Domenico Stile & Emanuele Olivero · Sunset Monalisa

New at Monalisa

A new chef team.
The same Monalisa.

Domenico Stile, chef of two-Michelin-star Enoteca La Torre in Rome, now leads our kitchen as Culinary Advisor, alongside Culinary Director Emanuele Olivero.

What they bring is the cooking of their Italian family: handmade pasta, honest flavors, a modern and casual Italian cuisine.

Order à la carte on the terrace as always, or let Domenico choose for you with the Chef Experience.

First seating, a romantic sunset over the bay.

Second seating, the live Cuban band plays.

Sunset Monalisa is part of Club Vatel Mexico

Héctor Morales on joining Vatel Club México

In March 2025, Sunset Monalisa published this conversation with Héctor Morales about joining the Los Cabos chapter of Vatel Club México. His answers reflect his work and ambitions at that time.

Vatel Club México is an association of gastronomy professionals. Its own history dates its foundation to 1992 and names the French chef Olivier Lombard among its founders.

What does it mean to be Vatel?

Being Vatel is a dream I have had for some time. It gives me greater pride and challenge than I have at the moment. It is a feeling of reaching out, and, as I have expressed, it is raising the bar. Right now, I want to be the best Vatel chef and continue to support the talent of young chefs in my kitchen.

What does French cuisine mean to you?

The base, the technique, the bottoms, and the butter! Many things inspire me, and I constantly revisit the form, the background, and the tradition of French cuisine.

What is your favorite product?

Seafood fascinates me, and I love to create recipes for seafood, shells, and fish. The sea has incredible diversity. We still have a long way to go to understand the magnitude of our seas, rivers, and oceans and to take responsibility for preserving and protecting marine life and sustainable fishing.
