Your underground
Joe V.

Nice place, take toll roads. Roads are sketch after rain. Did a small river cross. Does not reflect restaurant. Did tours. Both we're good. The tractor was a little short... but overall good. Great tacos! And pizza is good.

Aguachiles

This is my 4th time in this place, I could tell you that every plate I tried has been a great experience. Aguachiles, presentation and flavor probably my best ever. The house salad is amazing. The Chamorro, the ribeye tacos, the corn pie..wow. Inside Baron Balche (one of the best wines also in the area) and price feels cheap for the quality of food!

NY strip steak

Found reviews for Tahal on other website while researching Valle de Guadalupe. The Husband and I were visiting the area in June to celebrate our anniversary. Tahal is located on the grounds of the Barón Balché winery. If you go in for a wine tasting you'll walk by the patio of the restaurant. The Husband and went in for a tasting and hoped that we would be able to get a table after. The restaurant was pretty busy. Given that we had just done a tour and purchased wine, I think they were able to find us a table for two. It's probably best if you make reservations. The Husband ordered the catch of the day with veggies, and I got the NY strip steak with mashed potatoes and veggies. When my dinner arrived the skilled was still sizzling. I'm not a big fan of smoked meats but the food was delicious. We both really enjoyed the atmosphere and I could imagine spending the rest of the evening here just enjoying some wine. There were table upon table of people who were there when we arrived for the tasting and were still there when we left. The one thing I really disliked was that because the restaurants is outdoors people are able to smoke. There one one table close to us were a lady probably smoked through half her pack during our meal. The smell of her cigarettes made my meal less enjoyable. Overall, it's a very relaxing place and I look forward to another visit to Tahal.

Ambiance is superb, and peaceful. Very large patio with scenic wine country. We wanted to eat Mexican near us, and followed Yelp. We are happy to find a very nice restaurant.

Found this place on Instagram decided to check it out. The drive in is super confusing make sure you type in Baron Balche on GPS rather than the restaurant name. We had made reservations for 6:30pm but we got there and the place was empty besides another table. It seemed like the waitress was new and didn't really know much, she also had difficult opening the bottle of wine despite working at a winery. We ordered the Tahal pizza, this Mushroom with steak, and the rib eye tartar. Out of of all of the options the mushroom with steak was the best !! The pizza was okay nothing to great. The wine was good and only 250 pesos the bottle !!!

Roasted Cesar salad. You can taste the grill on the lettuce. Very very good!

Quickly yelped a place to eat that was nearby and Chamuyo popped up. My husband and I stopped in,…read morewe did not need a reservation - this was a Saturday evening over Memorial Day weekend. We were greeted immediately and offered indoor or outdoor seating. We opted to eat outdoors. A tiny regret as smoking is allowed and people were smoking. But they soon left so not too much of a bother. We started by ordering drinks - they have a full bar. My husband ordered a double tequila & I ordered a Paloma. Not too strong or too weak, just perfectly prepared. My husband ordered the Chamuyo Shrimp U10, and I ordered the Rib Eye Center Cut Steak- medium well. Both came with a side of the criolla salad. The food, ambiance, and service was great. There was also about 30 minutes of live music by a duo performing son jarocho. Not sure if that's the proper phrasing but it was a nice treat. I'm not sure if they are regular performers or they just happened to be there that day. Overall a great dining experience to celebrate our 10 year anniversary.

