    We came here for my daughter 17th birthday. She got a New York steak, which she said was very delicious. She said it had flavor and it was still moist even though she likes hers well done. Now I am not a steak person so I wanted to try their mussels but unfortunately they ran out so I got the portobello mushroom burger it was so delicious I was beyond shocked that it was so good. The service was amazing they were attentive and made sure I still had a great meal even though I didn't want steak. It was beautiful inside and outside. The outside had a nice garden area for pictures and the inside was nice and intimate. Pricing was very reasonable for a New York Stake, Burger, Mocktail, Glass of wine and a slice of birthday cake it came out to roughly 70$.

    Perfectly clean and pristine washrooms.

    I should also note, we have been fine dining around Cabo for a few days. La Vaca Tinta is by far our favorite.

    I cannot give a 1000 stars, but I want to! Yum, yum, yum! Service is 8000000/10, I felt like I was the queen and everyone was there for me! Ever had that attentive server that was just on point? That's here! I had it all! I was fortunate to have contact and conversation with every single person that works her and I've never felt like more a part of a family! I didn't know my first server was the owner, Ulises! we chatted about the wine and what I liked,why? Because he treated me like everyone! He is so humble and amazing! I didn't find out he was the owner until well later in my meal! He's not flashy and is down to earth! His wife,Estrella, is as so attentive and gorgeous and kept asking me if I needed a blanket because she was cold and was worried about me! (See pics to see how gorgeous she is! ). Check instagram for my pic! She made sure I wasn't cold the entire time, mama, Jessie is fine! Recommendation for wine was on point!l (of course the owner, Ulises was the one to recommend the most flavorful wine! Casa madeno and it was superb! Cab, Merlot, y tempeanillo, Just flowed ever so perfectly! Don't judge me on my whole bottle! NY strip was ordered and was cooked to perfection! Flavorful and get in my mouth! Baked potato with chives, bacon (a whole strip!), butter, and sour cream, perfectly accompanied the steak! It's very few and far between that I feel like family, but I will say that when I come back, they will remember me and I will be completely welcome! I feel like I'm the only person in the world that has ever been to this place and it's the best feeling. Macarenko made my banana flambé and holy Jesus was this amazing! He is fantastic! Check the pics of him behind the bar! Every single person has made me feel on top of the world in this roof top paradise! No, there isn't a view of the ocean, but when the food is this good what do you need? Fresh air and booze flowing is all you need ! When I come back to Cabo, my family will be here for me! Jessie will be back my friends!

    You. Should. Go. Here! Last night we had an amazing meal and service at La Vaca Tinta. From the moment we sat down the service was top tier. The meal was excellent with our steaks cooked to perfection and served along wonderful veggies. Would recommend to anyone looking for a new restaurant.

    Literally the best steak we have ever had in Cabo and probably ever! Very reasonably priced for the quality of food! Owners were so nice and explained where they get the meat and how quality it is. We highly recommend!!

    Good stuff and really reasonable. Mark did a good job and really made the meal fun and unforgettable! Congrats on your land purchase Mark and good luck in the next phases of development! La VACA TINTA is all outdoor seating and on the second floor maybe an 8-10 minute walk from the Mango Deck back towards town. They had some phenomenal specials the night we visited but we went with some of the basics on the menu which were the pork ribs and ribeye! The meat and cheese tray for an app was great and included some juicy olives, grapes and unique cheese! Absolutely loved the stuffed mushroom and the veggies were grilled to perfection! My only suggestion is lose the awkward chat at the end from the bill lady and credit card terminal regarding taking a .48 cent charge off the check if you want to leave an extra one dollar in tip. LOL Cabo folks never cease to amaze me and the little antics they play but I get a kick out of it so go and enjoy and make sure you have that extra dollar if you don't want to pay the forty eight cent charge on your check hahaha!

    We had a wonderful meal here. We shared the large filet and each got sides. My portobello was amazing. We ate every bite. The price was reasonable and the service from Macarengo was fun and tip top. We are locals so for sure we plan to visit their new location coming soon!

    Our friends recommended this amazing restaurant. The service was amazing and the food was excellent! The ambiance was amazing and was a little open kitchen and small area for eating. We enjoyed speaking with the other patrons and the owners. We will be back next time we are in town.

We first heard about this restaurant in June & went for my friend's bday. We had wonderful service & the chef is 5 stars!! Needless to say when we came here in October for my birthday we had to make my special dinner there. They did not disappoint!! The chef sent out a special appetizer on the house and after our fantastic dinner, the bar tender put on a special presentation with fire and a tower of glasses and served us a hot shot! Over the top!!! If you are looking for a place to have a great dinner for a special occasion or just because you want to experience the perfection of Desierto Azul, I highly recommend it. You will not be disappointed!

We ordered the guacamole with fried rib eye (chicharrones) and it was amazingggg. So tender and delicious. For entrees two of us split the tomahawk. We highly recommend! They serve it tequila flambé at the table! And we asked for medium rare which they cooked perfectly. The other two had the fish of the day and octopus tostadas which they loved. Their margaritas (Cadillac) were fantastic as well. Overall we were really happy with the food and service. We were too full for dessert but will definitely be coming back next year!

    Horrible Fat-Laden Beef Rib…read more Ordered the beef rib, which is supposedly their speciality. When it was served, I was confronted by a large bone almost completely encased in slimy fat. I called over the waitress, who immediately retrieved the plate and brought me another. It was just as bad. I had to saw through all the fat to retrieve a small portion of meat. The worst money I've ever spent. When the waitress asked me how everything was, I told her it was horrible and that I wished I'd ordered something else. She was indifferent. I would have thought she would have offered some reduction from our $400 family bill, but nope. I won't ever eat there again. If you do, regardless of their hype, stay away from their "speciality," the beef rib.

    Chamuyo was a top shelve experience!…read more Chamuyo is located on Ave Del Pescador, which is one of the main streets that connects the city to the beach. It is about a five minute walk to or from the busy beach area where all of the popular beach clubs are located. The restaurant ambiance is awesome at night; fantastic lighting in an open air dinning environment. They also have chill live entertainment. Regarding the food, it was delicious. We ordered the rib eye steak plate, which came with vegetables and thinly sliced potatoes. We also ordered a lobster tail. House bread was complimentary, and it was very good. Our order was enough for us to share. Both the steak and lobster were cooked perfectly. Chamuyo also has a full bar, Mexican beers, and a few IPA selections. Regarding the service, it was excellent. Our servers were on it the whole time. We look forward to returning to Cabo just to have another meal at Chamuyo. It was a top shelve experience!
