Excellent service and the food is amazing. It was an overall pleasure experience and always enjoyable. Definitely recommend.

We made a reservation for 17 people and they were able to accommodate us through a phone call beforehand! The area is so nice and aesthetic. The menu is very interesting as it is an Asian fusion restaurant. I ordered two pork belly baos which was humongous and so good. For ramen and other soups they had a baby, regular, and supersize option which was really great as we all had different stomach room and reduced food waste. They also had chili oil and other seasoning and sauces on the table for us to use. We ordered bottled water which came in a fancy glass bottle which was cool. The service was really great as well! read more

Went to this place based on a recommendation from a local. And I'm sure glad that I did. It was a super cute asian fusion restaurant with a lot of different options. You could buy an array of dishes that were influenced by Japanese, Chinese, Vietnamese, etc. The dumplings were great - I even tried the pho dumplings. They were pretty good. The Baos looked Delicious that my friends ordered and the spring rolls were nice and fresh. Perfect for a hot and humid day. The staff was also nice and friendly and made wonderful suggestions. If you're in the area and you want Asian fusion this restaurant should be high on your list to consider. I mean where else can you find a taro donut for dessert. read more

This place popped up from my Yelp app, as a place they thought I would like. Well, Yelp was absolutely right about that. Tucked away on a side street, it's likely I never would have found it on my own. I had the Pork Belly dumplings and also the Kim Chi Rice, and both were amazing. We also had the Pork Belly Ramen which was equally delicious. The place was decorated very nicely with an outdoor garden area. Our waiter was polite, prompt, and very helpful. We will definitely be coming back again and again. The menu had so many wonderful offers that were begging me to sample. 5 Stars for sure!! read more

We stopped in after spending all day at the La Isla Shopping Village. This was truly a treat. Being from Seattle we have no lack of Asian cuisine so finding Bonito Kitchen was a joy made in Puerto Vallarta heaven! Bonito has pleasant blend of Vietnamese, Japanese & Korean cuisine with fantastic taste and presentation. Let me not forget the service was stellar. Drinks were made to perfection. In ways, I felt like I was back in Tokyo with having my miso ramen. I hope I time to drop back in. Thank you. read more

Nice, neat, busy restaurant. Nice menu with decent variety of foods. Cocktail menu was interesting and has several tasty options. I had one of the spicier ramen dishes. It wasn't 'hot' ( if you're a Scoville Adventurer ) but had good flavor. My Mojito was great. read more

My favorite restaurant in Puerto Vallarta hands down. Please do yourself a favor and visit - the owner is kind and very hospitable! Everything I and my friends had was amazing - but these are the musts: Steamed shrimp dumplings. These little packages of goodness...I could eat multiple orders myself. Pork belly bao. The steamed buns are soft and sweet, the pork belly is tantalizingly soft and firm, the homemade pickles and the barbecue sauce. I can't say enough about these. Lastly, the kimchi fried rice. Crispy little bits of rice, the perfect amount of kimchi heat, a tidbit of charred pineapple every now and then, and you can add pork belly or shrimp to it. I wish I was here longer so I could try everything on the menu. I did order the Thursday special wonton soup and it was sooo good. Do yourself a favor and eat here! May want to call for reservations as the word is out this place is tasty! read more

Excellent food and staffs are super nice. Great menu selection for everyone within the family.

The garden patio dining area was small but beautiful under a gorgeous hanging vine arbor with pretty purple flowers. Cocktails were hand crafted, artfully presented, and tasty. I had a vodka lemonade with fresh passion fruit. Very refreshing. Appetizers - Our group of 4 started with a handful of appetizers. Everything came out of the kitchen hot. Although everything was enjoyable, the fried cauliflower with dipping sauces, cheese lumpia (sort of like a Japanese mozzarella stick) and takoyaki were my favorite. Main course- We ate family style and shared the biang biang spicy noodles, kimchi rice, pork belly bao buns, fried chicken bao buns and a brisket ramen. The noodles and rice were underwhelming. I wish there were more vegetables and the flavor profiles were similar (both "kimchi like"). The winners were the bao buns. An absolute must if dining here. Overall the the food and drink were a nice flavorful Asian alternative to typical Puerto Vallartan fare. Reasonably priced as well. However, service was sporadic and at times downright lacking. The restaurant was not busy when we went but it took a long time for our server to take our order and bring our drinks. They also did not check in to see if we needed anything or ask how our meal was. Wish the staff was more attentive to their diners. read more

