Good Food, Terrible Service – Our waitress could not have looked more bored or acted more disinterested in us. She wouldn't even make eye contact, staring out the window looking oh so bored while taking our order. Good luck getting any attention once your meal arrives. We had to ask several times for more chips & water. Fortunately, we did enjoy the food (carnitas, tamalas and fajitas), but left disappointed because of the service. We've had bad service before, but this was the first time we left a tip which reflected our tr... read more

This popular Tiburon restaurant serves up nouvelle Mexican food alongside dramatic San Francisco views. – In Short Designed in the '80s, this Mexican restaurant features a pastel "Miami Vice"-like hue. Prime seating is outside on the deck, which has heat lamps, wind guards and a dramatic view across the bay. The focus of the menu is fresh, regional Mexican cuisine. House specialties include grilled seafood and tamales. The basics (rice, beans, margaritas) are also available, and house-made tortillas with salsa are served in ... read more

Good, Not Great – This restaurant is sort of a high class Mexican restaurant, it's not the same food you'd get in another Mexican restaurant. The food here was pretty good and if you're sitting out on the deck you have a great view. However, the food is a bit pricey and the service was mixed.

Below Average – My food was served luke warm & it was very bland! Mexican? I thought Mexican food had flavor! The beans were BAD...Rosarita is better than theirs!

Not for lunch – I've never eaten at a mexican restaurant before where I did not see burritos or carne asada on the menu. I was very, very disappointed in this establishment. My co-workers and I had lunch here on Dec 30 and although the view was beautiful, the food needed major improvement. I have eaten at many places in Mexico and I would have to say that Guaymas is not authentic at all. The food was very bland and the salsas served did not help. The tortillas had a very pasty taste to them and if it wasn't for my margarita,... read more

We left angry – Incredibly disappointing, extremely rude, ridiculously overpriced. Take my advice and don't eat here -- or if you do, be prepared to be talked down to by waiters are above being waiters. In the past this place was fine, but its gone downhill. Bland fajitas -- was too much to ask the waiter to bring salsa or fresh tortillas --somehow he managed to make my mom apologize for asking (b-day lunch)! Crab-from-a-can enchiladas, mediocre mole and an expensive salmon special that resembled salmon jerky. Can't argue th... read more

Doesn't lift up to its promise – My best friend decided to throw a surprised dinner for his girlfriend and I made a reservation for 8 at Guaymas, requesting specifically a table with the view of the bay. The gang arrived at the restaurant with no table set up. Then we were told to wait for 15 minutes and were seated a table inside the dining room with no view. Now this is the incredible part of the story. Two of our friends came somewhat late and had already had a bite. They just wanted to join us on this special birthday ce... read more

High price doesn't mean high quality – This has got to be the most bland mexican food I have ever eaten in my life! To be fair, we gave this restaurant 3 chances and each time we regretted our choice. God forbid you bring a child with you no matter how well behaved, since the snooty waitstaff will gladly stick you in the back every time, and then the only way to get their attention after they bring your food is to send up a signal flare. The beef fajitas were obviously cheap cuts of meat lacking any flavor other than a littl... read more

Mexican Dictatorship – Siting at my reserved table at Guyamas with my girlfiend, on my birthday, eating fried cheese (free with a drink during happy hour), I was asked by a manager to go inside to the (loud, boring and viewless) bar area. Happy hour food is prohibited outside, he told me. In an attempt to palliate his conerns about how much money I would spend, I offered to order my meal right away. He said no, and not wishing to be ordered around that evening, I left. As we waited at the adjacent ferry terminal, an angry ma... read more
