The wine selection is awesome most of all the Mexican Wine labels except Vinicultores Carnalla-Villafan, and the meats are grilled to your perfect request.

We have been trying different places to eat, and of course Sano's came up. We were surprised by the flavor and quality of the establishment. This is not typical Ensenada restaurant. It was a short walk by our Hotel, but we chose to take a cab. It was like we had stepped into a five star restaurant in San Diego.... More

Service was great, very attentive staff, good wine selection, mostly local wine and also a fully... More

Unbelievable steaks from local beef. Extremely tasty and better than most U.S. steakhouses. They have a beautiful wine selection as there are 70 vinyards in this area of Baja. I recommend Monte Xanic Malbec - excellant. This is apricey place for a lovely semi-formal dinner.

We were able to have a diviner here and it was fairly good, service a little slow, and they kept forgetting some things but they had a good attitude trying to keep up.

This beautiful restaurant also has a very cozy and delightful outdoor garden area that provides a perfect setting for starting the day with their breakfast menu. Served from 7 am... More

Expensive for Ensenada but well worth it. Clean and delicious. Service is great too! Lamb rack is beautiful and also the fillet mingon and the clam chowder soup is... More

Filet Mignon, garlic mashed potato and vegetables, were right on the money and right on the price. Wonderful home made soup and great salad. Too bad they changed their "Blue Cheese Tower' I was a little disappointed. Just not the same without the tower of blue cheese guys!
