Hernandez Hideaway Restaurant

"Great little hole in the wall, locals hangout with a bar and restaurant. Food was decent, margaritas were very good but our waitress was wonderful. The bartender greeted us when we walked in and we were seated quickly."

"Local hangout for those living in the Lake Hodges area. So close to those along the Del Dios Highway. Great Mexican food and Margaritas! Local atmosphere let's you relax and enjoy those you came with. During the Racing Season this is a great place to stop while heading east to the Escondido area or to I 15 going north or south. Check the history of the Margarita on their menu. Another trip to the Hideaway after the races at Del Mar. Five of us had great Mexican food and margaritas by the pitcher! Service was on top of their game with all of our needs met! If you have never been there you should check it out after the races or just to get excellent food! I suggest the shrimp quesadillas! Another night celebrating with the family at the Hide-A-Way! All of us had great time in a private room where we could talk and enjoy our family’s company. The food as always was superb! We had everything from chips and salsa, margaritas, enchiladas, burritos and tacos. The end of the night was a birthday dessert!"

"Just too darn expensive. Basically, double the price at half the size. Food was OK. Service was fine. Atmosphere is cool. But a $20 dollar small burrito? Sorry, I can't afford this place."

"Still give this place 5 stars. Super nice bartender, kept my chips & salsa bowl full. I noticed how they make their famous Margarita fresh! However this place needs a refreshing, it screams ancient 1970's decor! Except for the widescreen TV's. I would definitely go there again."

"A random find as we were exploring lake Hodges. Great food, vibe and service. The seafood platter was delish - everything was fresh and tender (especially cod and scallops). Comes with 3 tortillas so plenty of food. They also recommend the Cadillac margarita, which my partner enjoyed but I thought was a bit strong. Quite reasonably priced. Interesting decor, adobe house vibes with retro art work. Interesting fact - the owner of the place nice yes the margarita back in the day!"
