Nick-San

Since its inception in 1994, Nick-San has been one of the most popular local sushi restaurants, with Chefs Ángel Carbajal and Masayuki Nikura crafting a creative and innovative fusion of Japanese cuisine with traditional Mexican ingredients. This sort of fusion has since become quite common among area restaurants, but Nick-San was the first and remains the best. Sample their extensive menu of rolls, as well as house specialties like tuna tostada (featuring yellowfin tuna belly with avocado, habanero, infused red onion and sesame seeds on a rice cracker tostada), and sashimi serranito (spotlighting fresh catch of the day with serrano chile sauce and thinly sliced serrano chiles). Lobster lovers may choose from an embarrassment of riches that includes clear lobster rolls, fried lobster curry (with shiitake, habanero and chives), and lobster sambal marinated in sake with soy sauce, ginger and garlic. In addition to the Cabo San Lucas location, there is also a restaurant at Las Tiendas de Palmilla (The Shoppes at Palmilla).
