Old Mill (Molino Viejo) Still Open?

I have heard rumors that the Old Mill Hotel in San Quintin is no longer open. Is there any truth in this? Thank you.

Just stayed there about a month ago because Jardines was full.
Don't know about now..... still running and they are serving food separate from The Old Mill restaraunt

Thank you, Alan. Can you tell me a bit about Jardines? It sounds like that was your first choice.

I've spent a LOT of time in San Quintin the last couple years.

The Rodriguez family (Los Pinos) bought the Old Mill bar/restaurant maybe 5 to 8 years years ago and renamed it to its spanish name Molino Viejo - they worked with the govt and had a huge deck and facilities added to make the area an event spot. The road being paved from HWY 1 was also a perk of this project.
The restaurant serves traditional Mexican fare and is pretty good IMO.

The Old Mill Hotel is owned in partnership. Javier started Eucalipto Restaurant & Bar and it has become the premier dining spot in San Quintin. Jardines is always a good choice for every day dining however.

Don Eddies is still hanging in there and Tony Marquez (Don Eddie's son) is trying to keep it going - it is for sale though.

Nice video to see the Old Mill/Molino Viejo and the big deck outside, ending with ceviche made on the fishing boat!

I ate there in 2017 and the lobster burritos were great and cheap!
