Bistro Bleu is a French bistro that provides a delicious breakfast with great service. I didn't see any indication of the former name, Azur Bistro, other than the current translation. The ambience is sophisticated. I had trouble deciding whether the most striking thing about the bistro is the architecture inside, featuring huge white chandeliers, or the view from the dining terrace outside! Either way, I recommend, especially for a romantic meal. read more

Azur Bistro, now renamed to Bistro Bleu, is located on the top floor of Le Plaza at Vidanta. The ambience is exquisite - there's beautiful white chandeliers dropping from the ceiling and a live pianist. It was very romantic. I came with my family for a reservation at 9. They gave us free baguettes, and offered to give us more when we finished our first servings. As for mains, we ordered the catch of the day, the salmon, and the pork filet mignon. We all enjoyed our meals. The servings were all very big and very reasonably priced. They also gave us free macarons at the end of the night. The waiters were really sweet but my only complaint is that the service was super slow. Our dinner took 2 hours, mostly because it took a long time for us to order and for our food to come out. read more

The new name is Bistro Bleu. We were celebrating my birthday tonight and it was very special. The location overlooks the ocean and the man made pond with the fountain in the middle and the beautiful changing lights over the landscape. We came in time to watch the glorious sunset. We sat inside because we wanted to be able to hear the pianist serenade us with both popular and classical tunes. He was outstanding! Our service was spot on. We tried for the first time a new cocktail for us - Side Car. Wow- now adding that to my favorite drink list. I then treated myself to the French Onion soup which did not disappoint. I then had the rack of lamb which was perfectly cooked medium and tender over slices of squash and eggplant ratatouille. It was a lovely entree. For dessert we were shown a platter with an array of very delectable tarts, cakes and pastries. I chose the pithivier a lovely pie tart with a scoop of vanilla ice cream. A couple of us had decaffeinated cappuccino and they loved it. When all was said and done, our waiter came over with chocolate ball cakes and sang happy birthday to me. I was very surprised. It was an end of a perfect day. I was very grateful. read more

This is my fourth visit to Vidanta Nuevo Vallarta. I was sad to see that Azur Bistro was no longer on the list of restaurants, but it appears that they have simply been renamed to Bistro Bleu. We save our last dinner of each trip so we can sit outside looking over the pond and sunset. The quality of this restaurant is still notably higher than any other on the property, but I did find that the selection of mid-priced wines by the bottle ($1,000-$2,500 MEX) was not as well curated as in the past. My dinner mates weren't interested in wine anyway, so I had to settle for a glass of Mexican Cabernet Sauvignon that just didn't cut it. I'd like to see a broader selection of red wines by the glass. I enjoyed a very nice boeuf bourguignon atop homemade flat noodles that was divine. The manager is from France and really knows how to run his restaurant. Even though we were outside, we enjoyed the pianist playing indoors. read more

Definitely worth it! Great food and atmosphere. Lobster pasta was outstanding. Fish was very good as well read more

Food amazing. View is amazing. Service hands down one of the better places. This was one of the favorite ones we visited. I have to say that the GM of this place is absolutely the kindest person and my special needs little one was fascinated by him. Everytime he made his restaurant rounds he said hi to her. She loved it. It meant the world to me for her to be treated so kindly. The salmon is fantastic as is the scallops. Definitely try the escargot and the French cheese plate. Go at sunset and sit and enjoy a glass of wine. read more

Definitely a top shelf restaurant that goes well beyond the view and live pianist. Everything on the menu is worth getting again. read more

Our first time trying Azur Bistro restaurant, French cuisine. I'll try to make this short and sweet and to the point. Great service, great food, accompanied by great piano music as well. We were recommended to make reservations so we did. Thank you Mario for your wonderful pleasant service and attention to details. These are the small things which can enhance an experience as those little things make a big difference and because of that you made our family dinner a very enjoyable one. The combination with the view, the dinning experience and great music as well is fantastic! We had a few light salads, hot appetizers and our main course was the chicken supreme and beef tenderloin. The food was delicious. The pianist Christopher Diaz was great. We really enjoyed his music. Definitely would like to come back before our vacation ends. Until next time. Chao! read more

Came here for dinner one night while we were staying at the Grand Luxxe. I made my reservation on Open Table about a month ahead of time. I asked for a table with a view and they delivered! The restaurant is located on the top of the the Plaza and has a wonderful balcony. We were seated by the rail with a wonderful view overlooking the property. The food I had was delicious but the problem was they were out of almost everything! I had wanted the scallops but they were out. Second choice, the trout, also sold out. Our reservation was at 8, not even that late. I ended up just having the Lyonaise salad and the escargots. Kind of glad I didn't order an entree because I was full. Both the salad and escargots were excellent and I would recommend! Service was fine but not exceptional. Very friendly though! read more

