We absolutely loved this cooking class! It was the perfect mix of hands-on and relaxing. We got to participate in preparing an incredible meal without having to chop every single ingredient or stand over a hot stove the whole time, which we really appreciated.
The staff was warm, engaging, and made the whole experience so much fun from start to finish. The drinks were flowing, the food was delicious, and the vibe was just right for our group.
Highly recommend this experience to anyone visiting Cabo. We would definitely do it again!

It’s not what we expected. We expected more from the cooking class don’t get me wrong. The food is great. We thought we were gonna do some more cooking and more eating. I don’t recommend it.
Chef Roberto was kind and informative. He engaged the whole group. Upon arrival and throughout our experience the staff was gracious and very attentive. The food was delicious 😋 Highly recommend!
Fantastic recipes and presentation. We had a wonderful time learning about the history of ingredients and preparing amazing food.
So good! Much more extensive than I expected. Several courses, hands on. Very specific. Delicious and all natural. Chef Roberto has expertise and patience.
I thought the presentation of table and welcome sign was very nice. The people we cooked with were wonderful! Starting at 5 in July is too early due to outdoor venue and it was really hot. Hand sanitizer would be helpful instead of having to go wash our hands so many times. The instructor was very knowledgeable. The food was not high quality, type of fish used was bait fish and a plate full of chichiroinis was not good, rice and beans would have been better. Mezcal is an acquired taste so offering a regular tequila would be nice. With just a few upgrades the class would be much better.
When I arrived at the cooking class I was u firmed that I was the only one that signed up. As a solo female traveller, the staff made me feel very welcomed. I lived learning about the restaurant abs touring the ground. I am looking forward to returning to Cabo to sit down and try various food on the menu.
This was educational, fun, and delicious food. Know that it lasts longer than three hours, but well worth the money. They give you all the recipes of everything that you make to take home with you. We were a group of two, but we’re there at the table with nine other people and had a wonderful time.
Amazing food. Super fun guide. Beautiful garden. Excellent service. All around a wonderful experience!
This was a wonderful experience in a wonderful location. A very good time spent immersed in Mexican cooking and traditions
Very informative, loved the garden and explanation of things used in the chefs dishes.
Left feeling stuffed with a new knowledge of Mexican dishes.
More like a demonstration class than a cooking class, includes dinner than a actual full hands on class. Only made a drink and flatten a tortilla. They should not call it a cooking class.
🍽️ Cooking with the Calberts at Metate Cabo 🌮❤️
Tonight was more than dinner—it was an experience! ❤️ We rolled up our sleeves and stepped into the rich flavors and traditions of Mexico at the beautiful Metate Cabo. From preparing authentic dishes to sharing laughs around the table, every moment was filled with love, culture, and unforgettable memories.
There is something special about gathering together, creating a meal from scratch, and enjoying the fruits of your labor with the people you love most. Family, food, and fellowship—the perfect recipe for a blessed evening. ✨
Thank you, Cabo, for the warm hospitality and incredible culinary adventure. My heart (and my stomach 😊) are full!

Authentic cooking class in lovely restaurant with extensive gardens. Food was excellent as was the chef. I especially appreciated his attention to cleanliness.
Had a great time...educational as well as a lot of fun preparing the food. The food and drinks were amazing. Very well organized. We met a fun couple from Dallas and we all bonded as a team well.
Perfect blend of cooking a little and relaxing. We didn't make all the courses but that was just fine with us. Highly recommend!
The cooking class is not designed to be able to replicate at home. They charge for extras and seemed in a rush
3 is for the ambiance, Jacob the waiter, and the bartender apparently being a good chef doesn’t require people skills or patience considering it was a cooking class where we came to LEARN, I would have rather watched a cooking demonstration without being hands on then to be criticized and critique for minor things that as someone who has never cooked the dishes before could run into , then the fact that the chef stood around the table area waiting on tip and survey after the truly poor service from him was very amusing because you would have thought that if he was interested in a tip his customer service would have been a hell of a lot better, needless to say the restaurant itself was really nice the cooking class not so much
It was burial restaurant and the food was awesome, staff too. I rated it this Way because while we got the recipies we did not cook the entire meal. Mai and dessert was just part of thier menu. I thought we would cook all.
Some of the best food I've had. I am really picky about my food, if I don't like it eon't eat it. I wish there was more room in my stomach to taste everything. Roberto gave a tour of the garden and history of Metate. I didn't realize it was a Michelin star restaurant til we got there. Reasonably priced especially for the quality of food. Will defintely come back and recommemding it to friends.
This class was so much fun and the food was excellent. They started out with a traditional cocktail and then took us to their herb garden and explained how the food was grown and what each spice did. After we went and made drinks and they taught us how to make a cocktail. Then we went and made ceviche. It was incredible. Not fishy at all. They taught us how to make tortillas and we made empanadas. Following that we ate them. Then had our final course which was delicious. They were mindful of peoples food and preferences. My husband doesn’t drink and they even had drinks for him. The evening was followed up by Mexican flan that was amazing. We highly recommend this experience.
We had a tour of the premisis and learned alot about the plants that grow here in Mexico and how to make the masa for taco shells and the mold that grows on corn, it's like mushrooms taste. Food was very good.
The restaurant itself was very cool and the food was good as well! Our host was awesome and it was a great evening.
Wonderful class, Took us around the farm before cooking classic dishes. Got to learn how to make drinks as well
The “chef” arrived late. Treated us like we were bad employees he dislikes. He clearly wasn’t ready for the tour so he kept disappearing to get things for several minutes then returned to show us how to dice tomatoes (chef disappears), onions (disappear) and cucumbers (disappear) all while berating our salad chopping skills. The tour was so bad, it was funny. The restaurant was fun and quirky. Stop by the restaurant, skip the tour.
A fun and informative experience. The food was great and we plan to go back to Metate next year when we visit.
A wonderful time cooking with friends. We made ceviche and empanadas for the appetizer. For dinner we enjoyed a delicious pork shank which the restaurant prepared it’s a beautiful restaurant and we had a great time!
This experience was SO fun! The service was excellent, and the food was delicious! We made homemade tortillas, empanadas, and ceviche. The dinner (pork) was so tender, it fell off the bone. I highly recommend!
An experience of attentive staff, knowledgeable and accommodating. Drinks and appetizers were part of the fun interactive activity. Well worth the price that included drinks, food and dessert! Gracias Robert & Job!
The cooking class was great. Totally going to make my own corn tortillas at home from now on! What a fun way to spend an evening in a lovely setting.
Excellent tour of farm to table ingredients, pedigree and execution. Very knowledgeable chef and excellent food. This restaurant is going to climb it's way to Michelin stars. Lovely staff and personal service.
