    Pineapple mezcalita and pastor tacos hit the spot for me this time around! Any time I'm in Cabo I'm always looking for somewhere that stands out as a place I'd like to revisit- Captain Tony's hit that mark. Flavorful bites and a cocktail strong enough to eliminate any stress for the day... though... who has stress on vacation?! :-) Glad I decided to make the stop because it can be hard to find places that are worth a revisit when in high tourist locations.

    This place is great location, right on the Mariana. But it has definitely lost its touch over the years. My family went there ( 7 of us) and I was the only who enjoyed my food. I ordered a plain cheese quesadilla and it was DELICOIUS. My hubs and mom ordered the fish tacos and were disappointed. The service was good and you can't beat the views. I will give it another chance next year, but they are busy so maybe it was a one off situation.

    Recommended by the bookie on our cruise since we were looking for good ceviche, and this was the closest solid spot he suggested. The ambiance was great, with a live band playing while we dined. They were very accommodating to our baby and provided a high chair, which we really appreciated. We ordered the mixed ceviche, tuna tostada, and breaded shrimp entrée, everything was delicious. We also ordered a michelada, and it was absolutely on point.

    Great seafood restaurant on the Marina. It's big with lots of seating, but it gets crowded really quickly! Service was friendly and fast. Their guacamole was amazing! They make it for you right in front of your table, and it was delicious! We ordered the enchiladas, dynamite shrimp, and fish tacos. Food was good, but it wasn't the best I've had, especially for Mexico. Dynamite shrimp was really spicy, so be careful if you can't eat spicy like me. Their flavored margaritas were delicious too. They have virgin versions too for strawberry and mango if you want a special drink but can't drink alcohol.

    Really liked this place. We ordered the Tuna Tostadas, 3 Al pastor tacos, and 3 shrimp tacos. The tuna tostadas were delicious. Super fresh and had a really good flavor. The salsa that comes with it is a little smoky flavor. I really liked the al pastor tacos. Super big portion with really good flavor. My mom enjoyed her shrimp tacos too. Would definitely come back here again.

    The food here is great. They have such a wide variety of food you can choose from the service is top-notch. The ambience is nice look back and there's the marina with all the boats and yachts.

    Tuna 4 ways !

    Always on a mission to eat at as many different restaurants as possible while in Cabo. Captain Tony's has never been on my wish list. Last night in Cabo and didn't want to walk or cab anywhere so we did the easy thing and came here. So glad we did. The view is right on the marina , the service may was amazing and the tuna platter 4 ways was amazing ! We will be back in October!

    Cadillac Margarita

    Really good food. I had Buffalo Wings, the best garkic bread I've had in a long while, a pizza that was pretty good. The drinks were also good (not weak). The wait staff was attentive and friendly. Sat on the rail and people watched and enjoyed the view. I'll be back.

    "A Gem on the Cabo San Lucas Marina!" Captain Tony's is Nestled right by the water, this restaurant offers a cozy, family oriented, super chill vibe, perfect for a casual breakfast, lunch, dinner or just drinks and appetizers. We started off with some freshly made guacamole in a large molcajete, shrimp nachos and the guys ordered a bucket of beer which came with chips with green and red salsa. My pina colada and margarita with Don Julio hit the spot! Everything tasted soooo good and it was made fresh! They even have wood fired pizzas made to order. The service was just as impressive as the food. Our server Sandra and her assistant were friendly, attentive, and quick to offer great recommendations from both the menu and the drink list. The staff clearly takes pride in making their customers feel welcome. With the marina as a backdrop, the views made the experience even more special. Watching the boats sway away while enjoying tasty food was unforgettable. Captain Tony's is a must-visit if you're in Cabo, whether for the fresh seafood, excellent service, or stunning location. I'll definitely be returning on my Next vacation :)

    Fun environment but tons of bees and boardwalk venders hollering at you while you eat. Decent service but kinda small so if you go when one of the cruise ships docks you might have to wait a decent amount of time.

