About this restaurant

  • Romantic
  • Great for scenic views
  • Great for outdoor dining
Cocina del Mar restaurant, is perched atop striking cliffs overlooking the ocean and will take you on a culinary journey through the Sea of Cortez and Cabo’s verdant farms. Enter a buzzing lantern-lit bar and lounge that invites you to linger over hand-crafted cocktails before sauntering down to dinner above a cascade of oceanfront terraces kissed by white-capped waves. An outdoor exhibition kitchen is alive with energy, a perfect spot to engage with chefs and explore bites of coastal Baja cuisine and regionally inspired cocktails beside a glowing wood fired oven.

    Most beautiful views with amazing service. Christian was the best server and curated the most magical night for me and my boyfriend’s anniversary. From the moment you walk in you are greeted by the friendly staff. The food was delicious as well as 360 views of the ocean. Can’t say a bad thing about this place!!!! 10/10

    we loved everything about the restaurant and the food was superb. I would just recommend some heat lamps or having blankets readily available.

    Lobster tacos and the gnocchi was absolutely fantastic. Service was 5 star. Couldn’t have had a better experience. We will certainly be back.

    Beautiful dining experience at Cocina Del Mar! Good portions and everything was flavorful! Drinks were beautifully curated, and don’t skip on dessert! Pricey but the ambiance, food and service is definitely worth the splurge.

    A truly exceptional dining experience. Service, food quality and ambiance added up to a very memorable experience. It’s worth noting that on Wednesdays, there is a fireworks experience that was very high end. What a delight! Another thing that was appreciated is there was no pressure to give a second tip on top of the bill (service already included), which happens at some other, sleazier places.
