Restaurante Romesco

Restaurante Romesco Review

Mediterranean bistro meets Baja California ingredients in this restaurant by Javier Plascencia and family, Tijuana's renowned restaurateurs. The varied menu starts with salmon carpaccio or tapas like the spicy shrimp dish cazuelita de gambas and ahi tuna tostadas. Daily happy hours from 3:30 to 6:30 PM and 9 to 10:30 PM bring half-price tapas and drinks. Exquisitely flavored entrées include lobster ravioli in brandy cream sauce and mesquite-grilled duck breast, while desserts run to crepes in tangy cajeta goat milk caramel. Romesco offers a full bar and the rare chance to taste some of the fine wines made in Baja California Norte, Mexico's premier wine country. Service can be leisurely; request the check when you're close to finishing your meal.