    Captain Tony's Restaurant & Bar, nestled in the heart of Cabo San Lucas' marina, offers a vibrant and festive atmosphere that enhances the dining experience. The live preparation of fresh guacamole at your table, using a traditional mortar and pestle, adds an authentic touch to the meal. During our visit, my wife enjoyed the grilled shrimp tacos, I opted for the battered shrimp tacos, and our son chose the chimichanga burrito. Each dish was flavorful and satisfying, reflecting the quality of the seafood and the skill in preparation. As residents of Central California with access to excellent Mexican cuisine, we were pleased to find that Captain Tony's met our high expectations. While the prices are on the higher side, likely due to the restaurant's prime location in a tourist area, the quality of the food and the enjoyable ambiance make it a worthwhile experience. For those seeking more budget-friendly options, exploring eateries a few blocks away from the main tourist paths might be beneficial. Overall, Captain Tony's delivers a commendable dining experience with its fresh ingredients, engaging atmosphere, and attentive service. It's a spot worth visiting for both locals and tourists seeking quality Mexican seafood dishes in Cabo San Lucas. PLEASE CHECK OUT MY PROFILE ACTIVITIES FOR REVIEWS OF OTHER BUSINESSES IN CABO SAN LUCAS AND ENSENADA--HOPEFULLY, I CAN GIVE YOU SOME DECENT GUIDANCE, AND BY THE WAY, YOU SHOULDN'T BE PAYING MORE THAN ABOUT 50'ISH PESOS FOR AN ASADA TACO!

    We got in late and found Tony's near our hotel for a quick bit to eat . Great restaurant on the marina for people watching . Live band and great food . We had tacos and ceviche both fresh and delicious. Staff was friendly, attentive and always with a smile . Great place .

    Homemade guac, chips and various salsas. Blue Hawaii and a horny gorilla drink.
    Diana P.

    Homeland guac at your table. Excellent preparation and taste! Crowded which tells you it's a must go to! Servers are friendly and there's even a local artist that sketches you at your table. The mariachi band is a nice touch as well!

    The food here is awesome. U must try the chocolate clams (clam order on the menu): ask the friendly…read morewaiter to do half raw half cooked (or all cooked if u cant bear raw seafood). Try the sauces they provide. Period. The seafood cocktail is also pretty good, plenty of sea-snail, scallops, shrimp, octopus in it. It's cash only, just beware. It's a small establishment and it gets busy past 7. It's two blocks away from marina so walkable if you live around that area.

    Mariscos La Palmita -- Incredible Seafood, Local Favorite & Amazing Value…read more This place came highly recommended, and after visiting, I totally understand why. The restaurant was packed with locals when we went -- always a great sign. Cash only, so come prepared. What We Ordered Chocolate Clams (Cooked) You can choose raw or cooked -- I went with cooked and it was delicious. Very fresh, no fishy smell at all. One thing to note: every seafood dish comes topped with garlic. I'm not a fan of garlic and didn't know ahead of time, so I rinsed it off with hot water -- still amazing. Calamari Fresh, tender, and very well cooked. Seafood Special Combination Fish and squid were excellent. Lobster and shrimp were okay, nothing too special compared to the others. Price & Value The prices here are unbelievably cheap. * 6 chocolate clams = 285 pesos * Waldorf restaurant: 2 clams for $48 USD * Another place we tried: 2 clams for 340 pesos After eating around Cabo, this place clearly stood out for both quality and price. We couldn't even finish everything and packed leftovers back to the hotel. Total bill for all dishes: around $100 USD -- incredible. Overall Huge portions, super fresh seafood, local vibes, and unbeatable value. If you're anywhere near Cabo San Lucas, this spot is a must-visit.

He's become a regular and I see why. Thank you Jorge and Luis for a fun evening. Ps. They even have ponchos here if you get cold.

Well, I now can say this is my new favorite place in Cabo! The atmosphere, the service, the food, the staff are all 5 stars! First we enjoyed a complimentary empanada which was a lovely start to the dinner. We then enjoyed the table side Caesar Salad made fresh which was absolutely phenomenal then served fresh sourdough bread with a garlic butter. Then the Coconut Shrimp appetizer was stunning and delicious! Along with the Imperial Shrimp as the main course! Plus, live music and blanket ponchos at every seat for added experience. We celebrated my Mom's birthday and they made her feel so special. We look forward to coming back again and referring friends and family to Tres Sirenas!

