Manta

This is a true luxury dinning experience with wonderful views of the Ocean! I came here to celebrate my birthday and I was attended by Gerardo who was wonderful on checking up on us and explaining the dishes the chef would cook and what to pair them with. We tried the chef tasting option which me and my boyfriend had no regrets! We were so full by the end of the tasting! I felt so special they came out with a dessert for my birthday it felt so nice just being here I didn’t want to leave! Definitely will be back thanks to everyone in the kitchen and as well as Gerardo who I will be asking for to attend me when I go back and visit!

Such an incredible experience! One of the best meals I have ever had. Our whole table had the tastings menu and each course was truly mouth-watering. I especially loved the short rib buns, fish tacos, and grilled fish. It was worth every penny. Orlando and Gerardo were especially wonderful servers.

Awesome experience. We had 12 in our group but we split into two tables of 6. From the start of the meal to the end, we were taken care of like guests in someone's home. The staff were excellent throughout, with perfect recommendations, explanations of what the dish was, and everything. We ordered so many things but the highlights were the hummus, the beets, the GUAC! Everything is very fresh, very tasty and the fusion of Mexican and Japanese works on such a good level! For drinks, you cannot go wrong. All of their cocktails were unique but man, so good! If you're in Cabo, add Manta to your list!

Excellent restaurant. Located inside the Cape Thompson Hotel this restaurant is a modern upscale dining experience. Menu has a variety of cuisines and beverages. Staff very attentive and knowledgeable. Food was the best I have had in the Cabo San Lucas area. Definitely recommend no issues.

Loved the seaweed & cucumber salad! Loved the sliced fish. He Loved the mushroom soup, but the bowl was too much. Loved the rice with cauliflower and sweet potatoes, my fav. I'd order with extra cauliflower next time. I didn't like the pork steam buns so much, and we really didn't like the fried chicken... the texture was very weird. Other than that, great experience and fireworks went off at 9pm!

Atmosphere 5 stars. Service 5 stars. Food quality/Price 3 stars. (Could be much better

In short, One of the best places to eat in Cabo San Lucas. Food was fantastic. No matter what you order off the menu it will be heavenly. Drinks were top notch. Great wine selection as well. Service was top notch. The views are some of the best in Cabo for sure. Definitely a memorable dinner here. If you’re reading this just do it. Watch for influencers in the wild down at the beach from the balcony trying to take photos with the view haha

5-star experience. What a gorgeous setting- classy and serene. We sat on the balcony and watched sunset over the ocean. Service was wonderful. Recommend doing the tasting menu to try a wide range of menu options. Each dish was thoughtful with complex and amazing flavors. The tres leches was one of the best desserts I’ve ever had. A very memorable experience and hope to return.

Neri and Froylan Gerardo provided exceptional service throughout our entire experience. The food was delicious and everything g came out perfect. The beachside views were amazing and the music was relaxing. I am always about catching a great vibe with good people.

We dined at Manta in the Cape Hotel this week during our stay in Cabo. What an experience... a bit on the pricey side, but all things considered, worth every penny... read on! The first thing you notice about Manta is the absence of color or anything on the walls... everything is painted black! As explained by our waiter Sergio, the idea is to allow patrons to focus exclusively on the beach and ocean before you, without distraction. You have to see it to get it... it works! Segio was great all evening... attentive, but not intrusive. He did a wonderful job of guiding us through the menu based upon our discussions about what we like and/or don't like. Thank you for a wonderful evening, Sergio! We started with a cocktail, Avocado Cocktail and the Mezcal Negroni. Both were delicious, but as dinner progressed, we decided to peruse the wine list, and settled on a beautiful Henri Lurton Chenin Blanc, Valle San Vicente, MX. The bottle was perfectly cellared and served at the right temperature. It was awesome... The food parade began with some complimentary chips and salsas, the chips were made of blue corn and rice. The chips were super light and airy, and the salsas were sublime. Flavors were intense and deep. Very good start to the evening! The courses to follow included the Tuna Sashimi. The fish was "melt in your mouth," and paired exquisitely well with the sides. Ensalada Melon followed, cantaloupe and honey dew melon, tiger's milk, yuzu and peppermint... WOW! Next up was the Mushroom Ramen soup. The soup was easily one of the best bowls of ramen we have ever had. It was divine! Seemingly endless layers of flavor, every bite was savory. Octopus Anticucho followed, with pasilla peppers and chorizo mayo... the BOMB! Unfortunately, we didn't save room for an entree, and ended the evening with the Sticky Rice/Mango Sorbet. A wonderful ending to an exquisite meal. Highly recommend Mantra is you're in Cabo!

