" I had the chance to dine at TOSTADAS EL MEZON recently, thanks to a recommendation from a friend. While I appreciated the authenticity of the tostadas, particularly the cueritos, I found my experience a bit lacking in terms of service. The staff seemed overwhelmed during peak hours, which is understandable, but it did affect the overall experience. The atmosphere was lively, a blend of locals and visitors all eager to indulge in authentic Tijuana fare. Though I hope for better service next time, I would still return for that delicious food!
