    Mushroom tacos, soy chorizo taco
    Anna B.

    Flavorful vegan tacos - especially soy and mushroom. Be prepared to be patient as they are making everything from scratch. Chilaquiles were ok - too thick for our liking and not soaked enough. Banana smoothie was great! Loved having so many vegan options to choose from and the cute interiors.

    This is the cutest place ever!! We were welcomed with such great hospitality. It is owned by husband and wife and they brought us lots of complimentary starters made by her and the food was designed to perfection. Everything was so fresh and tasted so good. They seem like such a passionate couple and have such a cool story for the restaurant. Overall amazing experience!!!

    Tropical Kitchen is a little hidden gem in old Cabo. This family run, boho vegan café takes pride in thier food - all sauces and dressings and plant based milks are all made in house with love. What stood out was not only the kind service but the complimentary Hibiscus Flower Pastor and is not to missed. Seriously this topping is crack and can be added to any item on thier menu. I told the owner he should sell it in a tub because it's that good. I opted for the Xcacrel Acai Smothie Bowl and my hubby had the Monte Cristo. You can taste and see the love they put into thier creations. With were satisfying and the owner even offered additional seed toppings because I devoured what I had in my bowl. If you're looking for a healthy, laid back, boho vibe cafe away from the hustle and bustle of Cabo, make the short trek inward to TC. This place is sure not to be missed. Oh and the music playing was .

    Charming, visually lovely vegan spot in Cabo Great vegan spot in Cabo, absolutely adored the ambiance of the restaurant, they had a lovely eclectic selection to choose from, the food was imaginary, so aesthetically appealing and immensely flavorful.

    The vibrant interior atmosphere of the restaurant.

    This is hands down a hidden gem in downtown Cabo San Lucas! I was searching for a unique restaurant on Yelp and this one quickly caught my attention by their vibrant atmosphere and unique foods. The atmosphere was warm and inviting, and I loved the murals, plants, and tropical bird mobiles decorating the walls and ceilings. The cook/owner of the restaurant is a really friendly guy and we had great conversations about his family and the concept of the restaurant. The food is purely vegetarian and vegan, now I'm a carnivore but I still loved all of it! One of the things that stood out to me was how they provide authentic Mexican food with healthy and eye-catching detail. I was not disappointed and will go there anytime I'm in Cabo!

    My favorite place on earth. Tropical Kitchen is a hidden gem in Cabo San Lucas. You'll find this fruity oasis when you escape the crowds and explore deeper into the city. I've visited the Tropical Kitchen twice now - once with my brother and another with my parents. Both visits left us as lifelong supporters of this concept. It's hard not to be when the business is ran by the sweetest husband and wife duo - #couplegoals. Every item on their menu is handcrafted and made fresh to order. I've tried both their acai bowls and smoothies and each left me wanting more. The presentation is also top notch! You won't find a more aesthetic menu item in all of Cabo. The açaí bowls are served on hand painted platters and the smoothies come with their own tiki hut. While the Tropical Kitchen specializes in smoothies and acai bowls, they recently launched additional menu items like burritos, tortas, and chilaquiles. I'm obsessed with this place and wouldn't make a trip to Cabo without at least one to two visits!

    Cute place! We came by earlier today and the food presentation was so beautiful. The smoothie was so refreshing and not too sweet at all! It was refreshing and it had nice bits of chunks of fruits to it. There were also coconuts and chia seeds. We also had cold brew frappe it was very delicious and refreshing! My boyfriend ordered this. Additionally we ordered the green chiqualies and the xcalel açaí bowl. We really liked the chiqualies but the açaí bowl was a bit sour! It tasted healthy tho :-) next time we're around we would try the smoothie bowl.

    Amazing breakfast and service! One of my best meals in Cabo! Beautiful plates and interesting condiments

    Tropical Waffles

    Loved this place so much we went here twice on our trip to Cabo! The interior is gorgeous and inviting to local birds. We had excellent service from the owners both times we went and the food was incredible. I highly recommend ordering anything with the hibiscus "al pastor" (they bring out a bit for you to try with chips when you arrive). It was so delicious I'm going to attempt to recreate it at home! I also ordered the Tropical Waffles on our second visit to which I also highly recommend (my boyfriend says they were the best waffles he's ever had)! We had people in our group that were vegan, vegetarian, gluten free, and had no dietary restrictions, and everyone was so satisfied with their meal. Can't recommend this place enough!

    My friends and I were in Cabo for four days and after stumbling upon this hidden gem, we visited three times. It's clear the owners (Jazmin and Allan) are passionate about their dream -- they have made Tropical Kitchen a warm, inviting place, with tons of healthy vegan options. They welcomed us into their restaurants as if it was their own home and I loved getting to know them both. They generously shared their history, ambitions, and love for cooking -- which is all based in the chef/owners hometown in Mexico. Everything we had on the menu was delicious (including fresh fruit smoothies) and had a beautiful presentation. I was so happy to be able to take home a bottle of their traditional chile de arbol salsa for myself! We also went to their newer venture (Selva Taqueria), which is 2 blocks away, and enjoyed a lovely taco dinner and agua fresca. I am already excited to visit them on my next trip to Cabo to see their dreams and menus grow!

    Sooo fun inside

    Obsessed with tropical kitchen...wish I could clone this cafe for my hometown! We were in Cabo for 4 days and came here 3 days in a row. The food and smoothies are crafted with love and the owners are passionate about their business. Love the complimentary chip and dip, huevos rancheros, the BEANS omg, and the QUETZAL smoothie (packed with phenomenal greens).

    the freshest açaí bowl I've ever had.  Mexican coffee with cinnamon.

I stumbled across this place on my month long Cabo vacation and by far this was my favorite 'hole in the wall'. The place is run by a young Mexican chef Cynthia and her food is magic! She weaves modern presentations with 'grandmas recipes' to create beautiful food! The first time I visited there was just one other patron there at the time and I sat down at the 'family-style' table they had near him. I was fixated on the dishes he was eating... let's just say he was happy-happy Cynthia's boyfriend (Carlos I think) greeted me and we began to chat; he was a DJ and seafood chef that had recently decided to move back to Cabo and help Cynthia make her magic. We chatted a bit about Cabo, the local restaurant scene, tourist scene, urban tourism, and music... basically, I felt as if I was visiting a friend at his restaurant getting the low-down of the area. After a while, it was time to eat and I asked Carlos to pick a few things for me.... I wasn't disappointed!!! (By this time ts was just Cynthia and Carlos and I) First, there was the 7 hande made hot sauces .... the ones with the nuts are to die for... Cynthia explained that most of the sauces were from the part of Mexic she grew up in, but that a few of the others where with peppers from where Carlos grew up. Then Cynthia began to bring me several small dishes (that I hadn't even ordered...) each one was more amazing than the next (see photos) I guess I bugged Cynthia so much that when I got up to leave she brought me a few little to-go containers with some of the dried peppers she used to make here salsa's with instructions how to make them on my own... as well as a recommendation and direction to the local spice market for a bigger variety of spices. If you want to visit a unique, urban, foodie experience this is place is a must!!!

It was authentic, unique, and incredibly delicious. The al pastor taco was packed with flavor, and the cheese-crusted tortilla topped with al pastor was next-level amazing.

We were recommended this place by our hotel (ME Hotel), so we came in with high expectations.

The place itself does not have a high-end vibe or atmosphere, so the pricing just didn't match the experience at all. The service was nice, I'll give them that, but the food did not justify the cost. I've had way better tacos for way less. And trust me, I've had a lot of tacos in my lifetime. It honestly feels like this place is taking advantage of tourists with these prices.
