Went with a friend expecting a great steak.. but what a surprise we ordered lomo a el trapo which I had try in Dapa at Barichole it was delicious. these people at tizones are amazing first I saw the waiter poured all the leftovers chimichurris to fill a little jar to give it as new how disgusting this can be..then my lomo al trapo was a shame it eas thing and not grill on charcol pretty much fry . Can't believe these people are shameless to give something like that to a customer. Stay away.

Have now been in Cali for 4 months and have tried most, if not all, of the so-called best restaurants. In addition, I am a big TripAdvisor fan, but totally aware that everyone's opinion is different.
We visited Tizones on a Tuesday evening at 8:00 pm. I was immediately worried when on arrival, all the waiters were sitting down playing on their phones. That should have told me something!
Regardless, as we were there, and there were many excellent reviews, we decided to go for it!
We began by sharing a very costly ceviche ($36,000), that was over loaded with onions and lime juice? We then went for the special (strongly encouraged by the waiter) of steak and langostines priced at a whopping $68,000 per person! For drinks, we had a jug of white sangria at $80,000. The most expensive sangria in Cali!!!
The total bill including tip of $24,000 was $280,000! Our most expensive meal by a long way in Cali.
The special was just okay. It was nothing special. The langostines were of a good size and wrapped in bacon. It was just an average meal.
As you can see, we went for it, and was not worried about cost, based on the reviews. However, I am adamant that the food is not worth the prices they charge, hence my title of this review.
I hate to plug other restaurants, but we only went to this restaurant, because our first choice was full up!!! Yes, full up on a Tuesday night!
I know that I should have read more into the situation on arrival, but as I mentioned, I wanted to try it out, for myself.
I hope for the owners sake, that this restaurant bustles on Friday and Saturday night, as I am guessing that during the week, business is almost non existent.
I will not name the other restaurant, but will review it accordingly.

We had a great meal at Tizones. The couple I was with said it was the best steak they ever had. The service was also pretty good. We also had a chocolate dessert with ice cream that was pretty good.

My Wife's Uncle surprised us with an invitation to Tizones. WOW! What a great discovery. Please know their menu comes in both English and Spanish, so don't be afraid to ask. We started out by ordering the Ceviche de Camaron (actually for us Gringos, it's a Shrimp Cocktail not Ceviche). It was good but I was really tasting Ceviche Pacifico, but the shrimp was prepared perfectly. My wife ordered the Pollo al Limon and it was simply awesome (see photo). The portion were extremely generous and the chicken was moist and flavorful.

It was probably one of the best chicken dishes I have ever tasted. I asked the Server for his recommendation and he suggested the Surf and Turf. My plate came with two pieces of Baby Beef (Veal) and three enormous Langostinos (Malaysian Tiger Shrimp) wrapped in bacon. Delicious! If you are looking for a romantic place to have an exceptional dining experience then you need to plan a meal here. You will not be disappointed!
