La Bufadora, Mexico…read more After visiting the Blow Hole, this was our stop for the free lunch included in the excursion: two tacos of your choice and a drink. The seating area is outdoors with umbrella-covered tables, and everything is first‑come, first‑served. The menu is displayed clearly, so ordering is easy. I chose two carne asada tacos and a soda. The tacos were okay, but not filling at all ~ I was still hungry after finishing them. Ordering additional tacos costs $4 each, which honestly shocked me. For the portion size, the price is too pricey, so I didn't order more. It really comes across as a tourist trap: a "free meal" that's part of the excursion, but not worth it if you're expecting something satisfying. It would be much better if they included beans or offered more tacos to make the meal enough to make you full.

I was on a cruise with some family members and usually find a place to eat in Ensenada. On this occasion we brought someone that had never been here and we really enjoyed our trip; none better than coming to Blanquita. We ordered two orders of the famous clams. Each order is two clams [for those who have had too many cervezas, that's a total of 4 large clams for the four of us]. Each order [2 clams] is $180 pesos or about $10 dollars. These are some of the best clams I have ever had, barring maybe New Orleans. Even my daughter, who was reluctant, loved it. We also had some fish and shrimp tacos and everyone was happy with everything we tasted. The tacos were $50 pesos which is a little over $2.50 in dollars. NOT cheap but considering the location, very reasonable. There are a bunch of men out there trying to get you seated. Once they seat you, you are theirs. In other words, they are going to serve you and they get commissions and tips. Our guy was good, Tony Montana [no cocaine jokes please] and he was pretty good. I will say, I understand the culture here and they are selling, selling, selling. The restaurant did charge us 80 pesos or more than $4 dollars for a soda, which is a crime but airports and other places do it all the time. And the views, well that has to account for something. But the beers were the same price so that was a great deal. Today's life lesson: More beer less soda!!! I wish I would have taken a picture of the menu prices.

We were already seated and hiked up to the top to sit so we decided to just let it go. Ordered the fish tacos, one order of fries, three kid's quesadillas and 5 sodas. In US dollars that equated to $62!!! Wild! I don't even. Pay that much in Los Angeles. The fish was so bland I had to add the guac and lime all over the taco to make it taste like something. I will not be returning.

The order of tacos Gobernador were perfect, lots of shrimp and melted cheese. The shrimp al ajillo with octopus was full of flavor, minced garlic, butter and the kick of chile de arbol.The cocktail "Coctel"campechana was very well portioned with shrimp, octopus and topped with a fresh oyster on a shell. The entrees all came along with white rice, chopped jalapeno, refried beans and a crispy salad. They have a big variety of alcoholic drinks ie: Pina colada, Michelada "Cubana", any beer , it has a splash of Worcestershire sauce, salt, lemon juice, salsa maggi! Definitely would recommend this Restaurant , very Authentic Mexican Seafood! Reviewing from a true Mexican point of view! They also have very clean Bathrooms well stocked with hand soap, toilet paper. They only accept cash.

We didn't eat here. But it was I believe $50 in total for my son & I from what I can remember to pet animals. I wanted to play w/ one of the other animals but the guy said it would be too playful & big for my 2yr old toddler. So we went w/ the smallest cub. They made us sanitize our hands prior to going in. You're not able to take pics while outside of the cage. But once you go in you had a few minutes to record & take pics w/ the animals. The cub was playful w/ my son. Even bit him on the hand in one of my videos. Although I don't believe it was that hard since my son didn't cry. He just noticeably pulled his hand back. That didn't stop him from playing w/ them tho. Service from the workers were 3/5 stars. They seemed over it & didn't really care for it. When the cub bit my son, the guy just didn't even acknowledge it & pretty much played it off. He kept repeating himself which got a little annoying. Not to mention they kept pressuring us for tips. Well now that's off my bucket list, I don't think I'd be doing this again. Lol.

AMAZING TEMPURA TACOS AND BACON STUFFED SHRIMP! AMAZING VIEW, WITH THE MIST FRIENDLY WAITERS!…read more Okay, the staff upstairs is everything. When we came in through the bottom where the little petting zoo thing is, they were very rude. I get it, they want people to pay 50/60 USD to play with the baby tigers. We passed it, and went upstairs where the real hospitality was at! They didn't disappoint! Food: 5/5! One of the best meals we had in Mexico! The chili was amazing, the tacos were to die for, and the shrimp with Marlin was omg FIRE!!!!! I've never tasted something like that in all my life. The food is just amazing in Mexico! Nothing like it for sure! Service:5/5 They treated Us like family, and that is so appreciated! They were soooo nice, fast, didn't feel rushed, and truly went out of their way to make sure we were happy! Lord, can intake this whole restaurant home with me?! Price: 5/5 The pricing was totally fair, and even cheap for seafood. We spent under 30.00 for something that easily would cost that much for one plate at home. Their lemonade was like a fish bowl, and totally taste different from what we are used to. The food, service, and view was worth every cent! All in all, I cannot wait to come back. I will definitely be stopping here again!

Authentic, in every sense of the word, is how to describe Birrieria La Guadalajara. From the food, drinks, service, atmosphere and overall experience from entry to exit. Even though we were sweating the whole time, some from the sauces and some from the heat, we absolutely loved it! Before you even get to ordering, they bring out an egg assortment of toppings including limes, radishes, onions, cilantro and a trio of dips along with fresh tortilla chips. Each table has a standing bowl of red sauce that is authentic and spicy! But it is perfection on any taco along with the other toppings. So, just do it! The menu is straightforward and features a variety of birria including the classic beef, pork, lamb, cabeza, goat and tongue. If birria isn't your thing, they also have steak in a few varieties. Once you decide on protein, you then choose how it's served. Regular tacos, Quesotaco, or as a plate. With these you get to choose from flour or corn tortillas. Each plate and/or taco comes with refried beans and guacamole. Most of us decided on the sampler method, getting a variety of meats and birria. I personally went with the beef, lamb and pork quesotacos all served in fresh flour tortillas. The tacos were phenomenal! I had been on vacation for close to 8 days by the time we ate here and these tacos were the best bite of my trip! Overall, an absolute must try when in Ensanada!
