    A mess!
    Marilyn R.

    The worst bbq ribs we've ever had!! We wanted to try a new place and we were craving BBQ so we saw that this place had good reviews. We ordered 2 of their Baby back Pork Ribs with Jack Daniels and it came with fries, corn on the cob and bread, when we opened the foil container it looked like a disaster the fries were mixed with bbq sauce, and soggy, and the sauce was not Jack Daniel's. Horrible presentation. Then we started eating the ribs and the meat was tough and worst of all it was raw!! So disgusting! Take a look at the pictures see for yourself... There are way better other places in Tijuana. All because we wanted to try something new we're praying we don't get sick for eating raw pork!

    No mask, no entry Temperatures are checked upon arrival We were a party of 6 people and didn't even wait to be seated. However there was a wait for orders to-go. Once we ordered we got our food quickly; everything was delicious, finger-licking good

    Chicken strips with BBQ sauce and bread ..also fries..perfect for teens or kids

    Excellent please...literally what you can expect from a BBQ joint... super nice..the servers DAMNN super nice very happy place. Let's talk about the food, well the portions as expected HUMONGOUS!! the bread and the corn well I can assure you it's enough for you your family cat and dog..and lunch for the next day. My husband had the full rack of bbq beef ribs for 300 and something pesos..the equivalent to 16 Us dollars given or take..it comes with 2 corn pieces and 2 pieces of bread ohhh and a huge bed if fries...this is for 2 people but I have a big husband so... The kid had chicken strips with bbq sauce and same ..fries and bread. Me...a delicious carne asada fries with nacho cheese...WOW!! BREAD INCLUDED! did I mention the bread was amazing hahaha!! They have a cucumber lime and chia water so refreshing.. Cool place..family friendly, big parties too. If you dont like to wait you can call in advance some sort of reservation or take out. Enjoy the pictures!!!

    Craft beer was a no-no for me.

    Was up all night finding places to eat with the family a day before heading to TJ. It had been a while since I last had some good ribs. Read a couple of reviews and decided to taste them. After watching a movie with the kids, we headed to this place. We were all hungry and decided to get some ribs, turkey leg, and pollo fries. My kids ordered a chia-cucumber-lemon agua fresca and I ordered a craft beer from the region. My wife's pollo fries were good, maybe lacked a tiny bit of flavor, but over all edible Next was the turkey leg. Now that was veryyy good. Too bad we only ordered one and my girls ate most of it. Next were the ribs. Honestly the presentation wasn't the best. Maybe I got a small rack but honestly i wasn't impressed. They were tender but I was not a fan of the bbq sauce. To me it tasted a lot like Carolina BBQ ribs I tasted more vinegar than I did sweetness. It tasted a lot like tomato paste. But enjoyed them anyway. The chia lemon cucumber agua fresca was very good and served in a generous cup. I did not enjoy the craft beer at all. It tasted like a watered-down version of Big Kahuna beer. Overall a pretty good way to end a hectic day. One thing is for sure, I will probably be back for the turkey leg and agua fresca.

    This review is in Spanish so I you don't know Spanish, translate it your self. Okay, okay! Hay muchas cosas de decir de este lugar! Vamos a decir Que hay una pelota enfrente de ti, esa pelota es mi opinion en algun restaurante, vamos a decir Que ecojes unos tacos de la esquina. La pelota va a estar un tamaño mediano. Y luego escojes este restaurante. La pelota va a estar Al tamaño de sol. Las amburguesas estan baratas, ricas, y a buen precio por tener las amburgueseas y elote y las papas fritas. Las alitas estan mas ò menos porque estan chiquitas pero el sabor esta bueno, las costillas estan buenas, los burritos estan como un burrito normal nomas un poquito mas grande de lo normal, ciabatta de arracherra esta sabrosa. Este lugar es muy bueno. si estas en el centro de tijuana, ven aqui. te lo recomiendo!

    Mmmm

    See all

    My burger was way over cooked and the fries were undercooked, which is a bad combination. Nice selection of craft beers.

