    Honestly, I have been wanting to come here for a few years! Was it worth the wait - yes! The restaurant was clean with a classic Italian restaurant look. First up on the menu is the table side prepared Caesar salad. We opted for the "large" portion with shrimp. The dressing phenomenal & shrimp prepared perfectly. Our only wish was they had @ least 3 more pieces of romaine lettuce. The served bread with a fresh ground olive spread. Spread tasted good but the bread gave store bought vibes. For our main entrees we ordered: BEEF WELLINGTON - was prepared well. Meat tender encased in puff pastry. LAMB CHOPS juicy & tender! Peppery brown gravy & mint chimichurri jelly on the side. Both came with sides of blanched veggies & crispy baby potatoes. For dessert we got flan. The flan was a great ending. It was creamy & smooth almost like a cross between flan & crème brûlée. We were so happy to have had the opportunity to dine @ such a historical location!

    They let me mix the Caesar salad. Lol

    What a treat. Long time friends brought me here. The home of the Caesar salad. It was great! Also ordered the bone marrow and the tuna tar tar. And of course margaritas! They make the salad at your table. They got our drink order a little wrong but corrected it. My friend didn't love the tuna. It was a bit on the sweet side. Probably just used to the US version. Beautiful presentation. Very professional staff. Beautiful traditional restaurant.

    I just came here with my family tonight and I am impressed. I ordered the "Hamburguesa Retro" and i would rate this a 7/10-8/10. The burger was good but the meat tasted a little bit funky. The fries alongside the burger were good. The place looked really nice, and there was a bunch of paintings and decorations to really give the restaurant a good feel. The servers were nice too. My only problem is how long I had to wait for my food. I had to wait about 20 minutes, but other than that, I really enjoyed the place and I would definitely come here again, but I'd probably order something different next time around.

    The food is Awsome and price was great, but my waiter sucks! Short and of bald head short Waiter. I always have to ask for water refilled. The Resturant wasn't even busy at all around 4pm. The staffs was all talking stories amongst themselves! They just walk by my table and see the empty glass and don't even filled it until I asked. When I got the bills, the waiter told me we charge a 25% service charge here. I'm thinking, " What service??!‍" I didn't say anything and just pay the 25% service charged. Once again, the food was amazing, but their waiter is too arrogant!

    FUN FACT: Caesar salad was invented here in TJ! I was shook when I learned that -- and also very excited because Caesar's Restaurant is just a short drive across the border. The restaurant is located on Revolución, so there's plenty to walk around and explore, plus lots of paid, secured parking nearby. We went during lunch for drinks and, of course, a Caesar salad. I love the whole idea of a tableside Caesar -- food and a show, honestly. The staff was friendly, and we ordered a mojito and a mezcal cocktail, both excellent. We got the large tableside Caesar, which is perfect for two people. The host came over, explained all the ingredients, mixed everything right in front of us, and served it up. It was great. I prefer a creamier Caesar where the anchovies are mixed in rather than left whole -- and that's exactly the style they make here. Definitely stop by, and I'd love to come back for a full meal next time we're in Tijuana.

    This place was on my bucket list for quite some time and I finally had a chance to go. I ordered a mojito and it was just perfect. As for the famous Caesar salad, it was good but to be honest the one I had in Puerto Penasco, Mexico taste it better in my opinion. But still this place is an icon and it was a good experience. For an appetizer we ordered, beef carpaccio and it was pretty good. I also ordered carbonara but it was nothing like the carbonara that I know. It was more like alfredo and I was disappointed.

    El mejor lugar de Tijuana!!! Me encanta venir por mi ensalada y mis tuétanos. Las pastas están muy deliciosas, y el tartare me encanta. Service is always lovely and fast, with everything perfect. It's a very quiet restaurant but it's beautiful with a lot to see. Make sure you try this place out! It's a must!!

    This place is an institution, a must if you are in the area. The place is known for their classic Caesar salad which was inspired here, by a guy named Caesar, during the heyday of America's prohibition. This original version is fantastic, very tasty. It's made table side so it's fresh. The rest of the items we tried were very good but the star of the show is that salad. Go for the experience, the history and the great food.

