I was very pleasantly surprised with how wonderful both the food and the service were for my dinning experience!! Thomas at the front desk had suggested the Filet Mignon and I really questioned how good it could be? It was outstanding!! In comparison to a true authentic steak house I would still give it a 7 out of 10! For overall quality and taste no matter where I was ordering, I would give it a 10/10!! The Brussel Sprouts where amazing too. Great flavor and crispiness. My wait staff team to include Nicole who greeted me and Dane who took over server duties, they were top notch!! Friendly, attentive, accommodating and a pleasure to dine with. The atmosphere in the restaurant is wonderful too. Overall I would give them a 10/10. Do stay and try this restaurant!! I heard they have a great Breakfast Burrito too!!

Please don’t be fooled by this establishments overall ratings. I’ll break it down by category. Note this was for dinner coming in around 7p after the Del Mar races finished.

Food: 2.5 – We tried the Turkey Club and California Burrito. Both were just ok and nothing to write home about. Turkey club was supposed to have bacon but instead they substituted ham. I assume this is because they ran out of bacon?? Regardless it didn’t have alot of flavor and I was forced to add mustard and mayo to make it edible. The California burrito was also just ok. It was loaded on French fries and very little meat. I thought it needed salsa but was told they don’t have any and gave me Tabasco.

Service: 0 star. When we came in, the place was nearly empty. We asked to sit together and we had to put our own tables together. Because we had a decent sized group (12) I did expect to have to wait for our food. It took almost 1hr after ordering! We didn’t get our food until almost 815. Drink service was terrible. We were looking for our server on many occasions as she would disappear randomly and never checked in on us. Drinks were not refilled timely at all and at one point, 1 member of our party went up to get the pitcher of water and refilled our glasses. Had the waitress been on top of her game, our party easily would have had 2-3 drinks each. Instead most of us had 1 and if lucky got a 2nd. Very disappointed with their service. To top it off, Nicole (our server) had 0 personality. She auto added 20% tip and then tricked many of us into adding additional tip because she wouldn’t provide the itemized receipt until after we paid. Very shoddy business here.

Overall: Save yourself the headache. You may be tired after the races but do yourself a favor and go somewhere else. In fact, I’d even go to Dennys over this place. There are plenty of other local businesses to eat that are within 10m drive (Lyft / Uber) that offer much better food and service.

At 9pm I place a to go order and waited in the dining area. The food took 45 minutes to arrive. The $14 chicken sandwich had a patty on it that was paper thin and the same as you’d get on an elementary school lunch. For a kids menu item for $7, sure. For $14 they should at least try to use some real chicken. The bun is good and the sauce is good. Maybe opt for the burger instead.

Our experience at this so-called Mexican “cantina” was disappointing from start to finish.

First, they didn’t even have a blender to make a basic margarita. Several of our drinks (just sodas, not cocktails) were forgotten, three in total, and when they finally arrived, they took forever. The server never checked in on us, didn’t offer refills, and seemed genuinely annoyed by our presence, as though we were a burden.

The food was another issue. The “shareable” menu was completely misleading. For example, sopes were listed under shareables (plural), but when it finally arrived late, it was just a single sope, priced at $18. That kind of presentation felt deceptive.

To make matters worse, the bill was not transparent at all. A gratuity had been added without any explanation, and we unknowingly left an additional tip on top of it. When we politely asked about a breakdown, the server snapped that we’d only receive it after paying. It felt dismissive and unprofessional.

Overall, the food was late, the drinks were delayed, the service unfriendly, and we didn’t feel welcomed to stay, despite it not being close to closing time. Between the lack of transparency, the misleading menu, and the unprofessional service, this was one of the least welcoming dining experiences I’ve had.

Hotel staff said bar/restaurant was open until 11, but when we got there at 10, the bartender made it seem like they were closing soon. Then when food arrived she gave us plastic cutlery and when we asked about it it, she said all regular cutlery was dirty!!!???? Plastic cup at bar for water too. Felt like she wanted us gone.

Food preparations are nice quality for a hotel restaurant, showing some care in the presentation and in house-making their sauces.

Beautiful outdoor space, lots of seating and we had great service.
$30 for a charcuterie board with 4 crackers and 3 pieces of crustini is a on the steep side though, but they def aren’t shy about the Bleu cheese

The food and service were outstanding! The breakfast potatoes were particularly exceptional. I also had dinner there once and enjoyed the wings, which were very good. All the servers were friendly and pleasant. I would expect nothing less from a Hilton restaurant.
