Vittorio's - Tijuana Solid, reliable Italian themed food. If you know Olive Garden type spots, this is familiar territory to you. The food is pretty good, not fancy, but good. Pizzas are their strong point here. Service is great, and the biggest plus is ample parking... Easy place to sit down, eat well, and leave satisfied and satiated. Recommended for families that have kids and picky eaters. Like this food review please. Jordan read more

Una experiencia deliciosa e inolvidable en Vittorio's! Si estás buscando auténtico sabor italiano con un servicio de primera en Tijuana, ¡Vittorio's es el lugar ideal! Desde que entramos, el ambiente fue cálido y acogedor. La decoración con retratos italianos, detalles tradicionales y la música italiana de fondo crearon el ambiente perfecto para disfrutar nuestra cena. Nuestro mesero, Ángel, nos dio un servicio excelente. Fue muy atento, siempre con una actitud positiva, nos trajo las bebidas rápidamente y nos consintió con un delicioso pan de ajo para empezar--¡riquísimo! Y la comida... ¡wow! Yo pedí una pizza de pepperoni con champiñones, y estaba deliciosa. La salsa tenía un sabor especiado perfecto, con bastante pepperoni y champiñones. La masa estaba en su punto--suave pero crujiente en cada mordida. También probamos los espaguetis con albóndigas--¡una delicia! La salsa muy sabrosa y las albóndigas enormes y perfectamente sazonadas. Muy reconfortante y exquisito. La pasta con pescado siciliano fue otro platillo que destacó, con la combinación perfecta de especias y salsa. Cada bocado lleno de sabor. Ya estoy planeando regresar para probar más platillos del menú. Definitivamente voy a recomendar Vittorio's a mis amigos y familiares. Un restaurante que es una joya--con excelente comida, un ambiente encantador y un servicio excepcional--¿qué más se puede pedir? Ahora en Ingles: A Delicious and Memorable Experience at Vittorio's! If you're looking for authentic Italian flavor with top-notch service in Tijuana, Vittorio's is the place to go! From the moment we walked in, the ambiance was warm and inviting. The Italian décor--portraits, details, and classic Italian music playing softly in the background--set the perfect tone for our evening. Our server, Angel, provided outstanding customer service. He was incredibly attentive, always had a positive attitude, brought our drinks quickly, and even served us some delicious garlic bread to start--yum! As for the food--wow! I ordered the pepperoni and mushroom pizza, and it was absolutely delicious. The zesty sauce had the perfect balance of flavor, and there was a generous amount of pepperoni and mushrooms. The crust was just right--soft with a crunchy bite that made every slice better than the last. We also tried the spaghetti and meatballs--what a treat! The sauce was rich and flavorful, and the meatballs were huge and perfectly seasoned. Truly comforting and delicious. The Sicilian fish pasta was another standout, with just the right blend of spices and sauce. Every bite was full of flavor. I can't wait to go back and try more items from the menu.

As someone that drives down to Baja consistently, I'm surprised that I've overlooked this place for over a decade. Not until I came here on a date did I realize how big of a gem this place is. I first came here in April, and my girlfriend recommended this place. It was a weekday evening, so the place was not too packed. The place has intimate lighting, and the place is decorated decently. After getting some recommendations from the staff, we decided on camarones a la diabla, which is a plate of spicy shrimp on a bed of pasta. To share, we had a pizza which was half chicken, and half shrimp. The shrimp pasta and the pizza were amazing, surpassing my expectations. The shrimp pizza was as good as the one I had at Xcaret in Playa del Carmen. Recently, I came back to this place with a buddy of mine. We came here on a weekend evening, so needless to say it was packed. Even still, we had a table almost immediately, which was nice. My buddy ordered meatballs over pasta, while I ordered the same shrimp plate as the previous time. We ordered the Mexican pizza to share, which came with chorizo. Both out plates and the pizza were delicious. The service here was on point. They consistently checked in on us, and we were taken cared of well. Check out was at the front of the restaurant, since I always use card. This place is great. If you find yourself in Baja, and you're craving Italian food, give this place a try. read more

I came to this place July 2024 with a friend and we order the pizza with sausage and peppers, the pizza was cooked to perfection and it tasted very good.