    The best Caesar Salad you will ever have is here. They invented it. They serve it table side with the freshest ingredients. If you like a great salad, this is a must for you. The place itself is super pretty and very clean and comfortable. It is not cheap, but it is fairly priced. I put this in the fine dinning category. The service is perfect. Everyone is so very nice. You will be happy here. They have some of the best Italian pastas I have ever had. We love their PENNE A LA ARRABIATA and their FETUCCINNI CARBONARA. You might think you are in Italy. It is just so good. Their fish dishes are also great. We love the RISOTTO DE MARISCOS and their SALMÓN WELLINGTON. You just can't go wrong with anything you order. Their desserts are the bomb. They have a great corn cake and a wonderful chocolate mousse. At least one is a must. Have the best time.

    After my friends finished their dental appointment and haircuts, we were ready to fill up our bellies with great food. Before I learned about its history, I grew up thinking the Caesar salad originated in Rome, Italy and named after Julius Caesar but the only thing Italian about it is the birthplace of its creator Cesare Cardini. And since reading about this fact, it became a bucket list item to eat the original Caesar's salad in the restaurant that first made it back in 1924. Today, we get to indulge in the experience of its table side preparation - a small production to behold with the 'salad maestro' placing each ingredient into the massive wooden bowl one by one, mixed fully and incorporating it onto the crunchy fresh Romaine lettuce then topped with generous grated Parmigiano Reggiano and toasted slices of bread. It's simple enough that anyone can do this at home and ask the question "why would you even choose store-bought dressing loaded with gums, corn syrup and chemicals. The first bite of the salad was worth the drive to San Ysidro, parking near the border, crossing over and taking an Uber to this well-known restaurant. Because my two friends just had some dental work done, they each ordered soup. One Classic French Onion soup and Tortilla soup. We shared an order of Gambas al Ajillo and I opted for the Spaghetti Al Pesto. I got to taste their soups as well and I shared half my pasta with them. Our waiters all spoke English and readily topped our glasses of water and accommodated our small requests like soda, olive oil and extra slices of bread. Only praises for the service! They were fully staffed! Compared to other guests during this lunch hour, we were underdressed in what is considerered the classiest restaurant in Tijuana according to San Diego Reader (2017) and we are not even in rugged clothing. I would definitely return here and bring my special date for a romantic evening of culinary delights and drinks.

    Salad yaaaa!!!

    I used to love coming to Caesar this time it was very disappointing. My sister salad is always very good, but I got the duck La'orange which is my favorite staple but unfortunately, it came out dry and overcut had to send it back and then by the time I seen the bag of room we ordered anything because we were already eating the pasta which was a very good . Experienced their iconic service was OK and ambience is always fun. Not sure if I'll go back anytime soon but definitely go for the Caesar salad.

    Medium rare "Ribeye"
    Heather J.

    May I make a suggestion? Do NOT order a steak. Caesar's is NOT the place for steak. Case in point, I ordered a rib eye, one of their most expensive cuts of red meat. Ribeye is a cut of steak known to be 1-1.5 inches thick. So when I saw my plate I wasn't sure whether to laugh or cry. The "steak" wasn't even a 1/2 inch thick. Normally, I would send a plate like this back, but I honestly did not think it would get any better. They did however nail my medium rare request Yes, their Caesar's salad is one of the best I have ever had. Yes, they mix nice at the table side with raw egg yolk, anchovy and fresh black pepper. Yes the food server was excellent. Yes the establishment has ambience. In fact, Caesar's has one of the best decors in Tijuana. Even the ladies room was one of the neatest/cleanest I've seen in the city. Now, if we could only fix the steak I might come back.

    My family. Finally got together to have the famous Cesars Salad .
    Mrs. D.

    Cesars Salad show, I love it, makes me feel fancy and Thank You Staff for that special touch to our table. Ordered, beef fillet adobada style with a tiny mound of pineapple salsa taco ,honestly, street venders have better tacos and salsa . The seafood risotto with 2 clams 1 shrimp was a little too fishy and dry,not creamy enough for me. Fettuccine was OK. cauliflower tacos couldn't tell you how they tasted, as I was given someone's dry carnita or duck taco order. Drinks were strong,tacos are better outside. However , I do reccomend you come have the salad . 3ribs is considered a small, a 5rib is considered a large.
