Casa De Reyes Restaurant

This review is strictly for the restaurant.We had an absolute blast while we were dining here. Overall, it felt like we were transported somewhere in Mexico and had a great lunch.I put us on the list and gave them my number. They said it was a 15 minute wait, which was pretty accurate. We used the time to look around in the shops. They texted me when our table was ready and we were seated immediately when we went up to the hostess.Our server was quick to get to us. Chips and salsa were good. We would have gladly filled up on chips and salsa alone! They got us our drink orders pretty quickly and our food came out at a reasonable time. We all enjoyed our food. I absolutely loved the chicken mole. We also had musicians stop by at our table and we all really enjoyed the entire experience.

My husband and I go here with my family every time we are in San Diego. My grandparents started bringing my dad here when they lived in San Diego. My husband and I spent our honeymoon in San Diego and we had to make this one of our dinner night spots. We called ahead and made reservations stating that we were on our honeymoon. When we showed up they had a beautiful table set for us near one of the heater lamps with 2 small bottles of champagne. We ate like royalty, and they still brought us an on the house dessert. They treated us so well I cannot even begin to say how special they made it for us. Will always have my business.

Favorite Mexican food in restoran in Old Town San Diego. Great fantastic and authentic food and atmosphere. Large Margaritas. So delicious. No reservation, just get there, take your phone number and text you when a table is available. Live music. EXTRA!!!

Delicious food, fast friendly service. When we checked our party of 7 in they told us that it would be a 20-30 minute wait but we walked around the shop's and they called us after 10 minutes. Food came out fast and hot, very attentive server checking our glasses, chips and salsa.

We had Margarita, guacamole and few main courses. The quality was great, tasty and so delicious. Service was great, Hector was very professional and very helpful! Great experience and highly recommend this place!

Great service. Their enchiladas Suizas (tomatillo sauce) are delicious! Endless chips and salsa too! Their service is always amazing ♡

Amazing dinner here with a few colleagues. Got the margarita pitchers, Molchayete del mar and everything was extremely delicious. Can't wait to come back and try more stuff from the menu!

I’ve been here a handful of times and it never disappoints. Though it’s always been busy when I’ve gone, they have great fluidity on getting you seated quickly. The staff are wonderfully attentive and friendly. Last night my husband and I arrived ten minutes before the kitchen closed and they seated us right away. Even though we were pressed for time, our waiter was incredibly kind and made sure we had time to order and was so helpful. We quickly chose what we wanted and within 15 min our food had come out. It. Was. Spectacular. Everything was absolutely flavorful and we were able to enjoy every bit of it. The Riviera Maya (something like that lol) margarita was fabulous, too! I’m so glad we ordered just one! The carnitas dinner plate and the chicken molé plate were some of the best we’ve ever had. We will definitely keep this a usual for when we visit SD! Disclaimer: we’re on our honeymoon so everything is pretty much blissful to us at the moment.

Great location. The live music is amazing! Food is decent. Overall an awesome place to go to if you're in Old Town!

Great food! Big plates so be hungry or take some home. Margaritas are a little pricey but taste good. Wander around all the shops of handmade Mexican items.

Scrumptious food in an ideal setting with live music and a wonderful wait staff! Relax and soak up the picturesque atmosphere while experiencing the perfect meal!

Located in Historic Old Town San Diego, Casa de Reyes is a great place to dine. I loved the Mexican themed ambience, the staff was friendly, the food came out quickly and it tasted great. My favorite part was the margarita pitchers. Parking can be slightly challenging because of the area but worth checking out in San Diego.

Great place, Great atmosphere and beautiful work of art. Very true to its traditions this part of San Diego is Alive and Popping this is a must see attraction. Safe and Family oriented for any culture. The shops, the food the vibe is definitely worth the stroll to downtown SD.

We all (7 of us) really loved the place! Food was great. We had enchiladas, mole, tilapia, shrimp and burritos. The chips and salsa was top notch - one of the all time best we’ve had. The flan was superb! It had an almond flavor twist to it that the typical flan does not. I savored every bite of the flan. Will visit again next time we have a chance.

I never eat a so good nachos of my life. The place is really cozy and relaxing, and u are not cold because they have fire lamps. 😊😉👍

What a great place with great food. I love sitting in the patio. Great service.

We had the best margarita ever at the bar, and the staff was so friendly. Will definitely return

Great gluten free food and large Margaritas. Menu clearly marked for gluten free, vegitarin, and vegan. Lots of meat options with beef, pork, fish, shrimp, chicken,etc. Comfortable seating for one to a large party. Good music and helpful staff. Check in at the desk and they can usually seat you right away. If there is a wait you can wander around the grounds and they will text you when the table is ready. Parking lot is just to the south, though it is full by noon on the weekends.

Great food, drinks and service. Armadillo shrimp is tasty.

Old Town San Diego is a wonderful place to visit. Historic and a nice family destination. When there, plan on dinner at Casa Dr Reyes. Really good, authentic Mexican cuisine with a fun ambience. Live music in the evening's. Enjoy!!

Great food, super nice staff members, regularly good ambience. They charge convenient prices and the food quality is fantastic. Fantastic work.

You're mainly paying for the ambiance as it is a tourist trap. My chicken burrito was lukewarm and the margarita was more on the watery side. Yet service was attentive.

