Tijuana in Oberhausen

The atmosphere at the restaurant was okay, and the service was very friendly. Unfortunately, the food was disappointing; the fries were cold, and everything seemed like it came from the freezer. Even the "chocolate churros" were out of stock. We were given regular ones instead, but we still had to pay for the chocolate churros because we had ordered them using the QR code. All in all, I don't recommend this place.

After work, my colleagues and I wanted to go out for dinner together again. Since we had a great experience in Tijuana last year, we spontaneously decided to go there again. The weather was lovely so we sat outside by the water. Last time I discovered a drink that I particularly enjoyed and I really wanted to order it again. We placed our order with a friendly waiter and after a while the food arrived. However, when I saw my drink I realized it wasn't the one I ordered. It looked nothing like the drink I had last time. I apologized to the waiter and explained that I had accidentally ordered the wrong drink. I showed him a photo of the drink I had last time and explained that I couldn't drink the one with the cream because I have health problems with it. He said, “Okay, we can handle this,” and went back into the restaurant. At some point he came back to our table with a young man (shift manager according to the waiter). The young man wore a white turtleneck sweater, glasses and a slight beard. He seemed to look at me askance in the first minute. Without greeting me, he asked me: “So you have an allergy?” I replied, "I have health problems and cannot have this drink. I'm sorry, it was a wrong order and there is too much cream in it." He then replied stinkily: "It's not nice what you're doing. I have to throw it away now!", which left me speechless. He then made an “exception” for me and left without saying goodbye. The waiter later apologized for his shift manager's behavior, which left us more speechless. The food and drink afterwards were excellent, and all the other service staff worked with passion. However, the behavior of this shift manager shocked us. Even if that's the case, you don't talk to customers like that. Above all, I don't have to talk about my health problem alongside others. I've always seen people like this in movies and it frustrates me that this happens in real life. I'm the last person to waste food unnecessarily, but if my concerns and sincere apologies had been calmly listened to instead of playing boss and feeling like a king, the evening would have been better for everyone. The waiter then got a big tip from us. I hope the shift manager that day rethinks the way he talks to PEOPLE. Unbelievable.

First of all the service was okay. The long wait, especially for the drinks (the food was there beforehand), detracted from the whole impression. I had a burrito as shown in my photo. There's nothing on the menu about a nasty cocktail sauce over a bland salad, although unfortunately the beans weren't cooked through. My companions had tapas and chili con carne. The chili con carne tasted old and had probably been reheated many times. The vegetarian tapas mainly contained carrots and bitter green inedible peppers. Even a snack bar gets better food, which is why there are so few stars! It's a shame we were looking forward to Mexican then such a disappointment.

Nice Mexican restaurant on the promenade at CentrO. Good selection of food and drinks, especially cocktails. The cocktails taste good. Happy hour is for regular cocktails until 10 p.m. and happy hour for jumbo cocktails from 10 p.m. Here you get 50% off, although the prices are in the normal cocktail range at around 8.50-9.00 euros. The food is also good. There are typical Mexican dishes such as burritos, quesadillas, wraps, enchiladas and tacos. There is something for everyone. Service very friendly. In spring or summer you can also sit outside on the promenade.

The service was good, the food is not at all value for money. Ambience dark and loud.

Quite ok. But food is not a highlight.

A bit loud background noise, otherwise everything is fine.

My friend and I were led to a seat by a waitress without a reservation sign when suddenly the team leader came and asked us to leave because this seat was probably reserved. 5 minutes later a couple with a child came into the restaurant, apparently known by the team leader. They were led to the same table. After a moment's thought, the team leader allowed you to take a seat. You feel a little fooled.

Really disappointed... I eat here quite often and just have cocktails with friends. But today, when I ate here with my friends, it was definitely my last time. We came as usual with a reservation and waited understandingly because it was a busy Friday night and we were also a little early. We were already hurriedly shown to our table and given time to look at the menu carefully. After a while, the waiter came to take our order, quite rushed and stressed (but, as I said, understandingly because we also work with customers and know it's not exactly easy). We had just ordered the first lamb when the first one made an annoyed comment about us ordering the non-alcoholic ones first. Then the ones with alcohol. Everything was fine, we passed, and we moved on to the food. We had garlic bread and nachos with the dips, and then he started to get very rude because we didn't understand. It started with him asking if we could skip the salsa and order a different dip, like sour cream. "Tell me what you want," in a truly annoyed tone. The whole time, he made comments like, "Just sour cream? What else?" One of my friends, who was visiting for the first time, was a little overwhelmed by the selection and asked what they already had. Annoyed, he pointed to the menu, "This one's available, you decide." I simply couldn't say what I wanted because he had already left. Well, what can I say? At least the other waiters were nice and patient. Even with their understanding of the stress, they lost me as a loyal customer. It's a shame, really... :(

Service very attentive. Ambiance was mediocre as we sat outside right next to the loud arcade. Food was good, not very good but good.

