My husband and I love to dine out! And this restaurant is definitely one of our favorite places to visit when dining in Tijuana. The resturant is known for their cesar salad, hence the restaurant name. . .and no wonder! The salad is really good and always fresh. We have tried several entrees from the menu, and they have never failed. The drinks are really good! You must try a Tamarindo Martini. . .the tangines of the fruit makes the sweet martini really yummy! Or Mezcalito of your choice (tamarindo, cucumber, mango etc. .) read more

Do you love Caesar salad? Well then you must visit Resaurante Caesar's because it is where this delicious salad was invented! I had the pleasure of visiting Tijuiana with an amazing tour guide, who had us pop in here for salad and cocktails. The restaurant itself is very old school - well dressed bartenders, dark wood bar, and an overall classic look. Because of the vibe, I opted to order a dirty martini. It came with a side car, I was already loving everything about this vibe. Who doesn't love a martini with a side of martini? Then, we ordered what we came for - the salad. It's prepared tableside on a cart of greatness. The dressing is made to order, so you can see every ingredient go into it (take notes people). Then, it's tossed onto beautifully fresh romaine to create the most perfect version of Caesar salad I have ever enjoyed. My major note - you must get the dressing with anchovies. Do not skimp on the ingredient that gives the salad the perfect bit of saltiness. Put this on your must-do list if in TJ. read more

I only came for the ceasar salad. And it's amazing! It quite possibly might be the best ceasar salad I've ever had. And it's so simple. I'm not sure if I've ever had a ceasar with anchovies and the anchovie sauce they mix in this, adds so much flavor and depth. It's a really big part of the key to this salad. After this, I decided that from now on, whenever I go to TJs, I'm coming here. read more

Yelp Mexico Badge + Taco Crawl = ¡El mejor y delicioso día de todos! Lunch time came around and it was hella hot and humid, especially, walking up and down along Avenida Revolución. I was down to eating more tacos with Yelp Buddies Isobel L. and Ran C., but I wanted somewhere indoors with AC, lol! Luckily, we decided to head back to Restaurante Caesar's. Historical Foodie Fact: Only July 4, 1924, Chef/Hotel Owner, Caesar Cardini created the Caesar Salad, which later became a favorite salad amongst Hollywood and other celebrities, especially, when he moved his restaurant into the same location as his Hotel Caesar. Makes sense, since his restaurant décor gives off that old, glamorous black and white, 1920s Hollywood vibes. 1 Peso = $18 American Currency. Drinks: 65.00 ($3.61) Virgin Pina Colada - Smooth, creamy and fruity tasty - a perfectly refreshing summer drink garnished with an orange slice and cherry on top. 25.00 ($1.39 each) Two Regular Bottled Waters (one for me and one for Isobel). I definitely miss the free, cleaned and filtered water back home, lol! Don't attempt to drink the (non-bottled) water in TJ or anywhere in Mexico, unless, you wanna encounter Montezuma's revenge! 80.00 ($4.44) Margarita (Isobel's) 90.00 ($5.00) Strawberry Martini (Ran's) 45.00 ($2.50) Unsweetened Iced Tea (Ran's) 35.00 ($1.94) Cafe Americano (Isobel's) Complimentary bread served with buttery garlic flavored tapenade spread. The bread was crispy on the outside while remaining soft and fluffy on the inside. The tapenade spread was savory with a little bit of acidity to it, but still delectable, especially, with the salty, chopped olives mixed in. 95.00 ($5.28 each) Three small Caesar Salad portions as recommended by our sweet and fantastic waiter, Pablo, who also happened to recommend Las Ahumaderas for our fourth/final taco crawl (¡muchas gracias, Pablo!). Since we were still stuffed from our earlier taco crawls, the small portions were perfect, and we ended up getting three amazing desserts later. Our Caesar salad was prepared and served tableside by Pablo. It was fun watching him prepare our salads while we worked our photo/videoing magic. At one point, Pablo tricked us into thinking that the olive oil he poured in was tequila when Ran had asked him what that clear liquid that was, lol! Such a sweet and funny guy that Pablo is! The Caesar salad was scrumptious and refreshing! The dressing was perfect without tasting too sweet or tangy. Best of all, the Romaine lettuce didn't get soggy and stayed crisp throughout. Finished off with Parmesan cheese and crostini on top, the perfect salad for a hot and summery day! 85.00 ($4.72) Cajeta (Mexican caramel) Crepes - Omg, ¡muy, muy sabrosa! The crepes themselves were so fluffy and pillowy. The cajeta sauce was thick and sweet, especially, when mixed with the sweet coffee liqueur and rum. Served on the side with a scoop of vanilla and garnished with a sliced strawberry, topped with nuts and chocolate sauce on the side, ¡Recomiendo mucho conseguir esto! 70.00 ($3.89) Vanilla Flan served with its own caramel, cajeta and a sliced strawberry, sooo good! ¡Otra deliciosa recomendación! The flan itself is super creamy and smooth. Paired with its caramel sauce and cajeta together, a simple, yet very decadent dessert! 70.00 ($3.89) Sweet Corn Cake served with cheese frosting. The sweet corn cake was good and light. However, this one was my least favorite. Dusted with powder sugar, raspberry sauce around the plate and a sliced strawberry to complete the pretty presentation. Service: Our waiter, Pablo was fantastic and friendly along with the rest of the servers. They were quick to clear away dirty plates and utensils. Our food and drinks came out in a good and timely manner. ¡El servicio fue excelente! Ambience and Décor: Nicely, ventilated and AC restaurant! Black and white floors, old and glamorous 1920s Hollywood vibes. The dining room and outside dining patio is spacious, clean and inviting. The dark, rich wood throughout the restaurant was gorgeous. The walls are adorned with various photos of Mexican/American celebrities/honored guests as well as Mexican art. The Women's Restroom is clean, spacious, nicely stocked and maintained. Overall, I'm so glad that we got to experience and taste the infamous Caesar salad. For us Yelp foodies, it was definitely a treat worth remembering! Had our day trip lasted a little longer, I wouldn't mind staying in Hotel Caesar upstairs (which is only $50 a night!). Hasta entonces, ¡muchas gracias al restaurante César, a Pablo y al personal por su maravillosa comida, bebidas, servicio y hospitalidad! (Until then, thank you so much to Restaurant Caesar, Pablo and staff for their wonderful food, drinks, service and hospitality!) read more

