Wonderful restaurant. Great service. Great location. Great atmosphere. Was not impressed with the fried oysters. But the oxtail taco, pastor tacos, mushroom chicharrón and the bone marrow with potato chip taco were unbelievably creative and fabulous. The most different being the mushroom chicharrón and the bone marrow on potato chips. Creative. Delicious. No wonder it is such a popular spot.

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!
