Outstanding variety of tacos on fresh tortillas (our favorite is the duck mole) and an amazing selection of artisanal mezcals. Superb flan to finish the meal if you have room. A highlight meal every time we’re in San Jose del Cabo!

THE best cheese taco El Pastor in Cabo. And this was first time trying the beet salad and I nearly licked the plate. All the staff treat you like an old friend - and they do it very well. A Must Try, both the Cabo San Lucas and the older SJ del Cabo location.
