We did not have a reservation for a Friday night but we did use the honeymoon angle and they lead us right in. The place is huge, the service prompt and polite. The food was good, not bad but definitely not great. I had the mole, decent, and my friend had the catch of the day in a red chili sauce, it was divine. Unfortunately, you could taste the oil/lard in the handmade tortillas and the ceviche was a bit warm, which made me nervous.

Our favorite restaurant in Cabo. We went twice in only 4 nights! With our many trips to Mexico, this was some of the finest local cuisine we have tasted.

The menu of Mexican specialties is all you need to see. I generally don't order a Mole. I know it's the greatest Mexican dish in the world (!!!!), but I usually find the flavor so deep as to almost be suffocating.

But the "Manchamanteles" sounded great and tasted even better—Mole, pork, chicken and fruit (!!!!!). It was lighter than most moles I've had, but no less flavorful (if that makes any sense).

My wife got an astonishing fresh Sea Bass one night, and a whole local lobster the second night (yes, we went twice!). On the second visit, I ordered an old stand-by that usually demonstrates the skill of the chef - Steak Tampiquena (skirt steak with Mexican trimmings). Also delicious!

Strolling mariachi's plus a sketch artists, and VERY eclectic furnishings make Mi Case the place YOU MUST TRY in Cabo San Lucas.

Oh, here's the Mexican speciality section of their menu:

El Manchamanteles de Morelia—Famous mole of chile guajillo & chile ancho with chicken & pork and lots fruit. Very tasty!

El Mole Poblano - Masterpiece of Mexican cuisine! Festful dish of chicken in a rich dark mole sauce of peppers, seed 7 spices ( approx. 35 ingredients) A feast for your palate!

El Chile en Nogada -A specialty dish to celebrate independence day. Poblano pepper stuffed with sauteed meats, served with a fresh walnut cream sauce. One Mexico's finest

La Cochinita Pibil -Famous dish from Yucatan. Shredded pork oven roasted in achiote served with spicy marinated red onions, called (Xnipec).

Las Carnitas de Michoacan -Succulent oven roasted pork, served with special beans, guacamole, cilantro, & onions

Los Tamales Bandera - Steamed tamales in colors of the flag.. Red: Filled with chicken in mole, green: shredded pork with tomatillo sauce; white: cheese & poblano strips

This is a great restaurant in the town of Cabo San Lucas. When you walk inside and look up, you will notice immediately that there is no roof. . . instead, you dine underneath the stars. There is a charming mariachi band that will serenade you if you like or you can simply enjoy the music from afar.

We had the sopas for our appetizer; for entrees, I had enchiladas verde and he had chicken with mole sauce. All were great. If you want authentic Mexican fare in a wonderful atmosphere, this is your place.

The best restaurant in Cabo. We went twice in one week. The best steak I ever had. It is a must while in Cabo. Outdoors not air-conditioned.

The atmosphere was authentic Mexican. Good service and great food. I had grilled red snapper, while my daughter had chicken tacos. Don't forget the flan for dessert!
