Food was ok but WAY overpriced. 70 bucks for 6 tacos and 2 margaritas. Don't be lured in. The food wasn't anything to write home about.

This place charges more for a margarita than I pay in Scottsdale, Arizona. The server reassured us at least they were strong, which they weren't. Here is what you really need to know: No toilet paper roll holder in the women's bathroom, no running water at the sink in the women's bathroom, no soap, no paper towels or toilet paper. In the men's room you'll find no stall doors, and it did have running water at the sink, where you'll find a staff member washing his shit-stained drawers. After seeing that we were just praying to god we didn't get sick. And we did not eat here thank goodness. read more

Fui a almorzar y la cubierta de la mesa tenía el menú con los precios, un molcajetero de azada estaba a 240 pesos y la cerveza a 80 pesos, lo cual se me hizo razonable pero, al terminar de comer el mesero me informó que los precios reales los tenían el forma electrónica. el molcajete costaba 1200 pesos, 5 veces más de lo publicado en la mesa !!!!, e la cerveza a 100 pesos adicional de cobrar más del 20% de impuestos, lo cual es ilegal !!!. El restaurante tiene pintura descarapelada en techo y paredes , una condición que pone en riesgo la salud read more

All about the bait and switch. Best tacos in town! WRONG! Best prices in town! HAHAHA, nope. Best margaritas in town! Did they even put tequila in mine? Be prepared to be charged 20% extra for a reason they won't tell you. I was able to use a credit card, thankfully since I didnt have enough cash for 2 orders of tacos, 2 things of chips, a margarita, 2 beers and 2 sodas. But they tack on 10% for credit cards. And don't even think about not tipping. On top of that, our waiter was across the street running their game for 25 mins and forgot to put in our order for tacos. He finally came back and I had to ask for them. Came about 10 mins later. Someone said the place across the street was better, wish I saw that review first. But the food right off the boat smelled way better than any place in the tourist trap. Wish we had stayed there. read more

Food tasted ok...but overcharged us...said menu has old prices...charged my neice $15 for a snall margarita... According to the menu given to us the price should have been $36.... but our bill came to $49... we were charged 14% tax...our nice 13% ...never again...find a local or go to the tents by the cruise ship. We ate there before...not ripped off. $3.50 for a street taco..way too much. We are from SD... so we have eaten many places... Rosarito had great taco shops $1.40...and filled... Stay away from here....wish we would have checked the reviews prior... read more

Place is a rip off. They have prices printed on tables but say those were the prices under last ownership. In reality they double prices when cruise ships come in. Also, they don't tell you that they don't accept credit cards until it's time to pay. They charged me $100 for 4 tacos, a margarita and two shots of tequila. AVOID AT ALL COSTS! read more

Horrible experience; please avoid this place. We ordered three tacos priced at $6 each, as indicated on the menu, along with an order of guacamole. However, our final bill ended up being $78. The service was slow, and the presence of constant beggars ruined the atmosphere. complete SCAM and they charge extra for paying in cash when the card machine was not working read more

If I could give negative stars I would. This is just like everyone's says is a scam. They have guys on the street roping you in and give crappy service once your in and then the bills comes and its way more then you ever expected. Tacos of course only comes in packs of 3 BTW so that's part of there scam. We had 6 tacos 2 enchiladas and 2 sodas and it came out at 82 bucks. More then double what I would have paid in any state for. And then the guy actually asked for a tip when we really got no service at all. Be careful of these types of places when going in to the downtown area of Ensenada. read more

There is nothing positive I can say about dining here. We stopped in for a margarita and "free". guacamole. The menu is plastered on the table, prices visible. Three original margaritas on the rocks, one strawberry blended which did not have more than a splash of tequila- to which I was told that blending dilutes the taste...hmmm not anywhere else I've had one??? Also, two beers and a tiny bowl of chips, $156 USD...When I asked about the cost, we were told the $8 margarita price on the table did not apply to the ones we ordered? Ok. Very disappointed. Oh... and $10 pesos to use the toilet. And keep in mind, if you dine outside you will be solicited to the entire time and constantly interrupted while in the midst of conversation. No gracias. :( read more

Beware!!! Worst restaurant I've been to. Food was awful, place was dirty and they overcharged us. Do not go here.

