Our server, David, was amazing in every way, as was the ambiance here with a live cover band & lovely decor. Our tacos were only so so overall but the shrimp one was perfect. The sirloin had a lot of grisle and I was so excited about the cheese crust tacos but they were horribly greasy - to the point I had to rest them on an angle to drain & request extra napkins. Lastly, I wish they had another ceviche option bc sweet potato in ceviche is a no for me. Also beware their tajin is very spicy if you’re a wimp like me, but otherwise the margaritas were good.

If you are vacationing to Cabo and love Italian food then this place is a must. High class, nice ambience, professional help and amazing food. Not your average Italian restaurant experience! The owner, from Italy, came over to our table and introduced himself and made sure we were enjoying the food and the overall experience. 5- Stars! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Home made is the best!

Excellent food and service! Their condiments stole the show. Also very attentive service and amazing views. For what you get the prices are quite reasonable. The biggest downside is the hassle to actually go up the hill to the restaurant. It's a bumpy road and you need to get past a security gate.

We were thrilled to have The Italian Job, El Tezal, open in our area. Father's Day dinner was outstanding. The service was outstanding. We highly recommend everyone to have an Italian Job experience. 😀
