We expected a long wait, since it was Valentine’s Day and very crowded, but we were pleasantly surprised that we didn’t have to wait too long to be seated. The food was great (we shared a meal for two) and the service was outstanding. We didn’t catch the name of our server (the receipt says Sabrina) but she made this a fantastic dining experience. Super friendly and helpful. We are going to be repeat customers, for sure.—Dave C

First time at Todos Santos and we had a wonderful dinner celebrating my nieces bday. Edder(sp?) was a very nice and attentive server. Daniel also made our visit special. Food was delicious. We got the pork belly appetizer that was very tasty. We ordered off the secret menu. Two of us got the lobster relleno, one got short rib enchiladas, another got chicken enchiladas, and I got the tres mares enchiladas. We all enjoyed our food. We told them we had a bday and they brought out a whole show with the fried ice cream and a sparkler. We shared the dessert but I could have enjoyed the fried ice cream by myself. Soo good! I do highly recommend!
