They went all out for Valentine's Day! I loved it! The contrast of the red roses on the floor in the shape of a heart with their white decor made for very nice photo opportunities. I loved that there was a live musician. She started on the piano and switched to the saxophone and walked among the tables playing classical love songs. This alternated with a DJ who would also make the disco ball light up the room. Such a cool ambiance with high ceilings and warm welcome. Random thought before I get into the food and service...something we need in America are bag stands for our purses. My duck dish was ok, it was a little overcooked because it was chewy but I still enjoyed the flavors. My boyfriend's dish was the short rib, which was so good, the tortillas came out piping hot in a cylinder container. We got creme brulee which had a hint of coffee. Oh! The oysters were tasty, especially with the negro anchochile sauce. I want that on all seafood! We got a bottle of delicious red wine to enjoy with everything. Staff were super attentive, smiling, answered all of our questions and were friendly. They were polite as I tried my Spanish. Bathroom was clean. I'm not sure about parking as we took an Uber. read more

We came here to celebrate my cousin's bachelorette before going out and had a great experience. Because we were there for a bachelorette we got to order from a special 4 course meal that came with salad, soup, pasta or fish, and dessert. The service was great and the staff were so attentive. They even have a staff at the entrance that is happy to take your photos before seating you. I only took a star away because with the pasta option you can not add protein and as a pasta lover this was one of the most delicious pastas I've had, but it did hurt to have a full dinner with no protein. The sopa de nada and the pasta were the star of the show !! read more

Food: 5 Customer Service: 5 Ambience: 5 Cleanliness: 5 Reservations: NA This restaurant is situated right next to Hotel Mia Vallarta. An innovative Spanish-inflected cuisine with local produce in a whimsical all-white space, plus a bar. The decor is unique as it's all-white and is a stunning mix of luxury, and modernity. We were able to get a table for dinner without a reservation, while we were visiting the Puerto Vallarta area on vacation recently. The cocktail I ordered was the Marea Roja, and was exceptional. The mixologist came to our table with a cart, and makes your cocktail in front of you. The menu offers a wide variety of delicious and mouthwatering starters and main courses that will appeal to everyone. I ordered their cha-cha-chamorro and a ribeye steak. Both of our entrees were seasoned very well, and we truly enjoyed everything we ordered as they were all exquisite. Everything we ate was fresh and delicious. The chefs use the best quality ingredients to produce dishes that are simply delightful. The restaurant also offers a wonderful drink menu, and they offer one of the best wines in the region. The drinks are pricey but surely worth sampling. @noirvedanaturals read more

Leche in Puerto Vallarta delivers a truly elevated dining experience. The minimalist all-white aesthetic is striking, the service is attentive, and the overall atmosphere feels curated and intentional. That said, this is a place with a certain reputation that precedes it--one that adds a layer of intensity you don't typically find in most restaurants. Depending on your perspective, that can either make the experience feel exclusive and intriguing... or slightly unsettling. Regardless, the food, presentation, and ambiance are undeniably top-tier. Leche stands out not just for its culinary quality, but for the unique energy that surrounds it. If you're looking for something beyond the ordinary dining experience in Puerto Vallarta, this is definitely a place that leaves an impression. There's an unmistakable aura of power and discretion here one that suggests not every story is meant to be told, and not every guest comes to simply dine. read more

Such a cool experience! This was on our list of restaurants we wanted to try on our trip to Puerto Vallarta. The service the whole time was incredible! Starting with table side cocktails, I ordered the blackberry lychee drink. It was so refreshing after a long day in the sun. The summer cocktail was also delicious! For the meal, I started with sopa de nada. Don't miss out on trying this! The portion was huge and the flavor was perfect. I loved the chili oil added to it. For my entrée, I ordered the fettuccine and clams. The black noodles as always a nice touch. Everything was super fresh tasting. Half way through our meal, a DJ started playing and the whole restaurants vibe changed. There were lights reflecting on the walls. A really fun experience to try if you're visiting PV! read more

