- DDillonvipNew York City •7 reviews5.0Dined 7 days agoIt was a pleasant dining experience. We sat between two heat lamps just outside of the restaurant. The special crudo of the day was refreshing and clean tasting. The two-face tostada was also good. The memorable dish of the night was the risotto. It was creamy but not overly rich and the rice had a good bite to it.More infoCrudo Ceviche & Oyster BarPrice: Moderate• Mexican• Little Italy•4.5

- BBryanSan Diego •40 reviews5.0Dined on 17 Nov 2024We've been here many times and the food never disappoints. It's definitely not typical Mexican; though they have tacos and enchiladas, they have pretty gourmet takes on those and other items. Our food this time was really good and well prepared. I had the salmon, which was nicely done and had nice veggies with it. Service was especially good this time. I have been here a few times in the past when the staff was a little stiff, but this time they were all very friendly and helpful. It's a great place for a special occasion.More infoEl AgavePrice: Moderate• Mexican• Old Town•4.7
- JJohn PaulSan Diego •8 reviews5.0Dined on 16 Nov 2024Found this restaurant on OpenTable and was not disappointed. The ambiance is incredible and the food matches it perfectly. However, I think the service, at least our server in particular, was extremely helpful and that really made the whole experience that much better for us.More infoCamino RivieraPrice: Expensive• Contemporary Mexican• Little Italy•4.8
