Best Contemporary Mexican Restaurants in Ocean Beach

The bar tender mixes the best drinks! I had a “tequila mule” and a “Frida and Diego” and my wife had “La Rosita.” The food is so great I ordered the octopus appetizer and the cilantro soup and my wife had duck burritos and Salad. The names are simple. The flavors stay with you all night and on. The staff make it greater.

The food is a 5* for sure. They have large servings as well. The carnitas enchiladas were bomb, the steak and shrimp fajitas also bomb. The service was a 3*... the waitress was a bit rude. We had 8 total with 4 kids with us, she was not friendly. I noticed the attitude and didn't say anything, then my husband noticed and told me she wasn't friendly. Our kids were well behaved and we weren't difficult with orders or anything so not sure what was up. I would not consider this place kid friendly for a few reasons. 1. No activity sheet with crayons for kids, they gave us 1 kids menu for both of our families to share, not sure they were low or what but we asked for two and were told they only had 1. They don't have kids cups with lids and straws, this alone is almost worth not going back. Both the 4 year olds spilled their water and were playing with it. Their cups for the kids were just open cups. If you get kids cups with kids and straws then let us know and we will be back. The alcoholic drinks were okay. I sensed some carbonation in the skinny margarita which I hate, the menu did not say it had soda water. The glass was skinny and tall, I personally look forward to the classic old fashioned double walled glasses. The tajin rim was weak too. Overall the food was so good almost worth going back for but would love to see some friendlier service and kids cups.

We had such a great experience there. The good is amazing. And the service is right on point. Our server was amazing. I wish I could remember his name, younger guy in great shape. We will definitely be back

Such a fun atmosphere. We ordered all of the server's recommendations and they were all amazing. The menu is made for sharing which is nice because you can try more things.

Our experience tonight was great. Although we had a reservation, we got in right away as we were a little early.
