I had lunch at Terramar Mexican Kitchen last Friday. It was 1:30 pm and there was no line. I selected a seat outside and a waiter came up to deliver chips and green salsa, a glass of ice and a bottle of tap water. As always I asked, “What’s the best thing here?” and after listening to his suggestions I ordered a quesabirria taco and a shrimp taco. Both were excellent but I would give the nod to the quesabirria taco as slightly better.

I truly enjoyed my experience here. The workers were all kind, thorough and attentive throughout my entire stay. The food was fresh, visually pleasing and tasted amazing with great flavors without being overbearing or greasy. The drinks (Horchata and Tropical X) were refreshing and perfect for a hot summer’s day out on the patio. And even when the staff found out they were not able to prepare one of the main dishes a little after ordering, they were able to rectify the situation, they were apologetic and doubled down on their already remarkable service. They prompted me to order a replacement entree that showed up quickly and I was able to enjoy my meal with the rest of my table. There are so many options on the menu that look great and because of the quality choices of food and the unbelievable level of service on my first time here, I will definitely be back soon to try something new! Highly recommend this new spot in Escondido. Definitely worth the trip!

Terramar is a very small restaurant, with only 5 tables and counter space, however their tacos were delicious. We had the Birria, Chicken and Shrimp Tacos, all of them were on homemade tortillas and all were great. They didn’t have any “take out” menus, but I took photos of each page.

My family and I (11 total), we went on Father’s Day. Let me tell you the food and drinks won’t disappoint you at all. The salsa does have flavor not like other restaurants that just taste like water down salsa. Nope their salsa is bomb! The customer service was great. They’re so sweet! I recommend the Botana Mixta or the Ceviche plate for seafood & tropical rim for a drink!

The food was amazing! 1st time having Birra Ramen. Man this was good. We also had quesobirra, birra tacos, surf and turf tacos, and garlic shrimp tacos. We then washed it down with real Horchata and Jamaica drinks. There are 6 to 8 tables outside, and I believe 1 inside. They should be getting there liquor license soon.
