Tequila's Sunrise
If you can handle the Eagles barrage (you're almost guaranteed to hear Hotel California at least twice while you're here), pop into the restaurant that claims to be the original restaurant that was in Hotel California. Whether you buy it not, it's a fun place, and every inch of just about everything in the place is covered in permanent marker, business cards and dollar bills.
The menu features everything from surf-and-turf platters to garlic shrimp, salads and good ol' Mexican food. If you'd rather taste premium tequilas, try the tequila bar.

Giggling Dolphin
Excellent, reasonably priced fish dishes include mouth-watering items like chile relleno de queso y camarón (green chili stuffed with cheese and shrimp) and other takes on traditional Mexican seafood dishes. With tablecloths, Mexican music and big wooden chairs, it can be romantic or casual, depending on your mood.

O Mole Mío
With wrought-iron furniture, Mayan fertility figures adorning the walls and colorful lanterns for light, the décor is as creative as the food. Even standards like enchiladas and tamales are presented with a whole new twist. The seafood is outstanding. Lobster (around US$30) is the priciest thing on the menu.

Las Fuentes
Las Fuentes serves excellent Mexican dishes (the chicken with mole sauce is exceptional) and seafood specialties in a shady patio among colorful bougainvilleas and three refreshing fountains. Shrimp plates exceed the average prices, topping out around around US$20.

Los Adobes
For some seriously good alta cocina (haute cuisine) try this upscale but casual restaurant. Dishes include mole poblano (a chili sauce flavored with chocolate and spices), Cornish game hen in 'Jamaica sauce' and several mouth-watering seafood dishes.

Mariscos Bahía
Since its opening in 1970 Mariscos Bahía has become a venerated classic. The halibut came out overcooked during our last visit, but the camarones al mojo de ajo (garlic shrimp), the sidewalk terrace and the delicious margaritas made up for it.

The Shrimp Factory
Casual and popular, the Shrimp Factory dishes out boiled or fried shrimp and lobster by the kilo or half-kilo. The lobster's good, but the shrimp is where it's really at. A kilo of the latter serves two to three with rice, beans and tortillas included.

Mariscos Mocambo
Touristy but renowned for its large portions of fresh fish and shellfish, Mariscos Mocambo is just the place for casual atmosphere and reasonably priced seafood. It's festive without pandering to the bring-out-the-sombreros-and-tequila crowd. Great.

Jazmín's
Jazmín's serves Mexican, seafood and vegetarian meals in a peaceful setting with unobtrusive service and, incongruously, a paperback book exchange. Breakfasts are excellent. Unfortunately, prices have recently climbed.

El Pescador
The menu at this modest and friendly eatery is an oceanic treasure trove: shrimp, fish, oysters, snails, crab, octopus - you name it, it's served here. It's casual and prices are good.

La Palapa The Gus
This longtime Cabo favorite draws big crowds for its good-value seafood dinners. Breakfasts are tasty, though prices have steepened just enough to make it borderline in value.

Mariscos El Cheff
This eclectic, eight-table mom-and-pop joint is revered for its seafood. Fish nets, dangling abalone shells and red tablecloths complete the scene. Great little place.

La Mar y Peña
