As soon as you walk into the restaurant you are met with the smoky aroma of toasted corn, simmering chilies, and roasted vegetables. I ordered The Rancheros! A perfect blend of salsa ranchera, beef chorizo, and a scrambled egg. The chorizo had a kick of spiciness! My daughter ordered the grand daddy of chilaquiles- De Mercado! A rich, savory comfort dish simmered in tangy tomatillo sauce, topped with tender, slow-cooked shredded pork. Both dishes were packed with flavor! To drink, I recommend ordering La Verde- a traditional Mexican aqua fresca infused with cucumber, lime and chia seeds! This drink was fire!!! My daughter ordered the Mexican Iced Latte- which was a bold, and refreshing coffee drink that balanced rich chocolate with warm spices! Overall, service was impeccable! The ambiance was colorful and vibrant! Love the décor! My only gripe would be to suggest turning on the air conditioner. At times, the dining hall became excessively hot and somewhat uncomfortable.

This review is especially for Yajaira. From the moment we arrived, she embodied everything an…read moreoutstanding server should be. She asked if it was our first time, offered thoughtful recommendations for those of us new to the menu, and maintained a warm, genuine smile throughout our visit. Her charisma and enthusiasm truly elevated our experience. Yajaira checked in consistently, making sure we had everything we needed and asking how she could make our experience even better. Her attentiveness did not go unnoticed. Kudos to management for bringing such a talented and dedicated individual onto the team. As always, the food here is exceptional. We tried two types of chilaquiles--La Bomba and Cremosos--and both were absolutely exquisite. The aguas frescas were refreshing, and the addition of tajín on the rim was a beautiful touch that celebrates authentic Mexican culinary traditions. My companion ordered the pancakes, and the café de olla was simply outstanding. It was midday, and the San Diego sunshine made the experience even more enjoyable as we sat outside in their charming garden patio. We will be back

I ended up getting a Carnitas Classic Taco and a Papas Deep Fried Taco. I was shocked when it came out because they had a soo much avocado and cheese on them! It was nice that they didn't skimp on the ingredients, but it was actually too much and I had to remove some of it so I could taste the other ingredients. Both tacos were excellent!! The carnitas were some of the best carnitas I've ever had and I adored the way they crisped them. I don't normally go for anything fried, but the potato taco was soo worth it! I wish I was hungrier so I could've ordered more things to try. Price is really good for the size and quality you get. 100% would come back.

Service was fantastic; very friendly, attentive, and they happily spoke English when my Spanish started failing me Bathrooms were clean too, which is always a huge plus when you're eating across the border. If you're in TJ, this place is a must. Can't recommend it enough!

I visited this niche restaurant only after it moved to the new location (adjacent to previous…read morelocation) in the Plaza Alameda town center type complex. I didn't have high expectations since I hadn't tasted this Mexican-Caribbean type cousine before. I left promising to return. The restaurant is on a second story area of the Plaza and shares the space with a mexican style seafood joint and a sushi place. They have elevators and it is wheelchair accessible. The decor is impressive and they even have a small shop that sells Yucatan region's clothes and souvenirs. A very talented older gentleman in a panama style hat was crooning old and new romantic songs and playing beautifully his guitar. We were greeted with an open door and allowed to chose our table. Drinks came quick and we set at deciphering the menu. Their Maya language menu items are a challenge for anyone to translate but a helpul description of the dish is printed in Spanish below. Like, I learned that poc is pork and featured in many dishes but I went for a fish entree recommended by the waiter instead. We also shared a grilled chicken salad. Our very good waiter suggested a grilled pargo fish fillet. It came wrapped in a banana leaf and was sauteed in a tomato onion salsa with shrimp and scallops. It was accompanied by fluffy spanish rice and a roasted tomatoes green salad. The chicken salad had thin slices of breast meat. tender and flavorful. The salad dressing was delicious too. Overall a great evening out and only cost about 20 per person including drinks and tip.

When entering the restaurant, you are kindly greeted and notice a really unique, rustic decor. The music is really soothing, the type you are able to have a nice conversation without letting it disturbing you. The menu has a variety of plates which are unique to the southern region of Mexico, more specifically Yucatan. I personally tried the "empanadas de bola de queso" and "cochinita pibil". I finished it off with an anise liqueur called Xtabentún which was surprisingly smooth. Needless to say, everything was delicious.. If you are looking for traditional Mexican plates that are different from the typical tacos, burritos, tortas, etc... then this place is perfect for the occasion.

The fried shrimp taco with chipotle mayo and avocado was crunchy and well-executed, while the carne asada with guac and pico kept things classic and satisfying. The raw shrimp aguachile served on thin jícama slices with a smoky black salsa was unforgettable--bright, spicy, and full of bold flavor. The jícama added a clean crunch that tied it all together. The shrimp salad was fresh and colorful with strawberries, candied nuts, and goat cheese, and the salsa verde cream pasta with shrimp was rich and tasty, without feeling heavy. Service was excellent--attentive, friendly, and on point the whole time. The bar is also worth a mention: wide drink menu, good cocktails, and a great vibe to hang around after the meal. Overall, Cabanna hits that sweet spot of flavor, variety, and energy. I'll be back.

Today I was in the Otay side and didn't want to drive to Tijuana crossing so I looked up a taco place and "El Poblano". First, traffic outside was crazy and if you pull into the parking lot, you will have to back into that crazy traffic. Not great. I wanted one "tripas" taco and one "adobada" taco and had to get into two lines and pay twice. That was odd. Thank goodness there was no line when I got there but after I sat down, there was a decently long line. The meat wasn't bad but the guacamole sauce was not seasoned. Also, they had some radishes but they were not sliced. No carrots and jalapenos in vinegar but they did have some grilled jalapenos. I like the cucumbers and sliced radishes that so many of the good places will offer YET these were expensive. At 45 pesos [$2.65] for the adobada and 70 pesos [$4.38] for the tripas. I was a little surprised because I can get shrimp tacos for that price at another taco place not far from here.
