About Tamarindo Del Mar

Tamarindo Del Mar offers a fresh take on Baja Mexican cuisine, featuring a creative food and drink menu that delights customers. The cocktails, including the standout lavender margarita and a seasonal Blackberry margarita, are amazing and refreshing. The restaurant tends to be busy on Friday nights, but the staff remains friendly and attentive. Popular dishes include the carnitas fajita plate, crispy zucchini tacos, and the highly praised carne asada with green sauce. The fish tacos are consistently enjoyed, with many customers surprised by the generous amount of mahi mahi and its perfect cooking. The elote appetizer is excellent, with a sweet-spicy vibe, while the chicken mole, including the Oaxacan Fig Mole, is noted for its lovely flavor and well-balanced ingredients.

The restaurant is dog-friendly, offering a special menu for pups, and prices are reasonable for the quality and portions served. Despite some background music, the lively atmosphere creates a fun experience. Customers appreciate the lovely aesthetic and location, with outdoor patio tables featuring mini fireplaces for a cozy dining experience. The outdoor patio is covered and spacious, making it an ideal spot for families or groups. The wait staff does a great job of accommodating requests, including vegetarian options. The food is very fresh tasting, and there are lots of chips and salsa on the table, which guests enjoy. The cheerful server and nice house music contribute to a pleasant atmosphere, and the birthday banuelos are highly recommended for a sweet treat. While some reviews mention that the flavor could be improved compared to other Mexican food in San Diego, the overall vibe, attentive service, and outdoor seating make Tamarindo Del Mar a place worth visiting.

Serious scumbags here. They verbally attack guests for no reason. Rude as hell.

Queso fundido the elites and the steak plate

Amazing lunch for the whole family.
