Food Scene

This is a hidden gem. The tacos will be the yummiest & cheapest ever. My favorite is Carne Asada but they are ALL great. Don't forget your camera as Gordo sings The Beatles during your meal.

The "you-catch-we-cook" is done at every place in Cabo, but they do it SEVEN different ways. Order more of the fried potato one. Get a carved carrot marlin in your cocktail. It's good for bfast, too.

If you're a pasta lover, this is the place! Enjoy the lunch speciaI. The chef's trained in Italy so he knows Italian cuisine. It's small so don't bring a large group or service will be compromised.

If Diners Drive-Ins & Dives likes it, then I'm in. Don't let the highway location steer you away. Try the grilled veggies and the stuffed potato. The scallop taco is pretty good, too. Cheap!

This restaurant is within a residential development that has the best view of the Sea of Cortez in all of Cabo. Hard to find but worth the hunt. The food is wonderful here and a very romantic spot.

This is an explosion of Italian food! The atmosphere is fun...where they want to legalize Marinera (play on words only). Reservations are a must. Expect HUGE portions. A bit on the expensive side.

I like this place mostly because of the live music provided at night. But the menu is quite delightful as well. Very authentic Mexican and the atmosphere is warm.

Owned by the same group as Puerta Vieja so they have mostly the same menu. The seafood combo plate with grilled Ahi tuna etc is perfect for 2. The deck is cool around the pool or further out w/a view.

Order the Caesar salad but add grilled shrimp to it...it's not on the menu! Just a local hang-out so don't expect flare and such. It's clean and has great margaritas...and very good ceviche.

Very American...burgers, ribs, etc. This is a local hangout for expats...you can imagine Jimmy Buffet hanging out here, but you'll be entertained by Peter at the piano bar instead. Boogie down!

Everything Else

This is my favorite beach to snorkel. It's quaint (but a mega resort is under construction there) & clean. Many permanent palapas provide shade. Outhouses (not great) are there as is a lifeguard.

This beach is larger but still very beautiful. Snorkeling is good here and there are four beaches to enjoy (climb the hills). Bathroom and shower facilities exist as does an occasional lifeguard.

Take a drive north up the Pacific to a big beach to surf or have a beer on the beach. Climb the rocks to the resort to enjoy a cocktail at the bar with breathtaking views. This is worth the drive.
