Restaurante y Vivero la Hacienda — Restaurant in Baja California

Wonderful restaurant in the middle of Baja wine country! We sat outside underneath beautiful old oak trees - very relaxing after the drive down from LA. The food was delicious (we will return tomorrow!) and the service excellent. The owner, Alfredo, was very pleasant and spent a long time talking with us at our table and gave us good local advice (great sunsets at cuatro cuatros!).

Addendum: We ended up eating here several times during our stay and each meal was wonderful! The Maitre 'd, Francisco, was attentive and helpful and Alfredo stopped by our table each time to chat. We will definitely return on our next visit!

Came around noon and it was pretty empty which I’m not complaining about but the food this time around was bland or you could tell it had been sitting there for a while. We did feel rushed by staff. At some point they started picking up all the food and the. Decided to come ask us if we were done… after they were half way done. At that point we were over it so just left. Usually good service but this time it was very disappointing. The picture below is all the staff picking up. I recommend if you really want to try this place go before 11 bc by noon...
