We had the honour, pleasure and opportunity (I stress opportunity to the utmost) to be indulged at Kahal. An above and beyond experience at every single level. Every dish was an absolute work of art presented by chef Sandro Falbo. No words to even describe what we ate, and too many words that would be too long for this review. Sandro even gave us a lot of time and attention coming out from the kitchen to visit and talk a bit about the dishes. The staff were outstanding hosts who genuinely cared about our entire experience and spent the time to chat with us which we love. Not to mention this is directly on the beach accompanied with an incredibly high end seating experience, especially how we timed this with the best sunset of our lives. Just the atmosphere alone is a reason to go. We appreciated our experience so much it makes us emotional looking back on it. Thank you so much to the lovely staff. Would be an honour to come back next time we're in Baja.

Chef Sandro Falbo ensured our dining experience was amazing. A truly unique food experience. This place is magical! To be able to enjoy such terrific food with the beautiful scenery of the whales playing and the sunset was an added bonus. We can’t wait to return. Tony provided us great service as well. Thanks Chef Falbo for spoiling us rotten!

Exceptional Dining Experience at Kahal
I recently had the pleasure of dining at Kahal and I must say, it was an extraordinary experience from start to finish. From the moment I walked in, I was greeted with warmth and hospitality, setting the tone for what was to come.
The ambiance of the restaurant was nothing short of captivating, with elegant decor and a cozy atmosphere that immediately put me at ease. The attention to detail in every aspect of the dining area was impeccable, creating the perfect setting for a memorable meal.
Now, let's talk about the food. Each dish that graced our table was a work of art, beautifully presented and bursting with flavor. From the appetizers to the dessert, every bite was a delight to the senses. It's clear that the Chef Sandro is a master of his craft, combining creativity and expertise to deliver an unparalleled culinary experience.
But what truly set this dining experience apart was the impeccable service. The staff went above and beyond to ensure that every need was met, offering recommendations, accommodating dietary restrictions, and anticipating our desires before we even had to ask. Their professionalism and genuine passion for hospitality truly elevated the evening to something special.
In conclusion, dining at Kahal was not just a meal, but an unforgettable journey for the palate and the soul. I wholeheartedly recommend it to anyone seeking an exceptional culinary experience. Five stars hardly seem enough to convey the excellence of this establishment. I can't wait to return and savor the magic once again.

Dining with acclaimed Italian Chef Sandro Falbo (who hails from Rome via Cabo San Lucas where he was executive chef at The One & Only Palmilla, along with stints at many other luxury and Michellin-starred restaurants around the world) is truly an experience not to be missed!
We have dined here twice, once on a date night just after they opened, and again last night with our 3 teenage boys. So I wanted to write a review while the experience was still fresh in our minds!
First off, the setting of this restaurant is as gorgeous as it gets. Situated beachfront on a long expanse of white sand and crashing waves, you’ll probably see whales cavorting in the distance. I suggest that you try and arrive before sunset for a real treat. The open air dining room is designed with reflection pools and mood lighting that shimmers like the inside of a seashell.
The service is friendly and attentive, and chef Sandro often comes out of the kitchen to make his rounds of the tables and say hello. Which brings me to the food! The dishes are inventive, elevated, farm to table, ingredient driven, seasonal, and delicious - which is just about all you can ask for in a meal. The chef draws on the vast organic vegetable and herb gardens that he grows onsite, as well as local produce and the daily catch from the local fishermen. It just doesn’t get any fresher.
While Kahal is billed as a seafood restaurant (at which it excels) my husband has tried both the chicken and the steak entrees and he loved them both. My catch-of-the-day seabass dinner last night was delicious to the last bite, and the savory watermelon salad with olive tapenade was a surprising combo that absolutely worked! I would happily order both of these dishes again. My 16 year old said that the tuna carpaccio appetizer topped with truffle was hands down the best thing he’d ever tasted :) The dessert and cocktail menu is just as inventive and flavorful, and everything is presented so artfully, without being the least bit fussy or pretentious.
Needless to say, we love this new restaurant and we look forward to bringing more of our friends here to experience it with us! (And I NEED to eventually trying everything on this inspired menu.)

Dinner at Kahal was one of the most magical and delightful culinary adventures I’ve ever been on!
We reserved a spot as part of Gastrovino’s 5-course dinner + wine pairing and received way more than we bargained for:
- Ample welcome bites (hamachi, ceviche, fresh garden treats)
- Some smooth, smooth tequila
- A beautiful sunset at the best seat in the house
- Five courses that spanned cured fish, pastas, short rib, fresh fish, and a velvety flan (I basically licked every single plate, the food was fantastic)
- Amazing service
- Personalized touches from Chef (including accommodating a shellfish allergy at a seafood-heavy dinner, I know - I’m that annoying person)
- Beats that meant we almost broke out into a slow cooked flan-inspired Despacito dance party at the end
If fine dining and being open to entrusting a renowned, passionate chef with curating the perfect evening is your thing, then book Kahal immediately as you’ll be gifted with a very memorable evening.
Looking forward to coming back soon, thank you again!

We had an amazing experience at Kahal, the restaurant is beautiful (right on the ocean), we enjoyed sunset and then Chef Sandro enticed us into trying his eleven course tasting meal. That type of dining is very unusual for us as we usually share a meal however, we are very happy of our choice. Jeff Sandro made it feel like we were the only people in the restaurant, delivering many of the plates himself every course was complex both in design and flavor. it was an amazing experience. If you have time (took about 2 1/2 hours) and about $500 I would recommend this experience. Food was around $225.00 and we bought two bottles of wine (took most of one of them home). Cheers to Chef Sandro, Daniella and staff.

My family and I went for the Sunday brunch and what a great it was! The chef Sandro has created something very special here. The food was breathtaking. Everything was extremely fresh and absolutely amazing! Sandro was gracious enough to give us a tour of the property and his gardens after our meal as well. It was a very special experience that I will always remember.

I've had the pleasure of dining at Kahal a few times, and the food, service, and views are amazing! Chef Sandro and the whole team go out of their way to make a memorable evening for each guest. We loved the ahi tartar, the tostadas, the steak, the risotto, the chicken...there wasn't a dish we didn't rave about. Go for sunset! We've been with and without kids...it's an upscale restaurant but with beach access so if they start to get wiggly, you can just walk down the stairs and work off some energy.
