Pezcabo — Restaurant in Baja California Sur

One of my new favourite restaurants is Pezcab, a 25-minute walk from the Marina. If you aren't familiar with Cabos, consider taking an Uber. The menu is only in Spanish, and even with Google Translate, it took some guessing to decipher. I downloaded some photos from Google to show what I wanted, not that I needed to, as there was one server whose English was so fluent that I could tell she studied abroad. We ordered ceviche, raw clams, octopus, tuna and fish tacos, and spicy tuna tostada. We tried two types of ceviche - a raw prawn and octopus ceviche and a mixed ceviche of fish, octopus, raw and cooked prawns. I've never tasted fresher seafood, so good that I didn't bother adding any of the dozen or so sauces on our table. I would get the ceviche again. The raw clams came chopped up and only needed a squirt of fresh lime. The clams were sweet and clean tasting with a pleasant chew. Lately, I've been more on a clam kick than oysters because I find the flavour and texture more appetizing. The spicy tuna tostada was a winner, taking on Asian flavours from the heavy mayonnaise and sesame seeds. The portion was so much that I asked Chew Steel to help me finish it. The diced tuna was cool in temperature and firm, and you could still taste the quality of the fish. My octopus taco was delicious. The octopus was tender to the tooth, stewed with onions and cooked in a soy-based sauce. On our second visit, one of the servers brought us complimentary shots of mescal with slices of orange. I found this liquor so smooth that I wanted to order a second one but restrained myself as it was a long walk back to our hotel. Next time we visit, I would like to try fried pork, tuna ceviche, baked clams,...

We had high hopes based on the positive reviews. We would not recommend.

I ordered seafood cerviche but I think they brought me shrimp cerviche as there was no sign of any other type of seafood in it. The cerviche was the only thing that came close to being good. The grilled fish was multiple small thin pieces, not one whole filet. It was way over-cooked, dry and tough. It was not edible. The soup had very little seafood, 2 shrimp, a postage stamp size piece of fish and 1/2 a tiny crab. Extremely disappointed for $50 U.S. dollars.

If you can speak spanish you might be in a position to argue or send your food back,...

Great seafood spot hidden in the back streets of Cabo San Lucas, comfortably tucked away from the craziness of the Medano Beach area. I got the feeling that locals like to eat here, so I figured it would be a good spot, and it certainly didn't disappoint.

I had an absolute feast for lunch here. Get a seafood tower for the table ("torre de mariscos") and a couple of tostadas (i preferred these over the fried seafood taco) That will get you pretty full along with a health serving of totopos and some complimentary seafood consomme. The prices are great for the amount and...
