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!

We're not sure what caused it--possibly the salsa that had been sitting out during the rain--but it was hard to ignore. I'll leave it at that. It may have been a one-off situation, but I'm unsure if we'd return. If we do come back to Cabo and decide to try this place again and get sick a second time, that would be the final straw.

Extremely friendly and attentive staff with expert knowledge of the menu and fabulous suggestions.

My mouth is watering just recalling the melt in your mouth, buttery deliciousness of the marrow sitting on top. Loved the salsa sampler they brought to the table. The depths of flavor and heat were a fabulous compliment to the food. I've seen mixed reviews about La Lupita. I happen to agree with the most positive recounts. Every single staff member from the host to the waiters to the other servers walking around were extremely friendly and helpful. Overall A+ experience. Drinks and food were delicious.

We kicked off our dinner with a complimentary cup of broth which was delicious and very umami. Then we got the crunchy volcano off of the appetizer menu plus a variety of tacos: santo pastor, cheese crust pastor, Nayarit style fish, duck with mole, and beef fillet & bone marrow. Out of everything we tried, the beef fillet & bone marrow was a definite highlight -- the addition of the bone marrow adds so much richness and flavor! Other than that, I did enjoy the crunchy volcano tostada and both of the pastor tacos, plus my husband absolutely LOVED the cheese crust pastor! The biggest miss in my opinion was the duck with mole, as I wasn't a huge fan of the hibiscus compote it comes with... After we had our fill of tacos, we ended our dinner with the flan. It was good but the texture was more akin to that of a cheesecake than a typical flan (more dense). Overall it was nice to try the food here, but I did prefer the tacos at Tacos Gardenias!

Waiter told us it was good for 4 and it was definitely that, with leftovers. We also tried a pasta pomodero and it was yummy with a little kick. The imperial shrimp are a must get if you like shrimp. These are bacon wrapped, jalapeno stuffed. Yum! I would also highly recommend the tampiquena steak - Mexican style steak with a chile relleno. Best starters were queso fundido (MUST GET!) and the caprese was also very fresh! My one draw back was the temperature, but I know that's hard to fix.

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
