Portions were huge... so much food that even Coco got a little sample. I've been around, and honestly, if this place were in Scottsdale, it would be packed every night and charging double the price. Incredible value, amazing staff, and consistently great food. One of my favorite spots in Mexico without question.

So, my wife had 3 pork and I had 3 vegan ones and oh, my how good were these!! The wraps are super thin and cooked to perfection, the filling is wonderful, and I'll die on the hill that this was the best vegan dumpling/gyoza I've ever had......and it was in Mexico!!

Bar La Playa is a MUST first-stop when visiting Zona Romantica…read more On our most recent trip to Puerto Vallarta, we wanted to spend a day in this part of the region. After looking up good places to go, Bar La Playa came up- and I'm sure glad it did! First, it's easy to get to if you're coming from North. Our Uber was easily able to drop us off without getting stuck in gridlock traffic that can affect certain roads of this area. Additionally, the location isn't a high-traffic area for tourists. That meant we were able to walk up and immediately find seats. Second, the service was top notch. I didn't get the bartenders name, but he was very welcoming, friendly, hospitable and spoke English. Just an overall cool dude and was glad to support his business. Third, the drinks were great. Finally, we were drinking 'real' drinks, not the watered down sugary stuff at the hotel. We were very satisfied with the taste of the drinks. Fourth, the prices are really good. Mexico has gotten expensive and this was a sigh of relief. You can have a great time here without feeling like you paid an arm and a leg. I highly-highly recommend making Bar La Playa your first stop when coming to this area. You're going to get great service, great drinks and all at a price that is reasonable and fair.

Super cool spot - love the open roof. It can definitely get a little loud with the music, so just something to keep in mind depending on what you are looking for. It's definitely the best spot for great cocktails in PV though. Pricier than some other bars, but better options for mixed drinks. Friendly, patiently staff who know their stuff, and for those who worry about this - staff spoke good English. We will definitely be back next time we visit PV!

El Colibri was highly rated and close by, so the group made our way. Very much tucked away, unassuming with awesome low-lighting, El Colibri was just what the dr ordered.

Would be awesome for a date night or just a good contrast to the party scene in the malecon. Add this to your bucket list of to-do's while in PV!

If you are looking for an Oakland/Temescal vibe in Sayulita, this is the place to be. We went twice and felt very well taken care of each time.

We came back to watch some music at night and met some fellow travelers who were also really great. Good vibes at this place are infectious. I don't drink and they made me a really excellent sandia mocktail. My wife had the aperol spritz and it was good and STRONG!

What a gem!…read more Autentico cuisine that goes back to the roots of mexican cooking, this was not what we expected to find on our way to Bucerias for groceries after our sunset surf sesh. And I say that in the most positive way! They offer seafood, fresh and locally caught. The meat is from the adjacent town as well, and there are vegetarian and vegan options. The prices were less than what you'll pay for the obnoxious haggling sea-side restaurants and you have an amazing ocean view from up above. We started with two appetizers: the 5 corn empanadas and aguachile verde. I ate the empanadas too fast to give you a visual but the boyfriend took one of the shrimp (aguachile verde). Beautiful presentation, and it tasted better than it looked! How is that possible? He ordered the fresh catch of the day, which was a mahi-mahi. I went out on a limb for the local chicken made into a mole, both delicious as well. so far everything was so good that we sprung for dessert, and opted for the churro with vanilla ice cream. It sounds like a simple dessert, but we knew they would do it better than standand we were not disappointed. Everything was amazing, I cannot say enough superlative things. You'll see the boisterous pink exterior on your left heading from Punta Mita or Sayulita back to Bucerias/PV. Driving from Bucerias, it's on your right and you'll pass it before you see it. Turn back around- we did, and it was a highlight of our trip.

This place no longer exists. We followed the map and walked up the hill but it's gone.read more