Just wow. Not only is the service top notch and informative but you get an elevated experience with the view and scenery. Manta was a delicious and fresh dinner with thoughtful curations of seafood and Mexican x Asian flares. Highly recommend the octopus skewers - lightly flamed grilled with creamy dipping sauce, overall great texture and flavor. Starting off with the sashimi set the freshness level for the rest of the evening. We were constantly oo'ing and ah'ing over the decadence of the food. It's within the Cape Hotel so easy to make a reservation with the front desk or online. Great for large groups (6-8 ppl) or a beautiful dinner date night or celebration.

Wonderful service from Geraldo, delicious food and a few complimentary gifts. We really enjoyed the Peruvian ceviche, the Tuna appetizer and the Sea Bass. Also, all of the sauces were perfect spice with rice chicharrones. Mochi for desert was awesome. Ambiance and light music were nice as well. Even gave my daughter a shawl because she was a little cold. Really perfect evening.

Excellent service from start to finish, set inside a beautiful hotel with high security, the Thompson hotel sits on a cliff and was basically designed to be Instagrammable. This was the setting for our beautiful sunset dinner. The staff seated us immediately and we're incredibly helpful in taking photos for us. Our waiter explained everything about the restaurant and his recommendations and off we went. From top to bottom, just excellent service - I won't bore you with every minute detail, but it was the meaningful details that really reigned everything in. The service of course is the cherry on top of this breadth of beautiful food and drink sundae. Everything was flavorful and gorgeous, but the items I'd highly recommend are: Tuna sashimi - buttery-soft, melt in your mouth tuna spices accented with two dipping sauces, both really adding to the depth of the dish to elevate it beyond just sashimi. Charred octopus - I kid you not, top two for favorite octopus dishes, tying with our favorite omakase in Hawaii. Incredibly tender and well prepared, the deep char flavor is contrasted with its served sauce that brings a light acid and sweetness on the tongue. Overall, my only complaint is why hasn't this restaurant earned a star yet?

Forget Nobu, come to Manta instead. We were so upset we spent our precious stomach real estate, time and money at Nobu when it couldn't even hold a candle to Manta. Manta's view is better, ambiance is better, a/c actually exists and is very strong, and even their sushi was better. Honestly Manta was the top 10 dinners in our life whereas Nobu was one of the worst 10 dinners of our lives. Have I mentioned how spectacular the view is here? You get clear views of the ocean in every seat in the house. We came for dinner at sunset, got THE best seat in the house, and even better food and service. Have I mentioned how it is easily, hands down, one of our top 10 experiences in our lives? (Pro tip: They take reservations - you can ask your hotel concierge to help or you can book on OpenTable). Chef Enrique Olivera has really outdone himself. We got the chef's 5 course tasting menu and we were allowed to get different items so my boo and my tasting menu were different and we got to enjoy 10 different and oh so delicious courses. The tuna course was amazing- you get 5 slices, each one topping the previous until you get to that tasty toro. Our Aztec waiter was AMAZING and being a foodie himself, gave us great recommendations on the black tier (sPiCy sauce) and accompaniments to the cochinita. Honestly he took our experience from 10/10 to 12.5/10. We're officially customers for life. What a beautiful and romantic dinner!

