Welcome to Cabo: Edinburgh's Most Authentic Mexican Restaurant!

About Our Cuisine

We're serious about creating the most authentic Mexican food in Edinburgh

Mexican cuisine is a vibrant tapestry of flavours, colours, and traditions, shaped by centuries of history and the blending of diverse cultures. Rooted in the culinary practices of ancient civilisations such as the Aztecs and Mayans, it began with native staples like maize, beans, chilli peppers, and cacao. The arrival of the Spanish in the 16th century introduced new ingredients such as rice, wheat, meats, and dairy, sparking a rich fusion of Old and New World flavours. This melding of traditions has given rise to the complex, layered dishes that Mexico is celebrated for today.

At Cabo, we honour these traditions while adding our own creative flair. Our dishes pay tribute to Mexico’s diverse culinary heritage, from the bustling markets of Mexico City to the sun-drenched coasts of Baja. By combining authentic techniques with fresh Scottish produce and carefully sourced Mexican imports, we bring you flavours that are both true to their roots and excitingly new.

A group of us had a birthday celebration here. It was a great night. The food that was brought to the table was excellent and really did taste like authentic Mexican food. The table we were at was large enough for the ten of us, and our server was polite, prompt and well presented. She even got us all to do the Mexican tequila chant. She also recommended that when ordering treat the food like tapas and share. There are toilets for customers downstairs to the right as you come in the front door.

Very lovely and well put together restaurant! Staff are very friendly and welcoming, coats were taken and placed out of site. Very warm and cosy feeling in the restaurant, some might find it a bit dim (low lighting). Very elegant and clean inside. Was offered water and the drinks menu. Decent selection of wine and cocktails. I settled for a beer whilst waiting. Later went with house red, which was lovely, which is surprising for the house. Food was amazing!!! So tasty and filling. Would definitely come back here.

I was impressed by the design of the restaurant, utilising the Victorian details, with added modern motifs with it all in a contrasting colour scheme. The food was top notch, I had the Vampiro Tacos. Staff was excellent.

Everything we had was absolutely delicious. We had the cauliflower tempura, calamares, some fries, some chicken tacos and I think a beef short rib croquette. I would highly recommend the calamares. It was delicious and paired with samphire which is my favourite. The croquettes were also delicious but I’m unsure if they are still on the menu. Everything else was good too!
