One of the great restaurants in Valle de Guadalupe, great location and food. Anywhere you sit in the restaurant you will have a great view of the vineyards and hill tops. The rib eye and carpaccio de calabaza (squash carpaccio) are a must. The chef and owner, Miguel Angel Guerrero, pioneered the Baja Med cuisine. Anything you order will certainly be delicious. There is a playground for kids. The only wine you will find here is L.A. Cetto, as the restaurant is located on the their vineyards. Make sure to make a reservation if you are going on a weekend or during summer.

If you are in the mood for a gelato, this is the place to go. It does get crowded on weekends, so be patient. They also have non dairy and low sugar options. Great place.

Japanese cuisine at its best, enjoy traditional hot plates, not so much sushi. The tempura is great, I would go for the mixed one that has fish, shrimp, vegetables and plantain. The toridon is also delicious.

Good pizza, very inexpensive. No seating area, best if you order your pizza to go. It can get very crowded around lunchtime and at night. Must try the cheese pizza which has goat cheese or the chistorra pizza.

One of the best places in Valle de Guadalupe, a bit pricey but wells worth it. Paulina and Drew (owners) are always great and very attentive. The restaurant is in the middle of El Mogor winery. The rib eye is the best or try one of the pastas. The red wine from El Mogor is great with the rib eye. A must in Valle de Guadalupe.

One of my favorite restaurants in Ensenada! Javier, the owner, is always great and very attentive. You must try the queso fundido (type of fondue with tortillas) and the huitlacoche risotto with lamb. Anything you order here is delicious. Great assortment of wines. The restaurant is located in the garden area of what used to be a house. The front part of the house is now a wine store. Great Place !

Drinks and Nightlife

Iconic place, you have never been to Ensenada until you go to Hussong's Cantina. A place with a lot of history and character, over 120 years old. Have a beer and order a banderita (lime shot then a tequila shot then a sangrita shot in rapid succesion). A must when in Ensenada, don't be alarmed by how full it is, there is always space for one more person.

Located between oxxo and starbucks, by far one of the best breweries in Ensenada, if not all of Baja. This brewery has won best beer in Mexico two times. Cool place with good food (try the fries), no reservations and it does get crowded fast, so be sure to arrive early.