Had an amazing experience here while in Cabo. I will definitely plan to come back whenever I visit Cabo in the future. Everything we tried was delicious, the only complaint being that everything was smaller portion, but we ordered so many different dishes we were all thoroughly stuffed anyway. Service was also amazing, and the restaurant itself has an amazing ambiance, and gorgeous views of the water. Great to celebrate a special occasion. Definitely try the desert after as well, the mango sticky rice was so yummy.

5 stars vibe, energy, view and service! The restaurant Manta is known for having one of the best views in Los Cabos--overlooking El Arco and the Bahia Cabo San Lucas horizon. The restaurant focuses on fresh seafood while also have Japanese,and Peruvian influences. The restaurant is located in The Cape, A Thompson Hotel, known for its infinity pool and swim-up bar, rooftop lounge and private outdoor spa cabanas. The restaurant is popular with hotel guests as well as others traveling to the Los Cabos region. Dinner items include unique options like beetroot ceviche; fried oyster burrito; fish tempura tacos; suckling pig cochinita; and octopus anticucho. One let down was the Korean fried chicken. I would skip that but otherwise a great experience!

Loved this place! Had dinner here Thursday while watching the sunset. The vibes/views of this place are amazing. We did the tasting menu and cocktails. I really enjoyed the maracuyá drink. The best dish imo was the grilled fish. The árbol miso is to die for. Also loved the clam, sashimi, melon, fish taco. Honestly everything was good! Service was great and I just had an awesome time.

Beautiful views, friendly staff, fancy setting but laid back vibes. We had a long and leisurely meal with friends and family. Fab cocktails and a wonderful menu full of lots of veggie and seafood options that are perfect for sharing. Highly recommend.

Posting another review since yelp is not letting me add pictures to my original review. We ate here two nights in a row (Dec 2022) so it's justified :) Ambience, food, service, it's the total package.

In short, One of the best places to eat in Cabo San Lucas. Food was fantastic. No matter what you order off the menu it will be heavenly. Drinks were top notch. Great wine selection as well. Service was top notch. The views are some of the best in Cabo for sure. Definitely a memorable dinner here. If you're reading this just do it. Watch for influencers in the wild down at the beach from the balcony trying to take photos with the view haha

Delicious but not worth the price- there are better expensive options (see Acre review). We liked the aquachiles and sweet potato in mole (but it was $30 for a half a yam...)

I will come back here again and again, I cannot say enough about this place! We did the tasting menu which says five courses, but it's more like 35. Each course is like an amuse-bouche with 3-5 different plates. Even dessert, there were three different dessert courses. I had to be rolled out of here once we were done. The resort was also beautiful, I would love to stay here next time. It's at the Thompson Cape and it's on the cliff's edge (hence cape) with a gorgeous 180 view of the ocean. Since I could not make it to Pujol in Mexico City, this held me over until 2023. Highly recommend 15/10!!

Amazing food, very trendy, awesome view! Had the opportunity to delve into the astounding menu and very bougie atmosphere. Loved this place, as it is a splurge from my normal places to visit. We got a private room (party of 20) and 10+ course meal. The dishes were tasty and presentation was outstanding. Although in Mexico, the food had a Asian-Mexican twist in presentation. For example: soft bun taco, which resembled an Asian bao but with Mexican spice pork belly ( on the menu: Suckling pig cochinita, steamed bun, cilantro, habanero). Great flavor! Plates are tapas style. (Don't think Texas) Some of my favorite dishes was: the Sliced fish, orange, serrano, worm salt; Octopus anticucho, pasilla mixe, chorizo mayo; Grilled catch of the day, árbol miso; Sashimi, ají amarillo, sesame, wasabi. If your celebrating or just want a fancy place to try...I recommend giving this a go!

