    Fruit and muffin for breakfast
    Nuran S.

    We stayed at hotel tesoro for five days four nights and got the all inclusive package... This was one of the restaurants that was included. we ate here a few times that week and overall liked it a lot. This also seems to be a tourist favorite, especially with the cruise people! We regularly got la cart breakfast at the lighthouse restaurant since the hotel buffet wasn't the best. Breakfast was yummy and I really liked the atmosphere here. They had the birria tacos for breakfast and those were so delicious. I almost ordered them everyday but had to try the omelet and chilaquiles as well. I would stay stick to order the Mexican dishes, they were made well and had a lot more flavor and freshness than the regular American dishes. Everything comes well done. Specify if you want something cooked rare. They like it crispy here! Service is slow here. they usually only have two female waitresses. Not all the employees speak English so touch up on your Spanish! Covid protocols were enforced and all of the staff wore masks.

    Since breakfast is included with our hotel stay at Tesoro, we decided to check out the LightHouse while we were here. The first time we dined here, we shared the Sarten Tesoro, chilaquiles, and some fruit. We were afraid that the food would take too long since we needed to go on a tour, but it was ready just in time to have a few bites. Both dishes were delightful and filling! The fruit was refreshing as well. Service was very friendly! I'm not sure what it is about Cabo, but we always got treated like VIP's and the staff always wanted a photo with us. Needless to say, we kept coming back to try more breakfast items during the rest of our stay.

    This restaurant service is 5/5. The waiter was so funny and made sure we received the best service. When my mom was in the sun they moved a whole entire umbrella for her to not get sun burnt. This to mean meant a lot because it shows they care about their guest comfort. The food was yummy! I went to this restaurant twice while in Cabo's! I got the pasta and shrimp tacos! So yummy! Their drinks are also super good!

    Stumbled on this spot walking the Marina! All I can say is wow....great dining experience on vacation. The dynamite shrimp are amazing! The Baja fish tacos were a great entree for a light lunch.

    Our first night at Cabo San Lucas we wanted to try this restaurant. It was next to our hotel. Service was super slow. It took about 20 minutes to order and took another 40 minutes to get fajitas and burger. They forgot to bring water, spices and stuff. Each time we had to wait for 20 minutes to get the stuff we asked for. Taste of the food was not really good either. I was between 2 and 3 stars. Giving 3 because stuff was nice and atmosphere of the restaurant was good. I don't think I will go and eat there again.

    Great anbiance during the day, perfect spot on the Cabo Marina

    Just loved the new menu! There isn"t t a single dish that is not near perfect. Very original too, the gourmet tacos, the eggplant lasagna, the tamarind bbq ribs, and ohhh the hibiscus crusted fish fillet over creamy rice is amazing, the desserts, and even the Caesar sakad we ordered is unique, the prices by far are the lowest in all of the Cabo marina . Live music on the weekends, great singer on friday and rock band on Saturday.

    On our anniversary cruise and docked in Cabo for the day. Of course we were in search of the best…read morefood. Walking in felt like an open concept casita. Very warm and inviting. No roof, string lighting and decor, a tree in the middle of the courtyard. Bar on one side. Covered dining tables on the other. Showed up at the perfect time. In between the lunch and dinner rush. Extremely friendly and attentive staff with expert knowledge of the menu and fabulous suggestions. What we ordered: - Peruvian Ceviche (fresh catch of the day) - Shrimp Chipotle - El Takeshi - Al pastor in fried cheese shell - Bone Marrow taco was hands down thee best! 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. And we truly enjoyed ourselves. Will be back on a return trip!

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!

My husband and I ordered a variety of tacos for dinner including the fried battered fish, fried battered shrimp, grilled octopus, al pastor, and skirt steak. The tacos come out looking very simple, but that's because they bring lots of different toppings to the table so you can create your own perfect tacos! My favorites were the fried battered fish (pescado) and al pastor -- truly outstanding! In addition to the tacos, we also tried the quesabirria quesadilla which was a solid pick, and then we ended our meal with the flan which was incredible :) I wouldn't hesitate to come back again when I'm in Cabo next time!

You can't beat the prices here either. :) Fish taco :) Shrimp taco :) Octopus taco - its amazing and so fresh, I can eat this daily They serve a container with all the fixin's - sauces, veggies, pico. Just throw the whole thing onto your taco for that extra fresh bite. Had to take a star off for slow service. I noticed they served other tables after us, which never makes you feel good.

There was some real competition for top meal, but this one ran away with it. It is a little up the hill and slightly off the main tourist path from downtown Cabo, but still totally walkable and well worth the effort. And if you can plan ahead, go on a Monday. That is when they offer the Molcajete special, which is reason enough on its own to visit. I also heard their steak night is fantastic, so you really cannot go wrong. The space itself is beautiful. The dining room feels polished and inviting, and there is also a charming outdoor area if you prefer fresh air over AC. We kicked things off with the tableside guac, which was fresh, flavorful, and exactly what you want to start a meal. Even better, they brought out a complimentary little starter first, which is one of my absolute favorite restaurant traditions. In this case it was two mini empanadas, one mushroom and one cheese. Truly a Sophie's choice situation because both were excellent - hubby and I split them in half. For the main event, we split the Molcajete Monday special. You can choose your protein, and we went with steak, though chicken and (I think) shrimp were also options. It came with both corn and flour tortillas if you ask nicely, all housemade. The portion was easily enough for two. The steak was tender and cooked perfectly, sitting in a smoky, slightly spicy sauce in a traditional volcanic stone bowl. Absolutely delicious and one of those dishes you keep talking about long after the meal ends- and much to my travel companions dismay, I talked about it for many days after... Even though we were completely stuffed, I had already seen photos of the flan and could not skip it. We ordered that along with churros to share among four people. Do yourself a favor and skip the churros-- The towering flan is the star. Everyone at the table agreed it was the best we have ever had. A nearby table ordered the crème brûlée and looked genuinely jealous once they saw ours arrive. For what felt like a splurge night, the final bill was surprisingly reasonable, especially compared to US city prices. When you split dishes like we did, it feels like an incredible value for the quality. Treat yourself to this place. And if at all possible, go on a Monday. We almost went back a second time, which says everything. Bathrooms are also lovely, and there is an open kitchen. Service was great too. Treat yo-self!!!
