Old Town Mexican Cafe & Cantina

In the Historic Old Town section of San Diego there are many Mexican Restaurants, but Old Town Mexican Cafe and Cantina is probably the local favorite. They have also won the San Diego Restaurant Association Gold Medallion Award 5 times. Old Town Mexican Cafe is in the heart of this Historic section of San Diego. The atmosphere is truly festive Mexican from the Piñatas hanging from the ceiling to the Mariachi guys who will serenade you at your table for tips. The menu includes typical Mexican Food from Quesadillas to Tacos, Burritos, Carne Asada, etc. The portions are large and reasonably priced too.

They also have a Cantina that has a variety of Mexican beers, regular well drinks and frosty Pitchers of Margaritas. They also tout that they serve over 115 premium Tequilas. the Old Town Mexican Cafe and Cantina is open for Breakfast, Lunch, and Dinner. They always have a crowd, so expect to wait for a table, unless you go early.  The Mexican Food served here is worth the wait either way.
