Tequila Restaurant

The meal and service I had here were beyond amazing! To start our waiter Nacho couldn’t have been more delightful. For food we started with some salads to share, the chile relleno, and soup. All delicious. Also skinny margaritas which were great. They also gave us bread with mouth watering sauce to dip that I could have eaten the whole night. For our main dish we all got the fish of the day which happened to be Tuna. It was cooked to perfection with truffle polenta and grilled zucchini. Everyone at the table agreed that it was one of the best dinners we have had– ever. Our plates were licked clean! For dessert we had the flan and key lime pie which melted in your mouth– highly recommend. I would go back for every meal if it wasn’t my last night! Go go go! So delicious :) thank you for a great experience!

You need to go here. This place is all about location and while its not much to look at from the outside, follow the smell inside for delicious open fire cooked seafood, polenta, rice and beans. They are not surprisingly excited to serve you a tequila based drink, but they also had a pretty solid wine list as well. I got tequila shrimp which was great. My buddy got some other seafood that she gobbled up incredibly quickly. More than the food, this cool backyard gardan where the tables are set up is to die for. You feel transported out of Baja into a land of awesome music, attentive service and great liquor.
My only regret was that we didn’t find this place sooner. It was a winner and a highlight of our trip.

The food was good, the rack of lamb excellent but the prices are very high. We had very good service but found the prices were double what we found everywhere else. The food did not justify the amount charged. Unless money is no object, you can do better elsewhere.

Good solid menu. Good tortilla soup. Music is okay but after a few visits a little boring. Always nice a cool and consistently good food. A little pricey but everyone in San Jose should check this place out at least once.

I finally joined Unilocal in order to write this review. This is one of my favorite restaurants and we come in every time we are in town, which sadly is only once a year. The setting is magical, the food is delicious, the service is fantastic and the tequila selection is outstanding. On this last visit I learned that they have their own organic farm. Will have to make a point to visit next time.

Great restaurant in the center of old town San Jose del cabo. Large enclosed courtyard makes for the perfect setting. For was devine. Chef Martin Garcia does wonders with the mesquite fired grill. The smoke from the grill adds a wonderful touch to the sautéed spinach. Organic herbs and vegetables from their garden complement the dishes. The beef tenderloin with guajillo Chile cabernet sauce was done to perfection, a nice thick cut with a great chat on the outside and a perfect medium rare on the inside. The stuffed poblano chile appetizer was light and delicious.

We have been to many very good restaurants, but this is one of the best; certainly the best in Mexico. The ambiance, the service, and of course the food were all excellent. The tequila may be the best we’ve ever had. We loved the different combinations of ingredients and how they blended together. We had the shrimp bomb, arugula salad, chili relleno, and tenderloin. Finished with authentic flan.

Food was ok. Service was extremely slow. Expect to sit here for 2 hours on a night with very few people there. They also seem to conveniently be «out» of pizza pretty consistently with tourists…

Amazing ambiance, amazing table manners! So polite very welcoming… Almost feels like ur in someone’s home. Tequila is to die for. So many options with pairing ideas. Definitely a must

My worst experience in San Jose del Cabo.
Our hotel called ahead and «confirmed» that they could easily handle vegan. Upon arriving, we could see on the menu that all the items mentioned over the phone normally contained cheese, and, as is often the case, trying to explain to the server that you’d called ahead and attempted to work things out in advance had little effect.
I tried to order a pizza no cheese, but they were «out of» pizza that day. I ended up with a simple house salad and filled up on wine. They do not have any chips, guacamole, salsa, or beer — things I was expecting to live on as a vegan visiting Mexico. I resorted to my emergency supply of granola bars once back in the room.
The Sweetie attempted to ordered a veganized version of the the veggie filled chile rellanos, but they came topped with crema, which was not mentioned on the menu or by the server, and they were surprised to find out that «no cheese» meant you also wouldn’t want crema. Quote: «You didn’t say no crema, you said no cheese.» I’m guessing we were the first vegans to ever dine there. They shouldn’t have said «yes» when asked if they knew what that was. We’d have gone elsewhere and they’d avoided a 1-​star review.
The service was also poor. ½ of us ordered just appetizers and the other ½ just entrees. And it was served this way — sequentially. So the Sweetie and I were done before the rest of the table started. Also, the drinks were allowed to sit empty without offers for another round.
The non-​vegans were upset that one dish described as «small» ended up being huge and they said the house margaritas were «not very good». None of the margaritas on the menu used blanco, which is all I’ll drink, so I can’t confirm.
The wine list is very small.
Prices were really high.
For some reason, you can’t add a tip on the credit card. Only cash.

We went based a recommendation from some part-​time Canadian inhabitants. The food was fresh, hot and spicy. We all enjoyed our meal! My beer never ran dry! Service was fast and attentive! 5 stars for a great local mom and pop Mexican cantina!

Excellent. The service is top notch. The setting is a gorgeous courtyard. The food is creative and delicious. Organic and garden grown.
