I thought I liked to eat... then I met my wife! There's nothing quite like sitting down in front of a mouthwatering spread at any of our favorite fine dining restaurants or roadside taco joints and seeing her eyes light up! From freshly caught tuna to piping hot chorizo tacos, Los Cabos has something to please the palate of EVERYONE!

Here you'll find some "must try" restaurants and eateries that have become my favorites over the years. Covering every pricepoint, you're sure to find some well known favorites as well as some hidden gems here. My only hope is to share some of the delicious delights that my town has to offer!

This is a work in progress so check back often, I'll be adding new favorites every week and updating photos and information on currently posted eateries as well!

Looking to be impressed, indulged and decadently satiated? Welcome to 12 Tribes @ Casa Dorada on Cabo's main beach in Medano Bay. It has been a while since a restaurant has so thoroughly overshot my expectations, but I can now say that this place has become one of my new favorites! As 2010's choice for our Valentine's Day dinner, this elegant beachfront restaurant provided the perfect ambiance, location and mouthwatering international cuisine for our rare night out (damn kids).  Best part of it all? You can enjoy all of this and still stick to that "saving for their college education" budget (damn kids)!

Being located in the heart of the action next to The Office & Mango Deck, you'd think that there would be more craziness and noise. Surprisingly, this beautifully designed restaurant (elevated off of the beach and overlooking the bay) was peaceful, quiet and very comfortable. The menu offers a wonderful spread of international specialties (inspired by the Bible's 12 tribes) ensuring that there is something that is sure to please everyone at your table.

I'd highly recommend "The Trilogy" to start, which is a sampling of 3 rich & creamy international soups (of your choosing).  The  duck (deliciously paired with pears & mashed potatoes) was cooked perfectly, and the Strawberry, Rasberry & Chocolate Trifle was the perfect way to end the meal! Between Monica & myself, we virtually licked the plates clean from start to finish as EVERYTHING we ordered was a winner! Our pleasant surprise at the end of the meal... the check (IMAGINE THAT)! With an appetizer, soup, salad, 2 entrees, dessert, coffee AND a bottle of wine, the check came in at $1,300 pesos (about $100usd). Now this is a big thing for a cheap Chinese Canadian to say... but that's a sweet deal!

With all of the great dining options in Los Cabos, it says a lot to make a repeat visit to a restaurant. I'm already salivating at the thought of our next meal @ 12 Tribes.
