    acai bowl

    Service was great food was even better. A lot of vegan/vegetarian friendly options and each food item on the menu has a story. The setting was nice it felt different than most of the places around the area. Everything was made fresh and the drinks were very refreshing, overall great experience.

    This is the cutest place ever!! We were welcomed with such great hospitality. It is owned by husband and wife and they brought us lots of complimentary starters made by her and the food was designed to perfection. Everything was so fresh and tasted so good. They seem like such a passionate couple and have such a cool story for the restaurant. Overall amazing experience!!!

    Tropical Kitchen is a little hidden gem in old Cabo. This family run, boho vegan café takes pride in thier food - all sauces and dressings and plant based milks are all made in house with love. What stood out was not only the kind service but the complimentary Hibiscus Flower Pastor and is not to missed. Seriously this topping is crack and can be added to any item on thier menu. I told the owner he should sell it in a tub because it's that good. I opted for the Xcacrel Acai Smothie Bowl and my hubby had the Monte Cristo. You can taste and see the love they put into thier creations. With were satisfying and the owner even offered additional seed toppings because I devoured what I had in my bowl. If you're looking for a healthy, laid back, boho vibe cafe away from the hustle and bustle of Cabo, make the short trek inward to TC. This place is sure not to be missed. Oh and the music playing was .

    Charming, visually lovely vegan spot in Cabo Great vegan spot in Cabo, absolutely adored the ambiance of the restaurant, they had a lovely eclectic selection to choose from, the food was imaginary, so aesthetically appealing and immensely flavorful.

    The vibrant interior atmosphere of the restaurant.

    This is hands down a hidden gem in downtown Cabo San Lucas! I was searching for a unique restaurant on Yelp and this one quickly caught my attention by their vibrant atmosphere and unique foods. The atmosphere was warm and inviting, and I loved the murals, plants, and tropical bird mobiles decorating the walls and ceilings. The cook/owner of the restaurant is a really friendly guy and we had great conversations about his family and the concept of the restaurant. The food is purely vegetarian and vegan, now I'm a carnivore but I still loved all of it! One of the things that stood out to me was how they provide authentic Mexican food with healthy and eye-catching detail. I was not disappointed and will go there anytime I'm in Cabo!

    My favorite place on earth. Tropical Kitchen is a hidden gem in Cabo San Lucas. You'll find this fruity oasis when you escape the crowds and explore deeper into the city. I've visited the Tropical Kitchen twice now - once with my brother and another with my parents. Both visits left us as lifelong supporters of this concept. It's hard not to be when the business is ran by the sweetest husband and wife duo - #couplegoals. Every item on their menu is handcrafted and made fresh to order. I've tried both their acai bowls and smoothies and each left me wanting more. The presentation is also top notch! You won't find a more aesthetic menu item in all of Cabo. The açaí bowls are served on hand painted platters and the smoothies come with their own tiki hut. While the Tropical Kitchen specializes in smoothies and acai bowls, they recently launched additional menu items like burritos, tortas, and chilaquiles. I'm obsessed with this place and wouldn't make a trip to Cabo without at least one to two visits!

    Cute place! We came by earlier today and the food presentation was so beautiful. The smoothie was so refreshing and not too sweet at all! It was refreshing and it had nice bits of chunks of fruits to it. There were also coconuts and chia seeds. We also had cold brew frappe it was very delicious and refreshing! My boyfriend ordered this. Additionally we ordered the green chiqualies and the xcalel açaí bowl. We really liked the chiqualies but the açaí bowl was a bit sour! It tasted healthy tho :-) next time we're around we would try the smoothie bowl.

    Amazing breakfast and service! One of my best meals in Cabo! Beautiful plates and interesting condiments

    Loved this place so much we went here twice on our trip to Cabo! The interior is gorgeous and inviting to local birds. We had excellent service from the owners both times we went and the food was incredible. I highly recommend ordering anything with the hibiscus "al pastor" (they bring out a bit for you to try with chips when you arrive). It was so delicious I'm going to attempt to recreate it at home! I also ordered the Tropical Waffles on our second visit to which I also highly recommend (my boyfriend says they were the best waffles he's ever had)! We had people in our group that were vegan, vegetarian, gluten free, and had no dietary restrictions, and everyone was so satisfied with their meal. Can't recommend this place enough!

    My friends and I were in Cabo for four days and after stumbling upon this hidden gem, we visited three times. It's clear the owners (Jazmin and Allan) are passionate about their dream -- they have made Tropical Kitchen a warm, inviting place, with tons of healthy vegan options. They welcomed us into their restaurants as if it was their own home and I loved getting to know them both. They generously shared their history, ambitions, and love for cooking -- which is all based in the chef/owners hometown in Mexico. Everything we had on the menu was delicious (including fresh fruit smoothies) and had a beautiful presentation. I was so happy to be able to take home a bottle of their traditional chile de arbol salsa for myself! We also went to their newer venture (Selva Taqueria), which is 2 blocks away, and enjoyed a lovely taco dinner and agua fresca. I am already excited to visit them on my next trip to Cabo to see their dreams and menus grow!

