Maria Corona

We have eaten in and around Cabo for more than 25 years. It was a delight to find some place new that we would go back to. Fresh made quac table side was great. As well as the Poblano cream soup. All good tasted fresh and home made! Loved it !

If you’re debating about where to eat dinner tonight, which may be why you’re on Unilocal,you shouldn’t debate any longer and go to Maria Corona. Holy cow! From the magical courtyard to the live music (plays from 6:30−9ish), the environment was spot on. The food was incredible. We started with the guacamole, which I highly recommend. Then, I ordered vegetarian fajitas and it was enough to feed an entire table and it was delicious. My husband ordered Chicken Mole and said it was on his top 10-best-things-he’s-ever-eaten-of-all-time. Finally, the service was really great as well– Rodolfo was our server and was very attentive and made great recommendations.

Great service and food. Live music was very nice and not overwhelming. Great place for a slightly nicer night out.

Our favorite in Cabo for many reasons. While the place is located a bit off the beaten path, the ambiance is great. Always a live Mexican band with area to dance, open air seating, and beautiful lights hung in the trees. Staff is excellent and we have always had great service. Have tried almost everything on the menu and you cannot go wrong with anything you order. Shrimp Diablo is spice and flavors are addicting. You have to have table side Guacamole and/​or queso. Margaritas are unique and flavorful. For dessert have the Mexican coffee but make sure it is dark. Not only does it taste amazing but the show in how they prepare it is worth the wait. Best Mexican restaurant in all Cabo by far!!!

I have been here twice now, the first time being a few years ago. The food, drinks, and service were all absolutely fantastic. I highly recommend this restaurant for not only all I mentioned above, but a wonderful atmosphere as well.

This place is the best restaurant in Cabo! It has a beautiful outdoor patio, great service, and wonderful food and drinks. We have been 4 times now and the lunch and dinner are both amazing. The place was very peaceful and relaxing during lunch and then for dinner it was very lively live music and lots of pretty outdoor lights. They just added additional seating and a big outdoor bar under a pretty tree. They did such a great job on the ambiance both indoors and outdoors.
The time before last we came in between lunch and dinner and since it wasn’t a peak time our waiter Miguel, who provided exceptional service, actually let us pop back in the kitchen and had one of the chefs teach us how to press and cook tortillas! We got to eat the delicious tortillas we made with the kitchen staff. It really made our trip!
I recommend this to anyone who wants a great meal with terrific ambiance!

We visit this restaurant every year and have always had a good experience with good service and good food. This year they have expanded their dining area outside, taking over the previous parking area. The downside, their kitchen can no longer handle the volume. Wait time was terrible and the Waiter’s spend more time apologizing than doing their jobs. I don’t mind waiting if other details with service is prompt, or at least ask if we need anything while waiting. When the food arrived, three out of four dishes were good. Unfortunately the catch of the day was so under cooked that the waiter returned it to the kitchen, not us. Again we had to wait. When it arrived… they forgot to season the fish, very bland. I suggest the earliest possible dinner reservations until they complete their kitchen expansion.

Off the beaten path. Nice atmosphere and staff. Food was over cooked and the shrimp was tough. We had a group of six people and only one was satisfied with the meal.

We’ve been coming to CABO for about six years now and Maria Corona’s NEVER disappoints us. The pork dishes are amazing, my grilled shrimp was cooked perfectly and the flan was spectacular (I usually am not a fan of flan). And lest I forget, the dessert coffee is not only delicious but the waiters put on a flambé show with it.

We have a home in Cabo and eat here often. The pork yacateco is more than a normal human can eat, but delicious.

Just excellent! Authentic taste, outstanding service at all times. Relaxed atmosphere.
Their mole poblano and Pozole are just amazing.
Life music, nice environment, and servers that will make sure all your food expectations are met. Cab service will be right at the door and ready to head to your next activity at Cabo.
Highly recommended!
Muchas gracias Adrian Por tu excelente servicio!