Wanted drinks while we waited for our family member to get a tattoo. Made the mistake of sitting down at this restaurant while walking around. Saw the price of the margaritas on the wood table that we were drinking at for $8 each for four of us. We thought the tab would be $32 plus tax but they ended up charging us $20 each for the four margaritas that weren't that good. On top of that there was a guy playing the guitar and we avoided looking at him because we were tired of giving money out to everyone who came up to our table. He insisted on playing music and flat out asked my brother for a tip, who felt bad and gave him a couple of bucks. We asked if we could use Apple Pay and of course there is a fee and the bill ended up being about $120.00! I told our waiter that I would be doing a yelp review on how shady they are at that restaurant and will warn everyone not to even look in their direction when they go to Ensenada. Highway Robbery! Run away as fast as you can. read more

SCAM--DO NOT EAT HERE. We had 3 chicken tacos, 1 shrimp cocktail and 2 margaritas (awful). The bill was $97. My husband said there was no way in h*ll he would pay that. We argued with the waiter because the prices on the table were a lot cheaper. They use a bait and switch tactic with a "phone menu" read more

DO NOT GO HERE! Absolute scam. They add on a variety of fees at the end that ends up over doubling your bill. Plus people are pestering you the entire time trying to sell you more stuff. read more

This is definitely a scam they do change the prices once you get the bill, I have never would pay$ 100 for a molcajete not even in the USA , we order 2 and 3 meals for the kids , one margarita and 5 beers and paid almost $500 US dollars...RIDICULOUS! EXPENSIVE! read more

I took my first bite of the Asada tacos and almost puked. Spit it back on my plate. I have never tasted something so bad in my life. UPDATE when we paid they overcharged me $160 US for my meal and told me we would have to wait for 20 minutes while they went to the bank to get a refund. I immediately frauded my card. I would avoid this place like the plague. read more

Zero stars! This place almost ruined our whole day in Ensenada. We sat down for a quick bite to eat. 4 people ordered tacos (which were basic rolled tortillas with carne asada), one ordered a bowl of sizzling chicken (seemed like a fajita soup), and two quesadillas. We also ordered three orders of guacamole/chips and two margaritas. Our bill was $385!!!! They charged a $65 service charge and apparently they only give 16 pesos to each 1 USD. The food was NOT good, it was so basic and bland. Guac was super chunky like a half assed attempt at making it, tacos were tasteless, and the hamburger we ordered that we sent back (and they took off the bill) was not even real meat. It was a veggie burger or some imitation meat. The whole experience was awful. We could not even eat in peace. Vendors constantly were in your face trying to sell you something. We will never go back! And they only accepted cash. We were fuming! I am still fuming that our bill was $385 for 7 people to eat! Tacos didn't even have rice or beans! They were a la carte! read more

WATCH OUT!! THIS PLACE OVERCHARGE. There are other restaurants that you can eat the same food for less than half the price, unless you like to waste your money eating here. Food is just average, service is ok. Also they will purposely decline credit cards so you'll end up paying cash. They manipulate the receipt and all you get is a written one. I DONT RECOMMEND THIS PLACE. read more

This restaurant is such a rip off. We went here to have a few tacos and a few beers. They way overcharged and magically the card reader was not working. I dont recommend this place at all. read more

Such a rip off for 9 of us and we only had 1 drink each and we got 2 taco plates to share it was over 300 US dollars. They get you by standing on the streets saying they are offering a good deal! They gave us free chips and guac which was mid at best. read more

I should've listened to the yelpers, $46 for (6) tacos and (2) cokes. I hope this place gets struck by lightning!!!

We had 3 carne asada tacos which were $9 and a beer and a margarita. It was $50 US dollars. . Do NOT eat here. Tourist trap. There was no toilet seats or toilet paper. So we had to wait to go somewhere else. We wouldn't even give them a 1 but there was nothing lower. read more

Absolute scam. Charged us $60 USD for 6 chicken (?) tacos- they were noted as $10 for 3 on the menu. Not worth the argument. So unfortunate for an otherwise lovely experience in Ensenada. read more

I would not recommend this place, even if I was starving, the food was absolutely flavorless and expensive for absolutely no reason no reason. And the bill was over 100. For this trash not worth it. Keep exploring and find better deals with other locals. The places seemed like they used be a mechanic shop or something. read more

Its a scam and the food isn't that good. A family of 3 was charged $129 for tacos. Don't give them your business.

