The ambiance is Fantastic! Food is Wonderful! Service is Impeccable! This Restaurant Serves Authentic Spanish Food In TJ. Everything was very Fresh and Tasty! We had the mussels and a shrimp appetizer to start. For main course we both went with the fish, Yummmmmy. The bread and dipping sauce was very good too. Prices totally reasonable... 2 apps, 4 beers, 2 main dishes about $80 before tip. The menu is in Spanish but the waiters speak a little English. CONCLUSION: I Recommend this restaurant! PRO TIP: Download the Google Translate App. It allows you to view the menu and it translates it as you watch in on your phone. BRILLINT! read more

Excellent Spanish cuisine. Excellent tapas. Great wine list (although they are no longer offering LA Cetto). Great Spaniard ambiance although they had US Christmas jazz music on the background for some time. The tapas were amazing! We did not get to the paella but they looked great. The desserts were to die for! See the photo of the cheesecake! read more

This restaurant combines Mexican and Spanish dishes. Very nice interior (see picture). First time here, got breakfast, selected the Tortilla Española con chorizo (picture here). Looks small when served but is quite fulfilling; not as much chorizo as I expected but still very tasty, if missing a bit of salt that you can always add. The fruit juices, highly recommended. I had the "anti cholesterol " one. I recommend you arrive early as it is a popular restaurant. Will come back! read more

Lorca - Inside the restaurant. Very nice! - Mediterranean Near Me - Tijuana, BCN

Our birthday gathering was incredible; the tapas hot and cold were delightful with plenty of fresh baked bread and sauces to accompany them. However; I placed an order to go, the Pollo Lorca, when I got home the package was less than appetizing; the chicken was completely dry and plain, no sauce. Included was a side salad. The price for this meal was $250 pesos not worth the styrofoam box it came in. A huge disappointment. A bit surprised at the lack of attention to this plate. read more

Lorca - Pollo Lorca - Mediterranean Near Me - Tijuana, BCN

If you order the Pállela be prepared to wait for 30 minutes or longer, but it is pretty good so I guess it's worth the wait. The inside is a small place and very calming. The waiters are nice and very prompt. The Queso Fundido with the Chorizo is definitely good. read more

My visit was in a US celebrated Mother's Day 2017. This is a Spanish restaurant, small, cozy, friendly & fairly priced. Oh and they had free valet parking. I tried the paella and I liked it. I had flan for dessert and it was good as well. The coffee though, I'm a coffee lover and what I was drinking that day was light and not bold enough. I brought it up hoping for a brand new batch and management came to my table explaining how they carry good coffee, that it was exclusive from a well know Mexican region. I didn't doubt that at all but I know anyone brewing can easily ruin a good coffee with too much water or very little coffee. I still don't know what happened but sure did wish an essential morning beverage would have never been an issue. However, I do appreciate management for coming over to try and resolve a customer's concern. They have other beverage options too, especially wine, lots of wine. I recommend Lorca based on my overall experience. read more

Great food but wine selection not great. Service is okay. Only recommendation is to have menu in English instead only in Spanish

I had come here many times in the distant past but not in the last three years. We ordered a number of tapas. The taste was a little off on each one. The morcilla especially tasted OLD. It surprised me. Frankly this was inexcusable. Overnight I did get sick. Violently sick. As did my companion. I eat out six nights a week, and I eat a fair amount of chile and other food items that cause some customers discomfort, so I really do not think this is the case of me being a customer with an eggshell stomach prone to illness. I get sick once in maybe ten years. I have such good memories of this place, in a month or so I will try Lorca again. Perhaps I just caught Lorca on a really bad day. I would hate to see Lorca fold. We already lost the venerable and authentically Basque Chiki-Hai where I would go very often with my uncle Guillermo who worked for decades across the street at the Jai Alai. Let's see how it goes next time when I feel up to it. As one can see, I rarely give a one-star review. I would rather not leave a review. But perhaps this review is a good way to send the restaurant owner a message that can be acted upon. read more

I was getting FB ads for breakfast at this established restaurant that I knew was famous for its cuisine of Spain and occasional tablao. I visited early and handed my keys to their ballet parking attendant (who later missplaced my keys) and was seated at the only table available at this busy restaurant. Staff was friendly and attentive bringing our drinks promptly plus a basket of delicious bread and a small plate of fruit with yogurt. I ordered their steak and egg breakfast and my companion had the omelette with poblano and cheese covered in their house chipotle cream sauce (that same cream was also poured on my steak and eggs.) Rich flavors surprised us both with the seasoned potatoes and refried beans adding a good compliment to the other delicious flavors. Would definitely come back, but I would be weary of their valets...I found the key on the outside windshield of my car. read more

Well... to pricey for what it is, really. The food is not the best Spanish Cuisine I've tasted. I've had much better food and service in similar restaurants in Tijuana that are priced about 20-30% lower. I had an empanada with serrano ham and goat cheese for an appetizer, and a Paella with Chistorra as an entrée and a sangria to wash it all down. I wouldn't recommend any of those choices. Not because they taste bad, but because it's not something that you'll be looking to order again. read more

Lorca - Mediterranean Near Me - Tijuana, BCN

Usually I'm not a huge fan of Spaniard food, but this one is actually pretty good! There are a bunch of places that specialize in this type of food but Restaurante Lorca is one of the best. The restaurant itself is really cool, it has a hacienda-ish feel to it. I confess that I've only been here 3 or 4 times and every time I have the paella, it's so darn good! Especially if you pair it with sangria. It's a nice place to come with your family or for some work reunion / office party. If you are a wine lover, then you'll be good in this place, they have some of the best selections of the Valle de Guadalupe in here. They also have breakfast options! Just in case you were in the neighborhood searching for someearly bites. Special note, it's a great spot for vegetarians. read more

Anyone who follows me knows that I do not like to write bad reviews ! I only do it if they really deserve it! VERY disappointed ! Walk in to this Restaurant expecting the best. Bad service, slow & cold. 20 minutes just to get a menu !!! Not sure how they got good reviews in TripAdvisor!! I do not recommend this place at all read more

Beautiful restaurant, it's gives a Spanish vibe, appetizers need to be considered, all dishes take around 30-35 min.

We were so excited to come here and try some Spanish food on the last night of our trip in december. The food was subpar, and cold. The server was awful, rude, texting, not coming to our table, and only came to take order, drop food, and drop check. I won't be back. read more

My friends and I decided to head down to Tijuana and try this place. Especially because one of them is from Spain and wanted to have some of her home cuisine. From the moment we entered the restaurant we were greeted by the owner. He was so friendly and welcome us to the restaurant. We decided to "keep it light" and ordered tapas. We had gambas al ajillo (shrimp w/garlic); croquetas de camarón (shrimp croquettes); calamares a la romana (calamari a la romana); queso fundido con chiles poblanos (melted cheese with poblano peppers); and corazones de alcachofas salteados con jamón serrano (artichoke hearts sauteed with serrano ham). Everything was so flavorful and delicious. My spanish friend said this was very much like home in taste. The shrimp with garlic was my absolute favorite. It was just perfectly done. This is a must. We decided that we will be coming back next time for dinner and have paella. read more
