"A bit expensive for my cheap ass, @100 to200 peso plates, rich area to be expected. food served slow but menu warns you 15-35min, 2 plates in 10min last one in 20. All gringo safe, chillecilles have a gringo safe spicy kick. All plates good quality, but not large for quantity. Parking could be difficult at peak times. Free WiFi. If you are a drunk, 199 peso bottomless mimosas, I saw them mix them strong. Caliente race track across the street, spend you winnings here, not you hard earned money."

"I was in Mantequilla for breakfast. The food is tasty and the portions are good, the staff is friendly and the atmosphere is quite enjoyable. We had the birria kiles and the French toast and they were really tasty. It is not a place to come and eat in a rush since service is not particularly fast. Even if they have valet parking, parking can be tricky when the place is full."

"Mexican Cafe in the morning, and they close around 1pm. A Japanese restaurant in the noon. They are known for their sushi. We ordered tempura, salmon bento, and classic ramen. The salmon bento is really good. We also recommend the tempura. The ramen lacks body but good basic soup. They have valet parking since parking is limited."

"Awesome experience today Saturday at Mantequilla Breakfast in Tijuana, Mexico! Parking is definitely challenging, not many options, I recommend their valet parking service if you don’t know the area (I don’t know the area either lol.) Staff were nice and welcoming, giving some excellent recommendations for our first time. Patio seating and inside seating available. Nice relaxing atmosphere, very pleasant, and not too loud! Food was delicious! My wife and her friend got the chilaquiles, I ordered the shrimp omelette. And fresh squeezed orange juice. Loved it! Prices were between 200-300 Mex Pesos ($10-$15 USD). Pay in Mexican pesos if possible, you’ll avoid the exchange fee! Definitely recommended!"

"Mantequilla has been a constant delight every time I’ve visited. From the very first time to my most recent visit, they have consistently delivered exceptional service, delicious food, and a warm, inviting atmosphere. It’s rare to find a place that hits all the marks every single time, but Mantequilla truly does. Whether you're going for a casual dinner or a special night out, you can count on them to make it a memorable experience. Highly recommended!"