    I'm not going to go into the obvious of what kind of establishment is linked to this restaurant…read more All I will say is that it is more for adults, as people who work in the adjacent nightclub come here to eat on their break. I will focus this review strictly on the food and service. I've come here periodically to get some food during my excursions to baja. This place is located in Zona Norte along Coahuila Street. Access can be gained through either Coahuila Street, or through the alleyway between Cohauila St. and First Street. (FYI: Coahuila Street and this alleyway are the only safe part of this region, do NOT go venturing to any other part of Zona Norte). The main restaurant area is a short walk up a flight of stairs from those two streets. Inside, the place is clean, brightly lit, and staffed by attentive waiters and waitresses. There is plenty of seating here, despite it being pretty busy at times. My favorite dish is the filet mignon. This comes with a side of loaded baked potato, veggies, and dinner bread. I usually like to add rice. To drink, my personal favorite is the lemonade sans the sugar, their regular coffee, and sometimes, their iced mocha. The food is pretty good here, very flavorful and prepped with care. The price matches the quality. Paying in cash here is far less of a hassle than paying with card. They require you to let them photo-copy your ID, and for your signature to match meticulously. If you find yourself venturing to this part of Tijuana, and hunger strikes you, then give this place a try.

    Everything is absolutely delicious they really know how to make great food and every time I'm in…read morethe area I will definitely be back!

    He visitado Barrikas, Slowburger, Beverly Burgers, Indie Burgers, Mark Burgers, Nantli Burger,…read moreBurger Jack, Hulk's Y Truck 91. Esta son mis preferidas. (pueden revisar mi perfil para leer las demas) En estados unidos no es comun el concepto de un restaurante con un menú limitado, y si In-And-Out es exitoso, es por que se enfocan en hacer una sola cosa bien. Y te puedo decir que prefiero Yo Mommaz Burgers a In-And-Out. Las papas de In-And-Out tiene una textura de cartón y la carne aunque esta simple en sazón, algo le falta. Y aunque son mis favoritas, nunca he visitado este lugar (siempre pido por Uber Eats). El Menú es aun mas simple que In-And-Out. Las Hamburguesas son riquísimas, todo fresco, la carne jugosa, el pan simple sin quitarle la atención a los demás, con su salsa secreta y pepinillos bien balanceado. Creo que el dueño hace algunos años creo un post en reddit tijuana donde invitaba a su establecimiento y el decia que llegó a trabajar en In-And-Out, y mis respeto que le quedan mejor que en la franquicia. Las papas estan en su punto. Las papas regulares son crujientes y nada aceitosa. Las que son estilo la casa son picante y con queso, tiene un picante-dulce muy inusual pero son deliciosas. Nunca he probado las de cilantro, ni las malteadas. No conozco el lugar físicamente y no puedo hacer recomendaciones. Pero si asi estan para llevar, no me imagino lo buenas que deben de estar recién hechas en el restaurante. Las recomiendo muchísimo. EDIT 6/19/2020: Las papas fritas con cilantro las recomiendo mucho! Aprecio que tengan bebidas que no sean solo de la marca Coca-cola. He pedido unas 6 veces de aquí y nunca me ha tocado una mala hamburguesa.

The margaritas are only $5 but are very sweet and I'm not sure how much alcohol is actually in it, so I would pass on those. If you sit outside you will get hassled a lot by street vendors. Overall it was a chill spot, I would stop by again.

After a couple of hours of walking up and down Revoluccion we decided to take a load off our hot feet and have a couple of cold tangy margaritas and a cold beer. The drinks tasted fantastic after huffing around Tijuana. The atmosphere is old school with vintage sepia toned images of Tijuana in the beginning of the 20th century. The pace has a a nice patio right on Revoluccion where it begins . And from the inside you can have a great people watch experience from the open doorway , through the bar window behind the bottles of tequila or out on the patio. A combination of old thick wooden tables and chairs, bright colors and an assortment of curiosities to keep your eyes busy. Nice digital jukebox that takes $$ dollars. Food,, yes, they serve comida and have a pretty good selection . My amigo and I ordered tacos and a plate of mojarra frita. The salsa was excelente and had a nice slow burn simmer to it. The perfect match for the cold beers.Tab for two with drinks, chips , tacos and a large whole fish was under $20.00. Sho' am good !
