100% recommended. A small outdoor patio of an old classic house reconverted into a breakfast place. One of the owners is an architect and you can see it in some design solutions like the house shaped structure in black where the bar is. Really good food, but the service was a little slow because the place was full. Long live, Celida

The first bite hit my palate with an explosion of flavor. Eggs Benedict with salmon. Simple poached eggs. Simple shaved slices of fish. A heavenly Hollandaise that brought all the ingredients to a philharmonic of exquisite taste. Wow! How many time have you taken that first bite and then had to sit back and gaze skyward? Celido is set in a covered garden-like setting that feels like you're outside. Owned by renowned chefs Luis Hernandez and Omar Hernandez, the very talented Julieta was cooking, Aitana (studying to be a medical doctor) serving. Roberti Campos, Pedro Lopez and Dessire Wootho working the front. Proud mom of Luis, Diana Dominguez lent genteel elegance, pointing out that her son's work has been featured in Food & Wine magazine. Place was packed on a Saturday morning. Celida open every day.

A quaint, thoughtfully designed breakfast space filled with greenery. Food is on the smaller side, but absolutely delicious and visually pleasing. Service is great and inobtrusive. Added bonus: the soundtrack is ideal for elder millennials looking for a nice breakfast spot.

Best coffee in town! A must for local gourmet brunch, with true mexican flavors. Cozy hidden and great interior design. Top vegetarian options

Coming to Celida was a recommendation from a local connoisseur. I really enjoyed the meal and the ambience, and my only complaint would be the portion of the tlacoyos (even when they came with machaca). Luckily we also had the french toast with berries jam, which was very good as well. We also had some chais, which were delicious.

100% recommend. My partner and I spent 2 nights in Ensenada recently and we ended up having breakfast here both mornings. We tried different dishes each time and all 4 were excellent but kept we coming back for the chai and mochas
