    Way over priced, had great food just down the beach from there at more than half the price. Don't get me wrong, it was good food, but definitely not great. They started off by telling us, we are only allowed to be there for a hour. After paying$180 for 4 people (2 beers, 3 soft drinks, an appetizer, and 4 dishes), we should be allowed to sip our diet cokes as long as we want. View is great though!

    We spent hours here and never felt rushed. Best guacamole and pico ever! Big portions. Drinks are big and strong. Prices are not crazy. Service is amazing! This place is worth the hype. Loved the tequila shot guy! Great overall vibe from everyone there.

    Great spot on the beach to grab a margarita and a beer. Tell your significant other that you’re headed to the “office,” and enjoy the rest of the day :) Or bring them along if they’re fun!

    Great spot right on the beach. Food and service was really good. One piece of advice - don't take a table on the 1st row closest to the water - the locals selling goods will bug you. You wanna get close though so you can take in all the activity. Great place to experience local Cabo San Lucas.

    So this restaurant came highly recommended... here's my take. We had the fried calamari to start...yummy and HUGE! this is an appetizer for at least 4 people. The food was very good, very fresh seafood! I had the Bahía Shrimp, they were yummy, butterflied jumbo shrimp in garlic butter. A tiny bit over cooked. The refried beans were awesome, but they give a portion that is tiny. I get it, the star of the show is supposed to be the shrimp. Oh well. The rice...eh. I didn't care for it. I had beer, but the day before we'd had a margarita. Watered-down. Also eh. So the atmosphere is great, the decorations very festive, and the view of the Arch is great. They had a duo playing and the music was very good. My negatives, very overrated. Food was good, but I had better while in Cabo. I saw a couple of flying cockroaches...that made me want to leave. I understand there are a lot of trees, water, etc.

    Great food and lots of tequila! Can't go wrong with any of the food. There is lots of shade provided by blue umbrellas so you can sit on the sand close to beach. Don't be right in front near rope though, you will get bombarded non-stop with people selling souvenirs. While eating and drinking, you're allowed to go into beach water to cool off and come back in. Pretty mellow and you will hear the music from next door. Suggest making a reservation, especially for larger parties; place is always busy.

    This place came highly recommended, and it did not disappoint. Our waiter, Carlos, made great conversations with us, kept us entertained and informed. The location is right on the beach, with a great breeze coming through. The atmosphere was lively and people were all enjoying themselves, as were we. The food was great, the live music was outstanding, and the drinks were on point. Do not miss this place while in Cabo.

    Amazing lively ambience. Food was really good but quite pricey probably due to location and popularity. Service was very average the server seemed annoyed after he tried to upsell some fresh catch if the day and we did not pick. Barely checked on our table for anything. That said it's a must try spot in Cabos mostly due to ambience and good food.

    Excellent dinner on the beach. Restaurant is decorated super cute, with lots of colors and lights. We went just before sunset and enjoyed watching the harbor. Food was prepared beautiful and had lots of flavor, our server was top notch and a seasoned professional. Very attentive and friendly. Highly recommend the table side Bananas Foster 😍 Only critique is in regards to the hecklers on the beach side of the restaurant trying to sell you things and staring at you during a fancy/expensive dinner. I am thankful we were not seated at the edge of the restaurant where they are right in your face the entire time or it would've ruined the whole experience. Definitely recommend making a reservation ahead of time if you can.

    The atmosphere was awesome, the location was fantastic. The servers were great and very kind/helpful. The only reason it got 4 instead of 5 stars was the price of the food. It was good food, but not amazing for those prices. I would go there again for the fun atmosphere... and if it was just me and my wife, but for larger families it gets expensive fast.

    Were looking for a nice Beachy vibe for lunch. This was in the center of a lot of lively bars. They have a cool set up that has seating right on the beach. They had plenty of seating but were slammed. We luckily still were able to get a table. Good food, great drinks, and awesome ambiance.

