Hubby and I spent the weekend with good friends down in Calafia. We wanted to stop somewhere for breakfast on the way home. I know if we planned to stop in TJ...i would end up just skipping breakfast and head home I honestly couldn't think of anywhere i really wanted to go between Calafia and the border ...Azteca restaurant is in the Rosarito Beach hotel. parking is validated and in a secure garage. table service. Food is a bit Americanized but still a solid meal. we really enjoyed a relaxing and quiet meal. Service is relaxed .... that's a positive spin on slow =) so not the place to go if you have somewhere to be soon. I love that I've been coming here for nearly 30 years and still see the same staff in Azteca. Don't expect a mindblowing meal...but do know you won't be disappointed read more

Terrible food and terrible service. If I could give this place 0 I would. We ordered room service and they brought us dry pancakes and charged us $22 US dollars for 3 pancakes that tasted like cardboard. Thank god we didn't dine there read more

The food was tasty - but not radically different from what you get in California. The staff was very eager to tailor our experience while there: we visited on New Year's Eve and though the staff had a large event to run, they made an effort to serve the handful of people that just wanted a bite quite well. The prices were really good and though the restaurant feels a little bright, it was comfortable and a nice place to get away. You'll have a good memory and will want to go back but it might take a few trips to find something uniquely special on the menu - it's great Mexican food. read more

This place seemed really convenient since it was one of the dining places in the hotel, so I tried it. The place was really simple and did not have a lot of people around. The food seemed fine and we ordered from the bar. I ordered a Cadillac margarita and it was fantastic. The flauta's plate was ok, my expectations were hopeful of flour tortillas instead of corn and the flavor lacked In meat. The ambience was nice but the feeling felt as This restaurant was meant for more the mature crowd. read more

Reviews looked good and place was empty and we was hungry so came here with the family. Let's start of with my scale: 5 Stars - Would Drive 35min + to this place and highly recommend 4 Stars - Would eat here again if in the local area and might recommend 3 Stars - Nothing to write home about. Won't come back unless only option. Won't recommend 2 Stars - Sad. Regret coming here and it was an experience 1 Stars - I wanna go home and cry. Probably didn't finish my food either Let's start of with the 5 Star Items - tortillas, best I've had in a LONG time. We from San Diego as well, they have good homemade tortillas there too -bacon & hashbrown - both crispy and light. Real good 4 Star Items -butter balls - melt nice and decent flavor. And single serving size -cheese omelette. Soft and fluffy. Sides were decent 3 Stars - Chilaquiles were good. Maybe 3.5 stars. We are spoiled and there is a few spots in San Diego that are really good 2 Stars The pancakes were okay. A bit chewy. Not the best. French toast was okay. Nothing great. Overall was a nice experience. Staff spoke mainly Spanish but understood English (in case that matters to anyone). Friendly staff. Place is next to the beach. Nice views read more

Service, My wife called 2 days in advance for dinner reservations on the 4th of July, Booked for 8:15pm . We get there, no reservations found in her name. But we were told wait in the bar till 8:30 they will take care of us. We waited, we went back at 8:30 and were taken to a table with 2 place settings, not three. Someone finally came and brought the additional settings. Then waited for our order to be taken. We were there for an 1 1/2 hrs..no food brought to our table..THAT WAS ENOUGH..PAID FOR OUR DRINKS AND LEFT..Not a nice evening.. read more

This restaurant is located inside the Rosarito Beach Hotel Upon walking in your temperature is taken and hand sanitizer is given to you. Staff is friendly and greet you upon arrival Food was good. I ordered chicken flautas and a beer. Friend opted to order breakfast, pancakes and eggs with coffee The food was good. Our table had a nice view of the pool and the beach I did notice employees spaying tables down and wiping chairs after each guest. That is a plus There is a nice big bar also located in the restaurant read more

Azteca Restaurant - Tequila wall - Bars Near Me - Rosarito, BCN

Azteca Restaurant, located within the Rosarito Beach Hotel offers guests a traditional Mexican dining experience. As I walked through the arched entrance I noticed the decor of Mexico is punctuated with plastered walls painted in hues of earth-toned colors, large paintings, and hand carved wooden chairs. The restaurant offers a full bar with a well thought out menu and excellent customer service. From the moment we sat down our server took exceptionally great care of us. We started with a margarita of Corazon tequila and lime as we pondered the lunch menu. It was snack time, so to avoid ruining dinner we shared an entree of yellowtail, vegetables and refried beans. When our dishes arrived we were offered fresh bread and whimsically shaped butter on the side which was a nice change from the tortillas that are omnipresent in Mexico. The beans and vegetables were delicious, however the yellowtail was a bit over cooked and the kitchen had not removed the bloodline which has a strong fishy flavor that I am not fond of. I requested a bit of spicy sauce that was divine and when I return I will definitely request that chile sauce again. Azteca is a great choice for dining in Rosarito Beach as it offers ocean views, good food, outstanding service and is a great way to escape the loud and cheezy restaurants studding the tourist zone. read more