Manta is located at The Cape, a Thompson hotel. It is particularly known for its Japanese and Peruvian influences and that was exactly the vibe that I got. Our server Daniel was absolutely amazing. He was so nice, knew the menu very well and overall was wonderful. Our food was quite delectable. I had the lettuce tacos which were seasoned perfectly. For dessert, my boyfriend and I shared the tres leches was to die for. A great way to start off our trip. My only regret is not having an earlier reservation to catch the sunset and views of the El Arco!

View: Amazing. Service: OK. Food: Not great. Not worth the hype. Food was ok for the price. What I will say is if you have dietary restrictions, they are WONDERFUL about accommodating. We went with a group to celebrate a birthday and since we were over 6 people they required us to do the pre-fix menu. Unfortunately, this did not at all live up to expectations from other people and reviewers. The meal was served family style at $139 USD / person. 16% TAX INCLUDED / 15% SERVICE CHARGE NOT INCLUDED. First: Beetroot ceviche, ginger, habanero Melon, Leche de tigre, yuzu, peppermint Lettuce, radish, avocado, sun lower oil, yuzu Second: Sashimi, ají amarillo, sesame, wasabi Shrimp, scallop, octopus aguachile Chocolata clams, Leche de tigre, ginger oil Fish tacos, miso, cabbage, flour tortillas Third: Suckling pig cochinita, steamed bun, cilantro Fourth: Grilled fish, árbol miso Roasted sweet potato, almond mole Ribeye, chile crust Fifth: Tres leches, black cherry ice cream, vanilla Steamed rice, mango sorbet, coconut milk The highlight: Sashimi, ají amarillo, sesame, wasabi Shrimp, scallop, octopus aguachile I personally think there are much better restaurants in cabo! But the sunsets here are amazing. Maybe grab a drink and go to the rooftop for a sunset instead....

I bave now been to Manta twice, and it remains my favorite dinner in Los Cabos. The staff is fantastic, and the meal is a true experiences. The ambiance is elevated, yet incredibly approachable. Highly recommend this restaurant for a final, gorgeous dinner during your next Cabo trip!

Great setting with wonderful views especially at sunset. The food was very good if you like Mexican Asian fusion which I do. Wine was way overpriced but that seems to be common in Cabo so we had margaritas which were tasty. It was on the expensive side, but at least unlike a lot of hotel based restaurants the food was inventive and well executed. Appreciate the small plates and sharing style menu.

The food was absolutely incredible. The Service and ambiance, and literally everything is just done to perfection. We did the Chef's tasting, which was worth every penny. The servers Leonel, Friolan, and Aldair were some of the best servers I have every experienced in a restaurant. Absolutely a world class meal and experience. I would say it was one of the best meals of my life.

So for what you pay the quality of food is way under average and way under what is expected and therefore underwhelming. What a shame! I really wanted to like this place after convincing my partner to come here over the other fine restaurants. The wine tasted like it wasn't stored properly due to the heat that was experienced in the aftertaste. We asked to taste a few before deciding to buy a bottle. But the same heat at the end was experienced so we asked to decant The wine and keep it indoors where it was cooler. The heat went away but the taste was not great so that was a disappointment. I would recommend sticking with wine you know. Service was fast and friendly. Best part of the meal was the raw fish. Absolutely superb! Thanks!

I was really excited to find at Manta since I couldn't make it to Pujol in Mexico City. I was very disappointed to find that the food at Manta wasn't impressive. The starter that they brought out for you, on the house, was better than their tuna sashimi, which wasn't fresh. I've had much better for less, in Maui. The Peruvian ceviche was pretty good. The mushroom ramen wasn't great, the broth was flavorful, so that was the best part. The dish with the most flavor, yet simplicity, was the guacachile vegetables. The mains were super disappointing. For how much the ribeye was ($84), the meat was very tough and lacked flavor. It was so inedible that I ate only a piece or two. I told the servers the ribeye wasn't edible and they didn't even try to offer me a substitute dish. The grilled miso fish also lacked flavor; couldn't even taste the miso. The mains were an all around disappointment. The palate cleanser and the birthday dessert that they provided on the house were great though. All in all, the views and the ambiance here is great, and the food that comes out on the house is better than the entrees. Save your money and go somewhere else for quality food. I expected a lot more from chef Enrique Olvera.

