Los Cabos • Talk of the Town • Downtown Cabo Favorite Gets New Name Formerly known as La Ricazon—the second of two Los Cabos locations—the newly renamed Frank’s Place certainly deserves its own identity. (It is still a member 16 LOS CABOS MAGAZINE | WINTER 2013–2014 of the La Ricazon restaurant group.) The charming, colorfully appointed eatery has quickly become a fixture in the downtown dining scene; it serves up tasty Mexican cuisine and grilled specialties from a prime people-watching spot at Plaza Bonita. Not only does its kitchen churn out delicious menu offerings but the bar at Frank's Place is the perfect spot to cool off with cold beers and tropical cocktails or to watch all the latest sporting events.
