    I found this place which was really close to the condo where I was staying. I had the Mezcal experience. David was a great server and explained the food and other details in English. The food pairings were amazing with the Mezcal. The place is really cool to see during the day. I loved the garden, cars, the dog and other decor. It was a great experience. I came early at 16:15 and pretty much had the place to myself. I would recommend making reservations well in advance to get the prime dining time slots.

    I have spent much time in Cabo and visited many of the best and most popular restaurants. I made a reservation at Metate based on TripAdvisor reviews, and I was with several discerning friends. Our experience at Metate was a wonderful revelation, and it has gone to the top of our list of favorite dining experiences. Agreed, finding the restaurant is a bit challenging if you are driving your own car, because it requires going fairly north on the corridor, doubling back, and locating the turn off into a dirt road that looks unpromising at first. But the lights on the outside of the restaurant and the ample parking make it a clear destination. The interior is absolutely charming, with an open courtyard filled with trees and tables spread around them. We were greeted warmly by the serving staff, and Victor was especially delightful with a sly sense of humor and attentive care. The menu had many unusual and authentic- seeming items listed, and we enjoyed everything we ordered from the specialty margaritas to the beet salad with goat cheese, the grilled corn, the soft-shell crab, the beef filet, and the fruit-covered flan/cheesecake for my birthday dessert (accompanied by singing and a sparkler/candle)! We highly recommend this restaurant.

    The place is just what you would expect! Capturing the essence of the authentic Mexican culture in one place. The food is delicious, the setting, and the staff is very friendly. I truly enjoyed my birthday dinner there. Special thanks to our server, Victor!

    Victor provided some of the best service we’ve ever had. He had a complete grasp of the menu and curated our meal to perfection. The food was next level, layering flavors in each dish. The empanada ceviche was a standout and will be a dish we think about for years to come. The ambience was amazing and the vibes were immaculate. It’s easy to see why Metate has earned a Michelin Bib Gourmand 2 years running. A star can’t be far away.

    One of the best experiences we’ve ever had a a restaurant and we have been to many Michelin in NYC, LA etc. They have it all, the amazing outdoor ambiance, amazing fresh food but honestly the best part was David our server and his Team (Kevin). They took suck good care of us, better than ANY restaurant we’ve ever been too. They were so attentive to us and we didn’t want for a thing at any moment. They even came out of nowhere every time we got up to move around to pull out and push in chairs. Cleared our table probably 4 times, made great recommendations (even the snake and scorpion mezcal)! Absolute perfection!! Well done ❤️
