    As far as Mexican food goes it's mediocre. We got the carnitas which was average, Rice tasted old, tortillas were avg. Michelada was great. Tips: They don't take credit cards and they charge 10p to use their bathroom.

    Great spot in La Mision. Casual, great food, quick service and great prices. Definitely worth another trip.

    Tacos, carnitas and chilaquiles were fantastic. My kids loves their queso birrias. Café con canela was delicious

    This road side diner is more valuable with its good than its looks, but the service is impeccable and smiley. Great first night in Mexico!

    Tasty tacos, and refreshing cocktails served in a small roadside spot. Happy to find this local gem in our quest for tacos.

On the…read moredrive down to La Misión I saw the sign for this place & thought it was an actual halfway house, but turns out its name is a reference to the fact it's located halfway bet'n Rosarito & Ensenada. First things first: ignore the menu, just ask Chef Johnny what he's got & let him do his thing. A lot of times they don't have what's on the menu so you're kind of wasting your time by choosing. We had had ribeye with a red wine demi-glace that was quite good, and fish "mojo de ajo" (with butter & garlic) that was better. Each came with a small baked potato (just the right size) and some veggies that were OK. Dinner included a tortilla soup that I was told was OK and a Caesar salad with very fresh baby Romaine and an eggy dressing. The made-to order guac was OK, but I think they put mayo in it so the avo taste got kind of lost. The chips were tasty (freshly-made) but the "salsa" was a ton of tomatoes with a few onions, not really notable. Chef Johnny once cooked for the President of Mexico; these days he lives in a trailer next to the restaurant with his wife and cooks mostly what he wants. He came out to our table & I had a great conversation with him; he's very passionate about being happy and doing what he wants and it seems to be working for him. The dude can sing, too; he's got a terrific voice & if you ask him he might croon you a tune or two. He's certainly a character and a good guy. There's a full bar and first thing you notice is they allow smoking, unlike in the States. The room is nice but nothing spectacular, and the service is attentive and friendly. Worth a visit if you're in the area.

    I had hesitated to go in as it looked deserted. The food was wonderfully simple and fresh and the…read moreback deck is great
