Simply put, this is the most romantic spot in all of Los Cabos. Much like its namesake—Leonardo da Vinci’s celebrated masterpiece—Sunset da Mona Lisa dazzles and intrigues. Its perch over the Sea of Cortés offers incredible views any time of day, but the vista is most spectacular as the sky transforms into a brilliant watercolor and the sun descends over Land’s End. The menu boasts a quality and sophistication that could conquer the most discerning palate; its colors and flavors combining to create a one-of-a-kind experience, especially for a celebration like a birthday. Start with one of the bubbly Champagnes from Taittinger Terrace. An appetizer worth sharing (or as an entrée) consists of three large prawns wrapped in phyllo, quickly deep fried and served with a variety of dipping sauces. A local fish is usually on the menu, but don’t shy away from trying the salmon flown in fresh from Canada, crispy on the outside and moist on the inside served over pureed cauliflower. Another entrée with a wow factor is the lamb shank. For dessert, ask for the chocolate sphere: decadent, delicious and worthy of any celebration. Valet parking.