This place was esthetically pleasing. Everything is white. Thus the name, La Leche. It's so beautiful here. The service is amazing! The food came out super fast and they kept on refilling our water even without us asking- is always a plus for me. The food was amazing! We had the set 7 course tasting menu as well as other dishes on the menu. The tasting menu was great bec we were able to taste a little of everything. We also had the dessert sampler and it did not disappoint. Price wise, it's reasonably priced for a high end restaurant. Loved this place! We came here to celebrate our 20th wedding anniversary and they surprised us with shots! Non alcoholic for the kids- and tequila for the adults! The best! read more

Decorated all-white such that the entire space acts as a canvas for projections from the DJ booth LA LECHE Almacén Gourmet seeks to "reinterpret culinary tradition in an irreverent way," and from tableside mixology to the Food itself flavors are sharp while service is efficient and friendly. Undoubtedly targeting a young and affluent clientele in the Hotel Zone, though the menu does not skimp on technique for the #gram, La Leche uses local Produce to build complex plates including grilled Octopus with Corn and Cotija or exceptional braised Mushrooms filled with Snails in earthy Cream Sauce. Fun for all ages, a children's menu offering Tacos similar to the "Taco de New York" for an adjacent birthday celebration, Entrees such as the Cazuela take a traditional approach as does Confit Duck with Vegetables and Mole Sauce. Not a place to skip Dessert, all three channeling the season and environment, fans of Cornbread will surely be wowed by Tres Leches Corn Pie though the Rice Pudding channeling Creme Brulee and Pepitas Cheesecake are no less delicious. read more

My friends and I went for our joint 60th bday celebration. One of our friends has been there before and it sounded very cool. All white decor. The staff was super friendly and during our surprise birthday dessert the host took a great video of it. On that note it is a great place to celebrate something special and fun! If you like loud, thumping music during dinner than this place is definitely for you. Don't expect a romantic dinner. I'm pretty sure it's a place for the young 30 something see or be seen crowd. The drinks were really awesome and made from scratch. The food was definitely top notch. I got the octopus and thought it was grilled to perfection. The sauce was delicious too. You also need to stop in the bathroom to take a photo of yourself in the milk carton. It is not a place to bring young children. Oh and don't forget to dress in white. read more

El peor rib eye que he comido en mi vida. La pasta de camaron olia raro, como a parmesano viejo. Agresivamente mala la comida y cara.

We went with group of friends everything was amazing but they definitely did us wrong when it came to our group receipt. First off he never asked if we would pay separately and second waiter overcharge on a so called bottle of wine times two. We saw that and the waiter argued that we ordered it and yet it wasn't even in our table. He also asked for more tip! We paid his tip in cash from all three couples yet he was very rude and ungrateful as he was asking for more. So the experience on his end made it seem like it was on us since everyone else in the restaurant seemed to only stick with appetizers and refreshments like water. So the audacity on his end to figure out that yeah we spent more in your restaurant then most of your guest that were likely requesting more service attention than us. He only came in for our order and served it but other than the dessert follow up and the bill at the end. My husband had to refill my wine it wasn't the waiter nor refilling my water. I get more attention in Europe than what he served us. Plus the fishy part was our waiter was a guy and our receipt shows Alezzandra and we have no clue who that was. The gentleman showed no sign of being anything else. This place requires for you to be aware of your receipt. Keep track of what you order because the kid definitely took advantage of us. We were not rude and they can check the cameras. We were only reassuring him that we didn't make some of those orders. This place is trendy and the ambiance is very millennial you would think by now they'd have the order available to keep track of each couple. We didn't mind but it is super easy when your server separates the order had the kid done that he would have earned an additional tip. He didn't go above and beyond to be requesting a 35% tip. He really assumed we were from So. Cal. and we were speaking Spanish all night. Who knows. Rating is a 4/5 for food this rating is really based on our experience. read more

Elevated Mexican Cuisine. I come back every time I'm in Puerto Vallarta. The aesthetics are EVERYTHING and the food and cocktails are just as good.