I decided to go to Vittorio's while in Tijuana only because it was next door to the dentist office and not too far from my hotel. My food absolutely delicious and the restaurant was very clean and decorated like an Italian restaurant you usually see in Mob Movies (this is a good thing). read more

Best Italian food in Tijuana! The Chicken Parmesan is to die for. There's a reason why this place has been here for decades. The service is amazing. It's the closest thing to New York but in Tijuana. So good read more

Racist people here !!! I came here and ordered 1 pizza waited almost an hour, while people who came in 20 minutes after me received their pizza, I know this move it's a behavioral pattern... I complained about the food and waiting time and they just laughed at me !!' Never have I received such poor service !!! Never again Black Lives Matter !!!! read more

We were given large portions. We ordered a pizza de lujo and spaghetti con mantequilla y champiñones. The spaghetti was very simple and some mushrooms were good and others were so bitter. The salad was doused in vinaigrette. The pizza was so doughy and the cheese was barely melted. I would not recommend this place. It was a Saturday evening and there were many large parties present so maybe there were too many orders to handle. read more

I've passed by this spot for the past 30 years or so and never went because I was always I Tijuana for nothing other than tacos or mole. It dawned on me one day as I cruised throughout Tijuana, how cultured and diverse they were with their food, I decided to make it a point to start exploring the true essence of Tijuana. Well, I was not disappointed. I walked to Vittorio's. After reading plenty of reviews, apparently, there is usually a wait but but naturally, due to Corona virus, I was seated immediately. Very clean restaurant. Old skool Italian setting. Friendly staff. I know the thing to get there is Pizza and Sangria but I just wasn't in the mood so I ordered a chicken parmigiana...OMG, so tender. The sauce was out of this world. Stay away from the bread, it's too addicting. Geez, I don't know how many refills I asked for but lord, so glad I decided to visit this place. I will be back! Next visit...pizza and sangria. It did not disappoint. read more

Very good food! Ordered the spaghetti and meatballs and they did not disappoint. Meatballs were piping hot and tasted fresh. Spaghetti was cooked right and the sauce was great. Comida rica! Pedi espaguetis con albóndigas y estaba rico! Albondigas estaban recién echas, espaguetis y salsa de tomate estaba super. Lo recomiendo definitivamente. read more

Must agree with Shyann's review. Came in and waited in front for service. Was told to go in and be seated. I seated myself and was then ignored for 30 minutes. I noticed that 2 subsequent Mexican customers were taken to their seats by the staff. I only got a menu after the Mexican customers in the 2 adjacent tables finished eating, paid and left. Expect to be seated at the back of the bus and be served last at this restaurant if you look American. read more

Estoy fascinada con esta comida Italiana. Thank you for the amazing service and food. For a big portion and homecooked ITALIANO me encanto. I ordered a big jug of Sangria. I lived around the corner for a few years and every once in a blue moon I enjoyed coming to eat to one my Favorite Foods. Pizza and Italian. Never dissapointed. Foods always fresh what I love about BAJAS food. It's always cooked to order. The PIZZA here is good. Not greasy neither or the pasta dishes. They have specials with big portions. The place is always packed Friday to Sunday. I've always gone on a weekday. Thanks for the amazing Italian reminds me of back home Mom's and Pop's Restaurant. No picture taken sorry Yelpers. Try it out if your ever in the City on Revoluccion. read more

I have been enjoying the food here for over 7 years. I have never had a single problem the entire time I have been enjoying myself here. Without a doubt the best Sangria ever and if you can't finish it you can always get a go cup. No matter what their soup of the day is I have always loved it. Even soups that I wouldn't normally eat have been delicious here. The other night the split pea soup was the soup of the day and neither myself nor my dinning companion actually like Split Pea soup well we both loved their version. You cannot go wrong with the Veal Piccata here. This is a busy red and white checked tablecloth Italian place go and enjoy yourself! read more

This was a series of unfortunate events. We were in town our last night before returning to the States, looking specifically for Italian craving food, we saw this restaurant of course in Yelp. Looks like a lot of tradition in the area, we were skeptical because were bad and good reviews, but we were so close that we decided : why not right? The place smells good, super old , half full, we were getting excited to tried the menu. And oh my, the portions were huge, and the taste was worst. Lasagna and meatballs flavorless, mediocre pizza that honestly we had to return all the plates. The service was okay but our waiter was some rude since he saw we were returning the whole banquet. The most unfortunate part was when a very despicable old lady ( Owner) came to almost yelled at our face that the food was excellent and their business is the best in Tijuana. Terrible manners, not even an apologize for the bad food, and of course they charge us the whole bill, which regrettably we paid but was more that bad feeling about her manners than nothing. Never coming back! read more

