We put off a visit to this popular spot for a long time because of the noise coming from inside--and even from the patio--as we walked past. When we finally tried it for dinner, we found the noise deafening (both music and conversation), as expected. (The patio is a little less noisy than inside.) The service was very friendly and fast. Sadly, the food was mediocre. Being so close to the border, San Diego should offer countless opportunities for excellent Mexican food, but this isn't true, in our experience. Standards and expectations seem to be higher in Phoenix and New Mexico (Santa Fe, Albuquerque) than in San Diego. At Baja Betty's, the food is average American-Mexican fare, at best.
This is a MUST when in San Diego
If you are looking for the chillest, friendliest, fun loving atmosphere with bomb food for great prices this is your place! Felt right at home when greeted at the door and the waiter made us feel like we were dining with friends!
Seriously EAT HERE!!! ....The end.
If I could rate this restaurant higher than the 5, I would do that. We were directed to the restaurant by a local person in San Diego and the restaurant turned out to be a great find. The food choice is wide and was absolutely delicious. The ambience was great.
