Like the quesadilla better. Pastor taco. Steak quesadilla…read more Another Taco breakfast on vacation in Cabo. I found this place on Tic Tok. The treat here were the many flavors of Aqua Fresca and Horchatta. The horchata was the best one we had, very cinnamony. I had a pastor taco and a small steak quesadilla. There is some special cheese they use in mexican quesadillas that really turn me on. It's melty and chewier. But the pastor here was also excellent. We did have a very grumpy server. I think he was just covering for the regular gal while she was on break, but man, he was not happy about it.

I love tamales - love them, but am admittedly often frustrated even by the highly acclaimed spots…read morein my home of Los Angeles that claim to have a wide variety of tamales that will rival what your friend's Mexican mother or grandmother will spend hours making during the holidays. They often don't, but the Tamales here on the street in Cabo San Lucas absolutely do. These were some of the best tamales I've ever had. Star 1: How were the service and atmosphere? You've got a guy right? And he's sitting there next to two trash cans (literal trash cans). His English isn't very good but he can make do, and in one trash can he's got standard husk tamales and in the other he's got those wrapped in banana leaves with a variety of fillings. That's it. That's the tweet, and if you walk by this man with his trash cans you're doing yourself a disservice. Star. Star 2: How were the portions relative to the cost? These tamales are big, and pretty much regardless of which ones you get they're $1.00 each, which is absolutely insane. The deal of a lifetime. Star. Stars 3 and 4: How was the food? It's hard to even describe how much I loved these, but I'll try to do so in pointing out that I went two nights in a row and also had some warmed up the following day before I headed to the airport. Whether you go husk or banana leaf these are perfectly moist either fresh or warmed up, and the filling ratio delivers with flavorful meats. Amazing. Two Stars. Star 5: Would you be excited to go back? Some of the best tamales I've ever had. Star.

I had been talking about this spot like a crazy person all week while in Cabo, and on our last day…read moreI finally decided to go looking for these tamales. I did some research and had the spot narrowed down where I thought it would be, but was sad to see I was mistaken when I searched it out in the early afternoon. To my surprise, these glorious tamales don't make their appearance until later in the day and then are served until 11pm (or probably when demand dies down or they're out of stuff). I happened upon it (exactly where I thought it'd be) as we walked over for a cup of coffee and excitedly got in line to order a couple of tamales. They have several different options, but I chose to go with the cheese and pepper and the pork. Words cannot describe how amazing these tamales were. These things are MASSIVE (you could use the corn husks they wrap them in as a car cover) and by far the most delicious tamale I've had in my life. The masa is outstanding and the meat to masa ratio is great. The cheese and pepper tamale was a little spicy but still fantastic. The pork was out of this world. My mouth is salivating right now just writing about it. They were so good that I went back before the end of the night and got 2 more tamales as a nightcap. I tried the chicken and the beef and those were both amazing as well. Even though it looks shady (they pretty much serve them out of a giant bin that looks like a trash can), these are by far the best tamales you'll have in Cabo. I have such good memories that I get faintly turned on anytime I see a metal trash can now. It brings back my memory of those great tamales and I re-live the joy that I experienced that night. Do yourself a favor and try this. I had a wide range of meals while I was there and I can honestly say this was my favorite meal of the whole trip. For 20 pesos per tamale it'll likely also be the cheapest meal you have as well. I'd give this 100 stars if I could.

When you're in Cabo San Lucas, do yourself a favor and find a stand like Elote y Esquites Guasa…read moreand get yourself an elote. I'm serious. I start thinking about street corn before the plane even lands. First thing I want when I hit Cabo? Not a margarita... not a fancy dinner... give me that elote. Hot corn, lime, chili, crema, cheese man, that's the real welcome to Mexico. And there's a reason this stuff is everywhere. Corn has been at the heart of Mexican cooking for thousands of years, going all the way back to ancient Mesoamerica, and early versions of elote and esquites were already being sold as street food long before modern times. The word esquites even comes from the Nahuatl word ízquitl, meaning toasted corn. These days vendors called eloteros serve it hot off carts all over Mexico, piled with lime, chili, mayo, and cheese. So here's the rule: when in Cabo... get an elote. One bite and you'll understand why people dream about it before the plane even lands.