Take iconic pictures with their white walls. read more

I wasn't planning to leave a review since I try to avoid writing really negative ones, but given that this place already has a 3.9 rating, I doubt it will make much of a difference. This was, without exaggeration, the worst meal I have ever had in my life. I didn't even know bad duck was a thing until now. The octopus? Hands down the worst dish I've ever eaten--and I love octopus. As for the short rib, it wasn't even short rib; it felt more like something you'd throw in a taco. To top it off, when our Uber driver picked us up, he asked what we thought. We told him the truth, and he basically agreed, saying it's just an Instagram spot. I will forever remember this as the worst meal I've ever had. Hopefully, this review spares others from experiencing it. Go to Outback, McDonalds, Dominoes. Literally anywhere but here. read more

The place is decorated all white fitting for the name, La Leche. We arrived and seated as soon as our entire party arrived. We ordered a LOT. Duck, Octopus, snails, and a few salads (not enough vegetables on the menu... as a vegetarian I had a difficult time ordering). The non vegetarians loved the rich food and said, it was was all amazing! They had a DJ playing GREAT music (Christmas) but the music is a little loud making it impossible to have a conversation. The decor is amazing so take pictures! We ordered "ice cream" for dessert but we have NO IDEA what it was since it was served, warm. I didn't finish mine) read more

My bestie booked us dinner at La Leche on our annual trip to Puerto Vallarta. I wasn't sure where we going or what to expect. He told me this was an Insta famous restaurant and I should not expect much. When we first walked in they asked if we wanted pictures in one of the many IG ready moments. We were seated near a stage and loved the fact that live music began shortly after we were seated. Our service was incredible. I ordered an asparagus salad to begin the night and OMG!!! it was the best thing I ate on the entire trip! No joke! We raved about our salads for the rest of our trip and it is something I talk about whenever I talk about my trip. When we return for our annual trip we will be heading back to La Leche! It is amazing to find a place with such high quality food and service and has a really wonderful vibe. read more

RUN Don't Walk To THIS place. We came twice, and it was great. Octopus great shrimp great Margaritas, you get it

This is one of the most beautiful and sexy restaurants in PV... the ambiance is a perfect 10, the service is exquisite and on point, a solid 10!!! I absolutely love this place and wish them all the best but... the food... ‍ I'm not a food snob, at all... but I was so disappointed from the chewy oysters to the dry ribs... and the cha cha... I wanted it to be good... so bad... if you guys could get the food decadent you could have the number one restaurant in all of Puerto Vallarta. I would highly suggest sending your chefs to NUMOH or Cafe Des Artistes to experience decadent food that you can't help but close your eyes and savor when you eat. For those giving this restaurant 5 stars... you're not basing it on food quality... you like the ambiance... and that's okay! read more

Last night in town and I decided to try La Leche as it was suggested to us by a local. I must say I am severely disappointed. First of all the menu is kind of bizarre - I am not sure exactly what La Leche is hoping to accomplish but if I wasn't here with family I would have walked out. Service has been absolutely dismal, which was completely unexpected. We started with a green bean and spinach salad with was pretty tasty. We were given a complimentary tuna pate with crostini, no one had any idea what it was until we asked the waitress again. There is definitely a language barrier with the waitstaff which normally isn't an issue being that I speak Spanish however it was tonight, but the bigger issue is that the music is so loud that I can't hear the people next to me, let alone the wait staff. I ordered the lobster - which ends up being almost 115 USD, I can't say that I am impressed by the texture, it's actually crunchy which to me means that it is severely overcooked... Huge sure, but crunchy and overcooked. I am less than impressed. My family seems to enjoy their meals (also the lobster as well as the seafood ravioli). The seafood ravioli is lackluster, it actually has some shell inside the ravioli filling. Waitstaff never did come over to check on how the food was either. I even did the classic "x" with the fork and knife to signal that the dish was bad and no one said anything to me. Severely disappointing. My family members were never offered another drink, my partner asked for one and it's been over 20 minutes that he's been waiting for the one that he ordered. My mother has to flag someone down to get a glass of wine. Do yourself a favor and skip this dumpster fire and go to La Madalena where your business will actually be appreciated. read more

