One of the best margaritas I have had. My husband and I wanted Mexican food like my moms house. Tried this place out unbelievably good. This is not your American style Mexican food like Old Town. This is legit Puerto Nuevo style.

I was disappointed with my meal at Ortega’s. Although the restaurant had good reviews on Open Table, the Puerto Nuevo lobster was terrible, very overcooked and dry. Even the rice, beans and tortillas were tasteless, pretty bad for a Mexican restaurant. I would not recommend this restaurant.

We went to Ortegas to take advantage of restaurant week in San Diego. What a great deal, we ordered the full lobster and the lobster with shrimp. The food tasted great and the service was timely. The only down part was the table location in the middle of the room next to the kitchen which made it hard to be intamite for date night. Other than the table location, we really enjoyed eating here and we will be back.

The Restaurant Week special was a very good deal; all of the food was very good. I had the half lobster and shrimp and my friend had the half lobster and beef (flat iron steak). I had salad and my friend had the soup, and we both had the churros & chocolate sauce for dessert. Service was very good also.

I love this restaurant, and we enjoyed our special celebration. The lobster was a bit dry and overdone and the noise was loud even for a Sunday afternoon. Could be because of Restaurant Week. Note, that the Tortilla soup is very spicy!

Food was yummy but nothing extraordinary. The margaritas were the main reason for the visit since we were going on a double date and my friends love sexy drinks. The margaritas were delicious. The restaurant was a lovely establishment. We booked our reservations a week or two in advance. With the reservation I was hoping to have a nicer seating area. They placed us right next to the kitchen even-though there were 20 other open tables available. I did not ask to be reseated because I thought there was a reason... but later found out they just put us at an unfavorable spot I guess by chance. Still not sure. The wait staff wasn’t as attentive as I would have appreciated, but they weren’t bad. Nice spot, decent food, great drinks, but probably won’t be a repeat customer.

Excellent margaritas - my Mezcal margarita had smoked salt to enhance the flavor. Chips were paper thin & fresh. Guac was traditional. Salsa was unusual and delicious. Two fish dishes (mahi & snapper) were very well prepared, healthy and flavorful. Flour tortillas were see-through. Portions were normal, not overwhelming. Table & leather bench were the most comfortable we've experienced in a long time, and it was quiet enough to talk. Great value: appetizer, two drinks, two mains + generous tip = $114. Only one downside: we look for healthier options, and there were only a few.

my wife went there for our 42nd anniversary. She wanted lobster Puerto Nuervo style. she had the whole 1-1/4 lb and i had 1/2 lobster and 1/2 shrimp on skewer. We were amazed at the size of lobster! They cooked it perfectly! Very sweet. The server was above and beyond his ability. This restaurant was better than going to Old Town. We will be back soon. Highly recommend.

Tried Ortega's for the first time. As usual as other restaurants say they have lobster like Puerto Nuevo. I have to say was impressed. The food was delicious, the ambiance was really nice, not too loud and not that whispery place to have to watch how loud people get. A little hole in the wall but I will definitely go again.

The food was mediocre at best. The cost was a bit extreme. We had the ceviche which was rubbery and bland, tasted store bought and previously frozen. The “steak” tacos (3)for $22 were basically a flavorless carne asada with toppings normally found on a fish taco. It seemed like a family style restaurant charging gourmet prices. The one bright spot was the service and the guacamole, made at the table…. Sometimes I don’t understand how these places get such high reviews…

We were craving Puerto Nuevo lobster and too lazy to make the drive across the border to Baja. The next best option? Ortega's in Hillcrest. We are crazy for the deep fried Lobster. We love the original restaurant in Puerto Nuevo, especially the fact that the lobster comes in three different sizes. Our service was excellent. The food decent, considering we are not in Lobster season. Our only complaint? The tortilla soup was lukewarm! Still the meal was worth the drive from Los Angeles. Next time we head further south for the real deal.
