Day: Sunday Place: small, love decor Service: not really good, took time to let us in, did not advised us there was a ramp to pull up the stroller ( 2 babies) had to lift stroller by the stairs. Asked for coffee has to request for silverware, and waiters seemed overwhelmed. Food: Ok, nothing amazing. Example order waffles with strawberry and banana, waffles are from Costco ( I buy the same). Price: High for breakfast. 1 omelet, 1 chilaquiles, 1 order of waffles, 2 coffees and 2 small desserts over $700 Pesos

My first time there was over the weekend. It's a hidden gem. The food is great! And the staff is absolutely friendly and attentive. The atmosphere is chill. I would go back.

Really good food! We had the Greek omelettes. Served with these delicious blue tortillas that have the best texture and taste! We had an americano on the rocks and a cafe latte and both very flavorful.... snot to mention the beautiful and delicious desserts!!!! They are very pretty and presented elegantly! We had a baklava and the guava cheesecake that has a unique flavor and very light fluffy texture!!! We were very pleased!!! Definitely coming back and bringing friends!!!

This is our favorite place to eat in Tijuana. It can get crowded and I don't know if they take…read morereservations. I had someone call from our hotel and we got right in and there was a line outside. They serve breakfast, lunch and dinner. It is all great. Their breakfast goes from American eggs and bacon with the best potatoes to wonderful burrito type breakfast items. Their menudo is great and they have great Mexican meats as well. Lunch and dinner is about the same. They make Mexican style fish and steak that is just perfect every time. All of their Mexican dishes are just wonderful. You can't go wrong. They even have bottled water--never drink the water there, just don't. They have the best rice and beans. The service is great. They make you feel right at home and even if you don't speak Spanish, most speak English and you will figure it out because they will help you. The prices are fair for what you get. At dinner I consider it fine dining. It is all good and you will be happy. The place is also clean and super comfortable.

I conducted extensive homework to find a place to have breakfast, in Tijuana. I settled on La…read moreEspadana. It has an old spanish mission look on the outside and walking in, you can immediately recognize that it is an impressive and popular place. The decor here is something to write home about. Beautiful wall fixtures, and well crafted local pottery and other artifacts, all around, everywhere. There is ample seating, that is well spaced out. Perfectly pitched Mexican music permeates the atmosphere. There is attentive staff that is so courteous, and welcoming. I wanted to eat lite, and I wanted to eat Mexican, so I chose the Yucatán Tamales. It comes as one pork and one chicken, both slim, wide rectangles, each baked in a banana leaf. They both had their subtle and distinct flavors. Comes with refried beans. The complementary salsas, the rojo and verde, were fresh and tasty. Service was outstanding. Another memorable restaurant in Tijuana, that needs to be filed into the "excellent" and "must go" folders.
