VERIFIED LUXURY

Understated elegance and authentic flavors reign supreme at Humo, the signature restaurant at Zadún, a Ritz-Carlton Reserve. A celebration of South America’s age-old grilling traditions, the alfresco dining room immerses diners in a rustic-chic ...

Our Inspector's Highlights

The sophisticated dining room and terrace showcase the power of simplicity. Wood floors, bare marble tables and rough-hewn stone walls add texture and visual interest to the airy space, centered around a lively open kitchen.
Reserve a table on the terrace in the early evening to watch the breathtaking Cabo sunset cast a reflection across the shimmering Sea of Cortez — these are the moments that create lasting memories.
The unique menu of the Los Cabos restaurant offers a delicious tour of South American cooking traditions. Highlights include street foods like empanada criollas (Argentine beef empanadas) and grilled specialties such as fish and banana, Peruvian-style roasted chicken or wagyu picanha (rump cap).
Humo’s Candil Agave Bar celebrates Mexico’s vibrant culture, offering locally inspired cocktails and more than 100 agave-based spirits. Savor a tasting flight of smoky mezcal or try one of the bar’s masterfully crafted signatures.
While flame-grilled meats and seafood steal the spotlight, Humo’s raw offerings are no less impressive. Start your meal with Baja oysters topped with a lemongrass mignonette or a refreshing Peruvian ceviche featuring the catch of the day, sweet potato, corn and tangy leche de tigre.

The Chef

With a foundation in Peruvian cuisine, chef Jeffrey Liu Rodríguez Román got his start at Lima’s esteemed D’Gallia Gastronomic Institute before working at illustrious local restaurants, including the pioneering cebichería La Mar.
Eager to explore the wide world of South American and Caribbean cuisine, the talented chef moved to San Juan, Puerto Rico, where he helmed the kitchens of upscale eateries like BLT Steak and the Ocean Bar & Grill at The Ritz-Carlton, San Juan.
Rodríguez Román later led the kitchen of The Ritz-Carlton, Santiago in Chile, showcasing his passion and versatility. In 2019, he became the sous chef of Zadún’s X (Equis) waterfront Mexican restaurant, revamping the menu to highlight fresh local produce and seasonal seafood.
Today, the seasoned chef brings his diverse culinary background to Humo, where the breadth of his South American cooking experience is on full display.
