This will be a lunch to remember. Their menu is based on flavours emanated from the Yumano culture, an ethnic group of Baja California. Chef Guillermo Muñoz integrates herbs, roots, spices, and flowers, that combined with smoked, grilled and toasted, give life to BajaMed fusion cuisine.
At Yumano Restaurant you may also enjoy house drinks and mixology (not included) inspired by native ingredients.
