    Not worth it. And open table had the wrong address completely. This restaurant relocated from the arts district and now has a limited menu as well. Don’t trust the menu items here or on yelp

    Pastor tacos are a must as well as the very fresh and tasty empanadas! We had a fabulous margarita and the service was amazing!

    Best place we dined while we were on our family trip in San Jose Del Cabo-the food was incredible-especially the grilled octopus. Drinks were fantastic-wish we would have discovered it sooner!

    Great overall experience. The food and service were top notch. We visited the new location and it was rather empty. At first we were hesitant to walk in, seeing as how we were the only guests, but this turned out to be a treat. The staff was amazing and willing to make off the menu items for us (in addition to their amazing on menu items). We have been here each time we visit the city for vacation, and always enjoy the food. Will definitely return and recommend others to do so!!!

    I"m very sorry to report that Choriarte is not the restaurant we used to love when it was at the old location. It's apparently not only the location that has changed, which was already sad because the old one had a real originality to it and at great location in the old Arts District. One of the two owners, the Argentinian, has moved back to Argentina, and most of the flavor appears to have left with him. The food is a very pale version of what they used to serve; what were vivid flavors and well and precisely cooked meat, are now weak and conventional, without the Argentinian zing and sophistication. The chumichurri, which I used to love, was flat and uninteresting. My meat was way undercooked, my grilled vegetables arrived cold, and with a runny light sauce that seemed to rinse the natural flavor off of the corn and peppers. Our friends were not very happy with their seafood pasta, which was also bland; and my husband's sandwich was just OK. We used to go to Choriarte every time we'd go to the Art Walk, but didn't return after the last time when the duo playing music were so loud we couldn't have a conversation. Then, when the band from the Brewery and the marching bands started, it became even more uncomfortable, so I was looking forward to enjoying the same great food in an equally creative venue, but a little farther away from the cacophony. I'm sorry to say, we don't plan to go back.

    They hosted a charity event and kept the restaurant open to the public. No digs at the charity event but I don’t want to sit through speeches and bad music for my dinner. Was treated like a bar not a restaurant. Have had good service and meals here before.