Regarded as among the best Mexicans restaurants in old town it offers an extensive menu, and modest drink choices.. Always had a large crowd but large enough to handle its popularity and the live stage shows in the center court is an excellent touch. Very entertaining.

Better than tourist food. We had a bean tostada, crisp beef taco, and chicken soup. Non of it was overloaded with cheese like the other restaurants in Old Town. The tortillas they use are light and easy to eat. The meat in the taco had a good flavor, the soup was good but not my favorite, I like a chicken soup with a clear broth. I had a stressful flight back home and needed to stop for a margarita. We walked through part of Old Town, and then to Casa de Reyes. We were seated near the stage, which was very nice, we like the band they use. After dinner, we stayed for the show, it was a very nice night, oh and the margarita hit the spot. We will go again.

Outstanding service from David N.;, had the best Cadillac Margaritas, veggie cactus platter, combo plate and fajitas. Reasonably priced food for a tourist location.

Very tasty. Staff is nice. Prices very affordable. No reservation, just get there, they take your phone number and text you when a table is available.The margarita with raspberries is great

The food here is amazing! If you are in old Town this is a must stop. Just walk past the other places and go here. The food has been awesome and so good each time we go. The margaritas are fabulous!!! Also the massive margarita is worth the price! Not only is it good, it is not watered down.

Great Mexican food! Good value for the money - many good menu choices. Can't go wrong with anything on the menu.

The atmosphere is open, inviting and entertaining. The food was very, very fresh and the service just as wonderful. Family friendly or a romantic getaway...this is a spot for great food and a taste of the best of Mexico.

We went out for dinner after a couples seminar and we had a blast. Everyone enjoyed the time great environment excellent customer service. Casa De Reyes has been one of my favorite places in San Diego by far, there's live music the majority of the time, had an awesome time with our group and this place played a big roll this night thak you guys!

Best carnitas I ever ate. Not everything was top notch, but the presentation was superb. Handmade tortillas were a plus.

Lovely place. Pretty lively with good music and great food. Must visit if you want to sit down, relax and enjoy.Came during the veteran's day weekend and the decorations were pretty.

Beautiful outdoors seating with lots of old town flair. This restaurant is on the expensive end, so expect $16 for a basic combo plate with enchiladas, tacos, etc & over $12 for a margarita; however, the Chicken Tortilla Soup is excellent tho a bit spicy. Portions are large which meant sharing the combo platter with a friend was an easy way to make the entrees more affordable.

Amazing mexican food! Staff was very attentive to my family having a large dinner party here. The experience made for a very fun evening.

So delicious! Fastest service ever! Warm chips with salsa. Full bar. Very friendly and beautiful staff! The restaurant itself was so cool. The decor was beautiful. One of my favorite restaurants.

We had an amazing experience, great ambient, beautiful surroundings, fun live music and good food!! Will definitely be back😊

Favorite Mexican food in Old Town. We always bring friends and family from out of town here. The out door style is lovely and the I always love the live music. The portions are huge and food is well priced. The alcohol is expensive though. Great place to visit and just enjoy the day.

Yay! We sat next to a fire pit; that set the vibe for our group on a chili San Diego day. The salsa was great, just a little kick with the seasoned chips. Everyone in our group loved the chicken nachos with the black beans on them...yummy! In our party...bean & cheese burrito, combo fajitas (he said the steak was awesome), cheese enchilada, and tacos. Needless to say, we are headed back to Casa de Reyes on our next SD visit!

The portions here are incredibly large! It's a bit of a wait time but it gave us a chance to explore the town until our table was ready. The chips are served warm and freshly made and the salsa was excellent. The tostada salad was delicious but definitely gets soggy quickly. The ceviche is legit, wow, by far a popular around the table. Service is slow as the space is quite large.

This spot clearly knows how to take care of their clients. Regularly with a helpful demeanor. The food is affordably priced, regularly yummy and neat.

The best Mexican food I have had. Good margaritas

A magical experience! Excellent food and service. Amazing music and ambience

Good food. Pretty busy place, but very efficient seating system. Wait staff was kind and knowledgeable. Could hear live music close by. Micheladas were a refreshing addition to lunch.

Really good food. Friendly staff is eager to help with questions about the entrees. The Chili relleno was AMAZING!

Very authentic Mexican food. Loved the service and the ambiance was good. Definitely worth checking this out

Great food and atmosphere. The food was fantastic and authentic. Live music and very attentive waiter.

This place is one of our favorites! The food is delicious and the service is always amazing. They said it would be an hour wait but it ended up being only about 30 minutes. My family eats at this restaurant every time we visit San Diego.

Good restaurent but it was a long wait on weekends. Though its little expensive Food was amazing. Liked their chips and salsa. All the dishes we tried were tasty. Authentic Mexican feel and taste. Recommend this place, worth being there.

The most reputable restaurant in my town. I found this incredible place by accident, and I was totally lucky to find this place for my birthday event. Their staff was on time and very clean. They really look good on their uniforms. The quality of service they provided was excellent! No hidden charges compared to others. Thank you so much to all of you! Kudos!

Its outside with heaters. Night bring jacket. Reasonable prices. Good food. No wait. Live music.