This place is located in the Valle de Guadalupe, Baja Mexico. I wasn't always a fan of the wine…read morefrom this area. But over the last two decades they have made large strides in quality with new modernization techniques. Besides all of the wine makers that have been here for generations, others (Spain, France, and Italy) from around the world have joined in wine making in the area. The area has all of the basic ingredients (proper climate and soil) needed to make great wine. The area sits in the same latitude as the great wine making areas of the Mediterranean. As a result, now I am a big fan of the area's wine. Now many compare the area to Tuscany Italia before the big tourist rush occurred. The greater area is also home to many Michelin rated restaurants with a great ocean/farm to table menu (carta). Organic and sustainability are fully represented in restaurants as well. If you love seafood, then this place is heaven because of the abundance of fresh seafood from both the Sea of Cortez and the Pacific. I predict that once the new airport in Ensenada is built then this place is going to explode with tourism. Currently, having to fly into Tijuana then take a bus or private transport has been the only way to reach this area from most places in the US with the exception of southern California. People in southern California are lucky enough to drive down for a weekend because it's just that close to them. It's the equivalent of people from Chicago spending a weekend in wine country in Michigan, Indiana, or Wisconsin. In all honesty there is no comparison because most wine in the Midwest is mediocre at best. The problem in the Midwest is the climate extremes which are not suitable to most popular wine varietals. Even when I do find wine from the Midwest that I like, it usually has at least $50-$60 price tag. At a typical grocery store in Spain or Portugal very good bottle of wine is sometimes cheaper than a bottle of water! Under $10 a bottle pricing gets you very good wine, above that you can have even better quality. The winery is beautiful even in the winter. I like to visit in the winter because although it's not super warm here, I go from wearing a winter jacket to wearing a light jacket or sweater. The nights can drop into the 40s which is still much better than a winter polar vortex back home. There is a lot less people, therefore, I can also get into the best restaurants in the area. My rental flat had absolutely no neighbors until the last day when it was time to leave. The isolation was very nice because the grounds are beautiful and very full of life. A huge assortment of birds make this their winter getaway from the harsh winters up north. Citrus fruit was in season down here and the neighboring property had an orchard of trees filled with oranges. The property has a few nice pathways to walk after mealtimes. I also enjoyed the outdoor wine tour which explores the different varietals fields with an enthusiastic guide that was quick witted with jokes. The wine pourings that accommodate the tour were delicious and wisely chosen. I also opted to take the wine cave tour right after the outside tour. How was the cave tour? It was disappointing and frustrating. First of all, as I patiently waited to be taken down to the cave from their gift shop area they forgot about me. They have a list of who is supposed to go down and yet they still went down without everyone?!? Finally a cashier notices that I'm just walking around not shopping and asked me if I was waiting for someone. I told him that I was waiting for the cave tour to begin. He got a hold of the tour guide who had already gone down with some of the group and he came up to retrieve us. Those that were already in the cave, already had been served food that was optional to order with the tasting. After several pourings in the previous tour, yes, I was ready to have some food to lessen the impact of more pourings. Also, they had a nice selection of items that would complement the pourings. Somehow, they forgot about me again, and I noticed others were getting a different presentation than I was on the same tour. Okay, now a sense of frustration is overcoming me and I mention the oversights to the guide. He lied to me and told me that the others had a different level of wine tasting. This disorganized tour was also set up backwards because there should have been a walking tour of the fermentation area first then tastings afterwards. Besides the bad cave tour that I definitely don't recommend. Everything else was great with the exception of the cold washroom on cold nights. They have very nice employees, beautiful grounds, very good breakfast, and a great dinner restaurant called Latitude on the property. Would I come back? Yes, because besides a few frustrating moments the rest was great.

Cielo was a big disappointment for me. Especially because I recommended this place to my friends…read morewho were celebrating a birthday. Service here took a long time to just get menus and initial drinks. We also ordered food that was no longer available. When we did order, the food took near an hour to come to our table. The place was severely understaffed and most of our utensils were dirty. Place offers great views of the vineyard. It's just about the only good thing this place has. Sadly. They do have a "Michelin rated" restaurant inside the building, curious to see what the service there is. Overall, i would say there are so many other wineries around Valle de Guadalupe that offer better services/food and drinks.

Casa Magoni is something else entirely. By the time we got here we'd already done Monte Xanic,…read moreBruma, and Vena Cava, so I thought I knew what wine tasting in the Valle looked like. I did not. The grounds are stunning. You're on an active working orchard with views in every direction, and dropped right in the middle of it is the most enormous oak tree I have ever seen. That tree, you guys. It's MASSIVE. Ancient. The whole property is built around it, and drinking wine in its shade was straight up surreal. There were dogs wandering around. Families on picnic blankets. A live band playing under the tree. People dancing on their own. It's magical. The wine was freaking delicious. The charcuterie was good. The service was good. Nothing stood out either way on the service, but with everything else going on, I genuinely didn't pay attention. This isn't a quiet, learn-about-your-tannins kind of tasting. It's a hangout, and it's the kind of afternoon you'll be talking about long after you go home. A must on any Valle trip. Pro tip: come hungry, come ready to hang out, and come ready to feel like you're in a fairy tale, because that tree. Just sayin'!

We bought 1 white, and 2 reds to bring back to CA with us. We can't wait to share this with our families! Unfortunately we went through the San Ysidro border crossing back to Southern CA and found out that the max limit is 1 liter of alcohol (about 1 to 2 standard bottles) ever 31 days. We bought bottles of wine from 2 other wineries as well. Fortunately, US Customs and Border Protection let us go with a warning and did not confiscate our wines!
