The Restaurant

The marina's most iconic table —
from pre-dawn departures to sunset margaritas.

Captain Tony's is a waterfront institution on the Cabo San Lucas Marina boardwalk — positioned directly next to the Pisces Sportfishing offices and the iconic World's Biggest Marlin statue. It draws a cross-section of everyone who moves through this marina: local fishing captains grabbing breakfast before dawn, cruise ship passengers exploring the boardwalk at midday, and tourists settling in for a long evening of margaritas and live music with luxury yachts filling the slips behind them.

The You Hook It, We Cook It program is one of Cabo's best dining concepts — anglers bring their morning catch directly to the kitchen, which prepares it up to four ways: sashimi, ceviche, blackened, or pan-fried in garlic butter, served with rice, salad, and house focaccia. For guests not fishing, the regular menu runs from stone-oven pizzas and Curricanes sushi rolls to classic Baja tacos and ceviches, all at pricing that feels refreshingly honest relative to the cliffside resort dining rooms up the coast.

What Makes Captain Tony's Unique on the Cabo Marina?

Captain Tony's is the only restaurant in Cabo where you can bring in your fresh catch — dorado, tuna, wahoo — and have the kitchen prepare it sashimi, ceviche, grilled, or tacos-style. It opens at 5:30 AM for fishermen and closes after dinner.

The Menu

From the catch to the kitchen — what to order

Signature

You Hook It, We Cook It

Bring in your fresh catch — Dorado, Tuna, Wahoo — and the kitchen transforms it up to four ways: sashimi, ceviche, blackened, or pan-fried in garlic butter. Served with white rice, garden salad, and house-made focaccia from the stone pizza oven.

Must Order

Curricanes — Tuna & Crab Sushi Roll

The most-requested starter in the house — premium local tuna wrapped tightly around crab and avocado, finished with a mildly spicy house sauce. A Cabo Marina staple that regulars always order first.

From the Oven

Stone-Oven Wood-Fired Pizzas

Cooked in a seasoned hardwood stone oven for a smoky, perfectly charred crust. A consistent crowd-pleaser, especially popular with families and younger guests alongside the seafood program.

Baja Staples

Fish Tacos, Shrimp Tacos & Ceviches

Classic beer-battered or flame-grilled fish and shrimp tacos served with tableside-made guacamole and salsa mexicana. The ceviche program mirrors the freshness of the catch-and-cook philosophy.

Drinks

Giant House Margaritas & Bloody Marys

Captain Tony's pours famously strong, oversized house margaritas alongside iced buckets of Mexican beer and loaded Bloody Marys. The drink program matches the high-energy marina atmosphere at every hour.

Breakfast

Fisherman's Sunrise Menu — 5:30 AM

One of the only full-breakfast spots on the marina open before 6 AM — chilaquiles, breakfast burritos, and egg plates designed for sportfishing captains and anglers heading out at dawn.

Before You Go

Timing, the catch-and-cook process & what to expect

Captain Tony's is walk-in friendly at almost any hour, but the boardwalk tables fill fast on busy cruise-ship days when multiple vessels dock simultaneously. If you're fishing in the morning, plan to bring your catch directly from the cleaning station — the kitchen handles the preparation while you settle in. The early breakfast window (5:30–7 AM) is genuinely quiet and a great way to start a fishing charter day.

Pricing at Captain Tony's is notably more approachable than the resort dining scene — margaritas, tacos, and a full fish dinner for two can easily come in under $80 USD. It is one of the few marina spots where both visiting anglers and budget-conscious travelers land at the same table and both leave satisfied.
