Best Historic Restaurants in San José del Cabo

Great food - the burrata was amazing and came on a bed of green beans and salsa macha, a Mexican version of chili oil. Ordered the roasted cauliflower and found it to be a great vegetarian option. For mains, we ordered the lobster tortellini in a butternut squash sauce and the parpardelle in a ragu sauce. Food was great quality with good portions (cauliflower was a bit on the smaller side though, even for an appetizer). The desserts were good but, compared to the food, a bit underwhelming. In terms of drinks, they have great non-alcoholic options and a cocktail list with a variety of different liquors as a base for each one. Their wine list offers a great selection from different countries as well.

OMAKAI was excellent. The quality of the fish was sublime. The gyoza stuffed with pork belly....delicious. We are big sashimi eaters, so the chefs choice sashimi, 5 fish, three pieces each was a great choice. The toro melted in your mouth. I had a hand roll, unagi with foie gras, also excellent. All the flavors came through on each bite. We had no room for desert, but since we'll be back I wasn't worried that I missed anything. The owner was very attentive and the service was excellent. It wasn't cheap, but what is these days. It wasn't anymore than I expected and we ate a good amount. Kudos to the kitchen, job well done. In San Jose, don't miss this fine dining experience

Very nice experience not the normal staff working on Christmas Day The guy that was our waiter sucked Never poured our bottle of wine we ordered I had to do it myself We had to keep asking for stuff We have been here many times and never had a problem It had to be the Christmas staff Disappointing Theresa Wisniewski 1-425-4663234

The atmosphere is so beautiful, a wonderful sax player was roaming the room and the food was excellent, the service was top notch for sure, highly recommend!

If youre looking for the feel and look of the original Tropicana, sadly the past is gone. The entire complex has been beautifully renovated, and I hope they are successful. If you want to stay in town and enjoy peace and quiet, yet be able to walk out to the historic center and art district, you can’t go wrong. Gone is the Cubano bands and bar with overlooking balcony, and in its place is a beautiful bar with tables for drinks and dinner. The sidewalk dining area has the same feel, but I do agree, the menu is limited. That being said, it was the best “catch of the day” dinner I have ever had. The sea bass was cooked to perfection in a mango purée and veggies. The staff was very friendly, and we dined with live music outside. I did not feel as though the prices were any higher than most of the restaurants you now find in Los Cabos. After 18 years of dining and staying at the Tropicana, it was hard to see the change, but I will go back.
