    Reservations are required for this winery in Valle de Guadalupe but we arrived early enough in the day that they were able to seat us for a tasting although we didn't have a reservation. The staff was friendly and attentive, explaining each pour in detail, and the views were beautiful and expansive. I loved the artistic design of the place with hanging vines and large, colorful murals. What we didn't like was the wine. We tried the flight with 2 whites and one red and all were extremely bitter and acidic.

    Love the logo

    We loved the wine here the best out of 4 wineries we went to in Valle. The ambiance is very artsy/ hipster. I recommend dressing warmer in winter as the main tasting room is kind of chilly (this would be super nice in summer though!). We ended up getting two bottles - the Singular (love the logo!) and the Tinto de la Hacienda. Both were so good.

    Cool art

    I have been to this winery quite a few times, and every time it gets it is prettier or prettier. They keep improving the space and adding nice murals. It is very nice looking down onto the wine country. We're doing the old-school tasting which is five different wines.Chardonnay, clean and a hit bitter and acidy in the end. Tinto, cab, syrah, merlot blend- bold a bit too bitter also. Pagano, 100% Grenache- it is good with lingering taste of rosemary. Sacro-Cab 50% Merlot 50%- this wine is better. Lunario, Cab Franc 50% Merlot 50%. I did not buy any wine here.

    This place is beautiful! There is an awesome seating area with beautiful murals along the walls. It has a great view and a relaxing chill vibe that would be great to just sit and enjoy. They were renovating the balcony/terrace area so we did not get to sit and enjoy the space but we will definitely be back to do so. It's a perfect stop after having breakfast at La Cocina de Doña Esthela since it is right next to it. They had good wine! The staff was very knowledgeable and recommended various other wineries with similar decor and structures since we loved la Lomita's architecture and vibes so much - everything they recommended was absolutely amazing. There is a beautiful garden and restuarant area but we did not have the opportunity to eat but it would be an incredibly space to hold an event or wedding. Hacienda la Lomita is one of our favorite wineries in El Valle and we have visited about 15 of them. It is amazing and wonderful and highly recommend it!

    Our plan was to go to brunch at La Coina de Doña Esthela and then come to Lomita for our first winery (along with 200 other yelp enthusiasts) but the wait for brunch was 3 hours long so we decided to go straight to Lomita. What made this place for me was the staff, they were very friendly, welcoming, and took the time to explain their wines in detail. The view didn't hurt either, and the tasting room was a unique layout with art painted on the walls, hanging succulents, and seating. I purchased the rose to bring home with me, and would have our purchased more if my husband wasn't with me holding me back ;) Will recommend to my family and friends!

    Solid wines! The wine maker is from Napa & the structure & character of the wines show it. The Chardonnay was my favorite

    The wine maker is from Napa. The structure of the wines will taste familiar to Napa fans. The flight we had consisted of Chardonnay Rose Grenache Cab, Merlot, Syrah blend The Chardonnay was my favorite. Well balanced, light to medium body. Bright fruit & citrus in the front, slight vanilla towards the end. Long finish. Nice!

    Michilada and agua tamarind
    Mina M.

    The food and wine here are fantastic! The rose cursi is my fav. The restaurant is beautiful and prices are affordable. My only complaint is that our second dish took 45 mins to come out. Other than that this is one of my fav wineries in the valle. Try the agua tamarind at the restaurant. So good!! The green ceviche was delicious! Also tried the lamb flautas which were also great.

    While on a girls weekend in Ensenada, my friend suggested that we taste at this winery. She had been here a couple of times during her past visits. Esthetically, the winery was charming and full of artistic flair. The most important reason that I have given Hacienda la Lomita five stars is that the wine is lovely, tasty, and unique to the area. The wine labels are creatively designed reflecting the style of the vineyard. Jorge Tellaeche is the artist who is featured in their winery. He is so talented! I chose to purchase a bottle of their white Sauvignon Blanc Enspacio blanco and a bottle of red Discreto Encanto. The Espacio Blanco is like a traditional Sav Blanc in the fruity crisp flavors. Enspacio blanco is an unique bottle in that the notes are flavorful and elegant. The bottle of Discreto Encanto has a beautiful label of a woman tucked in a valley of flowers by Charles Glaubitz, an Illustrator from Tijuana. I love their mission statement that La Lomita is about "family, dreams, and noble transgressions." Cesar and Maria were a great addition to our wine tasting experience. They were very helpful and informative. I can't wait to return next year.

