    The name is Tamarindos Centro, and is part of the Tamarindos farm to table restaurant. Very nice Patio with amazing trees and cozy lightening. The food is really good and healthy, lots of veggies and some nice dishes. Had the Pasta Pesto, Quails, Octopus, Arrugula Pear salad. Guaba cheese cake. Only mexican wines, that limits options.

    Excellent food and wonderful ambiance. Love the 100+ yr old tree accented basket lanterns. Lighted agave plants and exposed walls. They surprised us with a little tasting of tortilla soup before our main meal came out. A nice touch. Food sourced from a nearby farm. We chatted with the owner and you could see his passion for creating a great experience for his patrons. Highly recommend!

    5 for ambiance 4.5 for food 5 for service 4 for price Tequila is a romantic, hidden garden dining experience in the heart of San Jose del Cabo. If you are reading this - order the tartar. More on this later. We found out about the place through a video blog on YouTube, Claire Bahn. She had a video about top 5 places in San Jose del Cabo. As we trekked through the fun Art Walk, evading the owners of the pharmacias trying to sell us pain pills and Cialis, we found the restaurant not too far off the beaten path. The ambience was really calm and as we walked in we were greeted with a smile. The food was fresh and delicious. HIGHLIGHT The yellowtail tartar with toasted sunflower seeds was the best tartar we have ever had. We also had the caprese salad. I ordered the seafood linguini which had shrimp and mussels. I never had ordered muscles in my entire life, so I wanted to be adventurous. I read some reviews on Swarm that the shrimp is great here, so I took a chance. Glad I did! My wife ordered the sea bass. It was cooked to perfection, but could have used some herbiness or a drizzle of something to get another layer of complexity. Jorge, the main manager or owner, talked to us and wanted to get to know us. He really took an interest in us and took in what we were saying. We realized he owned restaurants in our old neighborhood of Encino.

    Roasted Caesar and arugula beet salads. Loved the rustic dishes

    A delightful surprise just off the SW corner of the San Jose plaza (2 blocks west). Lush tropical jungle setting with ambient lighting, nice Mexican music (not annoying like most places), friendly staff and excellent chef. Menu is creative and varied using fresh local ingredients. Homemade tortillas made to order for each party. They closed for six months due to Covid and just reopened Nov 1 so support this great restaurant!

    Beautiful, enchanted garden. That's really all you need to know. The food was good...super fresh, but could've have used a bit more seasoning for my taste. Beautiful presentation. Wine list limited, but the management went out of their way to please our group. So service A+. I was there for a girls night, but it's terribly romantic, perfect for a date night/special occasion. The courtyard is just so stunningly captivating and beautifully lit, I wouldn't really care what I ate or drank. Looking forward to returning with my husband some day.

    Ahi Tuna Amazing!!!

    VERY, very glad we decided to dine at Tequila. Definitely deserves a 5-star rating. We had the crab cake appetizer that was unreal and the clams that were perfect. My wife had the linguini dish which was nice but will have a different dish next visit but the seafood in it was awesome. Now... I had the catch of the day which was Ahi Tuna. It was a big portion as shown in a he photo. I didn't want rare but medium-rare. They nailed it! The herb seasoning was so good. I encourage you to give this a try. Being from Arizona I look for awesome seafood when near the ocean and Tequila was the best we had during our 10 day trip. Thank you Tequila and Nacho (server).

    Went there for a late lunch. It was not very busy. Service was very prompt and friendly…read more Food was excellent, including some great vegetarian options. 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.

    Such a beautiful property to arrive to, set away from the main roads of Cabo in the jungle with…read morebeautifully lit trees and landscaping. There is a cute little boutique bus when you pull up you can shop at. As you walk through the jungle on a beautiful cement path there are tree houses/rooms. As you walk up to ACRE it has a very grand beautiful entrance with staff greeting you and ready to seat you. The service was wonderful and the the food was divine. We ordered the bread balls and crispy rice to start. The crispy rice was my favorite! We had steak as our main with fries and sweet Potato. I would suggest trying the fish, our neighbors ordered it and it looked delicious (also confirmed very tasty!). We had the green margarita, wine, espresso martini and an affogato for dessert. Everything including the service was exceptional. I would definitely recommend this place for small or large parties.

    I would give Acre 4.5 stars -- 5 stars for overall ambiance / environment and 4 stars for the food!…read more Acre is a truly unique restaurant / resort in Cabo as it feels like you've stepped into a tropical oasis! The walk from the entrance to the restaurant itself is gorgeous with lush greenery, and the restaurant feels like an extension of all the surrounding natural beauty. In terms of food, we started with the hamachi strawberry crudo and crispy rice bites (with tuna and caviar). Both of these dishes were so delicious -- the hamachi crudo was fresh and light, and the crispy rice bites were decadent especially with the addition of caviar on top. Then, my husband and I shared the signature short rib with a side of truffle fries (which are shaped like the filmstrip fries at Disneyland if you know what I'm talking about!). Both of these items were solid and the short rib was super tender, though I wish the fries came with more aioli on the side. Finally, since we were on our minimoon post-wedding, the staff gave us a complimentary panna cotta dessert to celebrate! The gesture was very kind, but the panna cotta itself was a bit too stiff and not as soft as I would have liked.
