    "Papas Dulce" Bowl with steak
    Ele E.

    Good food, fun place and great people. Service was great, accommodated our group and even took pictures for us. Lots of options and even for vegan options.

    The Sangria

    The vibes and the food were amazing! Our bartender was very quick and attentive. Our food took a little longer to come out, but the manager came out, apologized, and personally delivered our food. Definitely recommend this place!

    Fish tacos

    Excellent. We had lunch here and everything was fantastic. I personally found the guac and my lunch not salted enough but that wasn't an issue since they had salt on their table! Great location and ambiance!

    Cesar salad with beef
    Crystal C.

    We were visiting Coronado and looking for a place to watch the FIFA games. The food was delicious, but I wouldn't consider it authentic Mexican cuisine. It's more of a modern, Americanized take on Mexican food. That said, the cheese balls on my salad were absolutely delicious! The restaurant is beautifully decorated with a great atmosphere, making it a nice spot to relax and enjoy a drink. The service, however, could have been more attentive. We had several different servers during our visit, so I never really knew who our main waiter was. We even had to flag someone down just to get our bill. Overall, the food was good, the ambiance was enjoyable, and it's a great place to grab drinks and watch a game. With more attentive service, it would have been an even better experience.

    Empanadas- pineapple
    Tae S.

    Came here with a big group and everything was fantastic. The service was prompt, helpful and everything flowed nicely. The food was full of flavor. We had a ton of appetizers. We tried the queso, guacamole, and Mexican pizzas (short rib and margarita) everything was tasty. I ordered a combo which consisted of the short rib enchilada, carnitas taco and the fish taco. The fish taco was devine, the enchilada made me want to lick the plate and the carnitas was very tender. The rice that comes with the meals is a hidden gem. Everyone as the table made comments on how tasty the rice was. For desert, the server recommended pineapple empanadas and I was skeptical. However, they were great. I would come here again, I may stop by before I leave tomorrow.

    Some of the best Mexican food in the San Diego area in my opinion.My chicken tinga enchilada, cheese enchilada, and chile verde enchilada were all very tasty, and so were the sauce. chips and salsa. The guacamole was also excellent. One of the best cadillac margaritas I've had as well. Prices are a bit on the higher side , but the food quality sure makes up for it .

    Everything I had here was delicious! My watermelon margarita was amazing. We had both chips and guac, and I enjoyed the freshness of the guacamole. I had two mahi tacos and after a week of good eating, I could barely finish them. That being said, I did eat the fish out of the tortilla, and it was very fresh and yummy.

    There was a bit of a wait on a Thursday night, about 25 minutes and they text you when your table is ready. Most of the food was pretty good and I got the cheese crisps just out of curiosity but I would never recommend that dish to anyone. It's basically a disappointing and really sad tortilla with cheese on top. It would probably be great for kids though and people who don't need seasoning. It was a bit hard to get the server's attention but overall it was an ok dining experience.

    Tres leches
    Dung N.

    I've been meaning to check this eatery out and finally did so a couple of years ago. The space is inviting and staff are friendly. We were given complimentary chips and salsa and then ordered some drinks that came with watermelon garnish. We shared the spicy mango ceviche and a cheese crisp for our appetizers. Both were delicious! The cheese crisp was very interesting! We opted for the spicy tiger shrimp fajitas for our entree. It's served with blistered peppers, charred onions, jack cheese, guacamole, salsa fresca, sour cream, choice of beans and tortillas. It was very tasty! We ended up trying frozen margarita and an agua fresca as well. The frozen margarita is so refreshing, especially on a hot summer day. For dessert, we got the tres leches cake and it was the perfect ending to our dinner.

    Love this restaurant! They have lots of seating area inside & outdoors but it's busy with locals & tourists. We sat at the bar and ordered or else the wait was over an hour for a table. We enjoyed the ceviche and the carne asada quesadilla. They give chips & salsa and yes they are yummy. Lots of fun people to see and the bar has TVs with sports playing. It gets very loud inside and it's very kid friendly. Bartenders are spot on and very friendly. It's a great place to come grab a bite to eat & drink.

