Pioneering Los Cabos chef Ángel Carbajal is best known for Nick-San, his enormously popular collaboration with Japanese chef Masayuki Niikura, which has spawned several restaurants throughout Mexico. Now Carbajal has launched a new solo project: Fat Tuna Copas y Cocina. The chic three-story restaurant in Cabo San Lucas’s nightclub district is a fun new vehicle where Carbajal can showcase his seafood mastery. There’s charred octopus and sea-salt-crusted whole fishes, plus lobster stroganoff, in addition to a wide selection of pastas and meat-centric dishes. The cocktail menu also demands attention; a signature Bloody Mary pushes the envelope with a blackened-tuna garnish.
