Restaurant Isabel is a place where the locals go as it's off the main streets in a residential area, not my favorite place for Breakfast in Ensenada but it does the job at a reasonable price, and for you gabachos you're in Mexico now so relax.... don't expect speedy service.

Menudo - http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/restaurante-isabel-ensenada?select=ST4YA6pcJhEkGnFCO4RulA along with the condiments http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/restaurante-isabel-ensenada?select=uGW-WQzoihevDYh2hzYXZA now you have http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/restaurante-isabel-ensenada?select=R7qGQBJncYUWsQJ7m-NdKQ this wasn't my order and I didn't try it but I was told it was good.
Chilaquiles - http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/restaurante-isabel-ensenada?select=sZioYMoqKdS9xTu7OIIPdQ The chilaquiles/tortilla had a nice bite to them (meaning not hard but also not a soft mess) http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/restaurante-isabel-ensenada?select=4tqWRSbe_sfrf4dOLTRyZQ the eggs were cooked beautifully, the beans were good but my only complaint is the small portion size on the beans, it's like one small scoop.
Omelet con Chorizo y Nopales - http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/restaurante-isabel-ensenada?select=9XegTvEwwGeYMSbHOgww4g (not on the menu, I asked them to make it) I must say this was a really good Omelet, the pork chorizo mixed with the fresh nopales http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/restaurante-isabel-ensenada?select=qOblx79VSgnnfCuAzKHe_w tasted real good, my two complaints if you look at the previous photos, again the small portion of Beans! and what's up with the frozen has brown patty.... can you say #McDonalds! http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/restaurante-isabel-ensenada?select=jgIew35rzG77S25RYI6SsA While the Omelet was very good, I expect more from the sides, you make all this food from scratch but now you're gonna serve some frozen potato patty? #Hijole.
House made Flour Tortillas - http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/restaurante-isabel-ensenada?select=eIXhFcg_q7XutnFFOp1_mw Nice and thin with a real good taste.
Enchilada's Verde - http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/restaurante-isabel-ensenada?select=623AeBCCM9GRW0FLaFgetA Cheese enchiladas in salsa verde, the salsa verde was a bit too sour, this generally balances out when cooked with fatty meats such as pork, but when you're just making Cheese Enchiladas the salsa should be adjusted and they did not.
The food ranged from 3 - 4 Stars read more