We stayed at the Cape for 6 days and I wanted to love this place. Sashimi, fried chicken, cucumber salad and fish tacos. Mushroom ramen. Sashimi was fresh, delicately cut and excellent. Fried chicken- tasty, but literally 4 large nuggets Fish Tacos - good Cucumber salad- different but good Mushroom ramen- need to cook down the mushrooms- pretty raw and no flavor to the broth.

This restaurant is by the same chef as Pujol but in a Asian Mexican fusion way. Honestly not bad, but I can see how people would be disappointed if they had an expectation for certain dishes. We started with the ceviche which we felt needed a bit more flavor. The soup it's in is amazing, but somehow that flavor didn't carry into the fish and the cucumbers on top. We also got the watermelon salad. It was interesting in that they purposely chose raw watermelon and flavored it with this light sweet sauce that made it taste amazing. The contrast between the tomato, watermelon, and the sauces made this our favorite dish of the night. Our fried oyster burrito was huge and really filling. it tasted like a mix of the Taiwanese crispy beef rolls with the oyster sauce, but instead of beef its fried oysters. The cochinita baos were interesting. Not the best cochinita I've ever had, but it mixes well with the steamed baos that were made partially from corn and had a heavy tortilla taste. The coconut sticky rice was really really disappointing. It looks like a bento. I'm not sure if they were trying to purposely undercook the sticky rice to make it somewhat chewy, but the rice was not properly cooked nor was it sticky. The papaya was also somewhat raw, probably on purpose so it doesn't overpower the sweetness of the coconut and the rice. Overall, very confused what this was. The cocktails here were pretty good, and very different from most restaurants in Cabo. Lots of Asian ingredients and flavors there. Some advice here, it gets super windy at night and outdoor seating is like torture in mid March. Feel free to request a table outside to start your cocktails and then move inside as well.

This was our favorite dinner in Cabo. We did the prefix 5 course tasting which is an amazing deal! You get soo much food! The ambiance is dark and sexy. Service is top notch.

If you're in Cabo I highly recommend checking out Manta at The Cape Hotel! Truly one of the most delicious meals and service was 10/10. We enjoyed the Chefs Tasting Menu for a very affordable price. Every dish was exceptional, from appetizers to the desserts. Alex was our server and he was so professional in explaining each dish that hit our table. The pastry chef made two exceptional treats to end the night on. This hotel is one of my favorites and have stayed here the last two times I've been in Cabo. Highly recommend the hotel and the restaurant Manta. Thank you to the entire chefs team for a memorable dining experience!

My family and I were staying at the Cape so naturally we made reservations to eat here one night. My parents saw the menu and didn't end up staying for dinner but my husband and I did. Manta did not disappoint. The service was great, they are kid friendly, the view is spectacular (especially at sunset), and the food is flavorful-well presented-and just so damn good. To start they brought out rice chips with tuna and pico de gallo (complimentary), we asked for more because it was soo good and even our baby enjoyed it. We ordered the broccoli dish, the heirloom toMato/watermelon tamarind dish, rice & corn dish, and the ramen. For dessert we ordered the chocolate sponge cake. Everything was absolutely delish! We wanted to come back another night to try more of the menu but we just didn't have time. If you are in Cabo, I highly recommend giving Manta a try!!