Hearty Italian restaurant with great customer service. Garlic bread was perfectly toasted and you can actually see the small pieces of garlic on the bread. Main course was amazing too. We had more than enough and we still packed some of the leftovers to-go. Only thing I would want different is their appetizer salad. It was lukewarm and I wish they would've chilled the salad. read more

I've been coming to Vittorios for more than 10 yrs. The marinara sauce is delicious. I can say the sangria is the best one I have ever had, you need to try it. Moderate Price for a Cena para Dos, you can easily feed 3 or 4. The restaurant is kinda old (and old Looking) however, I keep Coming back because of the sangria and spaghetti. read more

I've been eating here for a few years and unfortunately, the value for what you pay for has reduced considerably since I've started eating here (especially in the last couple of years or so). What used to be a good bargain for good quality food has now been reduced to a "tourist trap" of sorts as now the prices are on par with Italian-American restaurants in Los Angeles and San Diego. I was so appalled at their prices that I almost didn't order anything the last time I walked into their restaurant and practically everything on the menu had jumped up in price by about 25-35% aside from their pizza which I never ordered before. I decided to purchase one and get told that I have to pay "extra" for a meatballs on my pizza on top of what an extra topping is as it's "premium". After paying near $10 for this pizza, I get a good quality pizza, albeit in the most petite size that I easily ate in one sitting with a friend still hungry for much more. Other people say this is much better than Olive Garden and I would maintain this for pizza, but even Olive Garden has much better value and quality overall for what you get for ordering pasta there. Also, Giuseppi's is a much better value than Vittorio's, but still having that premium quality (I think Giuseppi's dough and sauce is better; although, Vittorio's cheese is better) as well so I don't feel like I get my money's worth anymore. read more

I would like to give this place 4 stars based on taste and value however my main complaint is that I keep on getting diarrhea after I eat here. First time was after eating the rib eye. Tasty steak though. Second time was after eating half a torpedo sandwich. I loved the taste and after I recovered, I went to eat the other half of my sandwich. Bad mistake . Got sick again so now I narrowed it down. Went back recently to try the torpedo again. Only ate half and saved the other half. Didn't drink the water or eat the jalapeño either. Sure as day, I got sick again! I am a chef. Their kitchen is not visable so my guess is 1) problems with refrigeration . Meats are going bad due to being held at wrong temps 2) poor dishwasher. Things are not being sanitized properly. I am not lactose intolerant and I don't have any allergies. Many people have recommended this place as an old time favorite. Service is lacking too . Salad is consistently drowned in oil. But who cares about service and salad if you consistently get diarrhea? So... my advice to you is to eat half and see what happens. I hate giving bad reviews to places that have been branded as local favorite. read more

Really good pizza. Half Lujo/Half Sausage with bell peppers (salchicha y chile moron. Better than some places in California. And definitely the best pizza I've had in Mexico. And I've traveled to a lot of places in Mexico and have a thing for trying pizza in different places since its one of my favorite foods. The sausage was good and ground. Unlike other pizza joints in Mexico where the sausage is a hot dog sausage cut into slices, no Vittorio's sausage is Brooklyn/US style. Met the owner. Very nice lady and definitely has a Brooklyn accent. Marinara sauce is authentic and legit. This place is practically home-made sauce and food from an authentic Italian-American woman. Must try. And no it does not smell like open sewers in there. Its smells good. TJ overall is what smells like open sewage. This place is an escape and nice vibe inside. read more

Great food great service it's a really nice old style Italian restaurant good price is very reasonable and the portions are good I highly recommend it we've eaten here many times and we keep coming back read more

This is hands down the best place to eat Italian food in Tijuana. I came here without any expectations and was completely blown away with the food. they have amazing marinara sauce and really good pastas. I didn't get to try the pizza but my review is based on the lasagna and salad I had. I'm a regular at places in little Italy in San Diego but I'm glad I found this gem in Tijuana. Highly recommended this place if you're in Mexico. the wait is the only downside if you come during a rush but the food is definitely worth the wait. read more

Some of the best Italian food I've ever had. Great atmosphere, music, and pricing. We worth the 10-15 minute wait for a table.

