点评:We were vacationing in Cabo and wanted to meet a local friend out for dinner. He suggested an off-the-beaten-path local favorite Higos y Olivios (Figs and Olives). It turned out to be a great recommendation.
At first glance, the entrance off a secondary road seemed a bit rustic, but charming and inviting nonetheless. Soft lights and gentle music were comforting in a town where bright lights and noisy boldness often overwhelm the senses. The staff and owners were very kind and welcoming and the dining areas were very nicely appointed with a myriad of interesting pictures and posters and signs to amuse and entertain.
The menu leans Italian, a popular genre in Cabo, but with very Mexican twists. Our chips and guacamole + chickpea appetizers were not only beautifully presented but very tasty as well. And for dinner, we chose the pizza which was an amazing crisp but fluffy tortilla-like base with fantastic red sauce with cheeses and meats abundantly layered on top.
The service was very attentive and the overall price very reasonable. There were other diners there as well, but we did not feel crowded and as well the soft tones and atmosphere were conducive to conversation and relaxation.
They do have music present on weekends, so there may be noisier moments in time, but for our visit, the situation was perfect. We would certainly go back again and highly recommend to anyone.
I rarely give a 5 rating as I reserve such for only near perfection. The overall thematic message conveyed by most of the wall items and wall decor leans a bit too much to USA culture and would prefer a more true Mexican flavor. And there are a few nooks and crannies I thought that still looked like works in progress. But these are minor compared to the overall experience at Higos y Olivos. Salud!
翻译:我们在卡波度假,想和一位当地朋友共进晚餐。他建议我们去当地人最爱的 Higos y Olivios(无花果和橄榄)餐厅用餐。事实证明,这是个很棒的推荐。
乍一看,从一条次要道路进入的餐厅似乎有点质朴,但仍然很迷人、很吸引人。柔和的灯光和轻柔的音乐让人感到很舒服,因为在这个小镇,明亮的灯光和喧闹的喧嚣常常会让人感到压抑。员工和老板都非常友好热情,用餐区布置得非常漂亮,挂满了各种有趣的图片、海报和标志,让人感到愉悦和娱乐。
菜单偏向意大利菜,这是卡波的一种流行菜系,但带有浓郁的墨西哥风味。我们的薯条和鳄梨酱 + 鹰嘴豆开胃菜不仅摆盘精美,而且味道鲜美。晚餐我们选择了披萨,披萨的底料像玉米饼一样酥脆但松软,上面铺满了美味的红酱,奶酪和肉类层层叠放。
服务非常周到,总体价格非常合理。那里也有其他用餐者,但我们并不觉得拥挤,柔和的色调和氛围也有利于交谈和放松。
周末他们确实有音乐,所以可能会有更吵闹的时刻,但对于我们的访问来说,情况是完美的。我们一定会再来,并强烈推荐给任何人。
我很少给出 5 分,因为我只为近乎完美而保留这样的评分。大多数墙壁物品和墙壁装饰传达的整体主题信息有点过于偏向美国文化,我更喜欢更真实的墨西哥风味。我觉得有几个角落和缝隙看起来仍然像是在进行中的工作。但与 Higos y Olivos 的整体体验相比,这些都是微不足道的。祝你好运!
