restaurant, basically in their yard. The ambiance might be a little intimidating to the inexperienced American eye, but push forward, and you won't be disappointed.
