We recently celebrated our 15-year wedding anniversary at Harryâs Cabo in Cabo San Lucas, and it was truly an unforgettable experience from start to finish.
The meal started with freshly baked house rosemary bread served with homemade sea salt butter, setting the tone for the evening with its fragrant, warm welcome. We were served bottled Stillwater, I love that the restaurant provides an accompaniment for your water. They offer lemon, cucumber, mint, and orange slices.
The cocktails were top-notch. The Titoâs and fresh in-house hibiscus drink was refreshing and bright, while the amaretto sour with egg white was hands down the best Iâve ever hadâsmooth, balanced, and beautifully crafted.
Our starters included a shrimp cocktail, served in a creative presentation with avocado, sliced cucumbers, and saltine crackersâa nice touch that gave it a homey yet refined feel. The dynamite empanada was bursting with savory sautĂŠed beef, carrots, and spices definitely a must try.
For the main dishes , the Jackâs Creek Black Angus 14 oz ribeye from Australia aged 28 days, was absolutely incredible, juicy, tender, and perfectly grilled with a smoky char that really brought out the flavor. The Chilean seabass was another standout dish, served over a rich and silky cauliflower purĂŠe that we couldnât get enough of.
With the steak, we had the French fry tower, with a drizzle of truffle oil, paprika, and Parmesan cheese, decadent and addictive. The lobster mac & cheese was delicate, cheesy, and indulgent, making it the perfect side dish.
For dessert, we ordered the berry cheesecake to go, but were surprised by a beautifully presented chocolate and raspberry dessert topped with fresh fruit and a lit firework candleâa thoughtful anniversary gesture. Just when we thought the surprises were over, we were delighted by a cotton candy goodbye treat, spun in-house and full of whimsy. Service was flawless. Omar, our waiter, was knowledgeable, attentive, and made us feel genuinely cared for. Both the manager Diego and general manager JĂ´rgĂŞ came by the table and were incredibly warm and professional, you can tell they take real pride in delivering a high-level guest experience.
The ocean and Cabo arch views only added to the magic of the evening. And the valet parking was a much-appreciated convenience in an area where parking can be a challenge.
Harryâs Cabo isnât just a mealâitâs an experience. Between the incredible food, the exceptional service, and the attention to detail, it was the perfect way to celebrate a milestone. We canât wait to return and recommend it without hesitation to anyone visiting...

Unfortunately a disappointing experience at Harry's on a Saturday evening. Having eaten at Ilios in Los Cabos and PDC a few times, given it's the same owners I expected a similar level of quality but with a different menu/vibe.
The positive:
The staff are attentive and really trying to give you a good experience, the live music was great, the decor and view is great. Cotton candy is a great touch.
Crab cake was delicious. It's one of my favorite appetizers when done well and it didn't disappoint. The sweet corn was great.
The negative:
We arrived at 7:35 for a 7:30 reservation, and were seated at the bar while we waited for our table to open up. We were brought some bacon and a shot which was a nice touch. Around 8:20 we were finally offered a table and brought over. We were again offered a drink menu and after some time asked about the food menu so we could order some appetizers, we were told we would get it after the presentation of the meat. So it ended up being close to an hour and a half before we got something to eat.
I've ordered the King crab leg at Ilios (which given they are next door I expected it to be similar). Here it did not have the usual sweetness, and had not been kept chilled well. We had to ask for crab forks.
The worst part of the experience was the steaks. Steak is one of my favorite foods, both to make at home and to try steakhouses around the world. I ordered a dry aged NY, and my partner a Jack's Creek Filet, both medium. Both came out overcooked and completely dry. I mentioned this to my waiter and he said that dry aged steaks don't stay pink because of the dry aging. This would not explain the completely overcooked nature, nor the other steak. No other remedy offered.
Given each steak the crab legs are over $100 each, it's not acceptable to send out food in such...
