Romeo y Julieta

One September 2026 reviewer said they'd been coming for twenty years, which tells you what Romeo y Julieta is: a long-time fixture of Cabo San Lucas dining. It sits where Boulevard Paseo de la Marina meets the road up into Pedregal, a 13-minute walk from Villa 1 along the marina. The building is hacienda-style, with candlelit rooms and courtyards, and a recent remodel has freshened it up.

Dishes come from several regions of Italy. The restaurant lists homemade fresh pasta, antipasto, wood-fired pizza, cioppino, lasagna, Alfredo, pesto and a burrata starter, plus gelato in flavors such as pistachio and strawberry. The Caesar salad made at the table is the tradition here. Reviewers in 2026 also order chicken parmigiana, gnocchi and fettuccine, and finish with a Mexican coffee.

It opens at 4 PM Monday to Saturday and in the mid-afternoon on Sundays, closing at 11 PM (10 PM on Sundays). Book through the restaurant's website or OpenTable, particularly on weekends in high season when couples fill the courtyard tables. The atmosphere works for date nights and for families with older kids who like pasta and pizza.

Honestly, it's not cheap for pasta, and one recent reviewer thought prices had crept up while a portion shrank. But the setting is lovely, the service is professional, and it's a safe pick when you have mixed tastes around the table. Walk there along the marina at sunset, and afterwards stroll back past the boats. Celebrating? Say so when you book; this room sees a lot of anniversaries. For a more casual Italian night, La Dolce and Invita are ten minutes away downtown, and taxis are easy to find on the marina road if you'd rather not walk home.
