I've lived in Tijuana for almost 9 years now, and I can honestly say it has some of the best bars and restaurants you'll find anywhere in the world. Being right across the border from San Diego makes it one of the most accessible ways to experience t...

Literally can't go wrong with anything on the menu. I know they say it's boring to order the chicken at a restuarant, but at this one, trust me: order the chicken!
Caccio Pizza & Rotisserie - Hipódromo
My favorite bar in literally the entire world. The vibes (and drinking snacks!) are immaculate.
DANDY DEL SUR
A classy cocktail bar with some seriously skilled bartenders.
Blon
A subterranean jazz bar with live music, tasty drinks, and that perfect, moody jazz-bar vibe.
Tijuana Jazz Club
A piano bar with surrealist vibes.
MALBOUCHE Piano Bar
Retro vibes, great music, old-school DJs, amazing food, and incredible cocktails - with an ocean view!
SOUNDWAVE Vinyl Bar
Home of the original Caesar Salad. Yes, the Caesar Salad was invented in Tijuana. I promise. Look it up!
Caesar's Restaurante
A cocktail bar without all the stuffy, pretentious vibes. A perfect spot to hang with friends.
Aruba Day Drinking Bar
Good beers, good food, in a backyard-style setting.
Public House
An absolute must-try when in Tijuana. A classic spot for Tijuana Tacos. I especially enjoy them late-night, but they are delicious any time of day.
Las Ahumaderas-Tacos El Paisa
A true hidden gem in an unmarked house and no menus. Spanish-style food meant for sharing. A culinary experience.
Casa Cantábrico
A casual dining restuarant serving up some of the best Greek food I've ever had.
Restaurante Dimitris | Donde Comer Rico en Tijuana — Desde 1985
Known for the Mammoth Hot Dog - big enough to feed a small army. Sports bar without the bro-y sports bar feel.
SÓTANO SUIZO, Tijuana - Restaurante Opiniones, Menú y Fotos
Another Tijuana classic bar. The massive back patio often features DJs and dance parties. Or enjoy the classic juke box inside the bar.
La Mezcalera
A classy speakeasy with dark, romantic vibes and delicious, creative cocktails.
Border Bloom Bar
A bar and restaurant that feels like you've taken a step back in time. Live Mariachi and Norteño bands make their way around from table to table.
Los Remedios Tijuana
Where the BajaMed culinary movement orginated. Delicious food, impeccable service.
Restaurant La Querencia BajaMed
Beautiful ambience with delicious food. A perfect spot for a date night or a girl's night out.
Emma Baja French
A no frills dinner spot. My go-to when I want a quick, easy, filling, absolutely wildly delicious meal. This place is always packed, but the wait is quick (and totally worth it).
Cenaduría La Escondida
I dare say this is my favorite restaurant in Tijuana. It is absolutely gorgeous inside and the food is the best around - for either breakfast or dinner.
