Dining Information
For reasonably inexpensive food, head for Morelos and the streets away from the waterfront. The more touristy places - some of them the most expensive in Baja - cluster around the marina and along Hidalgo. At night, such places compete for the custom of partying visitors by offering happy hours (often 6-8pm) and novel cocktails. There's little to choose between them; stroll along and take your pick.
Billygan's Island, Playa Medano. One of the three beach bar-restaurants that cater for beach-party goers, from 9am till 11pm.
Cabo Wabo, Guerrero between Lézaro Cérdenas and Madero. Van Halen-owned club fashioned in their image; Sammy often takes the stage. Loud and lively but often with a hefty cover charge.
Francisco's Café del Mundo, marina waterfront. The best coffee in town. Delicious cakes, US papers, magazines and a harbour view.
Giggling Marlin, Blvd Marina at Matamoros. A Cabo institution, drawing an older set than other choices on the strip. Mostly a place to drink and dance to Latin standards: chances of getting out without hearing La Bamba are slim.
La Perla, Lézaro Cérdenas between Matamoros and Abasolo. Very inexpensive and thoroughly Mexican place right in the tourist zone. Good Mexican staples and licuados.
Mariscos Mocambo, Morelos at Revolución. Unpretentious seafood restaurant popular with Mexicans.
Oye Como Va, Guerrero at Zapata. New curbside Mexican joint with exceptional and cheap tortas, tacos, and breakfasts and comida corrida.
Restaurant Latitude 22+, Lézaro Cérdenas, east of Morelos. One of the nicer, less noisy US-style restaurants, done out in a nautical theme.
Restaurant Orale, Zaragoza and 16 de Septiembre. A down-to-earth, cheap, Mexican place. Great food, friendly staff.
The Barn (El Establo), Zaragoza and Nińos Héroes. Friendly little bar.
The Office, Playa Médano. Restaurant and bar which, along with its neighbours, Billygan's Island and Pirata Cavendish, pumps out rock classics and offers happy hours. Expensive food and not to everyone's taste.