    Sooo fun inside

    Obsessed with tropical kitchen...wish I could clone this cafe for my hometown! We were in Cabo for 4 days and came here 3 days in a row. The food and smoothies are crafted with love and the owners are passionate about their business. Love the complimentary chip and dip, huevos rancheros, the BEANS omg, and the QUETZAL smoothie (packed with phenomenal greens).

    the freshest açaí bowl I've ever had.  Mexican coffee with cinnamon.

This place pleasantly surprised me. I ordered the bacon-wrapped shrimp in sauce, and it was excellent. What really caught me off guard, though, were the vegetables on the side. They were so flavorful and perfectly prepared that I was genuinely impressed, which is saying a lot because vegetables are rarely memorable. The shrimp themselves were delicious and cooked perfectly. We also had the coconut-crusted lobster, which was very good as well. The only minor drawback was that the mashed potatoes were a little cold when they arrived. Overall, I'd rate the experience a 4.5 out of 5, which is high praise coming from me. Despite being in a tourist area, The Office delivered flavorful, well-prepared food and exceeded my expectations. I would definitely return.

Funny origin story: we were just looking for coffee on our first morning, and somewhere in that search decided -- hey, we're on vacation, why not find the best espresso martini spot instead? Best decision of the trip. Outpost delivered in a huge way. Bonus on a humid August day: They have AC inside. The space itself has real personality: exposed brick, framed portraits of aristocrats with dog heads on the walls, and a couple of TVs built into ornate frames just looping a crackling fireplace all day. Great 70s/80s soundtrack running the whole time too. Farm-to-table breakfast with genuinely clean ingredients -- huevos rancheros and avocado toast with a poached egg were both excellent. And the shrimp omelette had a red sauce that send the flavors over the top. The drinks are the real headliner though. I had them make my espresso martinis with reposado tequila instead of vodka, and it completely elevated the drink. My friend Kandy would usually start with an espresso martini too before moving on to their lavender martini, which became her go-to for the rest of the weekend. We also had a Carajillo done tableside, flambé style -- a full 3-minute production of lighting it on fire and pouring it back and forth before serving over ice. Genuinely one of the coolest drink presentations I've seen. Eneas took care of us all three days and was fantastic: warm, attentive, clearly loves his job. Alberto was great too. Bartender Rigo made every drink perfectly, tequila swaps and all. You can tell Chef Anna runs a tight kitchen and Jefe Calixto keeps the whole place running smoothly. If you're anywhere near the Marina, this is a must. We'll be back next time we're in Cabo.

We were able to get last-minute reservations and was warmly greeted when walking into the location by staff members and quickly seated. We chose to sit upstairs where they had a view of the street so it was a great place to people watch. The overall ambience is super cute and aesthetic and a great place to just kind of chill and have some food and drink drinks. I got one of the smash burgers and it was really good. The fries were really good. Also, the burger had a good taste and the food came out pretty quickly. My wife got the shrimp which were OK, but I would have to say that they were overcooked so they were a little on the chewy side. I would probably not get the shrimp again, but I would get the burger again. We also got some drinks, but we forgot to take pictures because we are so thirsty by the time we got to the restaurant so we drank them really quick, but they were delicious with a great flavor. This is a touristy place, so the cost of the dinner was definitely on the higher end for what we got, but overall the location was really good for a little pregame before stepping out into nightlife

I didn't want to do excursions so I found some alternative things to do and one of the things that was highly recommended was a massage at the Sandbar. I was able to go online to book and pre-pay. I posted the information in our Facebook group and ironically there were more people that were interested in going. We had a van of 10 people and then I think there was an Uber with two more people, so 12 people total from my group went to the Sandbar at around 11 AM on Saturday. When I got there, I asked the lady that was checking us in if it was possible to get a discount or a referral bonus or something because of the number of people that I bought in and she said "no" and I guess I had no choice but to accept that. I probably should've asked in advance, but I know a lot of businesses will offer discounts when you have a group. When I tell you the massage was amazing, I loved every single minute of my 90 minute full body massage. I loved being able to listen to the ocean and just the serenity was so good. Afterwards I changed into my clothes, tipped my masseuse then went downstairs to ask for water because every time I've gotten a massage it's followed by water so that you can hydrate. When I asked the hostess about getting water I was told you have to go to the bar and pay for it. I asked her why would we pay for water when we just spent money on a massage? She told me that only the foot massage comes with a drink. Well the foot massage is significantly cheaper so I don't understand that, but OK. She then said to just go talk to the people at the bar and as I was talking to the young lady at the bar, this guy came over, I'm guessing he was the manager, Pepe, and he was giving her the signal to not give me a complementary water. I thought that not only was that rude, it was extremely poor customer service. Some of the group that I was with decided to buy some tequila shots, so it's not like we were not spending money in their establishment because we were, and to not include a one dollar bottle of water is showing me that they don't value my money and I should not spend my money at that establishment ever again. I loved the massage, but it's very important to me to have good customer service and if you can't extend me a basic courtesy, you don't deserve to have my USD or my pesos.
