Cocina del Mar restaurant, is perched atop striking cliffs overlooking the ocean and will take you on a culinary journey through the Sea of Cortez and Cabo’s verdant farms. Enter a buzzing lantern-lit bar and lounge that invites you to linger over hand-crafted cocktails before sauntering down to dinner above a cascade of oceanfront terraces kissed by white-capped waves. An outdoor exhibition kitchen is alive with energy, a perfect spot to engage with chefs and explore bites of coastal Baja cuisine and regionally inspired cocktails beside a glowing wood fired oven.

    Food and drinks were not good. Posting only because If I can save someone else a $300 dinner for two mistake, then it was worth posting about. The place itself is beautiful but I did not even eat my dinner and ordered three different items and it was all equally bad. Service is great. But not worth going except for a sunset photo. Didn’t bother to order desert because everything else was so bad we did not see the point in taking a risk on a $30 desert either.

    Wonderful experience, we were celebrating our honeymoon and they took very good care of us. We had a great table overlooking the water. The food and beverage were outstanding, highly recommend the tuna crudo! We cannot wait to return!

    This restaurant isn’t just a meal it’s an experience. The service is outstanding and the view is incredible. Wednesday nights they do fireworks at around 7:30.

    This was a top 5 meal for me. We had the catch of the day (snapper) and added on mashed potatoes and asparagus. We had the roasted pistachio dessert. It was amazing and the views were incredible.

    Gorgeous views and location but menu fell short and vegetarian options minimal and execution worse. Service was top notch but left feeling unsatisfied for a lot $$$$.
