We also ordered one each of their empanadas which was the highlight of our Ensenada culinary adventure. It was delicious warm, but we discovered it tasted better when we got home. The slightly sweet crust only reveals the full flavor profile at room temperature or slightly chilled. I have not had empanadas of this quality except in Miami. Service was super friendly but food took 15 minutes to prepare. One person in the restaurant spoke perfect English so ordering was no problem.

That's what you should expect from a Michelin-starred restaurant. Let's start with the tuna tartar tostada. It was a bluefin tuna with an oil blend, raw onion with ginger, jicama, Serrano chili, and ponzu sauce with cured lemon. It was so fresh and well-balanced. Next, I got the Tiradito De Jurel, which was so delicious and fresh. It is jurel fish mix of oils, chilhualcle chili paste, fried chives, fried kale, ponzu sauce with cured lemon. Next, I tried the green ceviche. It was the catch of the day, house marinade, green pasta, cherry tomatoes, cucumber, and green apple. You can identify each ingredient and flavor. Next, I tried the Black Aguachile, which had shrimp black paste with chintextle, red onion, cilantro, jicama, and sliced cucumber. The black aguachile had a very smoky flavor. Something I've never tried before. For drinks, I had a ceniza de corazón. It had white bacanora, cucumber, extract, and chili ash syrup, and a mojito, which had rum, mint, and lemon. The service was top tier. The waiter answered all of our questions. He was excellent. I would definitely come again.

We made reservations for brunch and Mixtura was a fitting end to an overall incredible experience for our first time in the Valley. Initially, the service was a little scattered as I think our waitress was a little overwhelmed with a large group of 13 women. However, she was joined by a second server and we were on a roll. Tots to the mixologist, the drinks were beautifully displayed and my French 75 adorned with a lavender sprig was deserving of its own photo shoot. Oh my heavenly the food was to die for! We literally ordered a smorgasbord of food to include the browned butter waffles that we all salivated over! The raw and grilled oysters, tuna crudo, Neapolitan pizza and hummus are just a few items we ordered. We thoroughly enjoyed our time here and cannot wait to come back.

In the past, I've had some really great meals and experiences there, which is why this review is difficult to write. Unfortunately, during my most recent visit to the Clairemont Mesa location, the food quality was noticeably different from what I remembered. Several items tasted stale, cold, and as though they had been reheated. The beans were mushy and lacked flavor, and the plantains seemed old and not freshly prepared. Overall, the meal felt below the standard I had experienced there before. I'm sharing this not to criticize harshly, but because I genuinely remember this restaurant being much better and I hope they can return to the quality and freshness that made the place special in the past. I truly want to see them succeed and improve because there is a lot of potential there.

Washed it down with their Salvadorian Horchata. The Caldo de Pollo doesn't have any meat inside the soup, but the broth itself was simply delicious and fresh. Came with a lemon slice and it was perfect after squeezing it in there. The plate came with two pieces of fried chicken and it was cooked nicely. Loved the rice as well, it was like a pilaf. Jalapeno and cheese papusa was sooo good with the melty cheese and chopped fresh jalapeno. The horchata tasted deliciously housemade. Pretty big and a full restaurant during lunchtime on a Saturday. Service is very friendly. Food came out in about 10 minutes. Small parking lot but was lucky to get a spot. Will definitely be back!

First I have to be honest that this was the first time I had a freshly made pupusa. Before this I only had frozen ones from Costco. These pupusas were so much better in taste and texture, although the spinach and cheese one was more on the salty side. The 3 pies were also very good. You have a choice for a pork, chicken, or a potato pie which we got one of each for our order. They were all good but I especially liked the chicken and potato ones. The chicken soup was very good. Good balanced amount of chicken and vegetables. Service was great. The server was helpful in helping us choose menu items. And she was good about checking on us during our visit.

The service here is pretty good. Drinks were decent too. My only gripe was the food orders. I ordered a cowboy cut steak ($650 mxn pesos) which came with mash potatoes and roasted veggies. I ordered it medium, but it was rubbery and a bit bland. Not sure if the quality the meat rationalized the price. I got that same answer from other people in our group. However, the Mexican food my father in law and kids ordered were on par. Even though this is a steakhouse, not sure if I'd order another one. But only time will tell. Maybe I'll just have to order a different cut of steak. Parking is mainly street, but there is also a parking lot with about 5 spots. If you're in the area give it a try. Buen provecho!

Apps I tried: Papa Rellena de Carne - dangerous for me bc I love these! perfectly fried, crispy outside, soft and creamy inside, super flavorful Croqueta de Pollo - soo good ! crispy and packed w/ flavor the sauces they give you all paired so well with each appetizer! Empanada la Cubanita - 1000/10. perfectly fried, crispy exterior, packed w/ juicy well seasoned pork! the mustard added the perf tangy kick Main dish: I ordered the Ropa Vieja and let me tell you, the meat was cooked to perfection. I'd def order this again! It was tender, juicy and sauced so well. The rice was soft and the beans were a bit simple, they paired well with everything. Drinks: I wanted to try something cultural, so I went with the Malta it's rich, slightly sweet & super unique. Also, threw in a Coco Rico, this was super refreshing. I asked Morgan to bring any coffee and it was smooth and bold such a good way to end my meal. And you have to try the desert ! I didn't catch the name but it was absolutely worth it.

Made a quick stop before heading to the Padres game and ordered the Cubano sandwich, (2) birria empanadas, (1) papa rellena de queso, and (1) papa rellena de carne. The food was absolutely delicious! The Cubano sandwich was fire!!! A warm, pressed sandwich blending savory, smoky, and tangy flavors. It featured layered roast pork, glazed ham, Swiss cheese, dill pickles, and yellow mustard, all served on crisp, buttered Cuban bread. The birria empanadas were packed with flavor! The consome was a nice accent to the dish. But the real highlight were the papa rellenas- fried, stuffed croquettes featuring a savory ground beef filling (picadillo) inside a mashed potato shell. They were crispy on the outside, and creamy on the inside! Ridiculously flavorful! Overall, service was excellent! Our server was friendly, helpful, and knowledgeable! She made some excellent suggestions and recommendations! This place never disappoints! We will definitely be back for more! Psss... order the mojito with coconut puree! 10/10!
