    Prior to making a reservation, I had scoured the internet for every review I could possibly find about this restaurant. I came across a few reviews suggesting that the restaurant wasn't quite on par with other Michelin-starred establishments in the US. I had some reservations but decided to move forward and booked a table. After dining at the restaurant, I can confidently say that Concina de Autor exceeded our expectations. I think the restaurant took all the negative feedback to heart and refined their menu and execution. My husband and I have dined at every three-star Michelin restaurant in New York and Chicago, as well as six of the eight in California. Cocina de Autor absolutely held its own. We chose the ten-course tasting menu, and every dish was exceptional in presentation, creativity, and flavor, including the desserts. It is very rare to come across a Michelin restaurant where every course is solid. The overall ambiance and design was elegant and comparable to many Michelin-rated restaurants we've visited. With continued consistency, I have no doubt that Cocina de Autor will impress any guest who chooses to dine there.

    Heard great things about this restaurant and it did not disappoint! It is an immersive experience and the food matches the experience. We were lucky to enjoy the bar and the first 2 dish there, and then moved out to the outside dining area (our chose) to finish the dinner. Each food items was very well presented and had something special about it. Overall the menu was great and there were about two items that were just amazing. The food here is awesome and hats off for the chef. The ambiance of the restaurant is elegant yet fun. The outside dinner table are near the Koi pond which is filled with beautiful koi fishes. At the same time, they had live music which was with a harp, another elegant feature of this restaurant. She was amazing and the view of the beach and ocean was just another outstanding experience. The servers here are very friendly and great at what they do. They add to the great atmosphere and experience. The servers are top tier in my book. I would highly recommend trying this place out, especially if you are staying at the resort which the restaurant resides in.

    Signature restaurant at the Grand Velas Los Cabos. Usually 8-9 courses with dynamic and well thought out courses. Approximately an hour in a half service to two hours. Got to utilize the free child service at the resort. They provide children with dinner. Obviously not as good as what we had. Food was delicious but the service at each of the dinner restaurant are exceptional. The service brought the dinner to a whole new level.

    Innovative cuisine in an elegant yet contemporary setting--this restaurant is a culinary adventure. First, we were greeted with a lively signature cocktail and a few small appetizers in the lounge. Next, we were ushered into the beautifully appointed dining room. We opted for the premium wine pairing to accompany our tasting menu and were not disappointed. With so many interesting courses, it was wonderful to know that the wine was always a thoughtfully chosen complement to each dish. Service was superb and each course was a feat of appetizing artistry.

    Spectacular dining experience. Each dish was beautiful and had flavors that were unique and amazing. The service was stellar and the beautiful setting on the koi pond with live music made the whole experience incredible. The chef came to talk near the end of the meal and we couldn't have been more impressed. A top 10 lifetime dinner for me.

They even offered us some complimentary chips and a variety of fresh and tasty salsas. The cactus tacos and guacamole was also nice. They had nice decor and wall artwork that added to the charm. Would recommend stopping by for a taco or two if you're in the area.

    Wow! What a great experience we had at La Lupita Taco and Mezcal…read more This is a taco place. Don't expect any else on the menu except soup & salad and a couple of apps & sides. There is an indoor area or outside courtyard you can choose from. We had the pleasure of working with several Staff members including our main waiter, Marco as well as Ivan and Miriam. They were all so fun and attentive. They brought us a small serving of soup as an appetizer. My husband had a taste of the tortilla broth which had a little kick to it and I had the bean soup. Both were a nice sampling of the soup they offered. We ordered the chips & huac to start. The chips were thick and crispy. The guacamole tasted super fresh and bright. Now, the tacos are some of the best tacos we've ever eaten in MX or the US. The creativity and variety of toppings were outstanding. I really enjoyed the EL TAKESHI 190MX Rib Eye, Sesame, Hoisin, Ginger, Chives, Crispy Shallots, Flour tortilla. The meat was cooked perfectly and the flavor they developed was delicious. I also ordered the MEXICAN FLANK STEAK $150MX. Fresh Chiapas Cheese , Arugula, Crispy Leek & Potato, Macha Sauce, Yellow Corn tortillas. All these flavors worked so well together. One of the tastiest tacos they have on the menu is a cheese based tortilla taco called CHEESE CRUST PASTOR $100MX. Talk about a flavor bomb. Marinated Pork, Asadero Cheese Crust, Cilantro, Onion, Pineapple. My husband also ordered the CHIPOTLE SHRIMP $165MX. Shrimp, Chipotle Cream, fried parsley, flour tortilla. He loved it. For my Arizona friends, they will be opening a Scottsdale location in 2027. I can wait. Add this to your must try restaurants. Also, they just opened a location in Dallas Texas.