Very good food. It was my first visit. We had ribeye steak ($15 US) and it comes with spaghetti. It was delicious and too much to eat. Their garlic bread is great too! It's conveniently located next to Washington Dental (also fantastic). read more

Excellent Pizza, great service, great value, not a fan of their fettuccine Alfredo (im not saying I didn't like it) Some times there's a lot of wait however that's only a clear indication that food is great. I do recommend this place. read more

This is an amazing place. Who comes to Mexico for Italian food.... well they should. This is better than any place in Iowa or Tennessee I have been to. Makes olive garden look like a cheap truck stop. read more

Oooph, it's been a while since I ate at Vittorio's but I had to come back and write a review because this place is part and parcel of bad Italian food in TJ. As my party walked through through the main dining area, I noticed cooks emptying canned pasta sauce into a pot (major red flag, pasta sauce isn't terribly difficult to make and needs to be made from scratch at any Italian restaurant worth its salt). I ended up ordering the ravioli which was a mistake, as it was obviously frozen. The garlic bread was also quite bizarre, white bread of indeterminate origin (definitely not Italian) smeared with butter mixed with powdered garlic. It did have chunks of garlic on it, but it was bitter which means it likely came out of a jar. I'm honestly baffled by all the five star reviews, especially the ones claiming this is better than what you can get in San Diego (seriously, Olive Garden puts this place to shame). This place is aggressively mediocre and sadly par for the course when it comes to eating Italian food in Tijuana. I'm adding one star because the sangria was pretty good. read more

Haven't had such good Italian food since New York. Judith makes the Pizza sauce herself !. The Minestrone soup was homemade. Fritatta was excellent. Best Italian food this side of the border. And they're open to 2am. read more

Goood food..... during the day I believe they have specials with like a pizza a salad and a drink. Good food although the pizza needs a bit more sauce on it. The Calzones are delicious and so is the Garlic bread. I have not tried the sangria yet. Prices are good. This place has a small parking area for vehicles. read more

Not the best place. Been here a few times and it has not been pleasant. The waiter I got was really slow and it looked like he was new, but he was nice. Though they take a really long time to bring out the food. Also, one time there was this little fly on my salad, I told the waiter and he brought me a new one. The pizza is alright, but not the best. read more

Italian food in Tijuana? Yes it's real! And pretty good! We tried a pepperoni pizza and chicken Alfredo. Both were surprisingly delicious! The pizza had a great crispy crust and the amount of cheese was perfect. I expected the chicken Alfredo to be bland, but it was generously seasoned. Service was fast and friendly. read more

Best Italian in Tijuana, hands down. Probably better than most in CA too. Excellent food. Huge portions (more than necessary), cheap prices, and great service. The owner is from Brooklyn and is usually right there to greet you and check on your table every so often. Original made from scratch dishes, nothing frozen or precooked. Truly excellent, A+. Only problem is it gets packed nightly, so call ahead for a reservation or you will have to wait. read more

Really great food, just keep in mind it's a small restaurant, you could end up waiting up to an hour just to enjoy a great Italian dish, but it's worth it. read more

went to see I love my dentist so my daughter in law and I had an idea of what it looked like and it was closed but was able to peek in as I love my dentist has orthodontist and the other dental place only do dental so we were hungry and decided to eat here and am I glad we did talk about the best tasting pizza ever! the parking is located in the back and your vehicle is safe be sure to take your parking ticket as they stamp it and you get free parking. There are many shops down this strip and it was a lot of fun just checking it out! I am clicking on the photo below however they have remodeled and its super nice! the prices are awesome too! read more

The place is way overpriced! And the inside smells like open sewers, also we ordered a michelada and they borought us a cup with ice and some lemon juice with one can of beer and charged us over $ 90 pesos just for ice beer And when i asked the owner why they charged so much? She said because we ordered michelada! The waiters are good but for the high as prices they should at least remodel the place is dark and the tables are so cramed together you have to ssqueeze to walk out. You practiacally rub elbows with the people next to you. When you ask for more bread? Youre done with your dinner by the time you get it. Also they have signs on the walls and on the tables to let you know you have only 2 hours to sit there and eat! So if by 2 hours you aint done? They ask for the table!! What a shit hole!!!i dont recomend this crap hole only if you like eating in a overpriced dungeon! Also they have only parking for like maybe 3 cars! And if you want a pitcher of beer or soda they dont have it you have to buy per can!! What a major ripp off! read more

My favorite restaurant in Tijuana. Delicious Italian (New York style) cooking in a charming small location. Last time I was there I met the owner Judy, a real Italian girl from New Jersey. She was so gracious and eager to talk about the history of the restaurant. Best on the menu: all pizzas, and the bruschetta is the best ever! And the sangria! Expect a 30 minute wait in the evening... read more
