- AAnneSan Diego •1 review5.0Dined 1 day agoAmazing food and service. Well designed space with lots of seating. We ordered crab enchiladas, snapper with plantain crust, chicken mole enchiladas, and table side guacamole. My husband ordered a Don Julio margarita and I got a pomegranate spritzer. Really appreciated how many non alcoholic options they had on the drink menu that weren’t just soda! We will definitely be backMore infoOrtega's A Mexican BistroPrice: Moderate• Mexican• Hillcrest•4.6

- DDonnaSan Diego •14 reviews5.0Dined on 9 Dec 2024We made last minute reservation and enjoyed a quiet lunch. We have always like going to Fred’s as it is a festival environment and fun to be there and hear the music and laughter of others. This time it was quiet due to it being a Monday afternoon and not much going on in the area. The food was very tasty and service great. And it was pleasant and relaxful to enjoy lunch in the unusual quiet environment . DJMore infoCasa De Freds, Tacos y TequilaPrice: Moderate• Mexican• Old Town•4.4
