We decided to try this place out because the decor looked cool. It looks like a cabin. There is a fireplace, vintage typewriters and jukebox as well as birds. The food sucked. The prices range from 15 - 27 dollars. The service was horrible. It was so bad that when we attempted to pay there was no one to take... More

Nice decor, helpful and prompt service. Cater to vegetarians, and have a cool birdcage inside the place. They have a lady that makes tortillas inside the restaurant.

El NIdo has been around for quite sometime. The food is very good. The rustic atmosphere is very artistic.(I love the bathroom. It's a work of art) Try the venison burritos, their great! This place is unique.

This used to be a good restaurant, but my last 2 visits were disasters. The food was absolutely cold and the service was rude and rushed. The manager did nothing to help with a truly "who cares?" type of attitude. I went back after my lousy experience hoping that it had been an anomaly, but with the same results. This... More

Great place in the main town of Rosarito. Great service, great food and beautiful atmosphere. Bean soup and salad served with entrees are awesome.

We frequently eat here. Love the food, especially breakfast. The bacon is awesome. Sunday's get really busy and they seem to get mixed up when seating people that have been waiting so you need to watch for a table to open then approach it. Don't wait for them to find you! Love the decor which looks like they've recycled old... More

They have their own farm and raise the beef, duck, pheasant, etc. served at the restaurant. One of the oldest restaurants in Rosarito which says a lot.

Sit out on one of the 2 patios for a real treat. Take in the aroma of burning oak which is what all the food is cooked over. Birds and plants everyone. Nice place to have a cold cerveza and a bite to eat. Everything is inexpensive in Rosarito. Enjoy!