Yes, we drank burgers and Kölsch. It was really delicious 😋

The restaurant is exceptional and that is good and plentiful

Delicious food and friendly service

Ambience ok, the staff was nice and they tried their best. Unfortunately the food was very tasteless… potato wedges without salt.

I went to Tijuana Oberhausen for lunch today, it wasn't well served and we were served quite quickly. I chose the Pollo Burrito and was very pleased with the taste. The portion was very large, so I took half a burrito with me and this will probably become my breakfast burrito tomorrow 😬

First of all: The service was good. We came here for a nightcap after an event in the arena opposite. From 9 p.m. onwards there was 50% off all jumbo cocktails, and it felt like the alcohol content was reduced by the same amount. The nachos were bad. The cheapest nachos baked with bad cheese and garnished with just a few jalapenos. Finally there was a B52, although here too the advertised 73% rum was missing. If you want to have a conversation, you're also in the wrong place here, as the music makes that almost impossible.

We had dinner in Tijuana on Tuesday evening. The dishes were delicious and the portions were very generous. In terms of food, we can recommend the restaurant. Why only 3 stars? There was little going on that evening. Nevertheless, we had to wait forever for service. She also had little motivation to make sales. Our drinks had long since been empty and visibly left on the side, but none of the waiters bothered to ask if we would like anything else. On the contrary, food and drinks were brought to the respective table and then the waitress disappeared again without checking to see if anyone else wanted anything. I was looking towards the food counter. The food was often ready to be served on the counter for several minutes, but no one was there to see the waitress. As mentioned, there really wasn't much going on that evening. I don't want to imagine what it's like when the store is full.

Our favorite when we are in CentrO. The cocktails are great. The food too.

Quite dark restaurant Food delicious, nothing exceptional. Cocktails ok, somehow it's always happy hour? Can visit again!

Service was nice, but slightly annoyed if it wasn't too quick! The atmosphere was clean... The food wasn't worth it, fries were the cheap ones from the frozen section, the side salad was also the cheap ones from the supermarket... but the beer was fresh and tasty! I strongly recommend working on the food!!! Even the starter, simply nacho with cheese gratin, the cheese wasn't warmed through properly. Conclusion: the snack bar next door would have better quality food!

Food great as always. Waiters are in a great mood! Drink (cocktails) the best on the whole promenade!🤗😁 We'll definitely be back!

An outdated ambience meets mediocre food and the waiter always recommends the most expensive dish on the menu because it is the best thing you can eat on the promenade. Be careful, stay away from the fajitas casa! I've eaten something better in every restaurant on the promenade so far, and the term Mexican cuisine doesn't apply to the entire menu - here it's TexMex, nothing else. The restaurant is lucky that I was invited, otherwise it would have been mercilessly rejected. This is a student dive that is only recommended for cocktails.

We didn't eat, so I can't say anything about it. But the cocktails were great and the staff was very friendly and helpful. We were there with friends and felt very comfortable. We would love to come back.

Very crowded, very dark in the evenings (you can't read the menu or really see your food) and very loud. Service was very nice and quick, cocktails at certain times were half price and very tasty, both the non-alcoholic and the alcoholic ones. Food rather mediocre. Wraps and quesadillas (without cheese, nothing for zodiac cheese) okay, fries first class, burgers good. Mostly standardized fast food/finger food. Price level rather high. In short: If you want to eat comfortably and chat, this is not the place for you. If you like cocktails and just need a (food) base, then yes. Oh yes, and paying individually is no problem if there are several people. It can even be ordered via QRcode and paid with Paypal. However, we didn't try it out.

Nice atmosphere and delicious food (large portions) and drinks. The service staff are friendly but unfortunately not the fastest. You should bring some time. Drinks happy hour is worth it.

Really good place for food and drink! Service was exceptional!!

Great cozy place for cocktails and platters!!! Friendly Serbian Highly recommended

Very nice service and reasonable prices. We'll definitely be back.

