    Este lugar era unos de los mejores lleve a mis primos y que mal me quedo. La carne de asada sabe a carbón y el chorizo es el de menos calidad. Porfis cambia de cocinero o dale práctica porque en un entonces está delicioso pero no se lo que pasó.

    Taco Alicia is your typical Tijuana neighborhood taco stand. Many families come here to eat with their children, no matter what time of the day (they do open late). It's located right next to an Oxxo so you won't miss it. Service was quick and friendly. They had one person directing traffic it seems like they have a small courtyard you can park a few cars inside the courtyard which was cool. However you can only park like 2 car outside the door max so plan accordingly. Their outdoor dining (nice benches and modern decorations) made me feel very safe COVID wise. It's outdoor dining but it's actually in the courtyard so you feel secure and safe. The only thing is that when I went they didn't give me any condiments or sauces, however their tacos were still delish without any sauces. I would definitely recommend this place to everyone.

    Mulita de Carne Asada en tortilla de maiz.... Simply amazing. My dad used to bring us here when this place used to be a small little stand on the side of the road. The food continues to be amazing, this place is just bigger and better. Este Luger es y a sido uno de los mejores desde hace mucho tiempo. La comido es riquísima.

    Yummy tacos

    Carne Assad at Tacos Alicia. Great food low prices away from the tourist heavy streets, on Fundadores. Excellent selection of tacos, tortas and mulitas . Every Sunday and Monday all tacos and sodas are 10 pesos.

    A bit out of the way from the center of Tijuana, but the drive isn't difficult, so I'd recommend this place.

    Lots of different taco shops on this same corner. We had Los paisas. Great friendly fast and…read morehelpful service! Delicious tacos. If you can't handle spice, ask for no salsa as it is very spicy. Very filling Adobada was delicious

    Vintage Tijuana spot here! Las Ahumaderas has for decades been one of the better (top 3-5, arguably…read more#1) spots in TJ for tacos - highly recommended by tourists and locals alike. Las Ahumaderas is a collection of 5-6 taquerias on one side street off Blvd. Agua Caliente, one of the main thoroughfares in TJ. The taquerias offer very solid, relatively cheap tacos and tend to stay open until super late at night (often until 4 am). Las Ahumaderas is famously nicknamed "Taco Alley" and gained some international recognition after being featured one of Anthony Bourdain's travel and food shows. I've been several times but last stopped by Las Ahumaderas in September. The most popular spot there (and my personal favorite) is Las Tres Salsas - would highly recommend checking out that taqueria first if you've never been. The most highly regarded tacos here are the adobada (pork) tacos (my personal favorite as well). Ordered two adobada tacos, one suadero (cow belly) taco, and a Sprite. The nice thing about the food and drink at Ahumaderas is that a lot of the basic items are priced the same - each taco and the sprite were 45 pesos (around $2.50 USD) each. The tacos were all well-portioned, tasty, and filling (as usual). One thing a lot of tourists don't know is Las Tres Salsas has two levels, with the second level sometimes having a decent, relaxing view and atmosphere depending on the time of day. So I ordered and ate on the second floor (ordered from the server for that floor). Cash (dollars or pesos) are by far the most common method of payment but credit cards are also accepted at Las Tres Salsas and I think the other taquerias at Ahumaderas as well. If you don't speak Spanish there's usually someone at the register who speaks enough English to get by though the server I had that afternoon happened to speak very good English. Right after Las Tres Salsas I went to Tacos El Paisano, one of the other taquerias in the establishment. Ordered 1 asada (steak) taco, 1 cabeza (cow's head) taco, and a Fresca soda. Like Las Tres Salsas, all of the items were 45 pesos each. The tacos here were also good, though not as good as Las Tres Salsas; both of the tacos fell apart a bit due to being slightly soggy (though again they were good). I'm a picky eater but there are a wide variety of tacos, quesadillas, and other items to try between the handful of taquerias at Ahumaderas. Las Ahumaderas is about a 13-15 minute walk down Agua Caliente from Telefonica Gastro Park, another excellent foodie location in TJ. Must visit if you've never been before!

Have your hotel do it or call them. It is owned by CDMZ I think, it reminds me of one. The moment you walk in you are made to feel comfortable and happy. It is quite beautiful. The service is true fin dinning service. You will want for nothing. The entire staff is great. Dressy, but business casual is just fine. Go in a armless tee and cargo shorts and you will be out of place. They have an amazing selection of food. They have sushi, empanadas, steaks, tacos and all sorts of small plates. We get a bunch and share. Their sushi is so fresh and their steak is cooked to perfection. They even have some great soups now and again. There is something for everyone here. Parking is valet for a fee. It is a wonder, it really is.

The moment you walk in, there are multiple servers greeting you and escorting you to your table. You know right away that it's going to be a memorable evening. I actually did not know that there was Japanese fare here too, and I tried to concentrate on the local Mexico dishes. I am not a big eater so in order to taste a variety I tried to choose appetizers and small bites. The evening began with complimentary salsas, three of them, with chips. What is unique is that their chips are long rectangular strips of different composition. The salsas were fresh. I liked the green one the best and once I had finished these, they brought another batch of chips, but these had a mild but satisfying cheese taste. Both of the chip varieties were spectacular. My first choice for food, was the almond crusted green beans that are drizzled with sweet and sour sauce. This clearly had a Japanese tint to it. It is a large potion I only finished half of it. My only comment on this dish is that I couldn't taste the almonds. It looked more like it was a tempura type fry. The sweet and sour sauce dominated the dish. My second selection, was the popular (according to my server), the Taco Richi (ribbeye, cheese crust, pork cracklings, and avocado). Comes as one piece. This was superb. Finally, more Tacos, the Beef Steak Gaonera (Hand-made tortillas, guacamole and pico de gallo). Comes as two pieces. This too was equally good. I also succumbed and ordered a side order of french fries too. At the end, they surprised me with a complimentary dessert. A small potion of their cheesecake, which had four caramelized macadamia nuts on top. It was different. Overall, it was a dining experience that was unmatched and one that can give LA restaurants, serious competition. I had at least five different servers taking care of me right through the night. Needless to say, the service was outstanding.