From the street it looks like a little hole-in-the-wall, the kind of spot you might almost miss if you're busy chasing fancy marina restaurants. But step inside and suddenly you're in on the secret. Open air, flags hanging everywhere, signatures on the walls from travelers who clearly had a very good night, and the kind of energy that says dinner might get a little rowdy. Now let's talk shrimp. Big, juicy, swimming in garlic, lime, butter, and Baja attitude. The kind of seafood that makes you stop mid-bite and look at your table like, "Yep... we picked the right place." If you love seafood with a Mexican twist, this place doesn't mess around. And then there's the legendary Bulldog drink. It's tequila, beer, citrus, and just enough mischief to make the table louder after the first round. Order one and you'll understand why people start signing their names on the walls like they just joined a Cabo fraternity. Bottom line: this isn't just dinner. It's a little Cabo adventure wrapped in garlic shrimp and cold drinks. If you want quiet elegance, go somewhere else. But if you want flavor, personality, and a story to tell later... pull up a chair. Killer line: Some restaurants serve food Maro's serves memories with a side of shrimp.

I have been coming to Maro's Shrimp House since I found it, probably on Tripadvisor at the time,…read more way back in June 2016 and we make it a must on every trip to Cabo. Even when I was in Cabo on a cruise ship last Friday (11/28), had to hole up in my cabin on my laptop and work a half day (until 11am), missing out on my family's morning excursion all with a 1pm last tender call to get back to the ship... After my wife, mother-in-law, daughter & son's excursion with well reviewed Real Baja Tours (which I arranged separately instead of through the ship), all but my son were dropped off back at the ship as they wanted to skip out on the amazingness of Maro's. Yeah, I KNOW!! CRAZY!! The driver was nice enough to drop my son off at Maro's afterwards and the timing couldn't have been more perfect, just a few minutes before their 12pm opening time. Even though, we were a few minutes early, they gladly seated us right away. And very surprisingly, we were the only ones there for a good 20 minutes. From our very first visit in 2016, it is quite clear that the only things you need order is the shrimp and lobster which are fantastic...and THE BULLDOG (basically a giant schooner of margarita with an upended Coronita standing on its drowning head)...well, no Bulldogs for the boy. Service is very efficient and the friendly staff (despite not knowing too much English, except Maro himself, of course) is very attentive to any calls we had for refills of GARLIC WITH BUTTER (soooo much garlic, it was fantastic) & my dear, dear Bulldogs. Speaking of Bulldogs, they keep track of the most Bulldogs drunken in a sitting. I believe the current leader had 22...which is a superhuman feet because I was feeling quite FINE (read: tipsy) after my two. Also speaking of Bulldogs, on a visit in 2024, my kids, one friend of theirs and I witnessed a server giving 3 ladies a lapdance when they ordered one to share. Now that's service! Lol. Having told the staff we had to get outta there at 12:30pm, they delivered our wonderful meals very promptly and after first giving us totopos (tortilla chips) with two kinds of delicious salsa (well, a salsa and a pico de gallo). We each ordered the 1/4 kilo of lobster and 1/4 medium shrimp for $24.95 USD. (Note prices on the menu are conveniently in USD.) This was more than ample for one person but we prodded on and thoroughly enjoyed it, as always. With each plate, they serve the seafood with a very tasty rice pilaf and some pieces of squash or something I still can't figure out and after 2 Bulldogs, I completely forgot to ask about. They also give you a piping hot cup of that GARLIC WITH BUTTER served over a candle to keep hot which is brilliant. There is nothing worse than eating your giant platter of lobster and shrimp and the butter starts getting cold and becomes gluey and gloppy. That stuff is so good, we asked for another cup (and unlike American restaurants, it was free). On our visit in 2024, we actually got to meet Maro himself, took a picture with him, printed and framed it at home, brought it with us on the cruise and mounted it on the wall to the right of the L.A. Dodger flag, naturally. Since there wasn't any room left to write something with a provided marker, I added my DK to the bottom of the UCLA Bruin flag hidden near the back to the left. Oh, while you might think this place is a dingey dive by the look of the joint with its millions of marked up mostly collegiate flags lining the walls and rafters, the food makes it absolutely worth a visit...or two while you're in town. So save Edith's or Hacienda Y Cucina for the evenings (unless you want what I suspect would be a super fun & roudier crowd in the evenings). HIGHLY HIGHLY HIGHLY HIGHLY RECOMMEND! Wow, that's a David K 4x HIGHLY RECOMMEND so ya better go!

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.
