The story
Dos Catrinas sits inside Four Seasons Resort Punta Mita as a two-story restaurant with open ocean views and an atmosphere that moves comfortably from leisurely breakfasts to late-evening bar service. The setting is lively without being loud — a place where the Pacific horizon and a well-made cocktail share equal billing.
The kitchen leans into authentic Mexican cuisine while giving it a contemporary edge: fresh seafood, locally inspired ingredients, and bold regional flavours that are treated with care rather than simply dressed up. The wine program has earned a Wine Spectator Award of Excellence, a mark of the seriousness with which the beverage side is managed alongside the food.
The signature move at Dos Catrinas is the tableside guacamole — fresh avocados mashed to order, folded with diced tomatoes, onions, cilantro, and lime juice right in front of the guest. It is a simple gesture, but it sets the tone: ingredients matter, and preparation is part of the experience.
Beyond that, the menus run from sunrise through midnight bar service, with lunch anchored by fresh seafood and dinner expanding into the full range of Mexican cuisine. Bespoke craft cocktails, developed by mixologists the restaurant describes as among the best in Mexico, are a genuine draw in their own right.
On Wednesday evenings the kitchen focuses on Oaxaca — its living culinary legacy, mole traditions, and indigenous ingredients. Saturdays become a celebration of Mexico's street food culture, reimagined with refined plating and premium sourcing. Both evenings are available à la carte or as a three-course prix fixe menu, making them a structured way to move through the depth of Mexican regional cooking in a single sitting.