Very good Mexican right on the CentrO restaurant strip. There is plenty of indoor and outdoor seating. The service is very friendly, attentive and quick. There is a variety of delicious food and drinks. So far, we've always enjoyed it very much and always been full. The price-performance ratio is also right. We like to come back again and again.

very not-friendly staffs. only germans are welcomed here . CAREFUL

Great atmosphere. Very kid friendly. Busy night, and they seated us right away with our reservation. Food was quick and drinks were good. Friendly staff!

Overall, the visit was okay; the friendly and helpful staff in particular left a positive impression. The food was also completely fine, but it lacked that certain “wow factor” that you would hope for on an evening in a restaurant at the weekend. A big point of criticism, however, was the tipping system in the toilets. A tip plate with a coin was placed on it, which seemed like an invitation to leave a certain amount. This felt very uncomfortable and intrusive to me - more like an old motorway service station than a restaurant. Unfortunately, this concept greatly spoiled the overall impression.

Good price/performance ratio, worth it

Wir waren mit sieben Personen (4 Erwachsene und 3 Kindern) sonntags nachmittags da und wurden von der Aushilfe abgewiesen, obwohl es genügend freie Plätze gab, wir voll verzehren wollten und auch eine kleine Wartezeit in Kauf genommen hätten. Auf Nachfrage, wer das zu entscheiden hätte, sagte man uns, dass der Vorgesetzte erst später käme und die Kollegin das so entschieden hätte, da die unterbesetzt seien. Sehr enttäuschend!!!

The restaurant seems very cozy to us. The service tried very hard. The food tastes very good. We'd love to come back.

Been there many times and always had only good experiences. Delicious food, friendly staff & a large selection of drinks.

Food was okay, service was very nice, unfortunately the heaters for outside would have to have a little more power.

The food was perfect and the service was super friendly as always.😋 It's best to reserve in advance as it's very busy

Wow! 5 out of 5 We, my wife and I, felt very comfortable. The service was very friendly and accommodating. The food and the non-alcoholic cocktails were also great!

Food good, drink good too! the prices are fair and it’s quite a lively place!

My husband and I went for Mexican food for the first time. The food was very tasty, even if it tasted a bit unusual at first. Our waitress was very helpful and competent. The atmosphere was very authentic and cozy.

We had dinner there yesterday. Despite there being a Christmas market and the restaurant being completely full, we only had to wait 10 minutes for our food. The service was outstanding and the food was also very good. The next time we are in Oberhausen, we will definitely eat there again!

quite tasty food, good portions. The order went quite well with the online ordering system, but calling the waitress didn't work. She didn't come by to clear away either. We then went forward to pay.

Super nice service and delicious food. We were there spontaneously before a concert, it was well filled, but the food still came quickly. We'd love to come back!

We were there for dinner 4 weeks ago with 12 people from the company, the restaurant was very full and we had to wait a long time for drinks. We had to wait 1 1/2 hours for the food, one meal was completely forgotten and the person had to measure it, so to speak. Not so nice. The food itself was really good. The cocktails were also delicious and plentiful. Good value for money.

I can't say anything about the food. We were there with a group (+me with a toddler) and we only ordered coffee and cocoa because it was raining cats and dogs outside and it was pretty cold. I wanted to give my child his food (since he was hungry and can't eat tacos or anything like that yet) and a waitress came and said I wasn't allowed to give him the food he had "brought with me" and I had to do it outside.. so a friend asked if They could then turn on these heaters outside, then we would sit outside (there wasn't a pig sitting there because it was raining and it was cold) and the waitress said I wasn't allowed to give my child the food either and I had to get away from the place ... well said and done (we wanted to leave but unfortunately we had already paid) so I went out with my child and looked for a place where we could stand underneath and gave him the food... we went back in, sat down and my child wanted to breastfeed again It's going to be good, I thought... then I loudly expressed whether I was allowed to do that at all since it was food for my child that I had brought with me that didn't come from their kitchen 🙄😒 They are outrageous and then they advertise on their website that they are child-friendly and that they advertise “we love kids” in a big way I didn't notice anything So if you have small children who can't or aren't allowed to eat everything, it's not worth going Oh, and you can't change your child there either... the shelf can't hold 10 kilos, just put it on the backpack alone, I thought it would break off (so the child was temporarily changed on the toilet) Oh and the cocoa didn't taste good either, it was way too bitter and you didn't even get a biscuit or something like that at other restaurants, so I'd rather make it myself at home and pay the same as for a cup at them, but they have a lot more of it which also tastes good

Delicious food, service a bit slow. Nice atmosphere. Preferred by younger audiences. Good cocktails

The lighting in the ambience was a little poor, too dark to read the menu, a smartphone was needed 😉

Away from the front; The service was very friendly and our order came very quickly! Unfortunately, this didn't really suit us! My chicken in the Qusedilla was just bland! The toulettes were not clean, which I personally see as a big drawback!

