Ribeye. 5 out 5
Alejandro B.

Amazing steakhouse, had the rib eye and the filet mignon. Both were cooked and perfectly to medium, sides offered are traditional mashed potatoes, baked potatoes, and fries. The ambiance was great and the staff was welcoming. The prices were definitely a bit high like any hood American steakhouse. Definitely recommend it. They had a great selection of wine, beer(micro brew and traditional).

Appetizers! Baja fries, house ceviche, and carpaccio

Amazing quality for a steakhouse. We called an hour beforehand for a reservation and luckily they had space. We were seated relatively quickly. We started out with appetizers. The baja fries were sooo good. The steak included was so high quality, it wasn't chewy at all even though it was cut into large pieces. The guacamole was also delicious. The ceviche was tasty, with balanced citrus flavors without being too acidic. The carpaccio was delicious as well. Personally I didn't order drinks, but they had a large variety of liquor and wine available. As for my fillet mignon, wow. It was cooked perfectly at medium rare, and it sliced like butter. I would say the bacon around it was unnecessary, but it didn't take away from the steak. The mashed potatoes and veggies were alright, but the steak really was fantastic. I also tried my friend's prime rib, which had a huge portion, and also was very delicious. Overall, it was a wonderful meal. I will say service felt slow at times, though I'm not sure if it only felt that way because I was hungry. The ambiance at the restaurant is lovely, with dimmed lighting and lots of huge booths. The bathrooms are huge and really aesthetic. For the price, the quality is fantastic. Would definitely recommend.

Good wine!

When we visited Baja California, it was during the winter time. The hotels food was ok, nothing great and you could only really use the jacuzzi and indoor pool. During the day we dined of course near the harbor, but during one of the nights we decided to try this place out. It was absolutely fantastic, the quality was up their with us city restaurants and the waiter had some of the best service ever. Prices were a little steep. 1. Great decor 2. Excellent wine menu. When you enter you can see a wine wall 3. A+ waiter service 4. Good tasting food 5. A little pricey Would come again!!!

This was our first time here and wasn't expecting much as we were coming in last minute referred by our host from the hotel Quintas Papagayo which was also a really good spot to stay at, 5 minutes away. From the beginning to the end the service was awesome, greeted right away and seated within seconds. The inside was lighted very nicely that contrasted the look and feel of a traditional Mexican restaurant but very formal like a high end fine dinning restaurant in the states. Very clean including the restrooms that provide small towels instead of paper towels. The food, AMAZING! Being a steakhouse I chose the filet mignon cooked medium rare and it was right on point. Everyone in the group was very pleased and since it was my uncles birthday they brought out a small dessert as well. They had a separate side for a bar in case you were coming in for a small dinner or late hour drinks. Outside there was good music playing along with what looked like a performing stage and grassy area for a small concert. Definitely can see it pumping in the summer as it's location is perfect. We appreciate the hospitality and look forward to coming back again! Five star review well deserved, Aloha's!

A little Ensenada Gem. Receiving server was great at offering delicious appetizer / starter…read moresuggestions. Overall service was excellent and attentive. The food was exquisite. Drink options were great. We asked if they offered Irish Mule. They didn't, and did not hesitate to create their best mule for us. The fideos tostados, con cabeza were mouth waterIng. Their sushi version was delicious. Their wood fire cooked tomahawk is accompanied with a delicious fire roasted salsa and freshly made guacamole. Everything we had was mouthwatering. They are so attentive and want to offer you the best experience during your visit. The even played a song / music requests. Highly recount his location. It's away from the tourist area but well worth the visit.

great new place in Ensenada. Kind of throws one off with…read more the space sharing with a coffee place (La Bicicleta). I guess the north side outside seating is more for Buffalo. We had the rib eye and the new york steak. Both delicious, but my dining companion thought the veggie side were a bit too oily. The star of the meal was the appetizer - Queso Ahogado. Thick piece of cheese breaded in a panko type coating, and fried where the cheese melted but the coating wasnt greasy at all. It was plated on a tomato based sauce with I believe chicharon in it. Really unique. Tortillas and bread came with our meals. For 2 with appetizer, meal and 2 beers came in around $50-$55 total. Great deal. Not crowded early Friday evening.
