This is a great place for an evening out in Old Town San Diego. Authentic food with great tortillas made in house. Highly recommend.

Love the food but the restaurant and especially the bathrooms are in serious need of rehabbing. The supervisors on two occasions have been uber rude, one was a bar manager, the other was on the restaurant side. Service lately has gotten slow and sullen. It is no wonder The Blue Coyote is busier and has a livlier crowd.

Unfortunately our first bad experience. Usually there are just two of us and we eat st the bar but we had a group of 10 snd our waiter was way too busy and a few of us had cold food but management was quick to rectify and provided some credits.. will definitely go back.