This is a "don't miss" if you're at Vidanta Vallarta. Even if you're not staying at Vidanta, call them up, see if you can get in and make the trip ~ 15 mins north of PV airport. The view is spectacular, the decor is divine, it never feels crowded, even when full and the service is "rock star". Fabulous, authentic French cuisine is served by waiters dressed in black & white, from fabulous little tea carts - btw, the table-side preparation is outstanding (crepes suzette - simply must try, but maybe share with a friend!). When you reserve, ask to be seated with Ernesto - he is personable, friendly and professional (and very patient!), you will be well looked after. Spoiled even! And if you wait until you get there, you might miss out, so request in advance. We tried the duck confit, coq au vin, coquille st jacques, veal bourgeois and rack of lamb (yes, we went 3 times in 2 weeks!). For appetizers, we tried escalopes of duck foie gras, french onion soup, escargots, chèvre chaud salad and salad lyonnaise. Desserts - in addition to the previously mentioned crepes suzette, we had chocolate soufflé and grand marinier souffle. The wine list is not extensive but has a few gems included. Overall, well worth trying!! read more

We have eaten here many times in the prior years. It really was the best French bistro but it has really change. I had the Beef Burgonion and the sauce was burned and the beef tough. Both our meals were poor at best. I suppose the "French chef" could have not been cooking that night but still no excuse for the high price and small portions. The waiter did little to apologize but as there were but a few people there I expect they could have done better. Many of the restaurants at Vidanta are very good. This by far was the most disappointing. Try somewhere else. read more

Go. Go for the food, go for the view, go for the ambiance. This restaurant in a gallery is stunning, especially you're overlooking the ocean at sunset or so. The Salade Lyonnaise was authentic and fresh. The scallops were quite well prepared also. Oh, and the freshly baked French bread is exquisite! To die for. We didn't indulge in dessert, but if you're on a budget, going just for dessert would be a great option. There's piano music in the background, an unbelievable skyline in the foreground. You will love it. :) read more

We came here for a formal dinner as a family of four. I'll preface this review saying the only reason there's more than 1 star is because of the beautiful sunset view from our table. Ordered the foie gras and grilled salad as appetizer. Both were underwhelming, the salad was soggy and bitter. Entrees ordered were: prawns, chicken, fish of the day and beef stew. Every single protein served was over cooked. The fish was lathered in butter and lacked flavor. The chicken was served in a soup like sauce and also tough. It took a tremendous amount of effort to remove the prawns from their shells, I couldn't do it with the utensils provided. Overall the only decent dish was the beef stew. Come to this restaurant for the sunset view. If I came back I would only order cocktails and dessert. read more

The white Grand piano and the tuxedoed pianist add class to this really nice French restaurant. Best French bread this side of Paris. Great service at a reasonable price. I had the grouper fish with tomato and black olives. Nice! read more

Absolutely loved dining here on their patio while watching the sunset! The view, the service, & the food were all amazing that we decided we had to eat here again before we left. If you purchase the Vidanta dining package, a meal here was plentiful enough for my daughter and me to share but my husband eagerly finished his by himself! read more

Ate here multiple times while staying at Vidanta in Nuevo Vallarta, Mexico. The food, service, view all amazing and very reasonably priced compared to US prices. Beef and seafood were all very delicious and A+ for presentation. Service by staff (especially Hugo and Daniel) was awesome . There are many great restaurants in Vidanta, but this is our favorite. A must try! read more

The food was amazing and service was top notch. Ernesto, Hugo, and Fernando kept our wine glasses filled until the last sip. If you want a nice romantic night with a loved one you cant find a better place. Can't wait to go again! read more

We had dinner at Azur last night. It was an exceptional experience. The ambiance was elegant - fantastic live piano music, the attentive old-world sevice was great- Jesus and Xavier super - great table side flambe; the food a feast to the eyes and palate. The best restaurant in the resort. Well worth dining experience. read more

The food was amazing! The Champagne that was recommended by our Sommelier was as good as promised the wine list was varied in selection as well as price. The staff was friendly, knowledgeable and very professional. The atmosphere was relaxed and comfortable. They had a piano player who added a flavor of romance. read more

Excellent food and service in a romantic balcony over viewing the ocean! Their Sea Bass was so fresh and tender with a touch of pistachio all over it. If you are visiting this area...must try! read more

Excellent service. Beautiful ambiance. For the appetizer had the escargot. It was excellent. They came in the shell and were cooked perfectly. I could eat those all day. Since they were out of the duck confit, for our main course we decided to get the filet mignon with the peppercorn sauce. Was not a fan. The beef cut did not seem high quality and the peppercorn sauce tasted like plain gravy. I would have assimilated my meal to having a Salisbury Steak tv dinner. read more

This was the first restaurant I tried while at the vidante resort and was surprised how great the food was. We all enjoyed our meals. The desert was not as good as the rest of the meal, but otherwise def was as good if not better than many restaurants near home in SF. read more

Decent French food; one of the only restaurants we went to at the resort that served food in a reasonable time. Nice view on the patio if you can stand the heat. read more

Food was absolutely outstanding. I had the beef fillet with foie gras and it was absolutely delicious. The service was very friendly. Also the view from the outside is very cool. Service speed can vary on a very large scale depending on how busy it is. read more

Poor service, leadership apathetic to customer feedback. Food very nice, no one in charge, guests are not very important, employees not a team, so fend for yourself. Seven friends universally expected a high end dining experience, and would've been more happy elsewhere, anywhere. read more
