    I wandered into La Lupita Taco & Mezcal the way a man wanders into trouble casually, innocently,…read moreand completely unprepared for what happens next. Now let's talk about the mole. Proper Mexican mole the kind built from dried chiles, nuts, seeds, and even a whisper of chocolate thick, dark, mysterious stuff that tastes like it took a committee of grandmothers three days to invent. I took one bite and nearly wrote home about it. Rich, smoky, a little sweet... the sort of sauce that makes a man pause mid-chew and reconsider every sauce he has ever trusted before. Then the tacos arrived, and that's when things got serious. These weren't tidy little tacos meant for polite company. No sir. These were the kind where the juice runs down your hands and you stop worrying about manners because flavor has taken command of the ship. La Lupita is known around Cabo for its creative tacos and massive mezcal selection, and judging by the crowd and the music humming through the place, folks already know the secret. The staff goes the extra mile with every little detail, and before long you realize you didn't just stop for tacos you discovered a whole new method of happiness, served on a tortilla.

    The food was honestly mid. I will say the esquites were really good, but let's be real, that's a…read morehard dish to mess up. We were recommended this place by our hotel (ME Hotel), so we came in with high expectations. What we ordered: *Two esquites *Two tacos *Beans *Two micheladas *One spicy margarita Our total came out to $150, which completely shocked me. The place itself does not have a high-end vibe or atmosphere, so the pricing just didn't match the experience at all. The service was nice, I'll give them that, but the food did not justify the cost. I've had way better tacos for way less. And trust me, I've had a lot of tacos in my lifetime. It honestly feels like this place is taking advantage of tourists with these prices.

The fish tacos were amazing and they had a 2 for one deal on those. I also had a shrimp taco, al pastor, and my favorite, chorizo with beans and cheese. My wife even had 5 tacos, and that isn't like her. It was fresh and delicious. If you're in Cabo it's just an 8 minute walk from Medano Beach. Get away from all the tourist traps and come here for some amazing tacos and some peace and quiet. Also, the service was very friendly and helpful. They even made me a little habanero and onion mix that I put on all my food. My wife ...not so much.

I find it one of the best ways to satiate my need for variety. When looking around for taco shops in Cabo, I found 1 & Only thru TripAdvisor. I wasn't aware, but this is a very small mom and pop type taco shop. We actually ordered one of each taco, so we were able to sample them all. They only have a few tables outside. We were the only ones here, so no problem grabbing a seat. All the tacos were fresh and delish. The fish and shrimp were crispy, the pork and beef smokey. They also have us chips and three different salsas. I actually ordered the passionfruit margarita, but got the tamarind one instead. It was waaay too sweet for me, so I didn't bother asking for a new one as I figured it would probably be too sweet as well. Very cute small taco shop. Definitely worth checking out for a snack.