Went for the first time on May 7th with a group of my friends. I got the lamb rack that were cooked and flavored perfectly! I wish is came with something other then the vegetables. I also got the Caesar salad!!! Definitely get it!!!! My friends got the beef Wilmington, pasta with shrimp and lastly the ribeye steak. 3 of the 4 plates came out and were amazing. Now, the ribeye steak came out looking good but wasn't at all! So much fat and super chewy that my friend couldn't even eat parts of it. After trying a few different sections he gave up and couldn't eat it anymore. read more

THIS PLACE HAS BEEN ON MY BUCKETLIST!!! Ever since I watched Mark Wein Video on his visit here, I have been wanting to go here for the longest time ever. So worth the hype. - Restaurante Caesar's -Location : Tijuana, Mexico : Av. Revolucion 1079 Col. Zona Centro 22000 Tijuana Baja CA -Food : Ensalada Caesar's (Caesar Salad): The Original Caesar Salad. The place that invented it, the dressing was made at our table and romaine lettuce dressed in front of us with fresh garlic butter toast mini-bites. I am usually not a fan of caesar dressing, but this was an exception. I could literally eat this for days. 5/5 135 pesos Tuetanos De Res Rostizados (Roasted Beef Marrow): This was worth every single (Small but delicious) bite! With two types of salsa and salt on the side, the roasted buttery marrow a luxury that is cooked till perfection. You get four marrows, and it's a game of luck depending on the bone. 5/5 195 pesos Pan Con Ajo (Crunchy Bread with Garlic): This was perfectly crispy on the outside but the bread was still soft in the inside with garlic, oil, and parmesan cheese and some chili flakes. The chili flakes were a little bit too spicy for me, and I love spicy LOL! But still overall delicious. I took this bread and dipped it in my caesar dressing and it was so good. 4.7/5 $50 pesos Raviolis Casero Al Sugo (Ravioli): Beef and ricotta cheese stuffing with tomato and beef juice. The pasta was homemade and more on the savory side. Smaller portion, but perfectly seasoned and creamy. 4/5 $225 pesos -Service: The staff was wonderful. They were quick and professional, and our food came out pretty quick. Everyone was super sweet and there was an English Menu & English USD Conversion available. The server who dressed my salad did an amazing show at our table. -Ambiance of Location: THE HOME OF THE CAESAR SALAD! The original place that made the famous caesar salad itself is here in Tijuana. There is outdoor and indoor dining with many iconic historic moments showcased on the photos on the wall. The place felt like a museum itself, pretty fancy and clean. -Parking: We Uber here from the San Ysidro Border, but there is valet parking. -Tran Tip: Get the caesar salad, I pay for the option where they come to your table to do the show. It's so worth it. It's like a $2 USD upgrade. read more

