Dine at El Squid Roe

By day, El Squid Roe is a full sit-down restaurant in the heart of downtown Cabo San Lucas — right on the Marina at Blvd. Lázaro Cárdenas 1112. Long before it becomes Cabo's most famous party, it's where locals and travelers come for breakfast, lunch, and dinner.

If you're searching for where to eat in downtown Cabo, this is one of the most recognizable addresses on the Marina. The kitchen runs from 9am to 10pm, serving fresh Cabo seafood, USDA prime steaks, made-to-order tacos, ceviche, burgers, and pasta. Family-friendly tables fill the patio under the sun, and the energy builds as the afternoon turns into evening.

Three floors of open-air dining overlook the boats and the boardwalk. Come hungry, stay for a Billyxology margarita, and watch El Squid Roe transform from a relaxed Cabo San Lucas marina restaurant into the legendary nightclub that put it on the map.

Cabo seafood cured in lime with tomato, onion, and cilantro — bright, citrusy, and made for sharing on the patio.

Squid Roe Burgers

Juicy hand-pressed burgers piled high — the kind of lunch that fuels an afternoon on the Marina.

Family-Friendly by Day, Party by Night

During the day, El Squid Roe is a relaxed, family-friendly Cabo San Lucas restaurant where kids are welcome and the patio is bright and open. Bring the whole table for lunch on the Marina.