La leche turned into sour milk. The place looks Uber cool but fell very short on food and service. Our bad experience started when they seated us in the back room by the busboy area. We ordered drinks and tried to forget about our terrible location while the waitresses and busboys rushed past our table to put dishes away. The drinks had zero alcohol, they looked beautiful tho. We ordered our food. The artichoke dish was delicious it was the only good thing we ate. My daughter's hamburger arrived 30 minutes before our food arrived and they had cleared her plate before we received our food. My fish was warm on way to cold but the potatoes were steaming. My husbands ribeye was barely warm and 75% fat. The 5 ozs of meat was good but lukewarm. The timing in the kitchen was very off. The waiter asked about our food and we let him know it was not warm and there was no effort to rectify the situation. If you enjoy weak drinks and cold food that isn't timed correctly then go, otherwise spare yourself the expense bc it's not cheap. Sorry for the bad review I don't enjoy writing a bad review but this one is deserved. read more

In puerto Vallarta and looking for a place to celebrate your bachelor or bachelorette dinner? This is the place to go!! I came here for my friend's bachelorette and was pleasantly surprised. The ambiance is a 20 out of 10!! This place is instagram worthy with a DJ and all white decor everywhere!! Disco ball with lights and sparklers for your friend's event. The chef provided us with a complimentary tuna paste app. I ordered a Martini which was delicious. They even have my friend a veil and t-shirt!! The service was absolutely excellent. And the OYSTERS were the best appetizer going....they were HUGE and tasted amazing. read more

El lugar esa bien. Caro y sobrevaluado. Me intoxique. El chamorro de rez me dio chorro

Ran into this place without knowing anything but it's famous lol. We got the combo without wine. Omakase style. Every dish looks pretty small but I still got pretty full at the end of it( I don't eat much). 5/5. I like the strawberry sauce with oyster the most. Taste bit more sweet and refreshing than regular tomato salsa. 4/5. The soup was nice too, hot and creamy but not too heavy, stood a good combo with toasted bread they served. The fishes are just fine to me. 3/5. Tuna doesn't taste really smooth, it definitely looks nice but the sauce was not well blended, so it's either too salty or sweet for some parts. 3/5. And the other fish (catch of the day) just tastes dry even with sauce. 4.5/5. Corn Tortilla of the taco was soft, hot and balanced with the spicy of jalapeño and the saltiness of the pork perfectly along with the zucchini. 5/5. The potato in the duck was sliced and stuffed together like a lady M cheese cake. Love it. The sause was very creamy and put everything together 4/5. Cheese cake. Love the caramel jelly. The sunflower seeds and the sauce. But the cheese cake itself is kinda powdery instead of creamy like regular cheese cakes, which I don't prefer. I don't think I need to say anything about the decor and the service considering the price of it. Which is what you mostly pay for. Will recommend this place if you got some occasions and wanna make the moment special. read more

Overall experience was good to slightly above average. Service was good and gave us space to enjoy each item along the way. Ambiance was quiet and reserved. Music was playing but softly with the great light show that plays against the white backdrop. Cocktails were great and we would go back to share a drink and skip the food. Food was ok. We had the shrimp and mussels in red sauce which was good but for an entree was relatively small but a nice start to the meal. Both bread appetizers they brought out (tuna and garlic butter) were awful. They also brought them out without asking and then we were charged 85 pesos at the end for "bread". Not cool and not worth any amount of money. We got the steak taco appetizer and the pork ribs for our meals. Pork ribs were phenomenal but the potatoes and corn that came with it were both inedible. The steak tacos were the most flavorless tacos in all of Mexico. Not even salt on there. I tried to drown them in the red sauce they provided and added the hot peppers and still was lacking in flavor. Meat was chewy and unseasoned. For dessert we shared the chocolate ganache and it was the highlight of the meal. Decadent and rich but with good balance. Come for cocktails and dessert and skip the extremely overpriced food and get real Mexican food elsewhere. In total we spent 3700 MX or $200 USD for the two of us. It was cool to try once but will try other options in PV rather than returning. read more

I've been here three times. The first time, six of us went here not only because of the news attention from the kidnapping of Chapo's son(s), but also because it appeared to be one of the best restaurants in Vallarta based on my research. It did not disappoint. My first time was on a Sunday and the place was pretty dead around 8:00. Turns out it wasn't tourist season (October-April timeframe) so perhaps that's why. The next two times the place was maybe half full. Every time I've been here I've gotten the chef's tasing menu with wine pairing. They won't offer this, so you have to be prepared to ask for it. The last time I went, they charged $1350 MXN (about $75 US) for the tasting with the pairing. Totally worth every peso, or penny, depending on your conversion. The tasting menu is a random compilation of 7 regular menu items they choose to pull from the chalkboard menu. They ask if you have any allergies; if you want to complicate things, go for it. By course 4 or 5, I usually start to fill up, but always manage to plow through. The service is on the money. The food is beautifully-plated, well-portioned and delicious. The ambiance is truly unique. Highly recommend you and your dining partner(s) stop for a photo op before you eat. If you order the tasting menu and wait until after dinner, you'll surely appear bloated. read more