Manta is uber modern in feel - black granite and led lights everywhere, but a sumptuous experience for dining and I can imagine staying in the hotel. The view is exquisite, and you feel like celebs might be dining all around you but you wouldn't notice because of the sexy low lighting. Food wise we went for the tasting menu, which is a playful take on Mexican staples. 4 salsa's with the most creative tortilla's to dip in them, a ceviche, mains of fish and meat - all presented thoughtfully and with humor from the servers which delighted us. Drinks were great. We chose to sit inside under one of the manta ray styled light fixtures - a booth - and I can say its great as you are in an elevated position to observe the room and celebrity spot. The outdoor patio is probably excellent in its own way too but tables closer together and other than the outstanding view more of a plain dining experience I thought out there. When you order meat as we found in most of Mexico - if you like medium ask for it medium rare. If you ask for medium you'll get well done. Whatever you prefer go one lighter on the cooking scale to get it the way you want it.

Stellar service. Amazing ambiance. Creative and perfectly executed food. My husband and I had an AMAZING dining experience.

Food was great. Service was even better! Neri is the best waiter around! We went for the tasting menu and they let us customize it a bit to fit our liking. I would highly recommend.

overall, manta was a solid restaurant. their popcorn chicken from the bar was sooo good. also loved their melon salad , fish tempura tacos , and chips and guac . the ambiance was really nice and a bit more formal so I would suggest a reservation. if you're there, their bar has killer views so I would check that out as well!

Really great food and ambiance. Everything we ordered was really amazing. If you go at night and you're two people, sit inside. The service was great! Highly recommended.

The food is not that great and overpriced. Salad was tasteless. They just presented different hot sauces. Do not recommend.

This may be the best restaurant in Los Cabos. The entire staff did an excellent job of taking care of us, and went above and beyond for a member of our party who had dietary restrictions. The view alone is worth it, but the food was truly outstanding. And not just one dish, every dish was thoughtfully created and a delight to eat. Highly recommend the suckling pig, ribeye, and sweet potato. Thank you to everyone at the Manta for such a wonderful meal!

I really really wish I could give this place 4.5 stars instead of 4 as 4 tends to be met as mediocre when this was hardly that. In reality, I would say this restaurant isn't for everyone as the menu prices come with a bit of a sticker shock. Even though we are from San Francisco and are used to seeing menu prices like this; its a bit unexpected to see that in Cabo, Mexico especially when a delicious fish taco at a local stall goes for less than $5 while the one on this menu alone was north of $25. That said; I can forgive this a bit for the fact that its in a picturesque locale + an innovative menu that took a pan asian spin to Mexican food. Still pricey, but very tasty. The fish dishes were especially fresh, the tortillas were really well made, and the tres leches dessert was sublime.

If you're looking for an upscale oceanfront ambiance AND delicious food in Cabo this is the place. I've eaten at a lot of places on the water in vacation towns where the views are great but the food is just okay. Not the case here. We were pleasantly surprised by the quality of the food and the level of service. It's pricey, so view it as a "treat yourself" dinner. Tips: book ahead and time it so you'll be there at sunset. Ask to sit outside.

One of the best meals we've ever had. The ambience and view is perfection and there isn't anything you can order on the menu that isn't phenomenal.

Leonel and his team were wonderful and we had the best dinner experience. The service was exceptional and we can't wait to come back. Leonel's recommendations were perfect. Thank you so much!

Food was very salty, and the service was sub-par. At the end the bill included arbitrary fees and then the waiter demanded further tip, hovered while the tip was filled out, and questioned the additional tip we added on top of a 20% service charge that was automatically added - which ruined the experience.

One of the best meals I've ever had. First - before my review, let me say that Aine and Lluvia were our servers and they were quite possibly the sweetest, kindest people we've ever met. Besides being well informed of each menu item - as well as attentive and just all around fantastic servers... they were just lovely humans. Couldn't have had as good of a meal as we did without them. Ok, back to the food. We did the tasting menu, which, for $100/head was quite a lot of food. You can add wine pairing or have some of their amazing cocktails for an additional price. The Agucate (puréed avocado margarita) was SO good. The fish is SO fresh and every menu item is delicate in nature yet very robust and flavorful. Also, the Thompson Hotel is dope. So pretty. If you can flip the room rates - I say go for it.

