EaterMarch 5, 2014Javier Plascencia's only San Diego-based restaurant; worth a try for a taste of the Baja Med cuisine that the chef has helped to make world-famous. [Eater 38 Member]

Jim BaerApril 11, 2019Loved just about everything, they have a large menu and a Tapas selection. We had our waiter select everything for us. Just Awesome.
- The short ribs tacos are some of the best I've ever had! The lobster in the peppers are heavenly. Tortilla soup is awesome as well. This place has some of the best food in San Diego.
Brian MercadoJuly 31, 2015I've only come here for tapas happy hour on Tuesdays so I can speak for the rest of the menu but everything I've tried is good. Fresh and pretty light on the diet. Gets packed
tricia wangOctober 19, 2013Try Bone marrow taco, ahi Tuna tostada. Lobster ravioli is awesome - they did not skimp on the lobster. Warning - side of guacamole is the size of a single peanut - not worth it at all.
SalAugust 8, 2017good to see jamón, croquetas, chistorra, gambas al ajillo, paella, pulpo... But the tapas are so small and expensive! charging $9 it is FOR FREE in most places in Spain when ordering a drink!!
Vania MorettFebruary 22, 2013Cuando te traigan el pan, pide salsa romesco. When they bring you the bread, ask for salsa romesco. It's the best!

Tuesdays all tapas are 50% off, can't go wrong with that! Usually order about one of each and everything is delish!- The yellow fun tuna is one imofbmy favorite tapas accompanied with the brined garlic!!
James FergusonAugust 13, 2017Explained allergy to cheese for main course. They gave me a complimentary Parmesan salad for appetiser. :(
