COMAL Restaurante — Restaurant in Ensenada

Nestled away in a chic plaza with plenty of other modern bars and restaurants, Comal is among the best dining experiences I’ve had in my life. Each dish is an absolute labor of love that brings creative new tastes to your mouth, and the flavor combinations are thoughtfully complementary and delicious.

I took partial picture of my ’view’ and sent it to my friend, whom I’m bringing on my next visit, and she actually identified the...

Upon arrival being seated and receiving the menu I was hesitant because I was looking for a more casual and simple menu. But then the waiter gave us a little history and explained that food may take a little longer because everything is individually cooked. I ordered the fish and my husband had a pork strip. When the order came I thought that doesn’t look like much food for the $$. But then the first bite was an explosion of flavor. We both savored all the flavors and my husband’s kept saying how delicious his meal was. In the end we both agreed we would definitely come back and the food was absolutely not overpriced.
