Popular with both locals and visitors, this casual seafood restaurant serves perfectly prepared fish. Large servings at reasonable prices in an unpretentious setting. I was very pleased with my red snapper panfried in garlic,around 8 bucks. Perfect with a cold beer and guacamole. Yum!

We have only used the beach club but we have been there 5 out of 7 days. Food for breakfast and lunch was outstanding. The service from Luis, Rodrigo, Ramiro, Francisco and Felipe was the best I have ever had in Puerto Vallarta. Luis runs the show on the beach and every server looks up to him for guidance. This is our 8th or 9th trip to either the romantic zone or Casa de Mita and we will always be back to see our friends and El Dorado.

We tried out this restaurant with another couple who had heard great things about it, and we werenât disappointed. Itâs a few blocks walk (uphill) from the Malaecon and itâs charming with a friendly ambience. Food and wine were great, service was exceptional, and we enjoyed meeting and chatting with the owner, Mario. Apparently, he does cooking classes on Tuesdays, but we werenât available. Maybe next time! Scallops were exceptional. Only quibble from our group was that two people found their meat (lamb for one, beef for the other) a little salty, but they said they donât tend to salt their food, and this wouldnât stop them from going back.

One of the best restaurants in Puerto Vallarta that is off the beaten path, that offers one of the most creative menus encompassing local and indigenous ingredients and that changes weekly. It also serves as an art gallery for the renown Mexican artist Rogelio Diaz and his talented daughters. It is a culinary and artistic experience like no other in town. Your friends and visitors are sure to enjoy it.

Certainly recommend that you visit this authentic and delicious restaurant while in PV. The service is quick yet thorough. The food very very good. All prepared with local seafood. I had three different tortas. My favorite had ahi Tuna with toasted sesame seeds, spectacular. You will only find this there. The owner/manager visits each table to ensure you are happy and satisfied. We will certainly be back there. We were brought there by friends who live there and love it also.

We read the reviews and took them with a grain of salt. We made reservations to go and see for ourselves with a group of friends and we were blown away. The service is exceptional. The owner is the chef and believe me when I say we had the best clams clans and muscles we have ever had!!! We also live in San Francisco were great food is all around. The lobster and fish were great too. I would highly recommend. If you want to experience great food worth every peso go to Martini en Fuego. Be aware though that it is a cash only place. We did have to make a quick run to the ATM.

A neutral space becomes "chameleon" as night after night takes on a different dress with colorful personality diners, with their different identities and their own sounds. The day-to-day kitchen is different because there is no fixed menu, It depends on t

We stopped in for dinner while in Puerto Vallarta for a conference. The food was good (other than the brownie signature dessert with the caramelized popcorn ice cream!). The wait staff was very attentive and fast. Overall the atmosphere was a bit kitschy with the feeling of the white spray over everything.

Reviewed By nirvanaserra
Loved this place that I found while walking the Romantic Zone in Vallarta:- Amazing service: smiles, honest offering and prompt delivery. - Everything is made inside that little place. - Empanadas are really delicious. As well as the sauces, the âalfajoresâ and âfrolitasâ. - Prices are absolutely reasonable. - Small and cozy place. - They serve âcafé de Ollaâ (homemade pot coffee). Only one thing to work on:- The toilet. Me, personally, I am very picky about the bathrooms everywhere and many of you will agree that it is something that certainly speaks a lot about a place. Even if itâs small, it has to be clean and clear for the guests. Thank you very much for your opinion, we appreciate your appreciation. We will consider your comment. While we always keep very clean that day we failed the staff and we delayed some tasks, I hope you can apologize. From already thank you very much.
