Nick-San Sushi – Thumbs Up! ♥♥♥♥♥

You probably won’t find a sushi joint as good as this anywhere — Tokyo included!!  However, you’ll pay top dollar at Nick-San.  Arts-and-Sushi is a great sushi restaurant as well, with much lower prices, but in Cabo, Nick-San is the absolute best.

Plaza de la Danza, Blvd. Marina. Ph:143-4484, 143-2491 Open Daily 11:30am-10:30pm.

Note, 6/1/2012: Received this from one of our repeat guests: “We have to disagree with Nik San. We had a bad experience there with horrible service. Submitted the complaint through their website, and we never heard anything back. We are loyal to Arts & Sushi. Love their food and great service!”

So, “your mileage may vary” at Nick-San?

Tabasco’s

On Medano Beach in front of Club Cascadas (just south of the soccer fields), Tabasco’s offers great breakfasts. If you’re expecting something fancy like The Office, you’ve come to the WRONG place. Pretty simple, toes-in-the-sand-Corona-in-the-hand-no-hassle beach shack kind of place.

Beach shack — no phone, no reservations! ($)

Mango Deck – Cabo San Lucas

Mango Deck — located next to The Office, right on Medano Beach, it gets to be a wild place in the afternoons.  Think “spring break” and you’ll catch my drift…  Great views of the bay and the arch.

Foot of Paseo Pescadores on Médano Beach. Ph: 143-0901, 143-6777. Daily 7am-11pm.

Zippers

Zippers — mile marker 28.5 at the Los Olisas Hotel.  Burgers, fries, sandwiches.  A bit pricey for what you get, but right on the sand and surf.  Gotta love a place that says hours are “Friday and Saturday until we close…”

Costa Azul Beach, Km. 28. 5, Transp. Hwy. Daily 11am-11pm, Fri and Sat until close.

Pepe’s

Pepe’s — want traditional Mexican at very affordable prices? Pepe’s is your place then. Very good food; you’ll probably have to experiment with your ordering, but at these prices, who cares? Be adventurous!

We’d highly recommend the Tacos Pastor and also the Trombo Tostadas.

Not sure of the address, but on the right side of the main road heading into downtown Cabo, just across from the mall. ($)

Edith’s

Edith’s — incredible food and expensive. There are many great restaurants in Cabo, but this is one of the absolute must-do restaurants.

The service is impeccable. One thing about Cabo is that the service is usually outstanding — the locales very much appreciate being able to serve you (and make good money doing so). We wish this would be true in the USofA…

The Office (on Medano Beach)

The Office — located directly on Medano Beach. Absolutely incredible breakfasts and lunches. Fantastic service, but with a few gotchas (read on).

Dinner also, but a bit noisy from the music of competing establishments on either side. Eat with your toes in the sand, looking at the best view of Los Arcos. This establishment is a “must do” and owned by the folks who own Ediths (up the street).

If you go, keep in mind that you’re on the beach for your meal and along with being on the beach, uh, come “the vendors.” They’re very polite, but if you sit at the edge of the eating area you’ll feel like your every move is being watched by … the vendors. Sit a few tables in and you won’t even know they’re there.

Gotchas:  1) They have a nasty habit of treating their customers as if they’re total tourists; this means overbilling (quoting in pesos and charging in dollars at an unreasonable exchange rate and 2) we wore our “The Office” hat recently and they said “because of the hat, you get two-for-one drinks! Well, we ordered two drinks and they charged us for two, saying the “second drink was to go only.”  Fail.  No tip. 3) Timeshare solicitations. Your waiter may be on “the take” and offer to comp you your meal if…

Foot of Paseo Pescador at Médano Beach. Ph: 143-3464, 143-4919; Fax:143-3080. Dinner reservations suggested. Daily 7am-10pm. Happy hour 3-5 each day.
