    Coconut Shrimp
    Pa Nhia H.

    The coconut shrimp was dry and disappointing. The shrimp taco and fish taco were decent. I expected the tacos to be more traditional, but I guess they made it this way to be more for a foreigner's taste. The guac was my favorite. It was very flavorful and tasted very fresh.

    I freaking LOVED THIS PLACE best shrimp and octopus ceviche I've ever had! Food tastes so damn fresh and the first bite got me hooked! First time visiting Los Cabos and when I got off the plane I was hungry, tired and it was too hot to function! I ended up here through asking one of the locals randomly and they said this was the place to go and man oh man did it set the bar for the rest of the trip. I was so reluctant to try other places because my heart was stuck on La Palapa but on the way out of Los Cabos please believe I made it happen. From the shrimp tacos, to the seafood paella, to the beef tacos and ceviches, AMAZE BALLS!!! Highly recommend to those who need somewhere to eat.

    Missed flight had to stay over extra night at the airport hotel and found this gem. Address is incorrect in yelp. It's next to Budget Car Rental. Guac is good. The green enchiladas are really good. Very good service!

    Everyone's food was amazingly great! Chills relleno plate was huge and so so so good. Milanesa de pollo and steak milanesa was one of the best I've had.

    Not impressed might as will go back to LA for tacos at Taco Bell These had tomatoes and lettuce on the tacos and the meatball no taste we wanted street tacos. The guacamole was good and the Waiter was nice just disappointed with the tacos

    Decent Mexican restaurant near the airport. Food wasn't anything too special, but the guacamole was indeed delicious.

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.

We had our wedding there so these are my sentiments on that. From start to finish, the team went truly above and beyond. Mariana, our day-of planner, was exceptional-- calm & proactive. She anticipated needs before they arose and ensured the entire day flowed seamlessly. Ernesto, the property manager, was equally incredible. He guided us through the wine selections with care and expertise and was hands-on throughout the reception--circulating among guests, refilling glasses, and making sure everyone felt taken care of (perhaps a little too well, in the best way). The execution of the wedding was flawless. Everything we envisioned and described was brought to life exactly as we had hoped--if not better. Dinner was a dream: a long, elegant table set beneath the passion fruit vines, surrounded by the sounds and scents of the farm and garden. The reception under the stars felt intimate and enchanting. Mariana recommended soft lighting along the path to the restrooms so guests could move safely and comfortably--a small detail that speaks volumes about the level of care. She even set them up for us as we brought some beautiful Luminary bags from the states - guests loved this touch. Our guests could not stop praising the venue's natural beauty. The smells of the garden, the warmth of the farm, and the effortless elegance of the setting made the evening unforgettable. Dancing all night in the banana grove is a memory we will carry with us forever. The vibe was natural and authentic, unlike some other venues that seem commercial - so this fit us perfectly. We are endlessly grateful to the Tamarindos team for creating such a meaningful, stunning, and joy-filled experience. This venue is truly special, and we cannot thank them enough.

He took our order but never returned to check on us. Thankfully, the other servers were attentive and made sure we were taken care of. Unfortunately, I did not care for the Pata de Mula. The texture was strange, and it had a funky smell, which made me a little concerned about getting sick afterward. The red snapper, however, was excellent. Perfectly seasoned, crispy on the outside, and moist inside. The seafood soup was another highlight, with generous portions of real crab, octopus, fish, and shrimp. Lots of seafood in every bite! Overall, there were definitely some hits and misses. The snapper and seafood soup were delicious, but the Pata de Mula and service from our waiter were disappointing.

Their recommendation to order the appetizer sampler was spot on--the fundido, quesadilla, empanadas, and sopes were all fantastic and perfect for sharing.
