About three blocks from the Malecon, two blocks from Cabo Wabo Misiones de Kinos - simply delicious - I think only serve dinner. Probably more info on line. No photos of the food, too good to waste a photograph on.






I could get GPS info if you wish. On a sidestreet bordering the Mar de Cortez Hotel.

Ediths by madano beach, the best in Cabo

pauldavidmena - 7-15-2014 at 10:58 AM

Edith's is rumored to be the best in Cabo, but I've never managed to dine there. During high season reservations are mandatory, and here we were trying to be spontaneous. We ended up going to "Mi Casa", instead, which wasn't bad, although it's clear that it catered to American tourists.

Hook - 7-15-2014 at 11:36 AM

Edith's was the best when I was last there in the 90s.

I always liked The Office for afternoon drinks and food. Pretty much bar food. Is it still there?

I still remember going to Nik San in the 90s when we caught a bunch of YFT and had them make it up different ways for our group..........AND IT STILL COST OVER $50.00 US/PERSON, not counting drinks!!! That seemed way expensive back then. I'm not surprised to hear it's pricing hasnt changed.

I haven't been to Cabo in years but my favorite places to eat used to be Mariscos Mocambo and El Faro Viejo (the original trailer park restaurant). I think El Faro is closed now but it was by far some of the best food in Cabo back in the day.

Heather - 7-15-2014 at 11:01 PM

We're in Cabo at the moment, and just had dinner at Tacos El Paisa on Leona Vicario. Love the papas filled with cheese and carne asada.
Also recommend Pollo del Oro on Morelos (the stop light street that goes up). Everything on that menu is great!
There is also a great place for soles, flautas, hot dogs, burritos etc. in Colonia 4 de Marzo near the primaria.

Cliffy - 7-15-2014 at 11:09 PM

Mine are probably dated
Romeo and Julietas
The Office(on the beach)
Panchos
Trailer Park
The corner taco stand right at the beginning of the harbor (used to be $1 taco or beer!

Cliffy - 7-15-2014 at 11:14 PM

BTW the Mar-de-Cortez was always a great hotel and has one of the best restaurants in town
