My wife and I were visiting from Houston, TX, and we actually felt we'd be dissappointed coming from a state who's Mexican food is the best in the land. However, we were greatly suprised with OTMC!!
The tortillas are fabulous and served too hot to handle, Texas could learn a lesson from these babies. We had guacomole and ceviche as starters and both were outstanding. Having been to El Agave two nights before where the avacodos were hard as green pears, we were concerned but ordered anyway. It couldn't have been better! The ceviche was very good, but not excellent. It contained only white fish (like the munu stated), but had great flavor and plenty of fish, unlike those that try to strech it by adding too much tomatoes and onion.
My wife designed her own plate with a chicken enchallida, a cheese enchallida, and a tostado. She was extremely impressed and didn't leave a morsel. I had the carnitas platter; unlike Texas carnitas it didn't have any sauce served on it, but the pork as tasty as it was.
After two margaritas each and the meal described above we walked out for $65 (including tip), feeling we had just finished a meal fit for a "Mexican" king. Two nights before we left El Agave with a $144 tab, and not nearly as impressed with the food quality.
Again, this comes from a couple of Texan's who eat Mexican food in restaurants at least 3 times a week. Next time in San Diego, we'll have OTMC on our agenda for a couple of nights.
Pros: Food, Service, Value for Money
Cons: Parking, Wait, Noisy

Five months ago I took a vacation in San Diego. The desk clerk at the hotel I stayed in recommended Anthony's. I went for lunch and was not disappointed. There was no waiting time and the atmosphere and food were great. I had great service. It was so good that I went back the next night for dinner. I plan to go back to San Diego soon just so I can go to Anthony's.

The best margaritas I have tasted in San Diego. The food is not bad and the service was friendly. Occassionally they will have live music playing. Great place to take a date or just to relax on a sunny afternoon with some friends. Thumbs up!
Pros: Margaritas, Service & Atmosphere
Cons: Can get very hot outside
