Sometimes, a wonderful chef opens an amazing restaurant in the middle of nowhere, and this is one of those! I’d put La Hornilla in my top 10 restaurants in the world. Food is all freshly made from high quality local ingredients. My friend had ribs,...which fell off the bone and satisfied the palette with a spicy bbq sauce. I had the chicken penne pasta in a jalapeño cream sauce that was delectable. They also have some unique cocktails, such as a tangerine margarita and a smoked tequila drink, the name of which I forget. Not easy to get to, but worth the trip, especially if you’re already in Baja.More

What a great little place? We stopped by for dinner on a Sunday at what looked like a little out-of-the-way roadside restaurant and to our surprise the food was excellent. In fact, some of the best around. They offer both indoor seating with maybe five...or six tables and a full bar, as well as a quiet little garden dining area outside. The place is neat, clean and well organized and the waitstaff were helpful and very welcoming. The food is not your typical roadside fare. Most of the choices on the menu had something special about them…..some little added twist that took the dish to a higher level. The Pizza and pasta were a nice addition to the fish and shrimp menu offerings. We definitely will go back…….and more than just once.More

Went here based on all the great reviews. Was a busy Saturday night so my mistake there but after 45 mins waiting, the wrong dish came out, I was starving so went with it. Pasta and sauce were luke warm, some"shrimp" were just tails ....Got charged for the more $ version I had ordered, then short-changed on the bill? Boo HooMore

We just had a wonderful experience at La Hornilla! This place oozes with atmosphere and charm! From the servers to the cook and the Bartender, the folks here take great care of their customers. And the food? Out of this World! We both had the...Tequila/Jalapeno shrimp fettacine plate. The shrimp was huge and the best we have had in Baja, maybe ever! They offer steak, seafood, Italian and BBQ! The Margaritas are great with many flavors to choose from. We are coming back for the Molcajete tonite! You get a huge serving and the prices are very low for the incredible quality of the food! Jackie was our mesera. She was very friendly and helpful. Patty and Omar were fantastic! This is a small out of the way "Gem" that when in Punta Pescadero or El Cardonal you must try! We will be back often!More

Yummy and fun!! The people were welcoming & lovely, the food was DELISH, and the experience was charismatic & memorable!! I’ve gotta say that the adventure of getting there was a hoot! We were a party of seven & we indulged in a plethora of...menu items - habanero/mango ribs, coconut shrimp, jalapeño cream sauce on fettuccine w/chicken & quesadillas all were TDF, not a bad bite to be had! A must have experience if you’re in the el cardonal area - make this spot a priority!More

This restaurant was a very pleasant surprise. Beautifully presented delicious food of a creative high standard. Also the best margarita done properly. We were staying at punta Pescadero paradise hotel and just continued north on the dirt road to El Cardonal. You can also take...the road through the mountains north from Los Barriles. Keep wishing we could go back. Both seafood dishes we had were lovely as was the salad.More

We rented a quad and drove north from Los Barilles along the coast looking for local restaurant with Mexican fare. What we found was beyond our expectations. I the small pueblo El Cardonal the restaurant La Hornilla is a nondescript but very clean restaurant with...outside seating. The food is Mexican gourmet! The service is very friendly and the margaritas delicious. This place is definitely worth the 10 mile drive and the views along the way are amazing. Don’t miss this place if you’re in Los Barilles.More

What an amazing experience! The energy of this place is magical to say the least. Very very cute and the food was nothing short of amazing. I had the shrimp tacos. The scrimp was very fresh & amazing. My wife had the vegetable skewer and...they were very good. Prices were very reasonable & the energy was vibrant. We didn't have them but they were having Margaritas (2 for 1). Obviously, I highly encourage you to stop in. Terry Jay Gremaux -- +1.406.366.9280More

This restaurant is worth a trip from Los Barriles. It is one of the best restaurants around these parts. Run by a Brother and Sister , both excellent chefs, and the food is a cut above anything else around. Order the Chipotle fish, one of...my favorites, and a Caesar salad, and you won't be disappointed. Also the margaritas are tops. The atmosphere is welcoming, in a garden setting with a play area for the kids. Come early to avoid a wait.More
