All this in a cozy and relaxed environment, surrounded with Moroccan Lanterns and colorful soft pillows and drapery.

Valle de Guadalupe

About the restaurant

King and Queen Cantina brings a Latin flavor to Valle de Guadalupe, Mexico. Our colorful skull décor makes for a Dia de Los Muertos theme all year long. Prepare to “fiesta like there’s no mañana” while you pull up a leather bar stool to the natural wood downstairs bar accessorized with flat-screen TVs for your viewing pleasure. Then, strut across the checkered tile to upstairs where you’re transported to mood lighting and an essentially outdoor bar. Take in the San Diego skyline as you sip hand-crafted cocktails at this modern Mexican cantina.

Valle de Guadalupe

About the restaurant

Our gastronomic proposal endures the use of Mexican products, and local and seasonal ingredients from Valle de Guadalupe and the coast of Ensenada. The seasons of these products are what set the tone for the creation of new dishes.
The inspiration comes from Mexican culture and cuisine, adding creativity and openness to techniques and preparations from other cultures, resulting in a menu designed to be enjoyed by all.

About the restaurant

Bistró Sin Fronteras.
Les comparto los sabores que he recolectado del océano, el valle y la granja. Combinaciones que te harán viajar a rincones del mundo sin moverte de la mesa, desde delicias del mar con los mariscos más espectaculares, pastas hechas al momento con la frescura que mereces, los sabores propios de la granja, con los cortes más jugosos y exquisitos.

One of my favorite restaurants in Tijuana. The food is always great and the service is excellent as well. We had the "Jamon Hiberico" and the tomato sup for appetizer - both excellent choices. The recommended and gave us a taste of a Spanish Syrah wine, which was so good that we ordered a bottle (ended up being two). The party of six ordered different dishes and all of them were excellent. We split the aged ribey stake and the truffle pasta - what an amazing combination. A great overall evening in a a great restaurant.