    Amazing food, Huge coconut shrimps, wonderful guacamole, great seafood, and the experience was fun, especially the Mexican coffee at dessert, just watching it be made was fun! The only slightly annoying thing was all the beach vendors, our table was right by the rope, so it was crazy having to wave them all off, but it's the place to be if you DO want to shop for anything! I recommend making reservations EARLY, otherwise, you may not get in, super popular and right on the beach.

    A little over-hyped for our liking. We also visited during a port visit from a cruise ship, so it was really busy. Cruisers are the ones over valuing the rating here, but I'm sure it is better than cruise meals, so understandable. We may have gotten the wrong dishes as well, so we will visit again during a normal time and report back. Not a bad restaurant, but apart from the atmosphere, the food and service was not exceptional.

    This is a great place to go for a good meal in Cabo. We happen to be able to sit at a table closest to the ocean. These tables are in the sand on the beach. At high tide the water washed up under our table a couple of times. The beautiful scenery is tempered with many vendors at the edge of the dining area "gently" selling trinkets as well as some potentially offensive apparel. Everything we ate here was delicious. I suggest getting an inexpensive taxi to this location and back to port if you arrive by cruise ship like I did. It's about a 5 minute drive or 30 minute walk.

  • 5/5 Jen L. 2 years ago on Google
    We were in Cabo for 8 days and went into downtown to this place twice for breakfast…It’s amazing! The view, the food, the service all top notch. Would highly recommend checking this place - even if your not staying in downtown! We will be back.

  • 5/5 Bob S. 2 years ago on Google
    Our favorite go to place in Cabo. The food is amazing and authentic and the service is always professional and playful. You can’t beat the ambience sitting on the beach with your feet in the sand, enjoying one of their classic margaritas. It’s a bit pricey, but it will be your best day at the office!🤣

  • 5/5 William H. 2 years ago on Google
    No trip to Cabo is complete without one stop at the Office. The place runs at a frantic pace, there always something happening and it is amazing that the staff doesn't run into each other. Prices and food are good...but you go for the atmosphere. They have draft beer and it's cold. A hint: make reservations as it is crowded even mid week when the cruise ships are not floating in the harbor. Maybe $5 or $10 to the right person will get you a table if you forgot to get a reservation.

  • 5/5 Gabrielle W. 2 years ago on Google
    Absolutely loved this spot. After getting terrible service from our hotel we walked down the beach a bit to find somewhere else to eat/spend our money. Our bartender was absolutely amazing and kept our glasses and shot glasses filled. Walked out of there with a new favorite tequila that we were able to buy a bottle of as well. Food is decent. But the service makes this place worth your time.

  • 3/5 Greg Seikaly (DeathBehindU #. 10 months ago on Google
    Atmosphere was good, But for the quality of food, the price was not worth it. It was comparable to eating at the hotel as far as quality of food. If you’re going to go when you’re going to be going for the atmosphere nothing really else there’s a guy that goes around, called the office, Rambo pours shots down your throat, however, without much enthusiasm.

  • 4/5 Ahmed A. 2 years ago on Google
    Popular place with a good vibe, but can be over the top sometimes. The food is good and the portions are filling. It is on the more expensive side though. Like all restaurants in the area, they have vallet parking, which is good if you came with a car. Good luck finding legal parking on your own.

  • 4/5 Dave G. 4 months ago on Google
    Fiesta time! Great food, service, atmosphere and entertainment! The Office is a must visit dinning experience however, if you prefer a quite meal, this might not be the place for you. If you want family friendly entertainment and beach side dinning, this is the place for you!

  • 3/5 Sayra S. 4 months ago on Google
    Such a pretty restaurant with an amazing view! Yes, it is a tourist trap! We spent over $500 USD The food was good, the oysters 🦪 were delicious! Our waiter was really attentive and food didn’t take long to be served. You do have employees taking pictures, that they will sell you plus “home made tequila that they also push to sell” and the tip, also persuade you to tip over for each server and the vendors 🙃

  • 5/5 Brandon F. 1 year ago on Google
    Great atmosphere, tons of shade. Great food and a plethora of good Tequila's........one of the best margaritas I've ever had. A little pricy, but your literary right on the beach. So no worries!!

