When this restaurant opened several years back, they ran out of food st 4pm and had to close. They are still as good as the day they opened. Great Margaritas and large-size portions. Salada are great.

Stopped here because we missed all the rest of the Mexican restaurants in town. Decor was nice, a little outdoor patio and a colorful inside interior. However, service was slow. Took forever to get drinks, chips and dip and our soup appetizer and then the main course arrived before we could finish our soup. Kind of a jammed up service... More

Reviewed several years ago. This was my favorite Mexican restaurant in Ramona and one of the few "sit down" restaurants worth a visit. In the years since, the food quality is inconsistent, the meat (particularly the beef) is very bad and the prices are very expensive for Ramona. Would not recommend.

Whenever I visit my best friend in Ramona, we always go eat at Nuevo Grill & Cantina. The food is excellent and the margaritas are as well. The atmosphere is very nice. Cute place.

Hey this place was actually pretty nice! I will highly recommend the street tacos and the carnitas. The waitresses are all cute and funny. It cost a little more than I would have liked, but overall it is always a good experience here.

Large party (say 30) were there. Great service, good food but seemed a bit pricey compared to other alternatives we would now consider for such an extended family gathering

Stopped in for lunch and was pleasantly surprised. Nuevo is hidden in a little strip mall and is a very clean and quit place. The food was very good and the service was excellent. The portions were adequate and we did not leave hungry. My wife says the margarita's were excellent. We would return again.

Best sit down restaurant in Ramona. Informal, so good for all ages. Stick with Mexican Food and Sandwiches; the ribs and steak aren't nearly as good.
