Time has served this restaurant well. In just a few short years, its reputation—and fantastic Italian and Mediterranean cuisine—has garnered a growing list of culinary fans. It is small in size but very big on everything that matters in a restaurant: excellent food, service, and ambience. Salads come in two sizes, chica or grande; the small portion is sufficient for two, especially if followed by a tasting of the variety of dishes such as a soufflé de primavera made with veggies, béchamel, and Parmesan, or perhaps the restaurant’s signature dish: eggplant parmigiana. If you haven’t yet tried saltimbocca, this Roman specialty may become your favorite. Finely sliced beef is sprinkled with sage and topped with a thin slice of prosciutto, sautéed in butter, then braised in white wine. Dessert is a must: tiramisu, crème brŭlée, or cannoli. Miguel Hidalgo, Cabo San Lucas, (624) 143-1386, www.invitabistro.com. Nightly 5 p.m.–11 p.m. MasterCard and Visa accepted. $$ S.A.B.
