Thanks Molly, I know most of those places. I would also suggest a very hidden spot in Cabo called “Tacos Marissa”, it is located no more than 5 minutes from the main street, it is not fancy at all, but believe me, they are great, they have theses wonderful grilled steak orders (for 2 or 3 people) or you may order by the taco, with lots of different sauces to pick from.