I am a Caesar salad lover. The MOMENT I found out that Caesar was invented in Mexico and not based on some short roman, I was obsessed. Everyone believes the hype -this place will change your mind about the caesar salad. They make the dressing to your liking. You will see them crack the egg, whisk it into the dressing, add the fresh pepper, the grated cheese... and toss full romaine spears in the dressing, perfectly coated. The restaurant is absolutely beautiful. The drinks are amazing - strawberry and tequila - perfect. I am not a fan of the lamb chops but it is ok because we came for the salad. Every single time we are in San Diego we debate if we should drive over to grab some more salad - it is that good. If you can, go. It is amazing. read more

- Is there a rating for ten stars - This was an absolute exquisite experience - The waiters speak English - by now you know this is the birth place of Caesar salad * Now you just gotta come here and have the original - Although we were addressed like American tourists, they welcomed us with open arms * The waiters are dressed in slacks and vests, and the rest of clientele are dressed business casual. We did feel out of place. - They make it in front of you which is fun, and a bonus for you IG live fol - The margarita immaculate, and cheap too (I think 6 use) - the whole bill was cheap, we ate two salas (enough for four ppl), bone marrow app (one serving serves four) and for margaritas for $41..if this restaurant were in Manhattan we easily spend $100 read more

This is it, one of the premiere foodie destinations of Tijuana. It is a must go eat place, especially for Southern California residents who are a mere 2-3 hours away. Not just for the dining but for the "historical" value, it is the birthplace of the Caesar Salad, which they make tableside the original way, for about $5 per person. Located on the main touristy street Revolution Road, it is in Caesars Hotel next door to Carl's Junior. You can't miss it, it's about a mile away from the Border Crossing. So the story is that during the 1920's, Italian immigrant took his Caesar Cardini took his restaurant from San Diego and moved it to Tijuana to avoid Prohibition where he invented the Caesar Salad. It's no joke! They make it here and it's an inspiring production where they make it in front of you with a cart and everything, ground up anchovies, olive oil, avacado, egg yolk, etc. But besides that, the food is amazing and it is a fine dining restaurant, though the prices are about half or more off of what you'd normally pay in the US. They have steaks, fish, beef wellington, tapas, Italian entrees all done well and with premium service. Also have a full bar as well as craft beer, it really is a must do for the dining experience. Highly recommend read more

An absolute experience, an absolute culinaarg experience, enjoyable to the first degree. To have the waiters prepare your Ceasar salad in front of you was awesome and to have them stand at attention waiting for anything you might need while dining was very different, made me feel like I was at a super , super expensive restaurant, the fish was perfect, the drinks were unreal, I had the cuchmber martini with chamoi on the rim of the glass and I'd have to say it was one of the greatest drinks I've ever had, so fresh and so clean, clean . Super delicious. The creame brulee was unreal, super tasty and super delicious. The total was below 100 dollars for four of us, drinks, desert and a great experience included, the pricing it just unbelievable, very cheap and well worth your time , thank you . read more

OMG, I would cross the border for every nice restaurant meal here if I could. I don't know why they don't have a Michelin star. Every dish is expertly prepared. It's fun to order their signature Caesar's salad and have the waiter prepare it right at your tableside--and it's delicious! I honestly don't remember the details of what the two of us ate here, but I do remember that we were wowed by every dish. And the gin martinis were as good as they get. We were there for lunch and wanted to go back at dinner. I loved the old school ambiance of the place--Frank Sinatra music playing and silent but attentive waiters in black with white aprons. I will eat here every time I'm in Tijuana. read more

Came here around 3pm and it wasn't too busy, we were able to be seated outside! Since this is in the heart of downtown Tijuana, you still are able to get that nice street feel sitting outside but they have nice glass walls to protect you from debris and noise. We came here exclusively to try the Casear's Salad, which is surprisingly where it was invented! We ordered two Casear's Salad for two people. It was a cool experience because they make it from scratch in front of you on a cart and they chose great, thick, juicy pieces of lettuce, with great consistency. The croutons are real baked bread. The real treat was the Caesar's salad sauce which they made from eggs, olive oil, etc and it tasted pretty good! The service and staff were fairly slow and the interaction was minimal and not that great. Even though the restaurant wasn't busy, they seemed busy and it was hard to call them over. Also, the price of this restaurant is very expensive as it's definitely a touristy spot and is way above the prices of everything else in the area. We tried the salad it was good, but probably not worth it and I wouldn't come back! read more

