We are vegans, but even if you aren't, this is hands down the best vegan food we have ever had! Wow! Sooooo fresh. So impressive. So innovative. The food was delicious, entrees I have never had before. The cocktails were also super super tasty and unique. This is a Cabo MUST!

Tres leches cake
Christy W.

Came here to pick up some take out after a long tiring day of water activities and we decided to sit down for some tres leches cake because the environment here was sooo zen and beautiful. There was some guy playing a guitar and singing and the music was sooo soothing and calm it made us feel super at peace with the heat and all the crazy exciting activities we did that day. The waiters were also super friendly which added to the experience. I found myself at peace here which is amazing. Mako is a vegan and vegetarian place so this place doesn't serve meat. I really wish I had gotten a burger because most people here get a burger or sandwich and it looks BOMB. Instead I got the caprese pasta because I was really craving it. My friend got a salad and the pesto pasta and she loved it as well. We also got some pineapple ice drink and it looked really awesome but too sweet we couldn't finish even 1/3 of it. None the less I would totally come back next time for the burger!!!

mushroom sashimi

we stumble upon this place and as vegans visiting Cabo, it was an absolute dream. we got the empanadas, sashimi and tacos. all of them were soooo good that we even got doubles of some. this is definitely going to be a spot we come back to when we visit the city

OMG, doesnt sum this place up!!! sooo good! its worth the trip if you are anywhere close to the area. The food was OUTSTANDING!!! We had the hotdog and the burger. Best Vegetarian food I've ever eaten. They can also make the food vegan if you need it to be. I met one of the owners, and she was super friendly and very informative about the food. Everything is made fresh there! Dont just walk to this place, RUN! FAST!

Great food, everything was so fresh. The staff was super accommodating. The restaurants also really cute, and such a great place to hang out.

Gazpacho soup on the house!

The best vegan/vegetarian food in Cabo. Took us a bit of time to find but once we did we were very satisfied. Great variety of foods and everything is served and prepared with great great. Presentation and ambiance is very pleasant and impressive. Loved the family-like feel with their own fresh garden, pug, and friendly staff. Definitely a must to visit whether you're vegan or not.

Love love love. Wonderful ambience, enjoyed the music (earlier in the day a chill house- like vibe with some beats as the afternoon progressed), the service and kind hospitality, and the food! The best vegan burger I've ever had next to a beet burger on the beach in Ecuador. Amidst all the surf and turf, we were so happy to find good clean vegan options. We ordered the big vegan and the Hawaiian burgers. After a long walk on the beach to get here, out was everything we needed and more. Thank you Mako!

I am working in Cabo for 17 days and finding a variety of vegan food hasn't been the easiest of ventures. I am beyond thrilled to come across Mako. It's adorable location is inviting and warm. The staff is always smiling and moving at the speed of light to bring you all the goodness. It was prompt without feeling rushed. Upon sitting I was greeted with chips and a beet/apple salsa that was thru the roof delicious. I ordered the 'Big Mako' - a lentil burger with caramelized onions and mushrooms, served with potato wedges, pickled jalapeños/onions/pickles. It was incredibly good. Taking advantage of being at a veg/vegan restaurant I HAD to have dessert. Today's dessert was a key lime tart made with avocado in what tasted like a date/coconut crust and topped with fresh fruit. At one point, I'm pretty sure my server caught me licking the plate. Speaking of licking, there is the most adorable pug scooting around from table to table making sure everyone is smiling and doing quality control. I have another 13 days here and don't fault me if I'm back every one of them.

Wow! So exciting to find a vegan spot in downtown Cabo. All of their ingredients are fresh, healthy, and tasty. We tried a variety to explore the menu. We started with a non-alcoholic freshening drink. Fresh cucumber, pineapple, and water. So good. We ordered a hot dog, Mexican bowl, and pasta. All were fantastic. We felt satisfied while also leaving feeling healthy. Truly nourishing food. Venue: super cute outdoor restaurant. Natural wood tables with green accents. All nicely done with a rustic organic touch. And all nicely shaded from the sun. Service: friendly, personable, and fast. And the lady helping us spoke English very well. Look for the resident doggie. A cute white and black pug. So cute. We will be back.

Big Vegan Burger- the Best!

Who knew Vegan could taste so good? GET THE BIG VEGAN BURGER oh my god so good This place is a little tough to find but that makes it extra special. We went in the early evening and enjoyed the soothing sounds of live music played by a local hipster acoustic guitarist while sitting amongst the greenery of the quaint garden complete with bird bath and lighted palm trees. Try the coconut mojito, it's excellent! And reasonable price too. They bring over some mint - cucumber sauce in a shot glass. I wasn't sure what it was for as its way too creamy to drink, then after eating a slice of fresh jalapeño from my wife's mushroom sashimi, I quickly realized it's too cool off your mouth! I had the glorious tasty treat which is known as the big vegan burger. Two giant portobello mushrooms sandwich in a succulent lentil burger with a tour of the world for your taste buds in each amazingly succulent bite! I mean, seriously was not expecting it to taste so good. The Carmelized onions and guac help make it even better. It's messy, so use the fork and knife. Coming back for more this week!

While traveling sometimes you feel like a refreshing meal is all you need - this is the place for you! The food was light, tasty, and at a good price. Ideally, they would also have different kinds of bread. (It was good bread, but we were wishing for something different!) This restaurant is also conveniently by the Marina Fiesta resort!

Such a great vegan find! If you are vegan in Cabo, this is your best stop! It has a nice outside seating area. Everyone was extremely nice! So nice not having to worry if the food would be vegan. I would give this place 10 stars. And I hope they keep growing and open more locations!

Great when open. This is the third time we've come during posted hours and it hasn't been open. Maybe need to update open hours on Yelp?

Pan di Bacco - Truffle Pasta ($30)

This was delicious, home-made and fresh pasta. It was authentic Italian and the perfect meal for us…read morearriving late and jet-lagged with two toddlers. The pizzas were wood fired and the dough was so chewy and airy. The pasta was al dente and the shrimp was so good. The kids loved the cookies too! A short 10 min taxi from the Westin. It is inside the El Merkado food hall so the ambiance is multiple stands of different concepts/styles of cuisine and then tables spread out for seating. Would definitely return!

First, I would like to say if you are already hungry, DO NOT come here! The wait staff are very…read morekind and friendly but not attentive at all... It is an extremely small space and they'll pass you multiple times without looking your way so you can call them over. We waited almost 15 minutes before ordering then didn't get our drinks for another 15 minutes (bottled water!!?). My boyfriend ended up going to the counter, which was about 12 feet away from us, and asking for it himself. It took about another 10 minutes before our carpaccio came and I was extremely hangry (sorry @ bf). However, after taking my initial bite, I was ALL SMILES! One of the best carpaccio plates I've ever had in my life. I ate most of it (thanks @ bf). Still, we were more than halfway done with the plate before our pastas came. I got the short rib rigatoni -- the short rib was decent but there were maybe 4 chunks in the entire thing (not huge chunks either) and the rigatoni was a level above al dente. I was not a fan, so bf and I switched pastas. The shrimp scampi fettuccini was OK -- there was actually a good amount of shrimp in it! The pasta was also OK, it just didn't feel like any of the sauce absorbed into it. Pasta was definitely on the thicker side. Overall, would not return. Definitely not worth the price. Might have given 1-2 stars if not for the saving grace: carpaccio. Actually, I guess I would return solely for the carpaccio as both my app and main dish. Highly recommend stopping in for that dish as a mid-day snack or what have you.