    Chips & Salsa

    We spotted this cantina and restaurant while visiting the AR Workshop in Coronado. We decided to try them out while waiting for the rest of our party members for our appointment at AR Studio. I walked up to the take out window and ordered. A young gentleman helped me. He said that my food would be out in 12-15 minutes. Well, I found a table on the side if the catina and set my things down. I noticed that the staff had also used these tables to meet with the managers or employees, and to eat their lunch break meals. AT NO TIME DID ANYONE ON THE STAFF TELL ME THAT I SHOULD BE SITTING IN THE AREA TO BE SERVED ON THE CATINA PATIO. My food took 22 minutes and I had to walk back up to the window to retrieve it...WTH I tipped 15% at a walk up window and you all can't walk it to my sidewalk table 10 feet away? The rest of our party started to arrive so they decided to also order food. Luckily, their food was ready in 10 minutes. The staff delivered their orders to our table, which made more sense. Overall, it was OK. My wet carne asada burrito no sour cream, diet pepsi, and chips with salsa was tasty but definitely not worth the $30 pricetag. I will not visit again. The customer service was spotty and the whole dining at the sidewalk tables for staff situation was not cool.

    Crispy Shell Ground Beef & Traditional Carnitas tacos ($7/each HH menu)
    Gina Z.

    While visiting Coronado, I stopped for dinner and happened to arrive during the restaurant's happy hour: Monday to Friday from 3:00pm to 5:00pm. The vibe of the restaurant was pretty dope. They have an outdoor seating area blended with indoor seating. The decor was stunning. I loved the wallpaper and light fixtures. The tunes were bumpin'. The restaurant wasn't surprisingly too busy and was pretty family-friendly. I was so excited to take a bite into my first CA tacos! As I settled in and opened the menu, full transparency: I was shocked to see the "happy hour specials: $7 tacos"... regularly $14!? Thinking these HAD to be next-level incredible, I stopped judging and ordered two "Birria" tacos, two "traditional Carnitas" tacos, and a "crispy shell Ground Beef" taco. We paired our tacos with their "Classic" house Margarita. Chips and salsa were brought to the table with our drinks, and we enjoyed those for a bit before the food came out. I wish I were writing this to report that I had the best tacos of my life, but sadly, that's not the case. The Birria taco had an excessive amount of untrimmed fat in the meat, which made each bite unpleasant and forced me to spit out pieces I couldn't chew. This made the overall texture unappealing and the experience disappointing. Not my preferred way to enjoy my tacos. I don't believe this was an issue of happy hour pricing, but rather poor food preparation. I was only able to finish one taco and took the other to-go. As for the traditional carnitas taco, it was okay but lacked anything that set it apart. I say this with kindness, but if you've had a TB crunchy taco supreme, you've tried this restaurant's crispy shell ground beef taco. The classic margaritas were strong and well made. We thoroughly enjoyed them! If you asked me, would I go back for seconds? I'd likely not reorder the tacos. For the price, I expected higher-quality preparation and presentation; instead, it fell short. Personally, I'm glad I visited during Happy Hour. I'd file this one under cool place for drinks and a light bite, if you must.

    Very welcoming Mexican food establishment. Seating was fast, as they have a spacious dining area, large wrap around bar and outside dining options. Wait staff was lovely, and our cocktails kept us thirsty! We certainly left content.

From the spooky, dark, skulls old school ambiance and decor, to the experience of not ordering from a menu, everything about it made it feel unique and curated making it feel like a true individualized experience. As mentioned, there are no menus. We sat at the bar, the bartender makes casual conversation with you regarding the types of drinks you enjoy.

