As is widely known, Los Cabos has established itself not only as a sun, desert, and sea destination, but also as an undisputed hotspot for food lovers and those seeking flavors that have won over even the most discerning palates. Located at what is known as Finisterra, the southernmost point of the incredible Baja California Sur peninsula, it meets the turquoise waters of the Sea of Cortez. The destination offers a unique blend of flavors, incorporating seafood, local agricultural products, and creativity fused with international cuisine, which has fueled a wave of new openings and gastronomic experiences.
According to many culinary innovation-focused media outlets, several new options have emerged in Los Cabos.
Let’s not forget that this destination was selected in 2024 as the only city in all of Mexico to be evaluated by the Michelin Awards, along with the states of Oaxaca, Baja California, Nuevo León, and Mexico City. One of the most notable new additions of 2025 was Harry’s Los Cabos, which opened in May. This steakhouse and fine dining concept boasts a menu of premium cuts and signature cocktails that have quickly become a benchmark for those seeking a sophisticated culinary experience in Cabo San Lucas.
The Tourist Corridor between Cabo San Lucas and San José del Cabo, which has become a major attraction over the years for its wide variety of culinary and shopping options, has added new gastronomic concepts that combine avant-garde cuisine with spectacular landscapes offering breathtaking views. Among them, Cayao stands out, known for its Nikkei and fusion cuisine that celebrates fresh Pacific seafood with Japanese and Peruvian techniques, all served in a relaxed atmosphere overlooking the Sea of Cortez. Another opening that has garnered attention and great public acclaim is Sen Lin, located in the Grand Velas Los Cabos hotel, where the chef leads an Asian culinary exploration with modern touches. The experience combines traditional Asian flavors with local ingredients, creating dishes that reflect the cultural diversity that is now part of the Los Cabos gastronomic scene. Without a doubt, a place you shouldn’t miss.
In addition to these new offerings, farm-to-table cuisine has gained ground as a distinct way to enjoy fresh, seasonal food. Acre, one of the Michelin-starred restaurants recognized as a “Guide Inspector’s Recommendation,” is located near San José del Cabo. Acre distinguishes itself with a seasonal menu featuring ingredients grown in its own gardens, offering an authentic connection between the land and each dish served to diners. This means that the dishes will always be different, and each one will have the delicious flavor of authentic Mexican seasoning, reflecting the season and what was harvested on the day of the experience.
As mentioned earlier, the Michelin Guide’s influence has also been felt in the region. In 2025, several Restaurants in Los Cabos received recognition from the guide, including locations within resorts and independent establishments. These distinctions underscore the quality and variety of culinary experiences available to both visitors and residents, further elevating the quality of the clientele who visit this destination.
And while we could continue mentioning many new additions, we cannot fail to highlight the great classics, such as Sunset Monalisa, which continue to shine. This classic and elegant beachfront restaurant, with a great view of the iconic Arch of Cabo San Lucas, offers Mediterranean cuisine with local ingredients and unforgettable sunset views, where diners experience the sound of what they call a strombus. It has established itself as a must-visit for romantic dinners or special celebrations.
The flavors of Los Cabos aren’t limited to haute cuisine; there are also excellent options if you want to experience and enjoy authentic Mexican cuisine. The local and spontaneous atmosphere will invite you to feel part of the community and experience the true Mexican flavor, seasoned with the genuine essence of a people renowned for a gastronomy steeped in history. Every local restaurant you visit will be full of anecdotes, and every recipe will possess the unique magic of its creator, rooted in their personal story.
But if you’re looking to continue discovering innovations, you can’t miss the recently opened Ilios Greek Estiatorio, which brings Mediterranean cuisine to the destination with an elegant, social approach.
