I already reviewed the excellent Cantina de los Deseos on TripAdvisor.

Not very good. Just crappy food. Would rather eat a taco stand. Service was great. The food was warmed up. Nice atmosphere great service just need a decent cook.

This was our last dinner in Cabo and unlike the other Unilocalers, I really liked it here. The food was good and I’d have to say this was my favorite place in downtown out of the 4 places we ate at. And our main server, Ricardo, was awesome! 3 Cheeses Melt Au Tequila(5 stars) — This was one of the starters we ordered. They make this tableside mixing Chihuahua cheese, Oaxaca, and Parmesan adding a hint of tequila. Served with warm tortillas. I folded mine into a quesadilla and topped it with some fresh green salsa… deeeelish! Los Deseos Mushrooms(5 stars) — This was the second appetizer that we shared. Button mushrooms and shrimp are sautéed with guajillo pepper, olive oil and garlic. So much flavor! I loved this and could have eaten the whole plate by myself. Chicken Enchiladas w/Red Sauce(4 stars) — The chicken was tender and sauce very flavorful. I like my enchiladas drenched in sauce and therefore feel it could have used a little more sauce. And I did bite into a little piece of cartilage. But other than that, this was a solid dish. Ribeye 14oz(4 stars) — This is what hubby ordered. The meat was tender and flavorful. Comes with a side of rice and beans which hubby passed on the beans. I later noticed the menu said it’s also accompanied by a side of potatoes and spinach. He did get the potatoes, which were super delicious, but not the spinach. I didn’t order an alcoholic beverage but those that did commented that they were very strong. One of the gals in our party didn’t like her drink as it wasn’t what she expected based on the description. They replaced it for her twice and then ultimately allowed her to change it altogether which I thought was respectful of them. Located in the marina, the restaurant offers both inside and outside dining. We opted to sit inside since it was a bit windy. Overall, 4.5 stars! I’d definitely come back if I had the chance.

Nice place for breakfast with friendly staff! We enjoyed it! It is right on the marina and has a nice and relaxing view!

Not near as bad as reviews suggest. You need to understand that eating in Mexico differs greatly from the U.S. It takes a while to get served and you’re not likely to get your check unless you ask. The service and food were average as were the prices for Cabo waterfront.

Came here for dinner one of the nights of vacation and immediately got the margaritas… they were tasty but didn’t taste like they had any alcohol in them and were like $ 9 for a drink. In any case, we weren’t too terribly worried about it because we were just hungry and the group I was with had been there before. We got the cheese volcano and it was good but a little on the high side for getting one serving of cheese on a tortilla. Ah well. The server disappeared for a while and seemed quite confused but whatever. We ordered 2 orders of fajitas(chicken and steak) and 2 orders of Coconut Shrimp(the«special»). The food was decent although the fajitas consisted of a huge pile of veggies and a small piece of meat cut up. The coconut shrimp were butterfly shrimp(5 or 6 if I remember right) with a side of beans and rice. Here’s the kicker… We get the bill and it shows 1200 pesos for 2 orders of coconut shrimp. To make a comparison, EVERYTHING else was under 1200 pesos TOTAL. This means we had 2 orders of coconut shrimp for about $ 50 in the US. WHAT?! On top of it, after arguing with them about not telling us the price and not having it anywhere else, they offered a generous discount of 15%. No. Not cool. Don’t hide your prices and don’t try and trick people to buy some«special» that’s 2 – 3 times more expensive than anything on the menu. SHADY. Also, our waiter tried to increase his tip on the bill and because my boyfriend kept asking for an updated receipt, he got caught and the transaction had to be fixed by a manager. This place is absolutely ridiculous and I think others need to hear about it.
