Frommer's Review

This splendid perch sits a couple stories above Camino del Mar; and although you're set back a few blocks from the beach, the unimpeded sea views are regal. Epazote changed course in 2006 from Southwestern cuisine to steakhouse, but its roots shine through with touches like the Epazote rub (one of more than a half-dozen rubs and glazes for your meat) that blends chipotle, ancho and pasilla chili powder, and sea salt. And the bar, which keeps extended hours, still whips up a wicked house margarita made with fresh lime and lemon juice, served in individual shakers over rocks. Epazote also has a Sunday brunch, a children's menu that doesn't condescend (grilled salmon, tiger shrimp), daily happy hour from 4-6:30pm, and live music on Thursdays (Oct-June).

About Our System

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.

Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.

The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