    It's my birthday week, and since we're staying at Solaz, we saved this Michelin restaurant for my…read morebirthday dinner. It ended up being the perfect choice. Not only was the food excellent, but our server, Sergio, gave us a mini masterclass on tequila, mezcal, and yes--even Jose Cuervo. It made the whole experience that much richer. We started with two cocktails: La Rubarosa and La Damiana. The Rubarosa was surprisingly smooth and light - one of those drinks you don't expect to enjoy as much as you do. For starters, we ordered the bluefin tostada and the roasted beet salad. The corn tortilla on the tostada was honestly the tastiest I've ever had. Perfect texture, perfect flavor. For our mains, we chose the bean tamale and the seafood rice. The tamale came with an exceptional mole - truly the star of the plate. The tamale itself was fine, but the mole absolutely stole the show. Did you know that true mole has over 40 ingredients? The seafood rice was flavorful, masterfully prepared, and a generous portion. For dessert, we ordered the horchata ice cream, which was lovely. But the real surprise was the tres leches cake they brought out for my birthday. I was already stuffed, but I still managed to eat half and took the rest back to the room. Would we return? Absolutely - especially if we're back in the area. And if we had to pick just one restaurant at Solaz, this would be our top choice.

    We stayed at the Solaz hotel for a wedding in June and we did some research on the restaurants. We…read moremade dinner reservations at Al Pairo for one of the evenings. It's right next to the lobby when you arrive. Has a nice open concept and you can either sit inside or outside, we opted for outside with a beautiful view of the water. The service is great, we started with oysters, soft shell crab tacos, and we each all got a dish. The octopus, I got the green mole, fish, and steak with mole. One of my friends got the sangria and it was refreshing. At the end they give you some various candies. I wouldn't say it's too pricey but overall it was a decent meal and good to have to not leave property.

It is gorgeous here and is reminiscent of the 80's with jazz music playing close to the beach. The Sea Grill is so chill and elegant at the same time and SUPER fancy!! Our waiter is very knowledgeable about fish and he knows what is gluten free and cheese free. We have homemade gluten free bread to start our exquisite meal! The amberjack crudo is deliciously refreshing. We ordered a bottle of Flowers Chardonnay and it was 4 times the price in California. Pretty crazy but it's kind of like being in Vegas where everything is super jacked. I had the octopus which had a pineapple glaze which is weirdly inventive. It was a little too slimy for me but bf liked it. I wanted his grilled prawn which he shared a lot of with me. It was A+ We were stuffed but they brought me a trifecta of sorbets for my birthday.

The server was nice but didn't speak English so I had trouble communicating with her (but not her fault since I'm the one in Mexico!) - so not as tourist friendly as some of the places in town center or by the resorts.

We were able to land reservations right before sunset since we put notifications on and responded right away. We were seated right at the edge, which gave me an unobstructed view of the ocean! Coupled with the view was live music streaming throughout. What was ordered: Redsnack Mocktail - Liked the sweet and salty meld of flavors Fresh Oysters - Smooth, meaty, & fresh! Street Corn - Corn ribs with great seasoning Mashed Potato - Creamy and garlic forward Grilled Seasnapper - Amazing! Totally recommend that you split this! Stingray Empanadas - Comes in a box which was a fun way to present this dish! Customer service was on point and they even offered me a blanket because it was starting to get chilly at night!

The gorgeous view, the wonderful staff, and the amazing food made each of our meals a magical experience. When my daughter-in-law informed our server that she is allergic to shellfish, he gave her options to some of the menu items (the shrimp was served separately in our order of shrimp Mac & cheese) and assured her that her food was safe. We ordered: Pan Seared Totoaba (fish) - my husband said it was the best fish he's ever had! Catch of the Day - Sea Bass - it was incredible! Red Snapper - my son said it was the best fish he's ever had! Prime Beef Filet - my daughter-in-law said it was the best filet she's ever had. The slices of vermouth-soaked pears were delicious! We shared the Grilled oysters, Mac & Shrimp, Street Corn, and Mashed Potatoes. The only imperfection was the 40+ minute wait for our desserts to arrive. Just as we were thinking about canceling our dessert orders, a manager came to apologize for the delay and comped the cost of our desserts, which were actually so good that we decided it was worth the wait! We had the buffet breakfast at this same restaurant and it was also a 5 star experience!!