I can’t give it a 3 star but it’s not a 5 star for me … So let’s say 4. good environment authentic music authentic food. Prices maybe a little high considering we were sent there Bc it’s supposed to be better and cheaper than the likes of Edith’s. I ordered the Maria corona platter Bc I couldn’t decide. My first time trying mole sauce and it was really good. We were trying to check out Maria Jimenez but it was closed so we wondered over the next street and came here. I would def go back and try other items on the menu mmmmmmm

We came here for dinner after we spoke with two lovely ladies on the beach who said it was their favorite restaurant in Cabo. We had a lovely, delicious dinner. They were able to seat our party of 12 without a reservation and soon after we were seated, the outdoor area of the restaurant filled up.
We ordered:
— Maria Corona cheese fondue– delicious! The best part of the fondue was when the remainder of the cheese crisped up in the molcajete. Who doesn’t love crispy cheese?!
— Mexico City style beef jerky– my 10yo son ordered this and said it was fantastic (should’ve swiped a bite!)
— whole red snapper– in my opinion, best dish here and unfortunately, I wasn’t the one who ordered it. It had a caper flavor and was so delicious.
— Mayan style pork pibil– great flavor and tender pork
— three tacos: huitelacoche, pastor and sautéed squash blossoms– the only dish which was not so good and the reason why Maria Corona was docked one star. The tacos lacked flavor and did not come with accompaniments like salsa, cilantro, etc. I used the salsa that came with cheese fondue. The huitelacoche was sweet which was such a disappointment since I always look forward to eating huitelacoche tacos when in Mexico.
We will definitely come back for a visit the next time we are in Cabo so I can get that snapper.

The food was pretty good, but I feel like I could have gotten the same in LA. I do remember the mole being very good, as was the queso fundido. So much cheese! And the chips and salsa were really delish. I had a few vegetarian tacos — huitlacoche, squash blossoms and mushrooms. I think the mushrooms were the best, but none rocked my socks. I think people very much enjoyed the shrimp and the fish, none of which I tried.
It was still a really enjoyable meal — our table of ten sat outside, sweltering, but was provided hand fans so we could fan ourselves (the heat coming off the molcajetes containing the queso fundido was not helping). The mariachi band was awesome and the staff was super attentive.

A must go simply just for the Fondue and the guacamole! We didn’t have a full meal but was hungry for a snack so we stopped by since someone from our resort recommended it.
The guacamole was probably one of the best table side guacamole I’ve every had. Just the perfect amount of kick and acidic with the richness of the avocado.
The fondue was amazing! The gooey hot cheese with the pork chorizo and mushrooms was a perfect mixed. We could have had one each it was that good.
A must go!

Free wifi available. This place is very quaint, great ambiance. The food is reasonable priced, maybe they have a different menu pricing during peak season, but I don’t think $$$ is accurate for what you are getting. You can call to make reservations but we went on an off night and was able to be seated with no problems. Even though they close at 10, looks like you can still squeeze in and get great service. I love this place

My cousins and I went here on the recommendation of our car service driver Jesus of VictorCaboTours. We made reservations for 13, when we arrived everything was set and ready for us. I ordered the Maria Corona Queso Fundido, the server prepped it table side. Then I ordered the carnitas… Wow was it awesome… Then my wife ordered the Carne Asada, it was the best I’ve ever had! (I stole a piece or two from her plate) My cousin ordered the bacon wrapped shrimp in a white wine cheese sauce… Again to die for… Everyone’s food was out if this world.
If your ever in Cabo San Lucas, you MUST stop by and try this place! It’s a must if you love great authentic Mexican food.

Maria Corona was great. Had reservations at 7pm for the patio and were promptly seated. Service was great, food was even better, and while it was a bit pricey, it was worth it. They had a great mariachi band playing in a corner (not pressuring individual tables). Best chicken mole I’ve ever had. She had enchiladas covered in mole sauce and it was the best she’d ever had. Guacamole prepared table-​side was also delicious. Great margarita recommendations as well. At one point there was a man dressed up in one of those Mayan Aztec type outfits going from table to table taking pictures with tourists which I thought was a bit gimmicky but I’m sure other people love it. We would definitely come back for the mole!

This place is amazing! They have very good Mexican food and they have the absolute best tacos! They make guacamole right in front of you and it is the best I have ever had! They have amazing service and the staff is always on top of refills on chips and drinks! Definitely worth a try!

Highly recommended!
Have been probably 5 times now over past couple years, before Unilocal.
Always love it and drive down from San Jose just to eat here. Today the pork shank was out of this worldly, no joke.
Mole exceptional and everything else great like atmosphere, service, selection, wine list, everything.
Private parking lot, excellent English speaking smart servers and yes you have to spend a little. But you know what? You get more than you can imagine by spending a little more, totally first class and still loving it!
