Best tacos in Rosarito. I recommend the tacos perrones, which come with grilled meat, beans, cheese, salsa, and guacamole. There can be a long line, but it's worth it. Down the street from Rosarito Beach Hotel.

Best fish tacos in town. Also fresh ceviche and shrimp tacos. It's not an indoor restaurant--just outdoor plastic seating. Can't beat the cold beers & fresh fish tacos. Located off the toll road at K-38, south of Rosarito & right across the street from the huge statue of Jesus on the hill.

Recommended for delivery if you want to stay in. Similar to El Pollo Loco, they specialize in grilled whole chickens & side dishes (beans, rice, guacamole, salsa, tortillas, potato salad, etc.) You'll need to speak some Spanish to place your order.

Sightseeing
If you like hiking, this is a nice spot to go for a hike. It's on the way to Ensenada, on the free road that passes through La Mision. There's a small entrance fee, and a trail that leads to a small waterfall.