OK for starters I wanted to give 4.5 not a 5 but due to whole rating system went higher rather than lower, since I definitely don't think they are a 3.9. We were a party of 6 in town for my nieces wedding. I walked by this place at 10 something pm mid-week and it was packed, so I figured had to try it the night we were didn't have engagements. Tip get reservations early, I was lucky to have our concierge pull some string, like the other one was told they were booked, but the new guy physically walked down and made it happen for a Saturday night. They got us in a few hours later, right as they opened and started to fill. Service and presentation were a 5, I am not rich but have eaten at the high end places in Irvine, Newport Beach and locally in HB. Service was right up there is not better than some like Morton's, Maestros, or other high end places, but equally maybe for some over the top. They will mix or pour your cocktail or soda table side, nice but not needed. Let me say there are a lot of touches to the table, so there was never any waiting for someone if anything was needed. The food was fantastically presented (5 on all food ordered), but somethings aren't for all pallets. It could be a country spice difference or just the way it is. I think of dipping sauces at some Japanese restaurants. My point, I don't do oysters, but others in the party did. They loved the fresh oysters and one of the sauces it came with but it was a universal "no" on the other. I read one review and basically heard the same from my mom, so avoid the duck. Mom did enjoy the meal but afterwards made comments similar to another review, it almost looked like a Cornish hen thigh/leg vs duck (if you ask me). My wife and another daughter had the cauliflower steak and it was beautiful and they loved it. I went with the rib eye, it was very good not great (4.5) but that was just due to...I suspect they sous-vide the steak so it was cooked to the right temp and tender and nicely seasoned but could have been seared darker. My daughter had the same and it was perfectly done. We had a great dinner with cocktails and the ambience is very nice as well. We then split a Creme Brulee (I'm picky and they have a very good one) and the chocolate cake (or what ever the chocolate item was called) with some cappuccinos and coffees (really good coffee). This would have been a rather large bill in the states and especially with all the top shelf cocktails. The total was easily 1/2 of what it would have cost in the states. Home run in every category, no, but for the fine dining experience with beautifully plated food and tasty with exception of the 2 things mentioned, it is worth the experience and price. read more

If I could give this place 10 or even 100 stars, I definitely would. Going here was one of the highlights of my trip to Puerto Vallarta. The food was absolutely amazing! We had the "ostiones con crema" which were absolutely delicious - I had never had anything like it. For my main dish, I had the "cola de sirena" which was a huge piece of lobster tail served with asparagus and a risotto which definitely activated the umami taste buds. The lobster tail was astounding. It was very well prepared and had seasonings other than just butter that really brought out the flavor of the lobster. It was also very refreshing to get a good quality lobster tail because I've never gotten a lobster tail that big or that great, in the United States. They offered me a surf and turf option for that dish. However, I decided to opt out of it since it would have been too much food but that is an option, as well :) It was a little pricey but definitely worth it for the quality of food and service that we received. The staff was very welcoming and helpful and the delivery time for our food was on point! Despite my limited Spanish vocabulary and awkwardness when speaking it, the staff made us feel very welcomed and went above and beyond to give us an exceptional dinning experience. One thing I do regret is not looking up the place prior to going and dressing a little nicer. I showed up in jeans and a tank top. It's definitely a trendy place to eat with a perfect ambiance for a fun date night. I really liked the all white aesthetic of the place and the disco ball in the middle of the restaurant. The restaurant opens at 6 but I recommend getting there maybe an hour or two after opening. We went on a Monday night and got there around 6:30 or 7 but a DJ began to play towards the end of our meal. The music was awesome! So, I would have liked to stay and enjoy that a bit more. Till next time! read more
