This place is so pretty. It has a great garden area and beautiful trees and feels like you are in a fairy tail. The bar next door plays music and even though you can't see it, it adds to the great atmosphere. The food is spectacular. Everything we had was amazing. We had 4 different dishes. Pho dumplings, kimchi fried rice with shrimp, pork buns and samosas. Out of everything, the samosas were ok. They were not bad, but everything else was spectacular! The service was a little dicey. It took 20 minutes to get our drink order. Part of the food came out for the table and then a half hour later the rest came out. The main course came before the hors d'oeuvres. BUT... the quality of the food And the atmosphere made up for the service. They would have gotten 5 stars if it wasn't for the service. It's definitely a must try when you are in PV. read more

Great spot downtown Puerto Vallarta - hard to get into, so make a reservation. Beautiful atrium setting. Wonderful menu choices. We went with 18 hour oxtail broth in the Pho, and the Dan Dan noodle Ramen, both were fantastic! The yellow chicken curry was not outstanding, but still ok. The Xianxi dumplings had a great sauce, super solid. We had a new server, but others covered for him, and the experience was great. Don't miss this gem! read more

Our little gang of 4 was craving a change of pace from the usual (but delicious) Mexican dinners we'd been eating for the previous 4 nights. Bonito sounded like a great choice, and it really was! We ordered a variety of appetizers and main dishes and shared them all. The papaya salad, Korean short ribs, chicken curry, lobster dumplings, biang-biang noodles... all so well-prepared and satisfying. The service was fast and friendly, the atmosphere was superb. Yeah... this is 5 out of 5 stars, for sure! They also have pho, and I would've liked to have tried that too, but it's only available on Saturdays for whatever reason. read more

I don't even know if I have the words to eloquently describe how absolutely delectable every single option on the menu is here. Francie has gone above and beyond to make Bonito Kitchen a full experience from the moment you walk in to the moment you leave. The ambiance, the service, the amazing food and cocktails. It's all top-notch, and if I had it in my dietary budget, I'd eat here more than once per week. read more

Very good Asian food, they're not scared to season your food or make it very spicy. The cocktails are good, especially the Lavender one. The service here is fairly acceptable, and the ambiance is very chill. read more

We liked this one better than the one in Fluvial. Everyone was so nice. The Vegan Tan Tan Ramen was delicious as was the Green Papaya Salad. We planned to go back, but came down with COVID at the end of our trip. read more

Bonito Kitchen Downtown - Spicy Vegan Tan Tan Ramen and cooling Green Papaya Salad - Vietnamese Near Me - Puerto Vallarta, JAL

So so incredibly excited for Asian flavors in PV!!! The flavors are immense and diverse, enjoyed everything I ordered. The new location is still figuring out some logistics and workflows though, so service is slow and could be fine tuned a bit more. But I'm incident they'll smooth things out with some time. Update: came back a couple weeks later and service definitely improved!!! Might be because of hitting it off with the staff though and so they felt more inclined to be better. Ordered the spice tan tan ramen, soft shell crab nap, and miso mushrooms this time and they were all delicious!!! read more

Note: The location listed was completely destroyed last summer by hurricane Nora; the new zona romántica location is Venustiano Carranza 512, near El Brujo, beside the beautiful banyan tree. I always have the best meals at Bonito, along with great service in a wonderful space. Last night I had a Bonito cocktail (tequila, mint, orange, frozen), the grilled zucchini w Thai basil pesto and crushed peanuts, pork belly bao, and teriyaki salmon bowl. All were fresh and delicious, with wonderful depth of flavors. This is a favorite of mine in PV. read more

Let's start with the place , is a nice environment with nice music. Service wasn't as good as we waited 20 mins before someone came to ask for the drinks , we asked for the food since we saw was taking long. Food came within 15 mins and was good, with the exception of the won tong in pho broth . I give it a 3/5 good to go once but not to return read more

Some of the best Asian fusion I've ever had and it's right in the heart of Puerto Vallarta's Zona Romantica. The owner and her sister spent a good time talking with us as we were a large group of 6 Asians super stoked to find good Asian food in Mexico! If you're staying in this area or are visiting the Malecon do yourselves a favor and stop in here. Our large group that got 1-2 drinks each spent around 140 USD total. Absolutely delightful. The inside is very clean and modern with A/C! The patio looked lovely with lots of plants overlooking the River. The bathroom was probably one of the nicest I'd used outside the resort. Can't wait to come back one day! I loved the owner and her family's story. Truly a great experience dining here read more

Wow!! Amazing amazing. What a gem. Great departure from other restaurants in PV. Service was a little slow but the food and hospitality made up for it. Love! read more

Sorry Bonito Kitchen, the dining experience was dreadful. There were four of us. We ordered. Our orders came out one at a time which meant three of us watched one person eat.This happened four times. Not a good dining experience. We liked the food but the way it was served was not pleasing. When Bonito Kitchen starts serving like a restaurant we will return. Until then adios. read more

Stopped in for breakfast was very pleasantly surprised! Very small menu but that seems very common in these times. Service was excellent! read more

Food was delicious!! Every dish I had was flavorful and cooked well. The ambience was excellent!

I was in town celebrating my Dad's 90th on a rainy evening. This charming little spot is located just on the river with seating on their patio and enough room for a larger party inside. We ordered the cauliflower Bao, rice ball, vegan ramen, cheese lumpia and potstickers. Every single dish was perfect. The cauliflower was delicately breaded with just enough sauce without it becoming overly soggy. We lathered the rice ball with the Szechuan sauce they had on the table- delish ! The rest of the dishes were equally as good and proportionate in size.My sister in law who recently moved from Shanghai was impressed with the sauces that accompanied the meals. What a surprise to us that we could find amazing Asian food in Vallarta. Great job to the fabulous staff that helped us with the menu and the owner who stopped by my table to wish my father a happy birthday ! read more
