Romeo & Julieta
Romeo & Julieta continues to set a high standard for Italian cuisine and fine dining in Los Cabos. For more than three decades, it has grown stronger and stronger. Just last winter, it it debuted The Wine Bar by Romeo & Julieta next door. Much of that can be attributed to Italian-born chef Matias Forte, who has been with the restaurant for nearly a decade now. Everything is made fresh, and greens must be organic. Forte says he feels responsible for the health of his patrons, and he makes only periodic changes to the menu; try the pasta alla Norma, a popular Sicilian recipe. The fish is always fresh because Forte checks the whole fish before purchasing in order to see the eyes and gills. A favorite is local tuna, encrusted with sesame seeds and seared to perfection. When in season, fresh mussels in white wine or a delicious tomato blend are a great appetizer. Classic Caesars prepared tableside are a must. Not only is the food artistic, but the surrounding walls and alcoves of the restaurant are adorned with powerful works of art, including sculpture, by Hector Herrera whose original works shown were inspired by the restaurant.
