5.0 out of 5 stars A must resource for a Cabo Trip, October 23, 2003

By	Erik Ramberg (Seattle, WA USA) - See all my reviews

After returning from a first time trip to Cabo I was patting myself on the back for investing in this great resource. I really needed a guide to walk me through the predicted array of wonderful to horrible restaurants of the region. Fortunately I had stumbled upon the "Los Cabos Guide to Good Eating" ensuring a well fed vacation. I've travelled around frequently and tend to have a diverse and picky palate, and I have to say that every place I tried based on the book was as good or better in terms of food quality than the review contained in the book.
Please note that the prices in Cabo have gone up considerably lately, but this new addition seems to fix the descrepancies. (note that I used the previous edition while in Cabo.) FYI, it's hard to find a meal at one of the upper end restaurants that doesn't cost even more than it would at home! Fortunately the authors provide many less expensive eateries for those nights that you want something simple...but some of those more expensive places are well worth the splurge...(like the French Riviera...)
If you're going to Cabo and you don't like eating bad expensive food, buy this book today!

5.0 out of 5 stars Yum!, September 9, 2003

By A Customer

This guide provides great info on the best places to eat in Los Cabos. You'll know where to go, what to expect, and find some amazing restaurants you won't find otherwise. We've been to Cabo several times before, but this guide really helped make our last trip special. The second edition has tons of new restaurants and information. Definitely worth purchasing.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent Resource! Great Recommendations! A+++, January 13, 2006

By	Stephanie L. Shields "Stephanie Shields" (San Francisco, CA USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This guide was a godsend! With so many restaurants in and around Cabo you never know what to expect or who will rip you off. We followed the guide for breakfast, lunch and dinner and even recommended places to fellow travelers and everyone loved it. The descriptions are great and you know what you're getting into: type of food served, atmosphere, price, family friendly, etc., so it makes it easy to choose the right spot. The little update insert is great (everyone knows restaurants come and go) and with it you know what the locals know in finding good eats!

I love the in-town restaurants that we found in the guide but the out of the way places were truly fabulous and fun - a little adventure and great food makes for lasting memories. We went to an out of the way restaurant called Buzzard's that was right on the beach, the food was great and affordable and they had large bird cages filled with parrots. We ate, played on the beach and watched the sunset - it was beautiful! This last trip to Cabo outshined our others and a big part of it was great dining experiences thanks to the Los Cabos Guide to Good Eating and More!
