    Stopped by for a late lunch. It is a cute little restaurant with smart, modern decor. We took a patio seat in the shade. Great spot for people watching. We enjoyed the raw oysters, which were fresh with good flavor and side sauces. We also shared the lobster burger, which was very good. The bun was fluffy and grilled, crisp lettuce, and nice ripe heirloom tomato. Our waiter, Gustavo, was very attentive and is doing a great job! We would definitely return.

    We loved this place for breakfast, so much so that we went twice in a row. The food was not only affordable, but incredibly delicious. One of the best cups of coffee I have ever had. Their french toast was so fluffy and delightful. My husband enjoyed the crab eggs Benedict. Please don't miss out on their wonderful meals!

    The dinner was so incredible that we came back for breakfast. Oscar was our server both times and he was outstanding. The sidewalk seating was exquisite. I'm sorry I didn't think to take pictures!

    The experience was outstanding! From the time we were greeted by the super friendly hostess. Our meals were authentic French cuisine and the shrimp & calamari dish and the Sea Bass dish were so fresh & delicious. And the shrimp tacos were unbelievable! Our waiter and the chef/owner were very friendly & conversational! We would definitely come back for dinner. In fact, we're gonna try the crepes for breakfast tomorrow morning. Hats off to Bistro by Sebastian Agnes across the street from Hilton's Cabo Azul resort in San Jose del Cabo! Oh, and the musician was awesome!

    Fantastic Little find. The wife and I were walking from our stay at Viceroy in San Jose. Decided to take a walk, was pretty hot so we did not make it too far. We had already met our quota for Mexican fare and were truly "Jazzed" to find BISTRO. A cozy enough place not to far from the resort. I'm from New Orleans, so we noticed the decor was filled with interesting vintage Paris Jazz art, and the TV was showing French Black and White films with volume down and subtitles. The energy was a nice change from all the music and ambiance we have had for the last three days. My fish was perfect, and my wife had a small salad and a skinny Margarita. Service was great, and we had a lovely chat over some wine when done. Fully enjoyed it.

    Love Bistro by Sebastian Agnes! Sebastian himself and his staff are incredibly kind and thoughtful. I loved it so much that I had it for both lunch and dinner today! I highly recommend the pig suckling tacos, beef tartare, and their dirty martinis. I will take more pictures next time!

    This restaurant is truly a gem. The decor is beautiful and modern, creating a stylish yet welcoming atmosphere. The service was excellent—attentive, friendly, and professional from start to finish. The food was absolutely outstanding. Every bite reflected top-notch flavor and quality. I had the tuna tartare, and without a doubt, it was the best I’ve ever had. The crepes were also delicious—perfectly made and full of flavor. And to top it all off, the beer was ice-cold and refreshing—just what we needed. The ambiance is so relaxed and enjoyable, making it a perfect spot to unwind and savor a great meal. We will definitely be back!