Delicious food, large portions for little money. Wide choice of cocktails and generous happy hour prices. Child friendly and very nice staff. Due to the large space and hustle and bustle, it is a bit noisy, but it also fits the atmosphere of the restaurant.

We went there at short notice without a reservation because we had an event in the arena and got a place at the high table. The service was really good, everyone was very friendly and tried to make us have a good time, even though it was busy. Food and drinks super good!

Very disappointed, unfriendly service and the food was cold. Burger and fries, and we were wondering why the food was there after a minute. Not recommended

We had a great meal there. Price/performance ratio is definitely right. Great ambience, nice service

We tested the lunch special today and found it to be good. Delicious food at a fair price/performance ratio in a cozy atmosphere and with friendly service. The restaurant is largely barrier-free and the sanitary facilities were clean. We'd love to come back.

Quite tasty. Nice atmosphere but unfortunately loud. Better to order the beer than the wine; But as always, that's a matter of taste.

We are incredibly disappointed with our visit to Tijuana. We have been waiting for our food for over 1.5 hours, while all the guests who came after us have already been served and some have even finished eating. The service is chaotic and it seems like our order was completely forgotten. Not a word of apology, no effort to explain or improve the situation. We have never experienced anything like this - absolutely not recommended!

A disaster! We have now been waiting for our food for over 1.5 hours, while all the guests who came after us have already been fully served. The service seems completely overwhelmed, our order seems to have been forgotten. There was no apology or any attempt to salvage the situation. Absolutely disappointing and definitely not recommended!

I have nothing at all to complain about the restaurant itself. I just care about the staff. My girlfriend just wanted to go to the toilet, but she was refused, and security was called and we were laughed at. I have no words for it. Just unqualified. And all because of a trip to the toilet. Never again. I have never been treated so disrespectfully.

Is highly recommended. The food and cocktails are delicious, and the service is also very quick and friendly

The ideal place to eat Burritos & Co. in the CentrO. Always happy to come to Tijuana. Unfortunately it was a bit too loud recently with guests and music. Otherwise everything as expected.

After forever wanting to finally go out for Mexican food (especially quesadillas and burritos), we combined the visit to the Gasometer with dinner at Tijuana. A great ambience and courteous and fast service fulfilled our wish. The quality of the food was absolutely brilliant and the quantity was also really good. We didn't even expect that. Great class! If we take a short trip to Oberhausen again, Tijuana will definitely appear in the daily schedule again. 😊

Great food. Excellent service, very friendly staff and good music.

It was nice and the food was great

Nice shop, very friendly and nice service

But Mexican isn't quite my cup of tea. My wife liked it very much.

Basically just a big, fancy chip shop, the food is designed to be prepared quickly from the deep fryer, there's nothing homemade or anything like that, I would say! Special requests such as “no tomatoes” will not be taken into account in wraps, for example! I wouldn't go here again!

Delicious food here. You get large portions that are filling. Good affordable restaurant with happy hour on cocktails all day long. The food was delivered quickly after ordering every time. On the other hand, it often took a long time before the ordered drinks were delivered. You can easily order everything via a QR code, or from the staff.

Delicious cocktails at a reasonable price.

I haven't experienced an evening like today for a long time. At first we were actually greeted quite friendly, but then things went steeply downhill... The waiter at the table was relatively reserved when it came to greeting us. Then the QR code was thrown onto the table for us to order ourselves. Then our drinks came, but the waitress tipped the drink over and it spilled all over the table and my companion. Something like that can happen, but it's important how you deal with it. We had to clean up the puddle ourselves and the waitress left with the words “That’s fine, right?” No apology, nothing! There is no concept of service whatsoever. The other waiter slammed our cutlery on the table without even looking at us. Then I ordered something more using the great self-ordering function because the waiter wasn't there anymore. After 15 minutes had passed, I asked politely whether I would receive 3 additional wraps. It turned out that the order via the “great” app hadn’t even arrived in the kitchen… The wraps were then brought to me, but after half an hour another 3 wraps arrived… So the transfer worked really well. All in all, we can't really recommend it here, but luckily there is plenty to choose from on the promenade!

