For the voyager in everyone comes a restaurant that evokes wanderlust and awakens your palate. The specialty: robatayaki, a table side Japanese grill and the freshest produce from the sea. The setting: a beautiful nest-like structure suspended between ocean and land, and surrounded by “espejos de agua,” literally water mirrors, magical in their own right. It’s a setting fit for an adventurer.

    So this restaurant is super over priced! The food is nothing to write home about, and it's salty. Guys, they even had the nerve to charge a 25% service charge of your total check and wanted us to give them additional tips. And the taxes are way above average. Dont go, guys, find somewhere else and thank me later

    We love the location and restaurant but the quality of food seems to have declined. The shrimp tempura used to be the best I hade ever eaten; now over cooked and the tempura was very heavy and greasy. Hopefully they will refocus on the quality as such a great location

    They restaurant was beautiful we had a great seat with an amazing view, the food presentation was done well and tasted good. The only drawback was the price. Be prepared to spend quite a bit as these aren't meals, but small shareable plates. My recommendation would be they post their menu with prices online so people can decide if they want/can go and not have the bill be a hard pull to swallow.

    Increíble el diseño del lugar, la atención en todo momento fue bastante buena, los precios de los alimentos son altos considerando la calidad, hubo cosas verdaderamente excepcionales como el nigiri de salmón flameado y los bao buns, los demás platillos muy normales. Fue una buena experiencia y es un lugar excelente para hacer fotos.

    Beautiful atmosphere and great service. Food was really good as well and great wine selection. The issue we had was the heat. It was almost unbearable to eat in peace because we were dripping sweat. Would really recommend some fans or some sort of air flow to make the total experience.

    We loved the unusual ambience of Nido, and everyone on the staff was outstanding. They catered to our every need. The food was creative and tasty, if a bit strange. The fresh raw oysters were perfection, but the fois gras appetizer was an odd paring. I loved my wagyu beef stir-fry, but my husband's salmon skewers were definitely overcooked. The cheesecake was lighter than usual. I missed the glorious smoothness of the traditional cheesecake, and the wasabi sorbet did not appeal to me though my husband liked it. The greatest challenge was the heat. There are no fans or air conditioning in the restaurant, and, by the end of the meal, the heat was really oppressive. The meal was also expensive for the quantity of food.

    Quality of the food is not there for a restaurant at that caliber. The service was not there either, we had no water left and the servers never came to check. I also had to call a server to grab our check.

    Nido is a very cool restaurant. Service was mediocre. They were all very nice just a little slow. Food was delicious. We had the salmon, beef, tempura prawns, asparagus and fried rice. We also had lime, mango and passion fruit sorbet. All three were delicious.

    My Partner and I were visiting San Jose del Cabo for the week, we stayed in a condo a short walk from the Viceroy. I was looking up local restaurants, and Nido definitely stood out, and it already had some glowing reviews. I checked out the menu and figured out how to make a reservation online. We had a 6:30 reservation, we were sat right away, by the very charming host. The staff went out of their way to make us feel comfortable, we had everything we needed and more! The waiter we had was super informative and knowledgeable about the food, he answered all questions we had as well. The ambiance was perfect, the location is just so beautiful, we were lucky enough to be there as it was getting dark, so the outside area around the pools was all lit up. The food came quickly but still at a good pace. Everything was so outstandingly delicious, I don't think I could pick a favorite. The mushrooms salad was really amazing though. I would recommend dining at Nido if you're in the San José area, it is such an experience, definitely worth it.

    Was everything is in small plates and sharing would be good for waiters to provide a bit more guidance on how much to order. We ordered multiples of the same dish to accommodate 6 people when 1 would have been shareable. Too much food! Mostly Delicious and very unique. The beef dish was mostly rice and very expensive. The pulpo tacos were ok and extremely expensive. Everything else was outstanding Ambience was amazing.

    It was a pleasant dining experience at Nido. The architecture of the restaurant is a combination of modern and natural. The picture of the restaurant would be an addition to your instagram photo gallery. The waiters are very friendly and professional. They explain how the food in the menu are prepared. Every time I request a service, they get it done promptly. This give you a feeling that you are well attended. They use good quality ingredients. The yellow tall sashimi was very fresh and in good grade. The Warm Mushrooms salad was surprisingly good. The mushrooms are char grilled to perfection; they were so aromatic and juicy. The only draw back of the restaurant is the price! They set the price too high. Although I had a great experience with this restaurant, it is worth it to go there at least once, for the experience!

    Very beautiful location, design and ambiance - highly recommend for those aspects. The drinks are a little overpriced, and while the food is great in quality and presentation I think the total bill sways primarily to the location. Overall made for a nice night out.

    I came here with friends for a celebratory/birthday dinner. The pictures did not disappoint…this was one of the most beautiful places I’ve ever dined. The ambiance and experience was stunning. The raw bar and appetizers were delicious, but the main items they presented in their entrees were extremely underwhelming. They seemed a little short-staffed, but thankfully the restaurant wasn’t too big, so even though it took a while to get some of our food, it wasn’t too terrible. They have a good wine selection, and because of how beautiful this place is, I would come back.

    La arquitectura del Hotel y del restaurante es increíble, y gracias a eso resulta una muy buena experiencia. La atención de todo el personal muy buena. La comida con buen sabor pero nada excepcional, por lo que el costo de ésta se me hace muy caro, vale la pena el costo de la comida por el lugar en sí, no por lo que se ingiere.

    Positives: Beautiful setting. Interesting menu. Friendly staff. Negatives: wine markup (including local wines), attention to timing (dishes served too quickly even when asked to wait until we were finished - we had to ask twice, and the dining room was not busy - our warm salad became cold as it eas brought to the table before we were even halfway through the prior ceviche, the sautéed beef also became cold as it was served before we were finished with the karaage). The timing issue impacted the taste, and we felt rushed rather than being able to truly enjoy the experience.

    Enjoyed our first night at the beautiful Viceroy having dinner at Nido. Service is impeccable—both our servers were attentive and helpful. We were greeted warmly upon arriving. The sashimi and hamachi were delicious and the grilled chicken skewers and mixed rice dish tasty also. Prices are high but expected for the Viceroy.

    The service was wonderful. They walked us through the whole menu and experience. While prices shocked us a bit on the food, the flavors and design were incredible. Add in the ambiance and it was a perfect special occasion date night. However the cocktails felt very overpriced, with average at $25 USD. They did offer a local resident discount on the entire bill which was nice.
