- SabinaBib This charming restaurant is the full-service offshoot of local culinary legend Sabina Bandera's acclaimed mariscos cart, La Guerrerense, located across the street; founded in 1960, and thrust into the spotlight over the years by Ms. Bandera's creativity. The mouthwatering tostadas offered here at Sabina are identical to those served at the cart and include the version spread with bacalao ceviche and heaped with tender, chopped octopus. Hot items are a bonus here, as in the pozole mariscos. The delightful bowlful features a caldo colorado broth stocked with an abundance of seafood, hominy and d80m
- La ConcheriaBib La Concheria is located at Plaza Santo Tomás, once a winery in the center of Ensenada and dating back to 1911.

- Casa MarceloBib Casa Marcelo's welcoming facade is enhanced with a flourish of bougainvillea, while the dining area is a courtyard shaded by wood slats and dense trees. This local favorite is owned by Marcelo Castro, a fourth-generation cheesemaker for Ramonetti cheeses, produced east of Ensenada in the Valle de Ojos Negros. It's a popular spot for breakfast with a menu that features local ingredients from the ranch, including the artisanal cheese used to garnish the signature chilaquiles. Come afternoon, lunch items are available and worth sticking around for. The tostada de camaron is a lovely balance of fr824m
- HumoySalBib The Hussong family is well known in the Ensenada area for their long-running Sano's steakhouse. Located just next door, this sleek box of a dining room bears its own distinct profile. A white tiled open kitchen and bar area are fronted by tables and concrete flooring. The bar menu is displayed on a wall-mounted letterboard and offers local beers and cocktails like the mezcal sour.The menu is concise, focused on seafood, and is impressively prepared. Sashimi, tiradito and oysters are nice precursors to fresh pasta with shrimp, pizza with octopus or the very clever and highly popular tuna al pas3.0km
- Tacos Mi Ranchito El Fenix Tacos Mi Ranchito El Fenix is a streetside kiosk done up in white and red tile. This perch offers a handful of counter seats, as well as two tables off to the side. The counter surrounds the prep area where one corner is devoted to the frying of the fish fillets for the signature taco here, the taco pescado. This crispy, delicious treat is served unadorned and invites dressing up from the various garnishes.709m
- COMAL Restaurante This all-day restaurant is located in the heart of trendy Plaza Santo Tomás. Under the soaring warehouse ceilings, high-top bar seating wraps around a small open kitchen where chefs regularly press and griddle tortillas on a small comal. From casual lunches to heartier dinners, regional inspiration is far-ranging, though Oaxaca is a frequent focus (think assorted moles, crispy tlayudas and warm tetelas). Chocolate flan with salted toffee caramel makes for a lovingly sweet, light finale. Service is notably friendly and accommodating.741m
- Madre Comfortable and amiable, Madre is from chefs and partners Miguel Bahena and Carolina Verdugo.

- Manzanilla Manzanilla offers a truly worthwhile dining experience brought to you by chefs and partners Benito Molina and Solange Muris. A local favorite, the establishment feels like a world unto itself, located within a gated area and unwinding into a prettily arranged courtyard area and spaciously arranged dining rooms anchored by an ornate, carved wood bar. Speaking of drinks, an extensive selection of classic cocktails is on offer, as well as wines from the Valle de Guadalupe.The dishes lean simple but remain elevated and refined, showcasing a mastery of flavor and impeccable quality with dishes like1.0km
- Tacos Marco Antonio Partially open-air with concrete flooring and a metal roof, the industrial bones of this taqueria harken back to this setting's roots as a fish canning warehouse started by Marco Antonio's father in 1965.

- El Paisa Serving tacos and tortas, and focused on adobada or asada, El Paisa is a tasty taco recommendation. The crew is always busy grilling beef and green onions, and roasting spice-rubbed pork in a vertical rotisserie at this tidy spot with a few tables. It's all supremely fresh, as everything is hot off the grill here. You can even watch as staff members slice the roasting meat right into your tortilla. Dress with your choice of salsas, then add chopped onion, cilantro and other flourishes to taste.1.6km
