We had to ask them to turn on the music because it was super silente and awkward. The best dish was the caprese flor de calabaza. The first appetizer was good too but the rib eye was cooked rare and looked purple colored and tasted kind of fake, would not recommend. The pasta was good but the tagliatelle was under cooked because the pasta was hard. The cheese wheel pasta was good too. Other than that the tiramisu was really good, as well as as the crème brûlée!

The empanadas de borrego were my favorite, especially with all the dips and sauces they provided. You could taste all the spices and fresh ingredients. Pizza was good too and larger than I had thought, wish I would have had time to actually eat here. The place was so cute, a more upscale establishment compared to the smaller mom and pop shops in the surrounding area. Definitely stop by and check them out.

The space is clean and well laid out, with a relaxed yet lively vibe that suits both casual dinners and special outings.

The lighting and overall setup create a welcoming environment that encourages you to take your time and enjoy the experience. Whether you're dining with friends, family, or on a date, the setting strikes a great balance between laid‑back and upscale. The food matched the atmosphere perfectly. The big T‑bone steak was impressive--generously sized, juicy, and full of flavor. The hamburger was solid, and the chile relleno was delicious and well prepared. The staff added to the positive experience, friendly and attentive without hovering, making sure everything flowed smoothly from start to finish. Great ambiance, excellent food, and good service make Valle 13 a place worth returning to.

The setting is really nice and makes for a great dining experience overall. That said, visitors should be aware that gratuity is automatically added/up charged, (if they see your not a local) which was not clearly communicated upfront. Transparency around pricing would go a long way in improving the experience. With clearer billing practices, this place could easily be a higher-rated destination.

Those two dishes were so good. It made us wonder how much better the rest of the meal was. Well the rest of the meal was excellent. Between the 5 of us we had: Eggplant dish. It was perfect for the person who had it as the slices of eggplant were fried without being coated in flour (she has Celiac's) The fish of the day. It was perfectly cooked The spaghetti with tomatoes and shrimp. The taste was even better than the beautiful presentation I forget what the other two had, but I can tell you that they both stopped just short of licking their plates. We were too full for dessert. The waitress then brought out some home made "cellos". The was a choice of mandarincello, pistachiocello and chocolatecello 4 of us did the mandarin and the 5th did the chocolate. The Mandarin reminded me of something I had in Portugal a few years ago. I got to taste the chocolate one and it tasted like a sinfully decadent chocolate ice cream. The service is EXCELLENT, and the staff is bilingual.

I've been coming to this restaurant for years, easily idk more than 6 or 7 y tengo que decir que señor Toni es un chingón and knows how to assemble a masterful beastly team in the kitchen. Regarding the owner and head chef, he's a cool dude and I very much enjoy shooting the shit with him every time I visit. Essentially, the food is always good, no one can deny that. Whether it's the long standing regular menu with the classics or the seasonal specials. I truly love how it's clearly an Italian restaurant that proudly incorporates local flavors & ingredients as well as slightly fuses other types of cuisines. You can definitely taste the Mexican influence in some of the dishes like in the spaghetti con pesto di Serrano e jalapeño. I absolutely love that dish, The flavors just pop and play together so eloquently. MARCA DIABLO as mi abuelito chichi would say. Italian hand emoji unlocked with essentially every dish I've had there. The rib eye I orders on my most recent visit around early November was a true highlight, best execution of any Da Toni visit and one of the best steaks I've had in Baja. Highly recommend this place. They recently switched over to another location which makes the restaurant improve drastically, not just the design and ambiance but also adds some much needed space that the other location really lacked. salute, denaro e amore

Traslomita is the definition of fresh - we had fresh oysters, fresh ceviche, and delicious, slow cooked duck with handmade tortillas. Everything was absolutely fantastic, including the ganache wine.

Google Maps will try to take you what is technically the fastest way, but the roads are un-driveable unless you own a jeep or other all-terrain vehicle.

Our stay at Casa Frida in Valle de Guadalupe was a mixed experience. The biggest downside is the…read morelocation. It is very remote with very little nearby. You have to drive at least 5 miles just to find other restaurants or attractions, and it's about 14 miles to Ensenada if you want more options. The hotel only has one restaurant currently open, and while it was convenient, the food was overpriced for what it offered. The staff was friendly, welcoming, and helpful throughout our stay, which we appreciated. Unfortunately, the property itself felt a bit neglected. There were several maintenance issues, including a broken toilet paper holder and a broken shampoo/conditioner dispenser that wasn't replaced until the following day. The paint in the room didn't match in several areas, and overall it could use some upkeep. The pillows were very uncomfortable, and the property was extremely dusty, making it difficult to enjoy being outside, so we ended up staying indoors most of the time. We also booked a room advertised with a "valley view," but our view was mostly trees and a ditch, which was disappointing and not what we expected. On the positive side, the room itself was modern, clean, and nicely designed inside. With a few minor repairs and better maintenance, it could be an excellent place to stay. The hotel was also very quiet, which made for a peaceful atmosphere, although the room had great AC. Overall, I would rate Casa Frida 3 out of 5 stars. It has potential thanks to its friendly staff
