The food was delicious -- we tried the pizza with beans and chicken, which came with a side of tomato pasta. I ordered a salad with plantains that I really liked, someone else had octopus tostadas, and another dish was a pasta with cilantro sauce. My son had a double burger that looked more like a triple -- it was huge! Everything tasted great and the prices felt fair. The only downside was that our server seemed to lack a bit of empathy or warmth in customer service. Also, the place is a bit hidden and doesn't have a parking lot, so you have to park on the street. But overall, we had a very good experience and would definitely come back when we're in Tecate again!

The restaurant is full of beautiful art and little treasures that make the whole space feel magical. The service was amazing and very quick. They also bring a stand for your purse. All the food we ordered was phenomenal. We started with guacamole for the table (shared between six people) and it was the perfect portion. For brunch I ordered the Tostadas de Borrego (lamb tostadas) and pork belly tostadas with pozole, and every bite was incredible. The lamb meat was super tender and flavorful. The pork belly was flavorful and with the pozole created a nice bite. Definitely adding this spot to my "must go back" list and try more from the menu.

Also tried the quinoa salad and a beet plate from the specials menu. Both were insanely delicious, with portions so big I couldn't even finish. The vibe inside is adorable. It's kind of shabby chic farmhouse, cozy but stylish. I had a spicy mezcal margarita that was smoky, refreshing, and came with a frozen watermelon garnish that was such a fun touch. Service was super friendly and attentive the whole time. Definitely recommend making a reservation since it gets busy. I'll absolutely be going back.

We thoroughly enjoyed both the service and the delicious food during our vacation. The restaurant emphasizes locally sourced, seasonal ingredients, and each dish was thoughtfully explained to us, which enhanced the overall experience. Expect to pay around $100 USD per person for the eight-course meal. For us, dining here was a special treat while on vacation, and we left feeling completely satisfied. In fact, we were glad we chose the eight-course option, as the ten-course meal would have been more food than we could comfortably enjoy. Enjoy your Top Chef dinning experience!

The bathroom was clean, and they do have a kids' play area (although it was closed when we visited, I believe because it was Valentine's Day). Overall, a great experience every time, highly recommend!

As it is conveniently located in the Miguel Hidalgo park square. It is one on the first resturants that you can visit on the beginning of the Ruta Del Vino. This slower paced town has many hidden gems and this is definitely one of them. Hector is passionate about his hometown and in his resturant showcases many regionally sourced offerings. The wine was all from the Gaudalupe Valley and many of their beer were from Ensenada's Transpenninsular Brewery. The calamari was delicious and the staff was very gracious and accommodating. Its was one of the highlights of my weekend getaway. I loved that I could ask many questions about the area and the owner shared some pearls of wisdom of other places to go and visit while in Tecate.

A big, beautiful tree was lit up with lights at night and the outdoor seating was comfortable and plentiful. We ordered the queso fundido as an appetizer and were seriously blown away by how good it was! The cheese remained melty and soft the entire time we were eating it which, if you've ever had queso fundido before, you know it can be a race against the clock before it gets hard and difficult to eat. We also shared a pasta dish and a steak - both were cooked perfectly and were delicious. It was so much food! I also must mention that their wine selection was nice and our server and bartender were both knowledgable and able to make a good recommendation for me when I wanted to order a bottle. My boyfriend got a beer and said it was the most perfectly cold beer he'd had in a really long time (which is no easy feat since it was a very hot night). He actually wanted to keep returning just to get an ice cold brewski! Our service was impeccable and, even though there were some mosquitos (drawn in by the tree and the garden), they were quick to get citronella candles on our table and provide us with bug spray that actually smelled really good! If you find yourself in Tecate, don't pass up Vinoteca!
