About

Shaka's sits right on Cerritos Beach, between Todos Santos and Pescadero, where the highway curves toward the Pacific. It's a wood-built cantina with open sides and a beachfront vibe — you're close enough to hear the waves between courses. The 4.8 rating over 140 reviews holds across the board: food, value, and especially service all clock in well above average. The menu runs international, which here means grilled fish, tacos, bowls, and a handful of other dishes built around what's fresh. Mid-range pricing, but the value score suggests they're landing portions and quality in the right spot. It's kid-friendly, so families show up alongside surfers coming off the break. You don't need a reservation, but Cerritos draws crowds on weekends, so timing matters if you want a table with a view. Cerritos is one of the better surf beaches on the Pacific side, and Shaka's is the obvious stop after a session or between beach walks.

Baja Beans Cafe

Baja Beans Cafe sits on Highway 19 just outside El Pescadero, a few minutes south of Todos Santos. It's a casual breakfast-and-lunch spot pulling 385 reviews at 4.5 stars, with the atmosphere rating (4.7) running higher than the food or service — which tells you something about the outdoor seating and the palapa vibe. The menu bounces between American cafe standards and Mexican plates, with gluten-free options marked. Families show up, surfers show up, people working laptops show up. The value score sits at 4.1, so you're paying a bit more than you would at a local taco stand, but mid-range pricing in this area still means reasonable. No reservations, which is typical for the format — you order at the counter, grab a table, and wait for your number. It's a reliable stop if you're driving the coastal loop and need more than gas-station coffee.

Tequila’s Sunrise Bar & Grill

Tequila's Sunrise sits on Calle Benito Juarez in the center of Todos Santos, serving Mexican and American plates in a casual setup that works for families. The food rating edges above the overall score, and service runs consistently high across nearly a thousand reviews, which suggests the kitchen and staff have the rhythm down. The menu covers both sides of the border without trying to be fancy about it—tacos, burgers, grilled fish, the usual suspects done well enough that people come back. Mid-range pricing and a 4.3 value rating mean you're getting what you pay for without surprises on the check. The vibe is straightforward: walk in, order, eat, leave happy. It's the kind of place that handles kids without making a thing of it, and since Todos Santos doesn't have wall-to-wall dining options, having a reliable spot that doesn't require a reservation or a dress code matters. If you're in town and hungry, it works.

Art and Beer

Art and Beer is in Todos Santos, an hour north of Cabo San Lucas on the Pacific side. The international menu covers a lot of ground, but the 3.5 food score and 3.0 value score suggest it's more about the setting than the kitchen — the atmosphere rating is the only one breaking 3.5. Expect casual vibes and a bar program that probably gets more attention than the plates. It's kid-friendly and takes walk-ins, so it works as a low-commitment stop if you're passing through town. The numbers tell you what to expect: middling service, decent enough beer selection, and a crowd that's there for the hang more than the meal. If you're hunting for Todos Santos' best food, keep looking. If you want a patio beer and something to eat without a fuss, this does the job.

Osprey San Pedrito

Osprey San Pedrito sits on the Pacific coast south of Todos Santos, well outside the resort corridor noise. With a 4.9 overall rating from a small pool of reviews, it's tracking high marks across rooms, cleanliness, and location—people who find it tend to like it. The sleep quality rating trails slightly at 4.3, which might reflect surf noise or firm beds, but the value score at 4.8 suggests guests aren't complaining about the trade-off. This is Pacific Side surf territory, so expect wind, waves, and a different rhythm than the calmer Sea of Cortez beaches. The service rating of 4.7 and the small review count point to a more intimate operation, not a staffed-up resort machine. If you're looking for a quiet base near Todos Santos without staying in town, and you don't need a lot of hand-holding, it works. Just confirm what's actually on-site before you book—this stretch of coast doesn't have much within walking distance.

La Casita Tapas & Wine Bar

La Casita Tapas & Wine Bar is a casual spot in the central zone of Todos Santos, and it's been quietly collecting fans for years — 616 reviews at 4.5 stars tells you it's consistent. The food and service both score 4.7, which is unusually high for a mid-range place, and the tapas format means you can graze through a half-dozen plates without committing to one entrée. The menu skews international, so you're not locked into one style, and the wine list gets mentioned enough in reviews to suggest they care about pairings. It's kid-friendly, which is rare in the tapas category, so families can actually use it without feeling like they're crashing a date night. No reservations required — walk-ins work fine most nights. Value scores well, which tracks for the price tier, and the atmosphere rating suggests it's comfortable without trying too hard. If you're in Todos Santos and want something more flexible than a full sit-down meal, this handles the job.

Rumi Garden

Rumi Garden is a courtyard spot in downtown Todos Santos serving international dishes in a laid-back setting that pulls high marks across the board. The 4.8 scores for atmosphere and service aren't surprising once you sit down—tables are scattered under trees and strung lights, and the staff moves quickly without hovering. Food and value both land at 4.6 and above, which is solid for a mid-range kitchen turning out a rotating menu that isn't locked to one cuisine. It's casual enough for kids and doesn't require a reservation, so it works as a fallback when the sit-down places closer to the plaza are full. Todos Santos runs quieter than the cape corridor, and Rumi fits that rhythm—good cooking, no pretense, consistent enough that locals and visitors both show up. If you're staying in town for more than a night, you'll probably end up here.

Todos Santos

El Faro Beach Club & Spa

El Faro sits right on the beach in Todos Santos, which means you can eat lunch with your feet in the sand and the Pacific rolling in fifty yards away. The atmosphere rating—4.8—makes sense once you see the setup: open-air palapas, lounge chairs, a small spa tucked behind the restaurant if you want a massage between courses. The food scores slightly higher than you'd expect for a beach club, and the international menu keeps things flexible if you're traveling with kids or picky eaters. Service moves at beach pace, which is either perfect or frustrating depending on your mood. The value rating suggests pricing is reasonable for what you get, though mid-range here still means you're paying for the location as much as the plate. No reservation required, but weekend afternoons can fill up with day-trippers from Cabo. If you're spending the day in Todos Santos and want an actual beach break with food that doesn't feel like an afterthought, it works.
