I decided to take the drive out there, after arriving too early on one attempt I came back to try again and they were open! I met Nate, tending the bar. Nate was awesome. We had a great conversation about all kinds of stuff like Michigan. I had to have him bake me one of their Red Baron pizzas. The place is decorated with all kinds of random quirky stuff, totally my kinda vibe. The pizza was good the beer better and the company the best! Definitely a spot worth making the trek out for!

This place is 'Da Bomb" !…read more Kinda disappointed to see this on Yelp, cuz it has long been a local's secret...but hey, its a great experience... Pros: the creator is known out here as "Radio Mike" cuz he is the Mix Master! He finds the most unusual and rocking music... and plays it using only Solar power charged batteries! Yes, Really! This is an Off the Grid Fri night Party happening! Local Musicians show up and take turns playing their music around a campfire...peeps hang out by the Tiki Bar with their own booze that they bring and share with friends...(BYOB) Head Hunter's Lounge is Friendly, Lively and Really Hip! Cons: If you set up camp right next to him and want peace and quiet on Fri nights to watch your satellite TV, it will be a little noisy...so plan on camping somewhere else if that is your thing...or plan on joining the party every Fri night! Here is a short article that tells you more about this cool cat: http://www.slab-city.com/slab_city_artist_mike/ PS...This happens from about end of Oct or early Nov to April/May depending on when he comes out here to set up camp.

It is a WWIi theme bar/grill. Indoor and outdoor seating, a fire pit for the winters, and arcade games and an electronic juke box. AC & Heat. Frank & Debbie are the owners and a good to talk to. Both locals and visitors stop here to eat & drink. They open around noon and close when the last patron leaves, which is usually 8-9 pm. They have two relief bartenders too when out of town. Open Tue-Sun and holidays. They put on a free Thanksgiving and Christmas dinner for the public as well. And usually have a band out back for New Years. I bring our guests here for dinner when they stay the night.

As it is conveniently located in the Miguel Hidalgo park square. It is one on the first resturants that you can visit on the beginning of the Ruta Del Vino. This slower paced town has many hidden gems and this is definitely one of them. Hector is passionate about his hometown and in his resturant showcases many regionally sourced offerings. The wine was all from the Gaudalupe Valley and many of their beer were from Ensenada's Transpenninsular Brewery. The calamari was delicious and the staff was very gracious and accommodating. Its was one of the highlights of my weekend getaway. I loved that I could ask many questions about the area and the owner shared some pearls of wisdom of other places to go and visit while in Tecate.

Went when a live band was playing, off the cuff, and loved them! Super entertaining. Noticed you could order food in the upper lounge seating area, I think that's pretty neat. We had really great service from an older woman though, I forget her name but she was very easy to talk to, was very helpful and as a group we felt she went above and beyond just being a great server.