The food and the service were incredible The shrimp gyoza was excellent and the pork dumplings were heavinly We tried the Korean ribs . Great and the fried rice (spicy) Great atmosphere too read more

I'm in love with Bonito Kitchen's flavor! My husband and I have been to this location several times. It's always been consistent. Our favorite dish is the Kim Chi fried rice with chosu. It is ridiculously good. Close second goes to the green papaya salad. The drinks and service are very good as well. read more

We walked over and were too hot to try the ramen The steamed shrimp dumplings were delicious, delicate and presented very nicely. The other dishes were not as successful. The cucumber salad lacked flavor because they had not marinated enough. The Biang Biang Noodles were spicy and salty, but not all that flavorful. The Japchae was entirely disappointing. It was served hot rather than at room temperature and unlike the Korean ban chan, it had absolutely no flavor. I'd like to go back to try the ramen. read more

I will not eat there again or recommend. Very disappointed after hearing "how wonderful " their food was...friendly staff the little we saw them. Water glasses didn't get refilled, appetizers came out intermittently AND they missed two we ordered for our small group. One appetizer arrived after we finished our entree. Food quantity was poor to fairly good and everything in between. One entree arrived at least 15 minutes before the others...then after we all had finished they brought out another-duplicate of the first early entree. What a shit show! THE WORST PART WAS THAT THEY KNEW THEY HAD ISSUES AND NO ONE CAME OUT TO APOLOGIZE...except for the young guy serving us who was very nice! read more

We were here back in September and still have nightmares about eating Thai food. We were vacationing in Puerto Vallarta for 8 days, and half of that time, we were sick and afraid to leave our hotel room, needing to be close to a bathroom, after eating at Bonita kitchen. We were so afraid of getting on the plane to go home. We have never been so sick. Imagine the exorcist projectile throw up!! read more

I've eaten at a LOT of really good restaurants, and this is one of the best I've had the pleasure to try. This food is art without being pretentious. Approachable, innovative and above all delicious. I could not recommend it higher. Please come try this place, book a flight of you have to. You won't regret it. read more

Due to our extended stay in Puerto Vallarta, we thought we would give this place a try after reading the reviews as we have started to miss Asian food. We were told that we could only sit outside even though there were open tables inside. No big deal although it was very hot and humid to eat outside and ruined the experience even more. We ordered some appetizers and I will rate them below: Karaage 4/5 - this was over cooked. Takoyaki 4/5 - not bad, but the outside feels overcooked/over fried Summer roll 5/5 - this was actually good Now let me get to the main course: Ramen. The overall rating is 1/5. We ordered Tonkotsu Ramen and Tan Tan Ramen. Both were flavorless and bland. As soon as I saw the Tonkotsu Ramen come out I had a bad feeling - the broth is supposed to be rich and creamy but it looked clear like chicken broth. It also tasted very plain, as if the only thing they put in there was salt. I paid 60 pesos for extra chashu but there were only 4 small pieces of chashu TOTAL. Seriously?! As someone who was born and raised in Asia and have traveled and lived all over the world (including Japan), this was by far the worst ramen I have ever tasted. It is nowhere close to the real thing. I gave one star for the noodle as the texture was on point, however it was plain as well and not what you are supposed to use in this type of ramen. The bill was not cheap, and the food was definitely not worth it. Instant ramen will taste better than this.I am very disappointed and cannot recommend this place at all. read more

Ok so, let's talk about the food here. Now, I went and tried the Saturday Pho special. It was amazing and I loved the brisket! For dessert I had the ice cream sundae. It was very big, but very good. We went to this restaurant at about 7 o'clock, we sat outside. It was lit up, not too bright, but not too dark, it was perfect. The service was good. Everything was very nice. I really recommend going here!! read more

After a week in PV, we wanted something different. This place was delicious. The drinks were great! I had a lychee martini and my husband had the blueberry and passion fruit mojito.