They do not take card and don't tell you until it's too late. They completely screwed us over and it's outrageously priced. Do not go here.

Day off Carnival cruise ship Radiance August 31st 2025, for sons birthday. 9 of us found ourselves at Garabaldi Restaurant in Ensenada. What would have cost us around 200-240 dollars in the states cost us 440 dollars here no Itemized receipt wanted only cash! Couple at the table next to us had no cash, so he had to find an atm outside all the while his girlfriend sat the table and wasn't allowed to leave. YIkes! stay far, far away from this establishment! read more

Absolute Scam! Like other users stated, we got lured from the street to be given a digital menus that didn't include breakfast which is what we wanted. They assured us we could order breakfast. After six of us ordered food and drinks they tried to slap us with a bill that was hundreds more than our friends eating at the same establishment. Again like others had stated we payed what we thought was more than a fair price and the staff threatened us with calling the police. Steer clear of this place! Head south on the same street and find a quaint quiet area that made me feel like we were in Italy! *******STAY AWAY******* read more

We just went there on Monday. I had chilaquiles, and a lemonade, hubby had a shrimp cocktail and 2 beers. Their credit card machine was "not working". Our bill with "taxes" came out to $92 US!. I kept telling my husband that the bill was not making sense, but he paid it anyways. Avoid this place if you can, total rip off with mediocre food. read more

We were in Ensenada on January 5, 2025. While walking around, we met Peter from the restaurant Giribaldi and decided to return later. The food was very sub-subpar (food quality, flavor & cleanlyness), old and filthy restrooms and every few minutes, someone came in interrupting our meal by trying to sell us some crap, the worst part was the "Surprise Bill". The bill for three fish tacos, three beef tacos, and a plate of nachos was $38.11 U.S. We asked Peter why it was so high and he said it was because of the 50% tax. DON'T GO THERE!!!!

What a colorful place... what a great margarita... Then i saw the bill.... $108... hmm lets see... 4 margaritas delicious.. $14 a piece..hmm... a full one spilled as the wind blew the tablecloth up, quick to clean it up, quick to bring a replacement... another $14. Waiter asked for a beer. I bought him one.. bill came, he billed me $6 for each... wait each? Then came the special needs boy... my girl works for a special needs school shes a sucker... he asked can you buy me two tacos. I said no she said yes.. His food comes out, a burger in fries whatever.. then i saw the bill. Burger $12 - fries $12 ...lol I asked politely to see the menu, "we dont have one..." This isnt my first time in mexico. Ive been coming here all my life. To this town all my life, but it was my wifes first time. She was pissed. Upon me explainng to them that i know the hustle, im aware of whats going on, the bill came back $83. Still a joke. To be honest i know i could have flaged down the police and it woulda been handled quick... but you just let them make decisions for the business owner whos currently out of town. Decisions way above their pay grade, decisions to trade a lifelong repeat customer, who will participate in your social media, return again and again, for life, post yelps, and such, for instant gratification. Basically everything here is $12-$14, 2 bucks worth of fries is $12. Margaritas $14.. 2 beers $12.. Its laughable. The owner owns most of the block.. so honestly its probably the norm.. i hope not... I promise ill walk by this corner every time im in ensenada for the rest of my life, and let you ask, then just laugh as i walk away. Maybe you won the first round, but ill ensure the fight never gets a second.. cheers and well done lads! You got me! read more

Charged $72 for beef fajitas and a cocktail and the beef was tuff. I.would not recommend this place.

Avoid at all costs, complete scam. Every review about being astronomically overcharged for less than mediocre food is correct.

Bad conversion rate 16-1 pesos to USD, paper stuck to the tacos, random 20% "VIT" for no reason. Really expensive, just go to a taco stand read more
