Mexican Food & Culture History

Restaurant Description

El Fandango is a historically interpretive Restaurant, reflecting the changing pattern of food preparation in California during the time period of 1846 to 1856 years of great change in California. The menu of El Fandango reflects the collection of cuisine that took root during this period.

The structure and decoration of El Fandango reflects the building style of the Mexican period: a patio with armadas for shade and the outdoor style of living, the exterior: an adobe plastered style of construction.

We hope you enjoy a brief journey back in time to this unique period when the old San Diego and the embryo of a new San Diego co-existed.

Best tasting carne asada in town! Also suggest The special #4 (carne asada burrito,beef taco and a 16oz drink) all for only $5.99! I Love to add a side of their delicious refried beans. Has a drive thru for ease of use.

I have been eating at Old Town Mexican Cafe for over 21 years. You will not find a better Mexican restaurant north of the border, or south of the border for that matter. Their house specialty is Carnitas that are to do for.
