This place has been recommended to me several time both a couple different people - and I now know why. Nice place (under a large palapa) and the night we stopped in they had a singer starting at 7pm. Drinks we just OK, but I tried their dirty martini and it was a bad choice! I followed up with a cold hibiscus tea with vodka and loved it. Tacos were amazing and the chips and salsa was equally delicious. Definitely order the home made guacamole. My personal recommendation is the riblet taco - great flavor, but you can't go wrong on any of the taco choices.

This is a must when in San Jose del Cabo. The service and ambiance is amazing. Our waitress was super attentive even with our small language barrier. The restaurant was all together wonderful. Authentic spectacular food. The fried cheese roll is a must do not skip. Definitely recommend and if you miss this restaurant you're missing out on one heck of an experience. Muchos Gracias Las Guacamayas you made our trip to Mexico!

This spot delivered an amazing experience! We enjoyed a batido de mango, malteada de chocolate, limonada, and a bold piña michelada with Victoria—each one refreshing and well-made. The food was outstanding: a crispy, flavorful volcán de pollo, a tender quesadilla de cerdo deshebrado, and a variety of delicious tacos. Service was great, and the decor felt authentically Mexican. We’ll definitely be back!

The tacos were great! I am a big fan of the pork tacos. The pork tacos had a little bit of pico, pork, and a small slice of pineapple. That pineapple slice sweetened them up just a little bit, and the flavor was amazing. They served complimentary chips and salsa. The salsa verde was delicious and easily my favorite! They have a long list of alcoholic beverages and “mocktails” for kids or adults looking for an alternative. They had live music and it was great, but the volume was a bit too loud for me. I’m not older in age, nor do I have sensitive ears, but we were seated right next to a speaker. The restaurant has two floors- one main floor where the kitchen and bathrooms are, and an upstair floor for more seating options. The inside is colorful and vibrant, full of cultural significance. I would definitely go back and would recommend this restaurant to a friend. Prices were very reasonable!

Not sure if I am reviewing the same location, but since it’s likely owned by the same people, wanted to say this review is for the San Jose Del Cabo restaurant. Everything about this restaurant was great. We came close to closing time on a Sunday so it was pretty dead, but I can see how busy and lively this place can be on a Friday or Saturday night. Service was great, the food was really good, and drinks tasty. The only thing I’d say is check your bill. They didn’t overcharge us but since I had an idea of what the bill would be in USD, I was shocked to see it was about $20 USD more. After talking to the waitress, she explained that paying in pesos is cheaper at the current 20 pesos per dollar rate. If you pay with a credit card, their exchange is 15 pesos per dollar. That said, we had enough to pay in pesos and took them up on that offer. You may not care but $20 USD is three drinks in Cabo. I had no problem with them determining the exchange rate as it is their restaurant, but I think it should be mentioned or there should be a sign, as most places do offer that info upon arrival. Would definitely return!
