Great for scenic views
Great for outdoor dining

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.

Most beautiful views with amazing service. Christian was the best server and curated the most magical night for me and my boyfriend’s anniversary. From the moment you walk in you are greeted by the friendly staff. The food was delicious as well as 360 views of the ocean. Can’t say a bad thing about this place!!!! 10/10