    A good traveler learns one thing fast: the best meals usually come from places that look like they…read moremight fail a beauty contest. That's exactly how you find Maro's Shrimp House. From the street it looks like a little hole-in-the-wall, the kind of spot you might almost miss if you're busy chasing fancy marina restaurants. But step inside and suddenly you're in on the secret. Open air, flags hanging everywhere, signatures on the walls from travelers who clearly had a very good night, and the kind of energy that says dinner might get a little rowdy. Now let's talk shrimp. Big, juicy, swimming in garlic, lime, butter, and Baja attitude. The kind of seafood that makes you stop mid-bite and look at your table like, "Yep... we picked the right place." If you love seafood with a Mexican twist, this place doesn't mess around. And then there's the legendary Bulldog drink. It's tequila, beer, citrus, and just enough mischief to make the table louder after the first round. Order one and you'll understand why people start signing their names on the walls like they just joined a Cabo fraternity. Bottom line: this isn't just dinner. It's a little Cabo adventure wrapped in garlic shrimp and cold drinks. If you want quiet elegance, go somewhere else. But if you want flavor, personality, and a story to tell later... pull up a chair. Killer line: Some restaurants serve food Maro's serves memories with a side of shrimp.

    I have been coming to Maro's Shrimp House since I found it, probably on Tripadvisor at the time,…read more way back in June 2016 and we make it a must on every trip to Cabo. Even when I was in Cabo on a cruise ship last Friday (11/28), had to hole up in my cabin on my laptop and work a half day (until 11am), missing out on my family's morning excursion all with a 1pm last tender call to get back to the ship... After my wife, mother-in-law, daughter & son's excursion with well reviewed Real Baja Tours (which I arranged separately instead of through the ship), all but my son were dropped off back at the ship as they wanted to skip out on the amazingness of Maro's. Yeah, I KNOW!! CRAZY!! The driver was nice enough to drop my son off at Maro's afterwards and the timing couldn't have been more perfect, just a few minutes before their 12pm opening time. Even though, we were a few minutes early, they gladly seated us right away. And very surprisingly, we were the only ones there for a good 20 minutes. From our very first visit in 2016, it is quite clear that the only things you need order is the shrimp and lobster which are fantastic...and THE BULLDOG (basically a giant schooner of margarita with an upended Coronita standing on its drowning head)...well, no Bulldogs for the boy. Service is very efficient and the friendly staff (despite not knowing too much English, except Maro himself, of course) is very attentive to any calls we had for refills of GARLIC WITH BUTTER (soooo much garlic, it was fantastic) & my dear, dear Bulldogs. Speaking of Bulldogs, they keep track of the most Bulldogs drunken in a sitting. I believe the current leader had 22...which is a superhuman feet because I was feeling quite FINE (read: tipsy) after my two. Also speaking of Bulldogs, on a visit in 2024, my kids, one friend of theirs and I witnessed a server giving 3 ladies a lapdance when they ordered one to share. Now that's service! Lol. Having told the staff we had to get outta there at 12:30pm, they delivered our wonderful meals very promptly and after first giving us totopos (tortilla chips) with two kinds of delicious salsa (well, a salsa and a pico de gallo). We each ordered the 1/4 kilo of lobster and 1/4 medium shrimp for $24.95 USD. (Note prices on the menu are conveniently in USD.) This was more than ample for one person but we prodded on and thoroughly enjoyed it, as always. With each plate, they serve the seafood with a very tasty rice pilaf and some pieces of squash or something I still can't figure out and after 2 Bulldogs, I completely forgot to ask about. They also give you a piping hot cup of that GARLIC WITH BUTTER served over a candle to keep hot which is brilliant. There is nothing worse than eating your giant platter of lobster and shrimp and the butter starts getting cold and becomes gluey and gloppy. That stuff is so good, we asked for another cup (and unlike American restaurants, it was free). On our visit in 2024, we actually got to meet Maro himself, took a picture with him, printed and framed it at home, brought it with us on the cruise and mounted it on the wall to the right of the L.A. Dodger flag, naturally. Since there wasn't any room left to write something with a provided marker, I added my DK to the bottom of the UCLA Bruin flag hidden near the back to the left. Oh, while you might think this place is a dingey dive by the look of the joint with its millions of marked up mostly collegiate flags lining the walls and rafters, the food makes it absolutely worth a visit...or two while you're in town. So save Edith's or Hacienda Y Cucina for the evenings (unless you want what I suspect would be a super fun & roudier crowd in the evenings). HIGHLY HIGHLY HIGHLY HIGHLY RECOMMEND! Wow, that's a David K 4x HIGHLY RECOMMEND so ya better go!