When you enter the restaurant, you let the hostess know you're there for the Noble Experience. She let us know to head to the wall with the kegs (which is actually a door). You enter and there's a small waiting area where you're greeted by another hostess. This place is a 20/10. We can't wait to return on our next visit to SD.

Before I get started on the hundreds of amazing things to say about this place, let's start off with one "annoying" thing. It was hard to find. There were absolutely no signs in the hotel pointing you to where the restaurants would be. We also asked several hotel staff members and got even more confused. Once we found the little strip of several restaurants, we accidentally walked right past it thinking it was apart of the NoBu restaurant. Now that I know where it is, I'll know exactly where to go. Let's talk about all the GOOD! The view was beautiful. There were lots of kids playing on the grass in front of the restaurant but the way they set up the place, it wasn't loud at all and cute to see. The staff members were on top of their game. Nothing went unnoticed! They all worked as a team. The Knowledge about the restaurant, the food, and the drinks was very impressive. Even if you couldn't decide, they would happily guide you to make the right choices. - I want to give a shoutout to Mark our waiter. He was an absolute delight. He was witty, knowledgeable, lead us in the right direction, and spoiled us for our birthday celebration dinner. He made the experience 10x better. About the food...I'm still thinking about the delicious food they served and it's been weeks since I was there. I want to put extra attention on the halibut ceviche, WOW! That needs to be a staple is you visit, it's a must try. Also please don't ever take this off the menu! I would solely travel out here just for the alone and buy 5 at a time (yes it was that good). The sauce they put it in makes my mouth water just thinking about it. Everything here is very unique and worth it. There wasn't one bad food item at all. Plus the drinks, were so smooth. If for whatever reason you wanted to alter your drink (like someone at my party did) they were happy to accommodate and then they also executed perfectly. It is a little bit on the pricier side, but once you experience the service, the extra care, and the delicious food you can confidently say it's worth it. I hope more people experience this place, they deserve more than five stars.

The focaccia was good, although I didn't care for the chicken-like flavor of the butter served with it. The Greek chicken was bland. I couldn't tell what made it "Greek," since the seasoning added little flavor, and the chicken was simply cut into chunks. The whole fish of the day tasted good, but I was shocked to find out it cost $200. When I asked what the fish of the day was, our server told me what it was but didn't mention the market price. I would never have ordered it had I known. I was also left unsure what the preparation was supposed to be. At the table, the server squeezed lemon over the fish, and that was the extent of the presentation I saw. I understand that "market price" can vary, but $200 is a price I would have expected the server to disclose before we ordered. Between that surprise, the slow and messy service, and food that was mostly underwhelming, the views were not enough to make up for the experience. I won't be back, ever.

The service was excellent so that's all I'm going off of. The menu did look pretty fire though, so I'd be willing to give it another shot cause for all intents and purposes, the other people in the restaurant seemed to be really enjoying the food! But anyways... I'm a skillet cookie connoisseur. Any place that has a skillet cookie, I'm going there SOLEY to order it. If I ever get married, instead of having cake, my guests will be having skillet cookies for dessert instead. Some might say I love skillet cookies even more than Scottie Scheffler. My love for skillet cookies runs deeper than the Mariana trench and I've been to more than (at least) 11 restaurants to exclusively try them out. With that out of the way... I'm horrified to report this is the worst skillet cookie I've ever had in my entire life. It somehow felt overcooked, yet undercooked at the same time. It was also like they cooked it at an angle. Because it awkwardly occupied 3/4ths of the skillet. It had the consistency of a cake but the taste of a cookie? It was like they couldn't decide whether or not they wanted to make a cake or a cookie. So instead, they decided to half bake something that was in between. I couldn't believe it. It was also completely lacking in the chocolate chip department. All in all, this skillet cookie had a worse performance than Michael Jordan during his high school varsity tryouts. I'll admit it too... I completely lied to the waitress when she came over and asked me how the cookie was. Instead of telling her the truth, I gave her two thumbs up and said, " it's good!".... It was not good. It was terrible! I'm a coward.

