Chef Tadd Chapman’s decade-old, palm-shaded bistro is reminiscent of those delightful sidewalk cafés you would expect to see in Europe. Customers return time after time for Chapman’s extensive selection of exceptional fare, huge portions, and great pries. For less than $10 U.S., you can choose from an eclectic list of 15 breakfasts—coffee (or tea) and fresh fruit are included. (Learn more about Chapman in our feature “Family of Three,” page 52.) Come lunchtime or dinner, get going with gingered tuna ceviche served on wonton crisps, the Frazzled prawns in a red pepper aioli sauce, or the Sushizza (a seafood trilogy that becomes a luncheon medley when you add barbecued pulled pork).

The surf and turf platter for two is spectacular: It comes with lobster tail, filet mignon, coconut shrimp, mashed potato, and veggies. The equally magnificent Chicken Piazza is a tower of grilled chicken Parmesan, panko crusted eggplant, and mozzarella served on a white pesto mirror. Of the house-made desserts, opt for the Mexican Coffee Mocha Mud Pie, made with crema de tequila, añejo tequila, and Kahlúa.

Chapman is a certified tequila expert, so seek his expertise when selecting from the 100-plus tequila options. Blvd. Mijares, Plaza Misiones, San José del Cabo, (624) 142-2626, www.habanerosgastrogrill.com. Daily 8 a.m.–11 p.m. MasterCard and Visa accepted. $–$$$ C.M.
