Old Town Tequila Factory Restaurant & Cantina is a vibrant restaurant perched on a hill overlooking historic Old Town San Diego. The interior is beautifully decorated, reflecting the rich culture of Mexico, and the outdoor seating area offers a wonderful view with twinkling lights and comfortable seating. The service has room for improvement, as some guests have noted mixed experiences with staff, including a waitress who was perceived as unfriendly. However, other customers have praised the attentive service from staff like Alice, who ensured that glasses were always full during long gatherings.
The food is delicious, with options that include fresh guacamole, chicken tortilla soup, a 3 item combo with carnitas enchilada, chicken taquitos, and shredded beef crispy taco, and a deep-fried ice cream for dessert. Many reviews highlight the large servings, with the carnitas enchiladas and steak and shrimp fajitas receiving particular praise. While the overall dining experience is enjoyable, it is important to note that the outdoor seating can get quite loud due to large parties, and requests for indoor seating may not always be accommodated. Additionally, some families have found the restaurant not very kid-friendly, citing a lack of activity sheets and appropriate cups for children.
Overall, Old Town Tequila Factory offers an authentic Mexican dining experience with excellent food and beautiful views, but it could benefit from more consistent service and accommodations for families.
