If you're looking for an unforgettable dinner in Cabo, Los Tres Gallos is a must-visit! From the…read moremoment you walk in, you're greeted by a stunning courtyard filled with charm and authentic Mexican ambiance. The live mariachi band was incredibly talented and created the perfect atmosphere for the evening. The staff was welcoming, fun, and professional, making us feel like valued guests from start to finish. Their recommendation to order the appetizer sampler was spot on--the fundido, quesadilla, empanadas, and sopes were all fantastic and perfect for sharing. The carnitas were unbelievably tender and full of flavor, while the sea bass had everyone at the table raving. And just when we thought it couldn't get any better, dessert stole the show! The flan was silky smooth, the churros were warm and crispy, and the tres leches tequila cake was an absolute must-try. To top it all off, the cocktails were creative, beautifully presented, and just as delicious as the food. Los Tres Gallos delivered an incredible dining experience with amazing food, outstanding service, and an atmosphere that truly captures the spirit of Cabo. We can't wait to come back!

But that was the end of the positive things as a swarm of flies quickly came to eat the food. Trying to swat them away helped a bit but there was way too many of them. I eventually flagged a waiter down, and he shrugged at the flies. A minute later some candle flame thing came out saying that it will help with the flies but already that was too late as flies were all over the food and I lost my appetite at that point. It was disgusting. I just got up and left. Went to cashier to pay my bill. The cashier also shrugged at my fly incident, and I asked how much it was going to be. Full price. No consideration about bad operating environment and since they knew about the fly issue they didnt setup before food was served to control it better. Even after bringing it up again in detail, she shrugged again. No sorry or anything, just a brush off. Then to make it even worse she asked if I wanted to tip the service. I was in there for a few minutes, staff didnt help quickly or even pre-empt the fly issue, and I'm being asked to pay full price. Sorry but no thanks. How did this place get on the Michelin list? Service poor. Environment poor. Zero or negative star rating for me.

The food was phenomenal. The tableside guacamole was incredibly fresh and full of flavor, the ribeye chorizo queso was absolutely incredible, and the lobster ravioli was rich, perfectly cooked, and one of the best pasta dishes we've had. Every dish exceeded our expectations. Between the breathtaking views, great atmosphere, live music, exceptional service, and amazing food, this was easily one of the best dining experiences we've had in Cabo.

An Unforgettable Culinary Experience in Cabo, MX and a Birthday to remember! Mr. Alexander's restaurant in Cabo, MX, left me absolutely awestruck with its culinary delights and impeccable service. From the moment we stepped in, we were warmly welcomed by the friendly staff, setting the tone for a memorable evening. The steak and lobster were simply outstanding. Cooked to perfection, the tender steak melted in my mouth with every savory bite, while the lobster was succulent and bursting with flavor. Each dish was an artful fusion of taste and presentation, a testament to the chef's skill and creativity. But what truly elevated the experience was the exceptional service. The staff anticipated our every need, providing attentive recommendations and catering to our preferences with genuine care. Our glasses were never empty, and they ensured our dining experience was nothing short of perfect. The restaurant's ambiance was enchanting, with a tasteful blend of sophistication and relaxed charm. The well-appointed decor and soothing ambiance created a delightful atmosphere that complemented the exquisite cuisine. It's no wonder that Mr. Alexander's restaurant comes highly recommended by both locals and visitors alike. If you're in Cabo, make sure to indulge in the delectable steak and lobster, and prepare to be enchanted by the unparalleled service that sets this restaurant apart. This is an experience you won't want to miss! read more

We stumbled upon this place by accident, and what a fantastic surprise! From start to finish, our dinner was absolutely wonderful, attentive service, a peaceful atmosphere, and truly delicious food. It far exceeded our expectations, especially since we hadn't planned to dine there. We had the special: two steaks, two lobster tails, shrimp, and also ordered a pasta dish. Everything was cooked perfectly. The standout, though, was the banana dessert, prepared tableside with flair and a bit of a show. We also tried the crème brûlée, but the banana dessert was the clear favorite! The prices were incredibly reasonable, and we genuinely regretted not coming back the next day. Even though we had reservations at an upscale restaurant, we found ourselves wishing we were back at Alexander's instead. If you're in Cabo, this place is a must-try! read more

There was some real competition for top meal, but this one ran away with it. It is a little up the hill and slightly off the main tourist path from downtown Cabo, but still totally walkable and well worth the effort. And if you can plan ahead, go on a Monday. That is when they offer the Molcajete special, which is reason enough on its own to visit. I also heard their steak night is fantastic, so you really cannot go wrong. The space itself is beautiful. The dining room feels polished and inviting, and there is also a charming outdoor area if you prefer fresh air over AC. We kicked things off with the tableside guac, which was fresh, flavorful, and exactly what you want to start a meal. Even better, they brought out a complimentary little starter first, which is one of my absolute favorite restaurant traditions. In this case it was two mini empanadas, one mushroom and one cheese. Truly a Sophie's choice situation because both were excellent - hubby and I split them in half. For the main event, we split the Molcajete Monday special. You can choose your protein, and we went with steak, though chicken and (I think) shrimp were also options. It came with both corn and flour tortillas if you ask nicely, all housemade. The portion was easily enough for two. The steak was tender and cooked perfectly, sitting in a smoky, slightly spicy sauce in a traditional volcanic stone bowl. Absolutely delicious and one of those dishes you keep talking about long after the meal ends- and much to my travel companions dismay, I talked about it for many days after... Even though we were completely stuffed, I had already seen photos of the flan and could not skip it. We ordered that along with churros to share among four people. Do yourself a favor and skip the churros-- The towering flan is the star. Everyone at the table agreed it was the best we have ever had. A nearby table ordered the crème brûlée and looked genuinely jealous once they saw ours arrive. For what felt like a splurge night, the final bill was surprisingly reasonable, especially compared to US city prices. When you split dishes like we did, it feels like an incredible value for the quality. Treat yourself to this place. And if at all possible, go on a Monday. We almost went back a second time, which says everything. Bathrooms are also lovely, and there is an open kitchen. Service was great too. Treat yo-self!!!
