Great chips and white sauce, reasonably priced, HUGE portions. I didn't try any of the drinks, but the servers were kind and the staff kept a close eye on when the chips, salsa or water seemed to be running out. We enjoyed a great family dinner-it's cool because it's open air, but there's a ceiling and heat lamps. I would... more

How delightfully charming! It's a restaurant and boutique all in one. :-) The menu is quite reasonably priced, and it's not as extensive as most Mexican restaurants you may happen upon, but my friend and I took it as a sign that they concentrate on doing a few things well instead of a lot of things mediocre. And being in... more

We were in Coronado to visit some family for dinner, and knowing that I liked Mexican food, they recommended Miguel's. The semi open-air ambiance was nice, and the server attentive and prompt. Enjoyed my first taste of the salsa & jalepeno/cheese sauce. I ordered a carne asada burrito which was outstanding. My wife ordered the steak fajitas. I had a... more

I am from Phoenix and we have a lot of Mexican food but nothing compared to this food and service. Every year I can't wait till we get to San Diego. The first stop is ALWAYS this restaurant. Their jalapeno white sauce is outstanding (you can get the recipe on the internet). I always get some to take home. This... more

Hey, I'm okay with even Taco Bell, so believe me when I tell you this place is no big deal. These guys who think it's so great maybe never went to Chevy's or El Torito or a hundred other chains which usually don't impress me, but are a far cry better than this place. The perfunctory salsa and chips are... more

We live in Phoenix so perhaps we are a bit biased but I was not at all impressed with the food or drinks at this restaurant. Don't order the Sangria - worst I've ever had. Drinks way overpriced although the food was priced well. We did very much enjoy the cheese sauce and salsa's served with chips plus the service... more

Loved this restaurant. Great food, great prices and superior service. Ceviche and guacamole were the best we'd ever had. Entrees were wonderful, too. Highly recommend. more

Stumbled upon Miguels just by chance! LOVED IT! Did have to wait a bit but had the chips and salsa and sat on a bench near a heater. Sat outside to eat but it was warm enough with the heaters. The shrimp fajitas were outstanding.. the best I have ever had! Even my teenagers loved it! Will definitely go back... more

In the area for a week and found this place by accident. Fresh salsa & chips and was not hard on the wallet either. If the weather is good, eat outside in the courtyard. more
