La terraza del restaurant, que fusiona el estar en el Valle de Guadalupe
Claudio C.

Chef Humberto Aviles brings the best ideas of what Baja California cuisine should be on your plate. You can order from the menu or get a 6 course meal. The chicken is really good and do not be afraid to try the catch of the day. The wines from Hacienda Lomita are super good.

Great venue

Located on La Lomita vineyard -- but apart from the tasting room -- Traslomita is a stunning location. Like most places in the valley, it's better to dine with some daylight. Every single dish was solid with a beautiful presentation. If this is modern Baja cuisine, it will soon replace French and Italian for Romantic and/or apology dinners. Actually, the food is best enjoyed with a small group, ordering multiple dishes to share. Food: The highlights for us were the lamb taquitos and mole sauce; raw prawns with black sauce (aguachile); the octopus had such a nice BBQ flavor; and the babyback ribs with fresh roasted pineapple sauce, just so light and summery. Wine: La Lomita has great wines. We had done the wine tasting first so we would know what to order with lunch. 2 of 3 people preferred the Pagano red while 1 of 3 preferred the Sacro red. Their Grenache rose is also really well done. Overall, one of the top restaurants in the valley.

Ensenada. The tide dragged our vessel toward the coast as if compelled by ancient…read morepact--barnacle-bound and whisper-wrapped. My fellowship, a cluster of mere mortals with taste far keener than foresight, insisted we seek a place foretold in gustatory prophecy: La Cocedora de Langosta. I assented, though the sea had begun to speak again. A cruel trick of salt and memory. We arrived. The lobster was not served--it presented itself. Shell split like prophecy fulfilled, meat steaming with tales older than Atlantis. The ceviche? Lime and fire in perfect alchemy. It hissed in my mouth like the last words of a betrayed siren. A whole fish, fried until its soul ascended, left bones so clean they could be used in ritual. Angels wept; I salted accordingly. The risotto arrived next, not on a plate but in a chalice. Each bite stirred marrow and memory, comfort and command. My sea legs stood straighter. My resolve thickened. Libations flowed--freely, fervently, faultlessly. The chalice refilled itself (or perhaps the staff were trained in illusion and replenishment). Laughter, clinking glass, and something close to joy dared to rise. Staff were keen-eyed adepts, operating with the grace of trained familiars. The atmosphere carried hints of volcanic enchantment and citrus optimism. Barry the Brave Muffin Baker--my misguided nemesis-ally--might have found peace here. Or at least, a decent aioli. Verdict: A rare convergence of flesh, flavor, and fate. Five stars scorched upon the firmament by my hand. I may never return. But that's only because the enchantment forbade it.

I came here for only one thing, lobster!…read more It did not disappoint although the price tag is heavy for the lobster, but the lobster was absolutely delicious. I think what I really liked about this place is that they accommodated my friend with his vegetarian needs. The vegetarian pasta dish that they generated looked very appetizing. This place is on the north side of the black fish market so there is less foot traffic.

We decided to come back for dinner and we were happy we did. The service was excellent. One of the recommendations was a beef cut taken from the calf of a cow. When the waiter pointed to his calf, I almost lost it. my buddy, braver than me, ordered it and said it was delicious!!! I had the rib eye and potato salad. It is hard to get a great steak in mexico but this wasn't too bad. The cut of meat was good and had good flavor. The potato salad was fantastic. Best part of dinner. This place is a little off the beaten path but worth the walk. The ambiance was nice too. Overall, service was outstanding, food was very good and prices were ok. Definitely worth a visit.

I enjoyed the appetizers especially the fried octopus w/ avocado. Also, the michelada was really good. I had the grilled octopus and it came with a side of rice and avocado. I was not too crazy about the rice. They put bbq on the octopus it was a weird combo but it was still good. I recommend this place when it's crowded. Don't go when it's completely empty, the vibe wasn't it, but the food was fresh.

Servicee and food quality are consistently excellent…read more This time I brough my family of 5 and we ordered the House Ceviche and a Mango Ceviche, shrimp tacos and guacamole. All amazing and everyone loved it! Our server was the same from before on the outside patio - he is so efficient! Always around to help and see if we need anything. We also ordered the mezcalitas and a sangria (the sangria never arrived so our server took it off of the receipt quickly). The patio is so great, bigger than the inside eating area. Lots of tables and shade. The food is delicious here, everything we have tried has been premier. The seafood is so fresh and they give awesome portions. Thanks for another great time!

