    Salad yaaaa!!!
    michelle s.

    I used to love coming to Caesar this time it was very disappointing. My sister salad is always very good, but I got the duck La'orange which is my favorite staple but unfortunately, it came out dry and overcut had to send it back and then by the time I seen the bag of room we ordered anything because we were already eating the pasta which was a very good . Experienced their iconic service was OK and ambience is always fun. Not sure if I'll go back anytime soon but definitely go for the Caesar salad.

    FUN FACT: Caesar salad was invented here in TJ! I was shook when I learned that -- and also very excited because Caesar's Restaurant is just a short drive across the border. The restaurant is located on Revolución, so there's plenty to walk around and explore, plus lots of paid, secured parking nearby. We went during lunch for drinks and, of course, a Caesar salad. I love the whole idea of a tableside Caesar -- food and a show, honestly. The staff was friendly, and we ordered a mojito and a mezcal cocktail, both excellent. We got the large tableside Caesar, which is perfect for two people. The host came over, explained all the ingredients, mixed everything right in front of us, and served it up. It was great. I prefer a creamier Caesar where the anchovies are mixed in rather than left whole -- and that's exactly the style they make here. Definitely stop by, and I'd love to come back for a full meal next time we're in Tijuana.

    This place was on my bucket list for quite some time and I finally had a chance to go. I ordered a mojito and it was just perfect. As for the famous Caesar salad, it was good but to be honest the one I had in Puerto Penasco, Mexico taste it better in my opinion. But still this place is an icon and it was a good experience. For an appetizer we ordered, beef carpaccio and it was pretty good. I also ordered carbonara but it was nothing like the carbonara that I know. It was more like alfredo and I was disappointed.

    First time trying this restaurant and of course the Caesar salad is a must! Absolutely delicious. Definitely get the table side presentation for first timers. The restaurant is very classy and has a lot of history to it. Order the duck with mashed potatoes and spaghetti bolognese. The server was very kind and helpful. Will be be back !

    I was told this restaurant was the OG place where the Cesar Salad was invented. Nice restaurant I see why it's considered an icon! Very nice and busy. Place is considered high end so practice your best habits before you go! Restaurants have low music which is nice to have a proper conversation.

    Yes--get the Caesar Salad! It was literally invented at this hotel restaurant. They mix up the Caesar dressing right there at your table. Service is very professional and attentive. And I love the Roaring 20s vintage interior decor. Cozy, soft warm lighting. Lively place, but not chaotic. Pasta came out HOT and flavorful (impressive cause pasta cools down fast). They preheat the dishes so your food stays hot longer. Walking street right out front in the only charming part of Tijuana. This restaurant is like a time capsule.

    Caesar salad & Cafe Martinis

    We walked in yesterday around 3:30 and were seated right away. Our server was super quick, informative, and funny. We both agreed that it was the best Caesar salad we have EVER had. We also got the cafe martinis (espresso martini) and they were great. We will definitely be returning during our next visit.

    Medium rare "Ribeye"
    Heather J.

    May I make a suggestion? Do NOT order a steak. Caesar's is NOT the place for steak. Case in point, I ordered a rib eye, one of their most expensive cuts of red meat. Ribeye is a cut of steak known to be 1-1.5 inches thick. So when I saw my plate I wasn't sure whether to laugh or cry. The "steak" wasn't even a 1/2 inch thick. Normally, I would send a plate like this back, but I honestly did not think it would get any better. They did however nail my medium rare request Yes, their Caesar's salad is one of the best I have ever had. Yes, they mix nice at the table side with raw egg yolk, anchovy and fresh black pepper. Yes the food server was excellent. Yes the establishment has ambience. In fact, Caesar's has one of the best decors in Tijuana. Even the ladies room was one of the neatest/cleanest I've seen in the city. Now, if we could only fix the steak I might come back.

    After my friends finished their dental appointment and haircuts, we were ready to fill up our bellies with great food. Before I learned about its history, I grew up thinking the Caesar salad originated in Rome, Italy and named after Julius Caesar but the only thing Italian about it is the birthplace of its creator Cesare Cardini. And since reading about this fact, it became a bucket list item to eat the original Caesar's salad in the restaurant that first made it back in 1924. Today, we get to indulge in the experience of its table side preparation - a small production to behold with the 'salad maestro' placing each ingredient into the massive wooden bowl one by one, mixed fully and incorporating it onto the crunchy fresh Romaine lettuce then topped with generous grated Parmigiano Reggiano and toasted slices of bread. It's simple enough that anyone can do this at home and ask the question "why would you even choose store-bought dressing loaded with gums, corn syrup and chemicals. The first bite of the salad was worth the drive to San Ysidro, parking near the border, crossing over and taking an Uber to this well-known restaurant. Because my two friends just had some dental work done, they each ordered soup. One Classic French Onion soup and Tortilla soup. We shared an order of Gambas al Ajillo and I opted for the Spaghetti Al Pesto. I got to taste their soups as well and I shared half my pasta with them. Our waiters all spoke English and readily topped our glasses of water and accommodated our small requests like soda, olive oil and extra slices of bread. Only praises for the service! They were fully staffed! Compared to other guests during this lunch hour, we were underdressed in what is considerered the classiest restaurant in Tijuana according to San Diego Reader (2017) and we are not even in rugged clothing. I would definitely return here and bring my special date for a romantic evening of culinary delights and drinks.

    Creme brûlée and Sauvignon wine

    Beyond my expectations for fine dining in Tijuana. Close to the Emporium, my favorite shop for silver and copper jewelry. Creator of the famous Caesar salad. If you order a large they will prepare the salad in front of you. Watching our server at work- marvelous and the homemade dressing from start to finish, freshest taste ever. The croutons were large pieces of perfectly sliced crispy heavenly toasted bread. The marrow was sawed into 4 chunks of bone, impressively plated and arrived with 3 saucers of different flavors: spicy, beefy like gravy and simple salt. The escargot were luscious morsels in garlicky butter and perhaps parsley. Doc's octopus to share was tender and good. The calamari had the most delicate batter fried to perfection, not oily just delectable. Doc also had tacos in an Italian restaurant. Very swoon worthy, ritzy with servers dressed to the nines, dark wood, cloth napkins, photos of celebrities like Laurel and Hardy on the wall. Loved our midda meal here. I'd return here in a heart beat.

    Bone marrow on sopes
    Kay L.

    Service here was excellent and food was great. This is home to the creation of the ceasar salad so had to try that. I would say it's as good as any other places that I've had like Golden Steer in Vegas or House of Prime Ribs in SF. I can skip on this. What you must order is the bone marrow on sopes! That was delicious and one of the best bone marrow I've had. The ambiance was elegant.

    Beef wellington
    Nina M.

    My first time here but had to try it out. My brother took me here since he kept raving over the food and I have to agree, it was amazing. Did you know this restaurant is known for being the first to create the Caesar Salad? It was named after the chef, Caesar, who immigrated from Italy! We had the following: - table side caesar salad - bone marrow - chicken tortilla soup - beef wellington I enjoyed the table side service for the salad. They make the dressing, toss in the romaine, and there we have it! It was pretty good, but next time I will just get the smaller plate. The Bone marrow was mouth watering! I would order that again. Beef wellington was the perfect size and cooked very nicely. Overall the cost was about $80 USD for two people. We also has some drinks! Definitely check it out!