  • 5/5 Martina F. 1 year ago on Google
    Super fun place! Menu seems pricey at first but it’s well worth the money. Three of us had the Cajun tuna which was awesome and the portion was huge- I mean a huge piece of tuna! The lobster tacos were great and the steaks were fabulous too! We did see a whole red snapper go out to someone and that looked amazing! Make a reservation or you won’t get in.

  • 5/5 D K. 1 year ago on Google
    Had a fun family lunch here. Yes, it can be noisy but it is all part of the fun and atmosphere down here on Medano and the food is fabulous. Their guacamole and chips starter is fabulous and you have to get the garlic crabs and calamari...absolutely fabulous. Plenty of entertainment included too. About usd200 for 5 which felt reasonable for the amount of food and drink we had. Would definitely go back.

  • 4/5 Michael 10 months ago on Google
    Great place for a big group and those who came to Cabo to party. Otherwise, this place might be too lively for some couples. The biggest downside of this place is the overpriced food. Def wayyy overpriced even if it’s beachfront especially since the serving is small. Same pricing as some of the most expensive restaurants in Maui where the food is actually much better.

  • 5/5 Lemon 4tea S. 11 months ago on Google
    Sheltered a bit more from the wind, this restaurant on the beach was great! Food choice was great. Starters, mains : fresh fish and veges, and the chocolate creme brulee was fantastic. The atmosphere was fabulous with 'Rambo' providing lots of laughs at every table. A vet from the Reptile sanctuary was on-site with one of the predator birds (owl). He was great to chat to, and learn more about how they are controlling the vermin population around the area, using the birds. So much better than having poison everywhere! Please donate to the vets when you see them at the restaurants, they are doing a great job with the rescue of these birds.

  • 4/5 Cindy S. 11 months ago on Google
    Lots of energy and a lively place to be. We sat towards the bar and not on the sandy area to avoid the vendors. They were right by the edge so we didn't want to deal with that. Food was good. But not sure if it was worth the money for a taxi ride there from our resort. Ordered whole fried snapper, burrata salad, shrimp bisque in a bread bowl and carrot cake. Food was very fresh. The waiter gave us and extra bread bowl. Thought that was very random and awesome!

    Great atmosphere, great staff. The service was fast and efficient. The place was packed on a Saturday night, reservations are recommended! Especially for a larger group. The drinks are good size and price. The food was delicious and served quickly, right temperature and presentation. Live music was present, but could be hard to hear if neighboring places have music too. The seating is outdoors under the sky and was very comfortable, but depending on weather, it could get a bit breezy.

  • 5/5 Jainif M. 3 years ago on Google
    Cool place for dinner with great service and a nice crowd. Lies on the beach but we didn’t have a table near the vendors so avoided that negative that others were quoting. The food was solid when it came to seafood but the non seafood dishes were ok at best. We got the corn cake for dessert and that was ok too.

  • 5/5 Todd L. 3 years ago on Google
    Wonderful place for dinner. Wait staff recommended the seafood but we went with the obvious, mexican. Did not disappoint. So nice eating dinner with your shoes off on the beach and make sure you’ve got ahold of em. Wife’s flip flops almost got swept away when a good wave came up onto the sand. Live music, great food and good drinks. We were staying at Pueblo Bonita rose so it was a nice walk on the beach to and from. Highly recommended but get reservations because they fill up fast.

  • 4/5 Marc J. 3 years ago on Google
    Nice spot with friendly staff and good pricing of quality food. Easy to get to and brunch time wasn't too busy. Valet parking available for tip only. Good views. Seats closest to the beach need to be comfortable dealing with all the beach vendors. They just don't stop coming by but are polite enough.

    A very nice place to enjoy dinner for two or groups. Very friendly and attentive staff. The red snapper, fajita and sea bass are highly recommended. They had live music which was a real treat. Overall, a great night out for a very reasonable price.
