I can only comment on breakfast at Don Manuel's but that being said we ate here multiple times because it was so good. Seriously, if you are staying at the Capella, you would be foolish not to have the buffet at Don Manuel's - it's one of the best we've ever had. 1) Location - Don Manuel's is overlooking the... More

I was at the restaurant for dinner while staying off-site. After reading some of the recent reviews I almost didn't go. That would have been a mistake. The restaurant is truly world class. It is most like Las Ventanas, which is a Rosewood property in Cabo. The food was excellently presented, and the service outstanding. This is a small plate... More

We enjoyed several small plates, and were extremly pleased with the taste, size, and presentation. Highly recommend a visit to Don Manuel's. The view and the service are spectacular. Don't miss a drink at the bar!

My wife and I dined several times at Don Manuels during our stay at Capella and never had a bad meal. For breakfasts we had the pancakes/waffles and omelets prepared any way you want, just ask, and shared them. A much better deal than their $35++ buffet. For dinner we had the red snapper and steak, excellently prepared. They were... More

Hopefully our experience was due to some isolated circumstance (being short handed), but management sure needs to realize their role by at least coming over to the table to apologize for the wait.

We ate at Don Manuel's several times when we stayed at the Capella Pedregal. The gazpacho was really good, and we also had the seviche salad at least twice. Nice atmosphere and good cocktails.

We had six in our party and every one was over the top impressed by this restaurant - yes, it was pricey but the meal was absolutely worth it. The flavor combinations and techniques that they used as well as the visual presentation made for a very special evening. We were catered to from the moment we arrived and throughout... More
