Bazaar Del Mundo — Local services in San Diego

Diane we love your restaurants. However questioned why you would leave your welcome first impression completely left unattended and then also with someone so unhappy. Maybe a bad day for...

It's extremely overpriced, I've actually been to Guatemala and these things aren't even priced to also cover imports. I had gone with my sister that day and this white lady was at the front desk, already weird cause why can't you at least have a latina. Anyway, the lady kept looking at us like we might steal something, and then when we went up to pay, the woman just chatted with a (white) customer for like 10 minutes after the purchase was finalized.