Excellent Asian cuisine. Since moving here 4 years ago we've searched for a top Asian restaurant. Well we found it here. Versailles is like a giant four star restaurant row, but actually a city. The menu of Bonito Kitchen is diverse, the servings plentiful and the service excellent. I understand they serve a special soup on Saturday. read more

Great food. Great drinks. Good customer service. Not much to complain about. The location near Fluvial is better I think.

Came here on New Year's Eve, there was no wait and the wait staff was prompt in getting our drink and food orders, menu was well thought out and easy to understand, the food was both tasty and fresh, was recommended by the front desk clerk at our hostel and we are glad we made the drive. We had the pork belly bao and it came out first which was great! Then we shared the sampler which was fun to try without having too much of one thing, and then we each got a ramen, I got the miso in a small and it was good flavor but maybe could have used a lil more spice or something, overall the meal was good and easy and fresh. 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

I wasn't sure if the place was open and was craving Pho. I showed up and they're open. Unfortunately they only serve Pho on Saturdays but they had several other appetizing things on their menu including ramen. I had the kimchi fried rice with pineapple and pork belly, the pho dumplings, the Siamese egg rolls, and the bao with pork belly. Wow! I left full and boxed up leftovers. I was about to open up the to go in my Uber. I'm coming back before I leave town! read more

People toss around the word "fusion" all over but a Bonito Kitchen it lands just right. A neo Vietnamese with touches of Mexico run by a cool New Yorker. The music is, straight from the city, can't go wrong with a little funkadelic. The flavors are clean and crisp like Vietnamese food should be. You'll find a little Japanese and a touch of Korean with all theses little subdued added Mexican flavors. Lots of mini dishes and very well put together cocktails... The setting is simple but nice, nice patio, inside was a little echoey or the very happy customers were just celebrating something amazing... Very good restaurant. read more

Everything on the menu is a great choice including the craft cocktails! Great staff and timely service. One of our favorite places.

Listen up. If you like Pho, you gotta stop here. The broth is amazing. Inside you will find meatball, flank and some other goodies for you to try. At the top is the mouth watering Donburi rice bowl. Great portion of chashu on a bed of pineapple kimchi. So good. Do yourself a favor and try it. read more

OMG this place is ridiculous. Ridiculously delish!!! Blue lavender cocktail, to die for, miso ramen, don't even get me started! The ambiance is magic with a ceiling made of vines and the smell of frying garlic filling the air. So so recommend this place! read more

I was happy when I saw the buns in the menu. So we really made our way going there. We reached there around 7:40pm in the restaurant. We were seated fast, but he didn't ask us if we wanted to sit down outside or inside. Because I wanted to sit down outside, sad! Then, we know what to order right away so we told the server what we want. Then, got our drinks in 5 minutes it's the Jalisco martini, and Thai iced tea but the food, it takes 45 minutes at least to have them in our table. I'm not kidding, we just ordered the soy garlic chicken, spring rolls, onigiri, chicken and pork bun, cheese lumpia. It's a little bit disappointing but life goes on. We paid around 800 to 900mxn peso for all of it. The bun that I was drooling for was a little bit disappointing. But their chicken was really nice and the onigiri too. read more

I ate at their new location that just opened on the Rio Cuale. It was one of the best meals I've had in Puerto Vallarta. The soft shell crab in green curry was divine. They had JUST opened the restaurant, so the service was a tad slow, but the staff were so kind to comp a glass of wine and AMAZING dessert! Try the chocolate cake with red wine. They have an extensive menu. I will definitely be going back soon. read more

We had a wonderful meal last night! Amazingly fresh and delicious drinks, special Mother's Day sample platter of deliciousness and dessert that was a refreshing end to the meal. The restaurant was easy to get to and nicely decorated. We ate in the garden area which was fun! Highly recommend a meal there! read more
