Unfortunately, this means having your back to the activity of the restaurant. The bar stool height to bar is off so that impacted our dining experience. However, the tables looked very nice and clearly this restaurant is good for large parties. We enjoyed the complimentary basket of crostini and spread. We've never had Octopus prepared like the Octopus Tapas we ordered and not having it breaded was a nice change of pace. We also shared the Traditional Chicken Mole. It was on the spicier side of the Moles we've had. We enjoy our time, but will continue to discover as many restaurants in the area that we can.

This was our third visit to Café des Artistes - this time to celebrate my birthday - and it…read morereminded me why this is one of our favorite restaurants in Cabo. The menu is an elegant blend of Mexican and French cuisine, and once again, it did not disappoint. I started with a very smooth Patrón martini. For appetizers, we ordered the tuna tartare and the morels, and for our mains, we had the red snapper and the totoaba. We skipped dessert, but since it was my birthday, they surprised me with a stunning presentation of coffee macarons (see photo). As always, every dish looked like a piece of art, and the live saxophone in the background added the perfect touch to the evening. Will we be back? Absolutely. Thank you for another wonderful night, Café des Artistes.

My Expectations were shattered!…read more The experience here was pure magic ! The lighting at the entry way coupled with a very pleasant welcome in from the host to a place that is hypnotic, classy, warm, romantic and transitions you to a dreamed about dinner. This is paired with a pianist softly playing as you enter and being seated. We were seated on what was like a peninsula from the restaurant on to the small body of water. Next would be the arrival of the Sommelier to offer their best beverage of delight. The start of it all, a menu that was specially prepared with both Vegan and Unrestricted selections. This is next level in fine dining! My choice of dishes were: 1. Laberinto cactus and charred avocado 2. Mushroom risotto with black mole. 3. Asian-style roasted cabbage with Jerusalem artichoke' mousseline and Asian sauce. 4. Veggie enchiladas, stuffed with veggies. 5. Red fruits sorbet 6. Dessert Yes Six courses and pinky in the air fancy! So, until the next one, Bye-Bye!

Our first night in San Jose del Cabo we went downtown looking for somewhere to eat. We were hoping…read moreto grab tacos at Lupita's, but the wait was 2-3 hours (it was Sunday night). We were starving and Choriarte had one table left (albeit oddly in the corner with stools too high for the table - but we were happy not to have to wait). There was a live band and people seemed to be having a good time. The mains on the second page of the menu were VERY expensive and we didn't think would be worth it, so we just ordered a bunch of items off the first page of the menu (starters & street bites) which were more the type of food that we were looking for anyways. The tacos and empanadas were actually quite good, better than we were expecting for somewhere touristy. We ordered one of each and all were good. No standout, but everything was solid.

As a vegetarian, we ordered: - Cauliflower Symphony: 10/10 MUST ORDER and comes in pretty large quantity - Gorgonzola Salad: 9/10 recommended by our server and it was great. -1 point for small quantity. For a salad, I was hoping a little more - Veggie Taco: 4/10 Would skip as its lacking some major flavor and the veggies are just too overpowering and don't really go with the taco - Sparkling Lemonade: 10/10 so delicious and refreshing. Not too sweet, just perfect.