Came for Sunday brunch. They have variety of Mexican dishes. Perhaps about 15 different choices to choose from (excluding fruit and soup). We came early at 7:30 AM and the omelette station wasn't ready so can't comment on that. Overall, it was alright except for a few standouts. Good god their fish fillet in green sauce is amazing. I'm so used to eating fish that's obviously frozen, so it was a spectacular delight to taste fish that's so fresh and creamy. The green sauce didn't have a very strong taste, so it complements the fish very well. Interesting to see the lady make fresh quesadillas in front of you, and they tasted good! Nice and crispy on the edges with gooey queso in the middle. Beef tripe soup? Sorry I forgot to get the name of this, but it's like the Mexican soup version of beef stomach from dim sum (牛雜). Interesting take! Jamaican water is basically berry drink of blueberry (and açaí?) Pretty cool. And, it wasn't too sour! read more

This restaurant is inside rosarita beach resort . Not the best food in town but definitely best view though. Restaurant has nice beach view . Service was bit slow but that's what I experienced in all the restaurants there . One of the cheapest margaritas, I think it was $4 , though I felt alcohol was bit less. Best part of restaurant is bar area with open sitting and big piano n live music read more

Azteca is the restaurant located inside the Rosarito Beach Hotel. The Hotel itself is old school and the original structure goes back to the 1920's. I hadn't eaten at the restaurant here in a long time and it has going through different reincarnations throughout the years. We came in mid-week and it was pretty quiet. The menu has your typical Mexican fare. They do breakfast, lunch and dinner. We started with Margaritas. They did not blow me away and the mix tasted like the Speedy Gonzalez Margarita Mix you get in the States. I didn't taste very much tequila. I went with a Mexican combo plate with enchiladas, a chili relleno and a flauta. It was good for the most part, but with all the options around town, I don't think I would drive out of my way to have a meal here again. They do have a cool bar, and the service was excellent. If you were staying at the hotel, than this would be a convenient option for a meal. read more

Since we stayed at the Rosarito Beach Hotel and Azteca is located on the property, we ate here three times over our stay. On the first night, I ordered the chicken enchiladas as a late night meal. It had taken us longer than expected to arrive and we barely made it downstairs to the restaurant before they closed. I didn't have long to look at the menu and decide so I stuck with my traditional Mexican go-to. While the enchiladas weren't the best that I've ever had, they were perfectly fine. The rice, however, I wasn't a fan of as it was rather bland. We returned to Azteca the following morning for their breakfast buffet, which happened to be included in our Living Social resort deal. I must say that I was pleasantly surprised by the quality of the buffet. I've never tried chilaquiles before, mainly because I'm afraid to commit to a whole plate of something new, but I was excited to try them at the buffet. Even my friends who have regularly eaten chilaquiles raved about them so I think I picked a good spot to try. Both the read and green were delicious but I'm slightly partial to the green sauce, which has a bit of a tang to it. The breakfast potatoes were wonderful but it was the French toast which blew me away. I've always loved a good French toast but find that most buffets serve dried up bread. Not so here! This French toast was moist and had a sweet flavor that didn't require any additional syrup. I went back for seconds and maybe thirds. There was also an omelette and quesadilla station but I wasn't a big fan of the topping selection so I skipped it. The beverage bar was nice with horchata (yum!) and orange juice. Plus, our deal included a complimentary mimosa so that was nice perk! The Sunday buffet is even a step above the Saturday one. As such, there was also an additional cost of $11 per person but it was well worth it. The freshly sliced beef was a nice bonus as was the dessert bar. There was also a fresh made waffle bar but I didn't try it because I continued to be obsessed with the French toast. Overall, I was largely impressed with this hotel restaurant. We managed to start both of our mornings with full breakfasts that left us stuffed for the majority of the day so both our bellies and wallets were happy. read more

We decided to stay in and try the breakfast at the hotel called Azteca. I was pleasantly pleased with the service ambiance and the taste of my breakfast. I ordered the Chinchillas with egg and it was wonderful. We also ordered the giant breakfast which they were more than happy to substitute for French Toast and that was also pleasant. Pleased with all food, service and all in between. read more