The charcuterie board stood out with its excellent variety of artisanal cheeses and meats, all beautifully presented. Some of the cheeses were from the goats on the property, pretty cool--and other fresh ingredients came from the region. The "Torre de Uchepo" (Uchepo Tower) was the best. Uchepo is a soft tamale made from white corn, traditional to Michoacán, and here it is taken to another level. It's served with pork rib and a green tomato and puya pepper sauce, topped with fresh farm cream and Cotija cheese. An absolute must! The wines, all produced from the on-site winery, paired perfectly with both the charcuterie board and the tamale dish. The peaceful views of ducks in a small pond and a nearby pasture with sheep and horses. They have dogs too, which are all so friendly and, in my opinion, added to the experience as a dog lover. It's a serene experience that perfectly complements the quality of the food and wine. And the service, the service is like no other. Highly recommended for anyone looking to enjoy the best of Valle de Guadalupe's culinary and wine scene. I look forward to returning for an actual meal, we had dinner reservations, but wanted to stop by. The restaurant is off the beaten path. At the gate, you'll enter and continue driving around the property to the top, where the restaurant sits with gorgeous views. You'll see a small pond and a set of stairs--follow them up to the top. The restaurant offers both indoor and outdoor seating.

You have to drive at least 5 miles just to find other restaurants or attractions, and it's about 14 miles to Ensenada if you want more options. The hotel only has one restaurant currently open, and while it was convenient, the food was overpriced for what it offered. The staff was friendly, welcoming, and helpful throughout our stay, which we appreciated. Unfortunately, the property itself felt a bit neglected. There were several maintenance issues, including a broken toilet paper holder and a broken shampoo/conditioner dispenser that wasn't replaced until the following day. The paint in the room didn't match in several areas, and overall it could use some upkeep. The pillows were very uncomfortable, and the property was extremely dusty, making it difficult to enjoy being outside, so we ended up staying indoors most of the time. We also booked a room advertised with a "valley view," but our view was mostly trees and a ditch, which was disappointing and not what we expected. On the positive side, the room itself was modern, clean, and nicely designed inside. With a few minor repairs and better maintenance, it could be an excellent place to stay. The hotel was also very quiet, which made for a peaceful atmosphere, although the room had great AC. Overall, I would rate Casa Frida 3 out of 5 stars. It has potential thanks to its friendly staff

The roof is literally made of old fishing boats flipped upside down over the cellar. The owner is a retired ship captain, so once you walk inside it all clicks. It's funky and a little weird, and I loved it. Our host was a gem. Knowledgeable, attentive, generous, and so into what he was pouring that he kept slipping us extras to try beyond our tasting. We tried some of their natural wines, and I LOVED them. The orange wine, especially. They reminded me of a good sour beer, kind of funky and tart, and I was very into it. Heads up, though: the rest of my group of four hated them. Natural wines are a love them or leave them situation. After our tasting, we hung out on the grounds and grabbed food from the Troika food truck out front, and honestly, we could have stayed all afternoon. The whole place is so unhurried, and after two more buttoned-up tastings, it was exactly what I needed. Different from the others, not better or worse. I really enjoyed the wine and the whole hangout, and I'll absolutely be back on our next trip.

The wines were fantastic, but what really made the experience stand out was the service. Everyone we interacted with was warm, welcoming, and genuinely excited to share their wines and story with us.

One of our favorite parts of the visit was the chocolate and wine pairing that my husband and I did together. Every pairing was thoughtfully put together, and it was so much fun discovering how the flavors changed and complemented each other with every sip and bite. The best surprise of the day? Finding out our sommelier was from the 805! As fellow Central Coast locals, it made the experience feel even more special and gave us an instant connection that we definitely weren't expecting to find in the middle of wine country in Baja.

We enjoyed the restaurant and the wine-tasting tour, and I always thought about coming back. Last weekend, I was passing through the area. The wine tours were already closed, but the restaurant was still open, so my brother and I decided to grab a quick dinner before heading to the border, wrapping up an amazing week in Rosarito. Unfortunately, the experience was very different this time around. Our waiter seemed more focused on getting us to order pricier items than on providing good service, and both the food and drinks took a long time to come out. The restaurant was not busy at the time, so I'm not sure why everything took so long. We were only a party of two, and our order was pretty basic: two cocktails, an appetizer, and two main courses. When it was time to pay, the bill came with a 20% tip already included. Nowhere did it say beforehand that gratuity would automatically be added. Considering the slow service, 20% seemed excessive. Even 15% would have been a lot for the level of service we received, but it would have felt more reasonable. I was thrown off by the experience but decided not to make a big deal about it at the time. Unfortunately, after having such a positive impression of El Cielo from my first visit, this experience left me disappointed, and it will probably be the last time I eat at the El Cielo restaurant.