We visited Manta to celebrate a birthday dinner and were left disappointed. Food is mediocre at best (small portions, under salted), service was unreliable (30 min to get a drink, dips arrived 20 min after the mains were served), wine list was abysmal ($170 for Decoy - omg!), and cost was high, even for a hotel restaurant. Save your $ and get off the property if you're looking for a true fine dining experience.

Hospitality and attentiveness is top of the top. You know its going to be good when you're started off with a fresh warm towel to wipe your hands. Location is beautiful, floor to ceiling windows to view the ocean. There is also outdoor seating. I would suggest bringing a jacket if you sit outside, sunset or later. We ordered the 5 taster deal, each guest orders 5 entrees for $90, one of which can be dessert. Favorites of the night were: - shrimp, scallop and octopus aguachiles - guacachiles (roasted vegetables) - soft shell crab tacos - fish tacos - fried chicken We will definitely be back to dine at the Manta and stay at The Cape/Thompson hotel.

Went for my 24th birthday dinner. Did the 5 course meal with four of my friends. Had a great experience, excellent customer service, beautiful views and ambiance. Best birthday dinner ever. Would definitely do it again.

Located in the Thompson Hotel, is obviously a "MUST" to try out staying here. We were with other party of friends, and I really enjoyed the food, the service, flavor wise was AMAZING indeed!!! My fave was the catch of the day, and the steak. A little joy in Cabo.... Service : impecable, on top of everything and every desire. I normally don't eat dinner, unless I'm on vacation, so...the portions "all we agreed" they were more like an appetizer-kind of dish. That would be the only "but" . Definitely a place to stop, and at the end my advice will be just order a bunch of dishes, pair your menu with their amazing wines, don't skip dessert. And "Their you go" .

The absolute best meal we had on our vacation to Cabo! We stayed at the Cape and decided to try Manta on our last night of our trip. Needless to say it was the most incredible food experience we had in Cabo. Not only is the food incredible but the ambience, service and view is amazing too. I highly recommend getting a table on the terrace if you can to enjoy the views of Cabo and the sound of the surf while eating dinner. We had the grilled local sea bass as our entree and it was the best sea bass my husband and I have ever had. It was outstanding! We also shared the tuna sashimi, Peruvian ceviche, and pork bao buns. All were insanely good!Definitely will be coming back on our next vacation to Cabo!

We loved the tasting menu at Manta. We took a somewhat last minute trip to Mexico City and then Los Cabos for New Years and the first week of Jan. We couldn't get reservations at Pujol in Mexico City, so when I saw the same chef had a restaurant in Los Cabos, I was giddy with excitement. My husband and I really enjoy the culinary parts of travel, so we prioritize this over day excursions etc. We were expertly cared for by Leonel and Leonardo. We opted for the 5-course tasting menu for $90 USD. We each chose different things so got to taste 10 dishes. Everything was divine, but I would say a do-not-miss selection would include the ceviche and the cochinita pibil taco on steamed buns. We also indulged on a number of cocktails. It was certainly not a cheap meal but a really nice, tasty, romantic one. Other places we have eaten so far include Las Velas at the Hilton (was fine, expensive for what it was etc), Acre outside San Jose Del Cabo (stunning and delicious. Highly recommend going for lunch so you can walk the grounds), and the Office (20 years ago it was great, currently a total zoo, not worth it). Manta and Acre get the highest marks from us.

Loved Manta. I recommend the tasting menu to experience what the chef desires. I have been here before and will come again. FYI despite what is posted online, the restaurant only seats parties twice a night, 5:30 and 8. Plan accordingly and make reservations.

Amazing restaurant, beautiful view of the ocean, amazing tasting menu. Some of the best food I've ever had.
