Tucked into the cliffs of The Waldorf Astoria Los Cabos Pedregal and stocked daily with bounty from local fishermen, El Farallon is the most sought after dinner location in Los Cabos. Meaning “a rock that comes out of the ocean”, El Farallon has become a hallmark of exquisite dining at our luxury resort. Situated overlooking The Pacific Ocean, where Chef Gustavo Pinet sets only the best selection of local catch on mounds of shaved ice. Our fish experts will guide your selection with an old-fashioned scale that weights each choice.
Carved out of the rock appears The Champagne Terrace with a selection of over 15 different champagnes ranging from Blanc de Blancs to Rose to Vintage Champagnes. All you and your guests need to do is decide how many and what measure of each one you want. Jhonatan Adame, our Wine Manager, and his team will be able to guide you through the process as well as help you learn about the champagne with a selection of imported cheeses and artisan salts. /

    The location is unbeatable. The prices are high, yes, which would be totally fine if the food was amazing. While I definitely didn’t think the food was poor, none of the dishes wowed me. The focaccia was a bit bland and dry, the soup lacked seasoning, and the snapper was over cooked with a weird curry sauce that distracted. The service was impeccable but don’t think the food lived up to the hype.

    Lobster was way overdone. Needed a steak knife to cut through chunks. First time we ate there was amazing. Less so on the second. Perfect service team and ambiance. Food was mediocre.

    Love this atmosphere and food - one of the best restaurants I have ever been to. So cool being built on the side of the mountain. The First time we went in the month of November, we saw the sunset and moon. Lovely music during dinner. A must to go to.

    The fish was excellent... best red snapper I've ever had. They emphasize the taste of the fish, and it's perfectly prepared. The appetizers and side dishes were average. The dessert was decent. The fish, the view, and the ambiance were top tier. I'm glad I went, but I don't think it's worth a return visit.

    This was probably our 15th meal at el Farallon and historically it’s been fabulous. This last week the food was less flavorful, overly salty and the restaurant was much more crowded, as more tables have been placed. We will certainly give it another go in November, hoping this was an outlier.

    El Farallon is absolutely beautiful restaurant with a wonderful ocean view, spectacular ambiance and outstanding service. The food was very good but not great and the prices are very expensive. We were glad we tried it but given the overall value we will not likely come back in the near future.

    I have never regretted a dining decision like I regret this one. The food was TERRIBLE, every single thing they brought was either meh, or so bad we couldn't eat it. SOOOO over priced for sub par food. Even the roasted potatoes were so gross none of us could eat them. The shrimp were tough and overcooked, the fish was bland and dry. The ambiance is amazing, too bad it wasn't enough. The food is waaaay over priced. I don't mind paying 5 star prices if the taste and quality is also 5 star, but honestly, I've had better food at Taco Bell. Do yourself a favor, skip this big waste of money!!

    While the setting is extraordinary, the food is only above average and the prices are very high. The wine prices are absurdly expensive and corkage is $50 a bottle. While I love the setting, I was disappointed in the overall dinner and expected more.

    Overall this place is beautifully designed. We had a late evening dining so it was chilly loved that they give you blankets. The food was mediocre. The amberjack my partner picked at seemed very undercooked and he didn’t like his sides. I had the shrimp which was good but that was about it. I think this place just really depends on your taste, don’t choose just for the views. The drinks were good. It was average to me but can still be an experience for others.

    I would absolutely not recommend dining here, it is completely overpriced for what it is. The ambience is beautiful and the view is stunning but that’s about where the good experience ends. It took us 30 minutes to be seated for a reservation we made months in advance and the food was genuinely just not well cooked. There were blood lines in all of our fish filets and bones in some of the appetizer. For this price point not being able to serve a simple piece of fish cooked well is completely absurd. This was our last night in Cabo and by far the worst meal of our four nights. They did have a great dessert and the staff were attentive, but don’t waste your money dining here.
