Posts: 3851Don't Eat in The Zona
You guys are killing me with all the Zona eating. Hands down the Zona has the worst food choices in all of Centro. Do yourselves a favor and walk two blocks up to Revolucion and spin the wheel. Most if not all places will be better than the Zona for food. Go outward bound and take a Blue / White taxi in front of CC Club to La Cacho neighborhood $5 and choose one of the places near or on Avenida Brasil.

Cons. Greasy food. Probably best for local stomachs that are used to greasy food.

Posts: 6513Al Capone next to Chicago
Al Capone is next to Chicago, a nice, clean, quiet place with a good-size menu of meats and seafoods.
We had the Bifsteak Racnhero, about 12 ozs top sirloin stir fried with pepper and tomato sauce, served with rice, bean and tortilla, only 70 pesos or $3. 50 for a big sit-down hot meal. While dining, you can also view sexy crotches of Chicago girls dinning in.
It has special dinner deals, like tacos, burritos, beef and chicken soups, full sit down meals for 70 pesos. Their food is fresh and delicious. Even the Mexican American wingmen were impressed.
If you have to stand around for 3 tacos, it's better to have a hot, sit down dinner at Al Capone.

Posts: 584Anyone tried at 580 Av Constitución next to delicias bar. Opposite taco stands.
Name may be El Pico. Not sure since google street view is blocked by tree.
I plan to eat there during my next visit and wanted to know your experience.
I like spicy stews and they had three pots of beautiful stew at the front of the restaurant.
Apparently this restaurant is open 24 hrs.

Posts: 657Senda De Norte Restaurant
Tried the steak and egg breakfast at Senda. First ordered an Agua Fresca Naranja. Essentially orange juice. Waiter brought a basket of donuts with a muffin instead of the usual chips and salsa. Seemed to be fresh and had a good flavor. Asked for tortillas de maiz with my breakfast. Steak was cooked to perfection, with country fried potatoes and eggs sunny side up with frijoles and guacamole. Brought my own Heinz 57 steak sauce and salsa. Waiter supplied an adobo type of hot sauce also. Well worth the 245 pesos plus the cost of the agua fresca but there is no Tropical VIP card discount. Gave the waiter my VIP card but didn't notice a reduction in the price. Suggest you bring your own steak sauce and hot sauce packets from Taco Bell or what is your favorite brand unless you like adobo sauce, which I prefer to pass on. Meal was presented well, quality ingredients, good waiter service but the sauces and salsa supplied are probably not to the average American taste so bring your own. Oddly enough, the best salsa in Tijuana in my experience is right across the street, served in the Mariscos restaurant with their egg breakfasts, but the ingredients are of better quality in Senda De Norte, IMO.

Posts: 7Tijuana 7/7 - 7/12
Was in Tijuana for several days last week and had the chance to try several of the restaurants recommended by the good folks here.
Arrived at Ticuan around noon and went to Caesar's for lunch. Overall, worth visiting at least once, but nothing special. Had the salad, bone marrow and seafood risotto. Both the salad and bone marrow were pretty good, the risotto was cooked well, but the seafood was not fresh. Afterwards, explored around Revolution and hung out at Border Psycho brewery for a bit. I did not watch my water intake and ended up with a hangover, so did not have dinner that day.
Next day, walked to Zone Rio and walked around. Had LionFish for lunch. Overall, decent spot, especially for the price. I ordered a couple of tacos, ceviche Gio, and the tostada sampler. The ceviche was huge and I ended up not being able to finish the tostadas. Everything was quite good, portions were large, pricing wasn't too bad for seafood. The only negative I would say is that the seafood wasn't the freshest. For example, the crab on the tostada tasted bland and did not have the sweetness fresh crab should have. Texture of tuna a bit mushy, etc.
After LionFish, walked to Telefonica Gastro park and got a couple of beers. Did not try any of the food, but looked like a nice spot to chill. It's your typical food market type place, where there's a bunch of vendors with a shared seating.
La Justina. My favorite of the trip. Went for lunch and I guess I was early, no one else was there. I wanted the octopus but I guess they had supply issues that day. Ended up ordering just the Justina salad and Tuna tostada. Both were really good, I would highly recommend the tuna. It was pretty good by itself, but the tostada somehow brought it to a whole another level. Also, their drinks were quite nice too. Bit pricy for Mexico, but I feel it was worth it.
Taco stand by HK. Good tacos, I think this place is notorious enough on the forum already so no need to go into details.
Mr. Pampas. Probably what I was looking forwards to the most before the trip. For me, a bit of a disappointment. Place wasn't bad, especially for the price, $24 for dinner, just the meat quality was meh. Their salad bar was great though, lots of selection besides just salad, more of a sides bar. Favorite cut was the picanha, the ribeye was a travesty, and that's my favorite cut Gristly, too much large pieces of fat, was overcooked and dry / tough. The non beef dishes were ok, tended to be a bit too salty for me. Again, for the price and considering its all you can eat, worth going if you're starving. Personally, I would have preferred a la carte with better quality of meat.
Azuls. Better than I expected. If you're feeling lazy and don't want to go too far from HK, might as well.
Overall, food in Tijuana was pretty good, better than I expected, considering that Tijuana's not really known for food. I would say its a hidden gem, especially if you live in Southern California. If I was in SD, would totally be down to just go down and grab dinner.

Posts: 6513Kim Mon Chinese rest Sushi One
Kim Mon serves pretty good Chinese food. They do a couple good stir-fry dishes.
The portion is huge, almost double normal US. If you just humped a couple girls and sweat like a pig, well, you can eat like one here.
They have no beer, so buy a few from OXXO and drink it with the food.