Very nice staff, everything was fine.

Excellent, even though we couldn't get a table inside because we didn't reserve. But inside it is also far too loud due to the hall-like space. It was really nice outside under the umbrellas including heaters. The service is attentive, funny and quick. The food was tasty. The portion is large and reasonably priced. GREAT, we had a lovely evening

Very tasty Tex Mex restaurant. Service is quite quick via a QR code. At lunchtime there is happy hour for cocktails

Nice atmosphere, large portions - delicious.

Has diminished very much. We sat on the terrace for 15 minutes and were completely ignored. Waiters walk past snooty and not just at our table.

It was PERFECT! It's a beautiful restaurant, the service team is super friendly and you get a very friendly welcome. The food and drinks are amazing, I'll be happy to come back!

It was packed last night due to the fall holidays and we were served very courteously, friendly and quickly! The food and cocktails were very good and we would love to come back!

Very good shop, the food is very tasty and you get a lot for what you pay. Definitely recommended.

Good food, also lots of choice for vegetarians and vegans. Service was also very good and friendly.

We were there for the first time. Very child friendly. Delicious food, nice service and large portions. We were all full and left the restaurant satisfied. We'd love to come back.

The service was nice, but not very competent or careful. Very basic. We were there with children, we weren't offered or brought a children's menu, we only found out after ordering that there was one. Food was okay, meat and the vegan options were tasty. A reservation was unnecessarily complicated and ultimately didn't work out via email/phone.

Unfortunately very loud. We had to wait almost 15 minutes for our order to be taken. Less than 10 minutes later the food but no drinks were on the table. It's very strange that the food came so quickly... The food used to be better. We had a Buritto Pollo and almost all the fat was dripping out of it. Unfortunately strong

Exceptionally good food, heavenly dessert, delicious cocktails, the cocktail prices shock you, but only until you realize that happy hour lasts all day until 10 p.m. The prices for the food are absolutely fair. The toilets are on the ground floor and are therefore easy to reach if you are not that good on foot. The chairs in the interior are also suitable for people with more weight or wider hips, are stable and have no armrests

There were 4 of us there for a cocktail 🍹 and sat outside on the terrace by the water. The waitresses were on point and friendly, and the cocktails we ordered came quickly. No restaurant on the promenade has such a range of different cocktails. Everything we drank was delicious. So if you're looking for a good cocktail bar, you'll find it here!! It wasn't the first time I was there and certainly not the last time either 😉

We really enjoy eating there when we are in NRW.

I waited far too long for my coffee and ended up having to drink a cold one. Very unfriendly staff

It was very nice and great service

Great service with great recommendations for those who are undecided. Background music not too intrusive. Conclusion: a good place to go for the whole family

Mexican cuisine, but burgers 🍔 are also served. Prices ok. Drinks are a little more expensive but still within reason. Rooms are a bit “rocked out” but still ok. Background noise very high. Food was quite good. Service very friendly. Toilets clean. What more could you want?

Very tasty Mexican food. The waitress was also very friendly and accommodating.

Service terrible! They only talk to each other and no one comes to the table or is responsible for you. After waiting half an hour for anyone to come our way (the store wasn't full), we had to wait another 15 minutes to even order drinks, despite asking. We were only able to pay after asking three times. Lack of staff or not - there were a lot of people there who were just standing around.

Unfortunately it is very dark in the restaurant and you don't know what you are eating.

Great restaurant and super cool service. We were indoors in unsettled weather. Seating was free and the waitress came very quickly. Our cocktail was large and half price. You should really think about this! And my Impanema was very tasty and very well mixed! The food itself was really very good. Our wraps and the self-assembly plate were very, very tasty. I would love to come back the next time I visit CentrO!

We had nachos BBQ chicken which was delicious

Tasty food, large portion sizes, make sure you're hungry before you go! Delicious cocktails, lots of choices. Service was ok but we did visit late in the evening.

Fast, very attentive service, competent cuisine, cocktails 👍🏼

Food: Large portions. Drinks: 90% ice for small cocktails between €10 and €17. That's cheeky

Great food and great portions as well. Very nice staff

Good service and good food. Beautiful ambience. Recommended

The waiters are not at all interested, we waited 25 minutes to order, no one looked, we called out, they didn't hear, it took them 30 minutes to bring 1 cappuccino after the order, it was literally very bad.

I was there last night and I have to say the food was very tasty. The cashier with black hair was super friendly and personable.
