Il Splendido Los Cabos — Restaurant in Baja California Sur

We had a lovely dining experience at Il Splendido. To start, we ordered the bread basket, which came with butter and caramelized garlic—an absolute delight! The sourdough was also very good. We also shared a burrata, which was perfect—fresh, delicious, and beautifully presented.

For the main course, we had the filet mignon, ordered medium-well. However, it was not cooked evenly—some parts were indeed medium-well, but the center was closer to medium.

We dined on a Sunday night. We were the only table in the restaurant. Drinks were slow as well as main courses. What shocked us the most was that the waiter “kindly” offered bread while we were waiting for food and to our surprise the bread was charged at the end of the meal as well as the very expensive water (waiters must ask if you want house water or the expensive one in my opinion). We ordered a scoop of ice cream chocolate flavor and it came vanilla, on the menu said 50 pesos per scoop and they charged 100, the scoop was very small. Just keep this in mind when you visit. They try to take advantage of the customers. Overall the food and service were ok, we won’t be back. Zenna (sister restaurant)...
