    Excellent service! I got the carajillo to drink and loved it. Everyone loved their food! Large portions. Would definitely come back and recommend to friends when in the area.

    This place blew my mind. I had a great time/ experience here. The service was up to par and the food was absolutely amazing. The ambiance was amazing. The patio outside is so nice. I seriously thought I was in Valle de Guadalupe. We tried out a variety of things and everything was delicious. Tortilla Soup was a 10 out of 10. The broth was so flavorful and the tortilla strips were nice and crunchy. Grilled Octopus was also a 10 out of 10. You could taste the fresh herbs and it was grilled/ charred very nicely. Enchiladas Rojas with Ribeye were also a 10/10 Good size portion of meat and the potatoes were delicious along with the sauce.

    The ambience I think is wonderful! They have a beautiful outside patio and the interior is very rustic and has beautiful wood-burning fireplaces. The waiters are very professional, kind and understand when to interrupt somebody and when not to. We're just all around good waiter etiquette. And the food is excellent. Today we had Chilaquiles's and huevos rancheros. Everything came out hot and delicious. And of course in Mexico you always get fresh squeezed, orange juice, and I had one of the best bloody Mary's I've ever had. So yes, check it out!

    T bone steak with baked potato and vegetables of the day!!

    The food was good the t bone stake was chewy and a little over cooked, the quail was amazing it was tender, the Pato al mole was delicious and cooked perfectly but the sauce was a little cold. The service was amazing the waterers were ready to get anything when I asked, they upselled the water. The ambiance was nice there was a guitarist playing famous 90s songs and the patio was a beautiful with a small water fountain in the back.

    I always loved coming here for breakfast while visiting Rosarito a handful of times throughout the year. The ambiance is always a beautiful site to see. Especially the patio area where you can take beautiful pictures with your family. The service was always excellent. Today 7/22/2024 my husband and I wanted to celebrate our anniversary there. I couldn't wait to enjoy the morning with great food. Today, I was disappointed. The host wasn't too friendly there is alot of young kids working there, and I felt like they didn't want to put in the effort to greet us and ask if we needed anything to drink. It took a while to get coffee. Mind u we had a high chair she didn't remove from our table. The waiter was very slow it took him about 10 min to get our drinks. I tried to give him the benefit of the doubt, but the restaurant wasn't busy. I thought I would have a mimosa, so I ordered one and it had so much orange juice...mind you it took him 15 min. We finally decided to place our orders maybe the food would make up for it...again disappointed...The presentation nice but the food wasn't great like all the other times we have come. I ordered enchilada Suizas they had a strange taste.. beans were salty or maybe because of the cheese I didn't ask to have on my beans. My husband had Chilaquiles, which he thought they were ok. We should have walked out after the coffee situation..the whole vibe was off.. we spoke to the waiter, but I felt like he didn't care. We asked to speak to the manager and he came heard us out.. but I felt again like it didn't matter.. It upsets me that we bring tons of people and rave about the restaurant, which now is a distant memory.. I dont think we're coming back. I'm sure we can find another hidden with great customer service!

    The ambience was so warm and welcoming. Literally the best customer service we've had since we've been out here and the food was just as great, everything came out in a timely manner and tasted amazing. I went with the red enchiladas and tried the guacamole and fried cheese with chorizo appetizers, sooooo good! Thank you for being a business that goes above and beyond.

    Taco Delfin

    Great ambiance. Amazing service! Delectable food! Their tortilla soup is to die for! My favorite taco is the Taco Delfin: blue corn tortilla covered in melted cheese, grilled steak and shrimp, guacamole, micro greens, grape tomatoes, with jalapeño chutney on the side Whatever you order, you won't be disappointed!

    The place is cute. Nice salon atmosphere. The food is ok... Two friends referred this place so we were excited. My friend ordered the enchilada. It was ok. My other friend and I had the fillet mignon. Steak was good but the rice and beans were just fine. Some of the chips were stale and guacamole lacked salt. Service was friendly. If you go for the atmosphere you will be pleased. If you go for the food you won't be super excited. It's not bad food but it is not outstanding and that is what we were hoping for.

    Exceptional food and service make this find a regular on our rotation. First visit was for breakfast which was great. Try the coffee with cinnamon for a new experience.

    Chamorro Pibil

    the best customer service. will come again. the flour tortillas are amazing. The Chamorro Pibil was not the best but my aunt ordered camarones a la diabla that where amazing!!!

    Restaurante El Nido - Machaca with eggs and nopales,   Potatoes and refried beans with chorizo

    About twice a year we go to Mexico and we always make sure to stop by El Nido because it is just…read morethe best! Friendly stuff, great food and a beautiful atmosphere. I always get the mushrooms with a side of tortillas and just make my own little mushroom burrito. Do it as an appetizer, you won't regret it. My only tip is that if you are in a large group to get separate bills and request it from the beginning. Every time we're in a group, it never comes out right with the split - everyone is charged more.

    I've been coming to El Nido since I was 5 years old, that is over 30 years ago so writing this…read morehonestly hurts. We went for Mother's Day and it was beyond the worst restaurant experience I've ever had. Our server Blanco was fine and did his best, but the food was absolutely terrible. Dry meat, dry and flavorless chicken, thick chewy machaca, and a salmon that was supposed to be grilled came out drowning in grease. Even the dishes looked dirty. We spoke to the manager Oscar, hoping something would be done, but he was completely dismissive. Just the typical apology and nothing else. This place used to mean something to our family and we even had a close relationship with the owners, but ever since the previous manager passed away, this restaurant has turned into a tourist trap. The quality has completely fallen apart while the prices keep going up. Extremely expensive for mediocre food and poor management. There are so many better places to spend your money now. Sadly, El Nido is not what it used to be, and after this experience we will never return or recommend it to friends or visitors again