I liked that they have colorful flags outdoors, which lent to the open and casual feel of this restaurant while also incorporating the Mexican culture. The waiter spoke English and was able to explain the menu. For drinks, I chose the Berry Sangria. This came in a huge glass! Loved the layering of this drink. I also ordered the Tamarind Margarita, which was darker than anticipated. Definitely had a tamarind forward flavor. I also had the oysters , which was nice and meaty but it wasn't as cold as I would like. I also tried the Ceviche De La Casa which had tuna, clams, octopus and tuna. This came accompanied with a bag of tostadas and four types of sauces. I loved the fact that you can adjust the flavoring of your ceviches with the available salsas including bottled ones that are brought to the table! I've never had this type of ceviche before and I was pleasantly surprised with different types of seafood that tasted fresh and vibrant. Definitely a great place to visit that wasn't overly crowded. I'd definitely visit again!

We came here on the recommendation of our Bed and Breakfast hosts. As we were in the Valle over 4th…read moreof July weekend, many of the restaurants in the area were fully booked for dinner. Luckily, we were able to secure a table at Quercus. The waiter was prompt and gave us excellent recommendations for dinner. The chef was also quick to come and ensure that any questions we had about the menu were answered. The bread was served fresh with salsa - a combination I have not had before. Both the green and red salsa were not too spicy and to my surprise, went well with the toasted bread. For our main courses: 1. Grilled Octopus - 5 star presentation! Well seasoned and not chewy - which is something many other restaurants get wrong. The octopus still had a bite, but was still tender enough. It went well with the pickled onions and the guacamole that was served with the dish. 2. Ribeye - Again, excellent presentation befitting of fine dining. This was a huge portion, but well seasoned and not dry. We opted for the 500g (larger) size upon recommendation of our waiter, but probably could have gone for the smaller size. We could not finish it; perhaps if we had 3 people dining. Our meal was paired with an excellent white wine blend from one of the local wineries upon recommendation of our waiter. Highly recommended if you are in the area looking for a restaurant to have dinner at. If I were to describe this place: mediterranean food with a Mexican flare.

This was a pleasant surprise!…read more Came in with a large group and I cannot tell you how amazing everything was from the presentation to the flavor! I have attached photos of most of the deliciousness! The cheese plate, the tomato soup, and the pork shank were my favorites. I did personally order the grilled octopus, it wasn't cleaned super properly and a lot of bits of it were over the top chewy but did have potential to be great! Also, with being sick I had ordered some hot tea and all I received was hot water with a sprig of mint lol. But all in all this place was amazing!

Ahead of our brief time in Ensanada, we made it point to create an itinerary that let us explore…read morephysically, but also through food and drink, so we made sure a local coffee shop and Birrieria we're on the list, and I am so glad that birrieria turned out to be this spot in Zona Centro of Ensanada! Authentic, in every sense of the word, is how to describe Birrieria La Guadalajara. From the food, drinks, service, atmosphere and overall experience from entry to exit. Even though we were sweating the whole time, some from the sauces and some from the heat, we absolutely loved it! Before you even get to ordering, they bring out an egg assortment of toppings including limes, radishes, onions, cilantro and a trio of dips along with fresh tortilla chips. Each table has a standing bowl of red sauce that is authentic and spicy! But it is perfection on any taco along with the other toppings. So, just do it! The menu is straightforward and features a variety of birria including the classic beef, pork, lamb, cabeza, goat and tongue. If birria isn't your thing, they also have steak in a few varieties. Once you decide on protein, you then choose how it's served. Regular tacos, Quesotaco, or as a plate. With these you get to choose from flour or corn tortillas. Each plate and/or taco comes with refried beans and guacamole. Most of us decided on the sampler method, getting a variety of meats and birria. I personally went with the beef, lamb and pork quesotacos all served in fresh flour tortillas. The tacos were phenomenal! I had been on vacation for close to 8 days by the time we ate here and these tacos were the best bite of my trip! Overall, an absolute must try when in Ensanada!

Everything! I didn't even get a picture of my food because I was starving! Definitely coming back…read morewhen I visit again!!!