Azteca Restaurant - Bars Near Me - Rosarito, BCN

The Azteca Restaurant and Bar located off the main lobby of the Rosarito Beach Hotel serves Mexican and Continental entrees with the famous Puerto Nuevo style lobster as one of the house specialties. The Azteca had excellent service - it could not have been better. For breakfast the machaca was good, as was the vegetarian omelet and the camarones (shrimp) omelet. The orange and cactus juice blend was great. The shrimp cocktails are mucho bueno. The piano player said he was there from 10 to 3. The bar lets you take drinks to your room. We took a pitcher of marguerita to avoid a second trip. Our table by the window had a small plaque next to it on the wall that said Table 17 was the favorite of actor Robert Stack. I've heard that other celebs have haunted the scene here, such as Vin Diesel, Mel Gibson, Robert Redford, and others. read more

Meh. The food was probably the worst I have had in Mexico. Ceviche was rubbery. Carnitas tacos were kinda grizzly. I don't usually leave bad reviews, but I was kinda disappointed after eating so much good stuff this trip. We also got some chicken flautas that were just meh. I think the kitchen needs a make over cause the dishes are pretty basic. I mean if your salsa is bad, you know the rest of the meal of going to be pretty wack. I was going to leave 2 stars, but then my friend found a fish bone in her chicken flautas ‍ read more

I am so thankful for this restaurant especially as a guest at Rosarito Beach Hotel because there is always some kind of deal going on that keeps me coming back for more. I love their buffets on Saturday and Sunday mornings. They offer a variety of authentic Mexican dishes with fresh ingredients. The quesadillas for example are made with handmade- in-front-of-you tortillas. Pancakes, omelettes and waffles are all made in front of you as well. Unlike some of the Mexican buffets here in the states they batch cook and let their food just sit their and get stale. To my surprise the cooks at the buffet work super fast and hard to get everyone back to their tables and enjoy their meals as quickly as possible. Make sure you drop some money their jars whenever you can to let them know how much they are appreciated. Otherwise go back home to stale buffet food. Enough raving about their buffet, let's move on with their regular menu. My only suggestion is for them to have more vegetarian and plant based options. Their blended drinks though are amazing and made with frozen fruit. The best part of all is that their prices are super affordable yet competitive with other restaurants outside of the hotel. read more

We dined here 3 times for our visit--2 breakfasts were included in our Groupon hotel package The service was easily 5 stars, extremely warm, attentive and responsive to any and all requests. Coffee refilled constantly and special requests like butter for tortillas, or fresh Pico de Gallo accommodated in a snap! The breakfast that came with our hotel stay Groupon was for scrambled eggs with chorizo or bacon, with chilaquiles, refried beans, coffee and glorious FRESHLY-MADE tortillas, hand made and griddled right in the middle of the dining room. Light scrambled eggs with just the right amount of chorizo, not greasy, great salsa on the side, and Ohh, those tortillas!! On a separate lunch we shared a shrimp cocktail and chile rellenos--fresh Chiles, not-too-heavy batter- only downfall was most cheese had leaked out of one relleno. Did not try dinner, but can recommend for breakfast and lunch! read more

Very good food and service and the Shrimp cocktail is the best i ever had!!!Lots of shrimp and avocado!!!!!

Everything here has been delicious. We have had very generous portions and they have a value menu which is good and filling for the bargain price of $8. Plus they have a full menu. This place has old Mexican charm. The Thanksgiving dinner was amazing, who knew that one could get such a fabulous "an American classic Turkey Dinner" in Mexico? Our daughter loved it! Also a bottle of local wine startes out at $14! A big bowl of local fresh fruit, watermelon, cantaloupe, strawberries, bananas, honeydew, papaya, pineapples enough for two to share for $3.50! For less than $10, I enjoyed a shredded beef taco, cheese enchilada, and a chili relleno, rice, beans chips and salsa and fresh chili's. read more

Staying at the Rosarito Beach Resort with a Travelzoo coupon so had lots of freebies here. The ceviche was a nice appetizer at the bar (I got it two days in a a row, I recommend asking for corn chips instead of the saltines). Had breakfast at the restaurant and enjoyed the shrimp omelette... So good. The music and ambiance was hit and miss... But the characters in the bar were always fun. One night there was hilarious Symphony Orchestra music overhead, interspersed with a guy playing epic classic movie theme songs badly (think Dr Zhivago, and "Overjoyed" by Stevie Wonder, etc). Still, it was great fun. The next afternoon, when it was very busy, a lady in the corner of the bar played Mexican music from her iron, later competing with the piano guy who had returned with more swag than the night before... Hilarity ensued... The place is quaint, a little old fashioned, delicious...and fun. read more
