    We were on a tour of the GUADALUPE VALLEY W/ ANSELL TOURS…read more We had originally planned on going to LATITUDE 32. However, our driver named CLEMENTE, suggested to my spouse we go here, La Cocina de Doña Esthela. It came with a Michelin Star, but that seemed questionable. We went there on the advice of the driver, CLEMENTE. It was decent food and fairly well priced. COST FOR 3, including driver initially $75.00. I chose the 3 ENCHILADA DINNER, as did my partner. OUR DRIVER ORDERED SHEEP!!! As we waited for the car, the waiter came running out looking for us, mumbling something in Spanish. When my partner returned minutes later, he had about $25 in hand in PESOS!!! He said, after that whole thing, they said that they had admitted to OVERCHARGING US!!! So: $50.00

    This Michelin-starred restaurant in Valle de Guadalupe is an absolute gem! I'm so glad we made a…read morestop here for brunch -- it was truly a memorable experience. Despite being very busy, we were seated right away, which was a pleasant surprise. The space was a bit warm inside, but the incredible food and overall experience made it completely worth it. I had their famous Hotcakes de Elote (corn pancakes), and they were easily my favorite dish of the meal! They were unique, flavorful, and absolutely delicious. I also tried their Machaca con Huevo, which was another standout. Everything we ordered was prepared beautifully and full of flavor. Their homemade tortillas and salsa were the perfect finishing touches and added even more authenticity to the meal. The service was excellent -- our waiter was attentive, friendly, and went above and beyond to make sure we had a great experience. The restaurant itself is spacious and has a wonderful atmosphere. I also noticed the staff singing "Happy Birthday" to guests a couple of times, making it a great spot for a special celebration. I would highly recommend stopping by if you're visiting Valle de Guadalupe. This is definitely a place worth experiencing for the food, hospitality, and unforgettable flavors!

    OBSESSED ! been wanting to try the new location and it did not miss!…read more I ordered two hard shell tacos and a tamal w/ rice and beans! both delicious! Only thing I would change next time is to ask if they can fry the shell a little bit longer cause I need a good crunch lol. The beans and rice were amazing and the little tamal was so good and stuffed with a nice amount of pork. New location is pretty cool! Love that they serve you right away at the counter and then you just grab your spot. Seating is semi limited and they only have one restroom each for men and women. The service was super friendly too! Overall, loved everything except the fact that it was a little toasty inside and the bomb chile made the heat even worse lol 10/10, I'll be back ! ;)

    I'm so excited they are OPEN again in a new location! Love the location, much better than the last,…read moretruly now the center of the community where they belong. Better parking, cleaner, just as few communal tables as the original. Same recipes, menu and service. Same deliciousness!!! A few wish list items - better quality napkins for how juicy everything is - why do Mexican restaurants do that to us? We use 20x more napkins than if you got the good ones. . Also no Mexican Coke in glass which made me sad. Good thing the delicious chicken taco cheered me right up Happy to have you back, Las Cuatro Milpas. San Diego would have never been the same without you.
