what are some good restaurants in los cabos

Ask a Cabo Expert

Hi.

My finance and I are going to be spending our honeymoon in Los Cabos and wanted to know some restaurants that you recommend.

We would like to go to a nice restaurant one or two nights, but also want to eat whatever is local and authentic.

Any advice would be appreciated.

Thanks!