Our server was sweet and somewhat attentive. She checked in right after bringing our food and then we didn't see her again until we were done eating and out of drinks. I'm not saying I wouldn't recommend giving it a try, but at that price point, I expected better quality food.

Parking is a nightmare good luck finding parking within a mile of the restaurant. Pros: atmosphere, drinks, service Cons: food wasn't great for the price, restaurant was small and crowded, no parking Service: All of our servers were friendly and very accommodating. Gave us some knowledge on the menu and recommended cocktails based on our preference. I had spilled my drink and they were quick to make me another one. Food: I had intended to get the prime ribeye cap steak but they ran out for the night around 8pm. I shared the steak sampler which came with four different cuts of steak and 4 sauces. I ordered medium and it was cooked medium/medium rare which was fine with me, it also had a good sear, almost burnt though. Out of the four steaks, we only liked two based off flavor and tenderness. The other two were more tough and gamey. None of the sauces really stood out but the bordelaise and horseradish were good. For our sides we got fries, roasted broccoli, and the grilled wedge salad. Fries were average. The roasted broccoli had really good flavor, I expected the broccoli to be al dente but it was cooked to mush and drenched in sauce. The grilled wedge salad was decent, there was a slightly bitter taste to it. I know it says grilled wedge but the experience of biting into the salad and it being both hot and cold was not pleasant. Cocktails: I tried the Honey Ryder and New Wave. These were recommended as the more fruity/sweet cocktails. You can definitely taste the alcohol but it's only 2oz so it's not too strong. Ambience: 10/10 I got seated downstairs by the bar. Only thing about downstairs is that it's too dark to take photos unless you use flash. Overall, I agree with the other reviews saying to go just for drinks and appetizers. I would go again just to sit upstairs and get drinks and take pictures. We left unsatisfied and ended up getting in-n-out after.

Although…read moreindistinguishable from the outside, the entrance to the speakeasy is clear once you enter Craft & Commerce. Our hostess was really nice and let us sit although a couple of our party members were running late. On that note - reservations for a table are quite hard to get here. My friend just happened to see one pop up on OpenTable and immediately grabbed it. If you don't have a reservation, it's standing room only.  After walking through a cavern of glowing skulls, you emerge into a lively Tiki atmosphere. Colorful glass baubles hang from the ceiling suspended by a rope netting while Tiki effigies stare at you from the walls. There's even a small waterfall in the back corner. The atmosphere inside is lively and busy. The floor is packed with standing patrons chatting about. Lucky for us, we got to sit at one of the few tables they had available. Every once few minutes, the ceiling thunders because one of the groups orders a punch bowl, complete with sound effects and pyrotechnics. My favorite drink of the night was the Mac Nut Chi Chi. It was sweet and creamy, which contrasted very nicely with the salted macadamia nut. I liked it so much, I even asked for the recipe. Another drink I enjoyed was the Saturn, which is a classic Tiki drink. In comparison to the other drinks of the night, this one felt a bit more posh. It was served up and simple and elegant in its presentation. On the nose, it was very refreshing and citrusy, and on the palate, it was light and refreshing with floral notes. I also enjoyed the Reserve Mai Tai, which was quite strong. I can definitely see why it's so hard to get a table at False Idol. I had an amazing time and would totally come back.

    We ate at Craft and Commerce and decided to jump in line for False Idol as walk-ins. Luckily we…read morelined up near opening because there were quite a few reservationists that showed up on a Friday night. We were led into a dimly lit speakeasy soon after lining up. Fortunately we got bar seating. The bar then quickly filled up with many standing as the bar got crowded. As far as drinks, their menu had many listed drinks. Wifey and I started with Rum Old Fashioneds and they were delicious. Our second drink was a King Kong Old Fashioned and it too was yummy. The bartenders were very friendly and attentive. The place was hopping and packed. We will definitely return.