While visiting Tijuana (TJ's, as the locals call it) I had the pleasure of dining at Caesar's. The restaurant opens up at 12:00 noon and we were greeted by the hostess who spoke to us in formal Spanish. She referred to us as "vos" which is highly respectful. I was at once intrigued and felt like a celebrity! The Caesar salad is their speciality and it was made table-side. The ingredients were fresh and made the best Caesar dressing I have ever tasted! For an appetizer, we started with the "Mexican Caviar" tacos. You must know that Mexican caviar is beans... so we had bean tacos. For my entree, I ordered the salmon Wellington which arrived piping hot and perfectly cooked. It was absolutely delicious. I finished with the dulce de leche crepes which were divine! We drank martinis and felt like wealthy aristocrats! LOL The ambience in this restaurant reminded me of a fancy New York restaurant. The walls are adorned with black and white photographs of notable Mexican patrons. The staff wears crisply starched uniforms and the safety protocols were more stringent than in the USA. Our temperature was taken at the door, we were given hand sanitizer in our palms and we walked across a mat soaked in bleach. The employees all wore masks. I highly recommend that you try this high class restaurant. The menu prices are in pesos so divide by 20 to get an approximate amount in US dollars. My entree was only $16.75!! You cannot beat these affordable prices! read more

This is a tradition for me! Caesar's is delicious always and it's on a nice touristy street. We stayed at the hotel so i was so happy I was going to be able to get my favorite salad whenever I wanted! Well the ceasar salad NEVERRR dissapoints!! The croutons are perfectly toasted and crispy, I love the whole romaine leaves. Truly authentic. I also got the lemon butter caper sauce with salmon which came with veggies and mashed potatoes. It came with fresh bread and butter (always a pleasure) The mashed potatoes were obviously delicious but the veggies were almost raw. I have to eat cooked veggies and it was a disappointment... but sadly another disappointment was the salmon. It was so tasty the sauce you could drink! I mean it's seriously so delicious but it was so over cooked ... the sauce couldn't even save how dry it was. So make sure to tell them medium on the fish or mention not to over cook it bc they hammered mine! Couldn't enjoy it honestly. But the CEASAR SALAD is a must have!! Do not sleep on it! Plus the table side service and make the salad is amazing! read more

Yum! The escargot and risotto were some of our faves other than the salad which was great of course :)

What can you say about the restaurant that created the Caesar salad? Conveniently located on the main tourist strip in Tijuana, it offers five-star dining and an opulent ambience to escape the tourist crowds and enjoy a fabulous meal. If you're a margarita or martini lover, you're home. I highly recommend the tamarind margarita...a local fruit with a nice bite fashioned into a generous margarita! It's a bit pricey by local standards but if you don't mind splurging, you won't be disappointed! read more

The coveted 5 I'm far from a food snob but I hold on to my 5 star rating very tightly. However, this place crushes! The service was top notch - friendly, multilingual, timely, and on point. The vibe was old school cool - slow jazz playing at a background level, great decor, lots of charm. Definitely a date night type of spot. Had the Caesar salad prepared tableside. Read carefully: the salad prep was the coolest thing I've ate! The Calamari was absolutely the best (5 continents traveled), I've ever had!!! Entrees: I'll save some surprise for you to discover on your own. Place should be on your must do list if you're visiting the area read more

It's a historic restaurant and it gives you that old timey feeling. I of course got the Caesar salad and it's honestly the best caeser salad I've ever had! The dressing is made table side and you can just tell by the quality of ingredients that's it gonna be great. My fiancé who's vegetarian also wanted to try the salad but since there worchester sauce and anchovies he didn't want to but they were more than accommodating to his diets and were willing to omit that for him. This was definitely my bucket list restaurant and I'm so glad I came. The servers were so nice and I'm glad that a few spoke English since my Spanish is so bad. The drinks are strong! And a great price they also have valet which is convenient since parking is a bit much Around the area. I definitely recommend this spot to everyone! read more
