I felt so warm and not only was the food delicious, but it was worth every penny! We'll be coming back sooner or later because this is the best burger spot in TJ

Well, I wish I would have read Estefany's review from 2014 where she describes the amazing burger that she tried and reluctantly shared with others. She made it sound awesome and it in turn made me really hungry for a delicious burger. I'll wait until next time, I suppose. Until then, El Local serves as a great little place in the plaza to grab a quick drink and settle in for a few while you pick your next destination. Hell, this may be the only destination next time.

I always say that a burger needs to stand out from other "traditional" burger places, and the ingredient that stood out to me the most was the pickles. The pickles were most definitely house-pickled, and they had such a good kick to the burger! We loved them. After our first bite, my husband and I looked at each other because we immediately noticed that the pickles were different. Then we took our second bite, and it was just a great explosion of flavor in your mouth. We were actually the second customers there, so our burgers were made fresh right after we ordered. The guy working was by himself at the time, taking orders and making the food, so I definitely recommend being patient if you visit when they're short-staffed. Someone came in after us and was told there would be about a 30-minute wait, and I honestly completely understood. He was doing everything himself! We also talked about going back to try their onion rings and maybe even giving their milkshake a shot. Our drink of choice this time was a Michelada, and they use Clamato, which was a HUGE plus for me. I personally can't stand Michis made with Bloody Mary mix. This one was tasty and paired perfectly with our burgers. Overall, we had a really good experience and a delicious meal. If you're coming to Swagyu, I recommend bringing a little patience and optimism. You're getting fresh food, and it's worth the wait!

He had a horrible attitude I could totally understand being left alone and being upset about it. What I dont understand is making customers feel not welcomed, making them feel like a bother and arguing with us over uncooked fries. He was super snarky and I empathize to an extent but dang, we just wanted good food not to bother. I really see this as a management/owner issue more than a reflection of the worker but still left a bad taste for a first visit. Ambiance: I mean its clean. But I'll be ordering to go if we decide to try this place again.

While most places, and rightfully so, serve Mexican food in Tijuana, I'm often on the hunt for something else. In the case of Tu Parrilla I was taking a group of 12 guys for a spin around TJ and to kick the day off we wanted to watch the fight. Tu Parrilla came up in my research and they were very happy to host our group! Fire up the grill, get the burgers ready, throw on some hot dogs, and drop a couple plates of chicken wings on us and we'll be just fine. This was exactly the case and I personally love the cook-it-yourself feature like we find here in San Diego at Turf Club. Oh, yes, they also have steaks on the menu (that you'll have to cook) and someone need to get the guts to cook one or two of those monster tomahawk ribeyes! Aside from the descent food Tu Parrilla also can take pride in having a great/attentive staff and clean bathrooms. This is something you don't take for granted when south of the border, friends.

The problem with a gringo getting a burger in TJ is I am spoiled with what we have in the US. The burger was fine but the meat was a bit rubbery from what I am used to it.

It reminds me of some of the big food halls in Los Angeles (Grand Central Market, Haven City, etc.) packed with delicious food and beverage options. Just a quick Uber ride from the border and you can be munching on fresh ceviche and savoring an ice cold glass of house-made sangria. That's exactly what we ordered! I appreciated the option for indoor or outdoor seating. Since it was an extremely hot and humid day, we opted to sit inside, where the fans were a lifesaver. We ordered drinks at the bar inside and then picked up food from one of the several vendors outside. The staff was welcoming and checked on us several times, even offering our group a large table upstairs, which was a considerate touch. From coffee to pastries, sweets, snacks, wine, beer, seafood, pizza, and everything in between, Telefónica is a great way to start or end your day in TJ. Highly recommend checking it out if you're in town!

This place is amazing. Disregard any bad reviews that you may see…read more the truth is they have so many different types of food here, the biggest problem is deciding which one you want to eat. My advice, take a cheap UBER instead of driving as parking is not fast. When you arrive take a walk though quickly to get a lay of the land and see what the options are. Maybe grab a michelada on the way in since the bar is right there. I'd pick one or 2 or 3 places to try as long as what you order fits together. the last thing you'd want to eat would be a taco and a hot dog. BE MINDFUL: Realize you are in Mexico. This place wasn't really made for tourists, it's more of a local spot and it's pretty safe. That being said they don't usually care too much about dealing with complaints. Take breath a little bit Karen and enjoy the experience. The tables are open seating, so maybe while you grab food, send your friend to find a table. they also had a cat there that was so chill and wanted to be pet.
