About
Captain Tony's is a well-established Cabo San Lucas seafood and breakfast restaurant with a 4. 6-star rating and a 2 on the price scale — solid quality at a fair price. Open daily from 5:30 AM to 10 PM, the early opening is a deliberate nod to the fishing community the restaurant has always served, making it one of the few places in Cabo that genuinely feeds people before 7 AM.
For families who booked early morning fishing charters or boat tours, Captain Tony's is a natural pre-departure breakfast stop. The menu spans fresh seafood dishes, egg breakfasts, traditional Mexican morning fare, and American comfort options — a range that accommodates picky eaters and adventurous ones alike. Fish tacos, egg plates, shrimp dishes, and fresh fruit are typical staples.
The seafood is notably fresh given the restaurant's proximity to the fishing fleet. The atmosphere is casual and unpretentious — booths and tables rather than tablecloths and menus too long to read. Families with young children will appreciate the relaxed pace and practical seating.
Service is attentive without being hovering. The restaurant is popular with both locals and long-time Cabo visitors who know it as a reliable, consistent choice. Prices are reasonable relative to the tourist-facing marina restaurants.
Weekend brunch hours bring a bigger crowd, so arrive early or expect a short wait. The combination of good food, practical hours, and fair pricing makes Captain Tony's a default for families doing early morning activities.

Why Kids Love It
Captain Tony's opens at 5:30 AM and feels like a genuine fisherman's restaurant — not a tourist performance of one. Kids who have been on morning fishing trips love coming back here to eat what they (or other boats) caught. The fresh seafood, eggs, and American breakfast options mean everyone at the table can find something they want.
Pro Tips from Parents
- 5:30 AM opening makes this the go-to breakfast spot before early morning fishing or snorkeling departures.
- Fresh fish tacos at breakfast — it sounds odd but it's worth trying if your kids are open to it.
- Weekday mornings are quieter than weekends; arrive before 8 AM on Saturdays to beat the crowd.
What to Bring
- A modest appetite for breakfast — portions are generous
- Cash as backup for a restaurant that serves the local fishing community
- A jacket for very early morning visits — 5:30 AM in Cabo can be surprisingly cool near the water
