  Came here for a party on a sunday afternoon. They have a fairly large, festive dining area, and an equally festive outside dining area that is fenced in. For our party, we were a group of about 60 in one side of the outside dining area. Food was served buffet style, more than enough for everyone, and our area was closed off with dividers. I believe it cost $300 site fee and $17.99 per person.
  
  The food was good and the vibe was relaxed. I did notice that it can be busy because there were groups waiting for tables.
  
  Parking sucks though. They have a private parking lot, but the spots are soooo narrow and compact.
  
  Not a bad place for a large party get together.

  Well the food and service were great, but the people next to me got their car stolen right at the entrance. It's ok the lady's were very nice about it. There is no video cameras at the front door
  To show any proof. We Don't mind. She called
  The police. They will help. We like this place.

  We go to San Diego at least once or twice every year and just found this great authentic Mexican food restaurant in "old town."  The atmosphere is wonderful and they had mariachi both times that we've been.  My Carne Asada Plate was perfect.
  
  I always can tell the quality of a Mexican restaurant by the chips and salsa before the meal.  This place has perfect chips & salsa!

  This place was PACKED on the Saturday night we went. A popular spot to celebrate birthdays. Instead of waiting approximately 40 mins, we opted to sit at the bar. Kelsey there was terrific. My Spicy Cucumber Margarita was outstanding, I couldn't get enough of it.
  
  My mid scale review is due to the inconsistency of my entree. My Ensenada Fish Tacos were all over the place. The battered taco on the first taco was not well seasoned, very bland. The second fish was crispy and fried to perfection. Unfortunately the corn tortilla had been soaked in the bean juice that fell out of the tortilla shell. It was so soggy I couldn't pick it up without it falling apart, less calorie intake I suppose. I imagine on a good day the course is delicious, sadly it wasn't all there for me. The flan was a nice ending though, thick && rich.
