    Chilaquiles breakfast plate
    Garrin S.

    This restaurant is busy! Be prepared for a long wait to be seated, a long wait for your food, and a long wait for your check. Other than that, the food was good and the service was great. The place was noisy because it was packed with large parties. It won't be my first choice for breakfast in the future.

    Big Slam breakfast

    The food was awesome. Wife got the chilaquiles with steak. My son ordered the Big Slam breakfast and I got the stuffed French Toast. Everything was so delicious. My son ordered an orange juice with his breakfast.

    The food was great, customer service was amazing! Definitely coming back.

    Food was very delicious I got the chilaquiles de mole and pancakes l. Service was great very friendly and attentive. Definitely coming back.

    The chicken broth vegetable soup is excellent

    Like most Mexican restaurants, the service is excellent. You are welcomed with smile and you are very well taken care of. This place is very busy which is a good indication and they are known for their pancakes but I am going to have a vegetable soup which is a chicken broth base. I am also enjoying a ribeye steak. The steak was cooked perfectly, and it came with rice beans and avocado. I'm very happy.

    Probably not the best pancakes I have had. I guess I expected more. The service was great. Friendly and helpful. I had the steak and eggs as well. The steak was good. The chilaquiles were delicious. Coffee and shake were tasty. I would go back and try something different.

    Hands down my favorite place to go to wen I go to Tijuana every-time I go I have to stop here and eat every morning. I have been here so many times and the food is always great always always and delicious and fresh.

    Had my hopes up but unfortunately I was let down. Received my food and it was cold & the quality of waffles was bad. I asked for eggs and a side of bacon but was cooked all together. Service was great can't complain about that.

    Good food, and service. The place and food is exactly as the photos in the menu. (Just my plate was chipped)

    Amazing place for breakfast! A must go to when in TJ. Very close by to alot of places and you cant go wrong. Our server Luis was amazing! Greeting us with a smile and got us seated very quickly! We did not know Spanish but he was very accommodating to let us know what was on the menu! Probably best customer service we have received since we have got here. He does a phenomenal job and brought out our food exactly in 10 minutes as he mentioned!

    Mora pancakes and eggs Benedict
    Adriana R.

    No wait time, everything was very clean, they have valet parking at no charge. The service was amazing! We had different servers heckling in us and offering coffee constantly. But what took the cake was the prices, we spend $40 for 5 people and the quality of food was amazing! I will no longer go to IHOP as I found my new breakfast spot! Highly recommended.

    Chilaquiles, sincronizadas, and crepes.

    Everytime we are in town it's a must that we have breakfast here at least once. The food is always served promptly and is delicious. The customer service is up to par. Remember that the whole world is short staffed at the moment so please be kind to those who decided to show up. We can't wait for our next trip to come back.

    If you are looking for a different type of place for breakfast in Tijuana, you will discover the…read morename, Marenca. 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.

I really hope that they bring back their full menu. Service is always amazing shadow to all the amazing employees. You guys truly make the experience of going to this restaurant, what it is. Ambience is what you can imagine. Very calm and great place to have lunch or dinner or even breakfast.

    I was extremely disappointed with my visit to Sabor a Mí Restaurante in Tijuana. Despite the strong…read morerecommendation I received, this is simply not the place you want to choose for food.The only bright spot of the entire experience was the parking attendant, who was great and friendly upon arrival. Unfortunately, that positive impression vanished the minute we walked through the door. The host was rude and completely lacked control over the traffic walking in and out.Things only went downhill from there. Our waitress, Alaine, provided the worst service imaginable. Not once did she come over to offer refills or check in to see if we were okay. On top of that inattentive service, she managed to get our order completely wrong, forcing us to wait even longer. This was baffling, given that the restaurant was not even at capacity.When my breakfast combination rib eye finally arrived, the meat was entirely fat and clearly a poor cut. To make matters worse, my piña colada was served hot. Even after letting the staff know and asking if we could get some ice to chill it down, it still tasted awful and unappealing.It quickly became obvious that the staff was more interested in getting a slice of cake from another family hosting a party than actually doing their jobs or attending to customers. Save yourself the frustration and the bad experience, and definitely go elsewhere for your food.
