Just went to La Estancia, hope I spelled it right, and it was wonderful. Met some people working there I use to know from El Nido, they jumped ship!
Also love Sussanh's(sorry for killing your name)located in El Nido Plaza and it was fabulous as always. I was told the new French Bistro is really good by the staff at La Estancia and my real estate agent.
Anyone have any other favorites, besides El Nido, and Los Pelicanos??????? Los Pelicanos manager is a jerk, and I have been going there for 20 years. I have now found other places to eat.......even tho' the Perez family our my friends, they need to check out the attitude of some of the folks they are hiring. The other night my steak was burned at El Nido, no excuse.
Would like to hear of some new places to go. Is Popotla still in business????? Use to go there, and Puerto Nuevo, and La Fonda.
Any suggestions are welcomed!!

I don't have an answer for you, but I want to add that if anyone knows any Thai or East Indian restaurants, I'd appreciate it. I love Mexican food, but I like alot of variety.

I like Vinces. Good lobster at good prices. Block from El Nido Popotla is still there. Very crowded but still good. La Fonda overpriced for me.

How many pesos is the lobster and what size are they?

One of my favorite Italian restaurants, maybe of all time, is in Rosarito: That's Amore! The food has always been good, and sometimes extraordinary. One time I had a sea bass wrapped in proscuitto served on an eggplant tapanade that was one of the best dishes I've had in my life.
I lived for a time in Ciudad Juarez, which is gritty and often scary. Sometimes I'll talk about some of my stories from that time in a public place and look around and see absolute shock on people's faces. I think I got used to it. And I know my friends have gotten used to my fringe stories. ANYWAY, my refuge in CJ at the time was this great chain restaurant: VIPS. And they have one in Rosarito. Go for breakfast and have an amazing juice and maybe molettes. Then, I dare you, try to find a spec of dirt in the restaurant. How do they keep anything that clean and shiny?
Love La Estancia too.
Also like Dragon Del Mar for Chinese. But they have weird tasting tea. The decor is incredible. I think it's worth it to go to this restaurant just to see the decor. You wonder who on earth spent all that money on a Chinese restaurant in Rosarito.
Haven't found any Thai or Indian food either and I miss it as well. We go to San Diego every couple of weeks and so a Thai restaurant is on our list when we do.
Working on a run down of taco stands in Rosarito, if anybody is interested. My son lives at those places, I swear.

Yes Thats Amore is great. I live right across the street from it so get to eat there a lot. They have good specials also. Some menu items are pricy. Also you can get a great Lobster dinner at Vinces for around $20.00 usd. I like their crab legs (about 5.00 USD for a bunch of them) and they have lobster burritos for (about 8.00 usd) that are really good. They have thier own fish market a few doors down so that is why their seafood is so fresh. Many great places to eat here in Rosarito.

I really like eating "El Jefe" tacos. Delicious and lots of meat and toppings. You don't have to eat six to get full...

Ditto. Siete Mares has good Mexican dishes as well. Friend of Dorothy.
Don't know if there's a Flauti Pizza in Rosarito, but if there is, try it if you haven't already tried Flauti Pizza in Tj. Excellent pizza sauce!

Both restaurants are on main drag. That Amore is 2 or 3 block from the Waldos on the same side of road. Qunita Del Mar Hotel is right across the street. Vinces is further down on the other side of street. It is before El Nido's. It looks like an old western building. You will enjoy both......
