    Wow! Pajaritos was some of the best food we had in PV. Standouts were the bacon-wrapped shrimp tacos and the guacamole! Amazing, plus the margaritas were excellent. Great service and cozy, clean, and delicious ambiance. Go here!

    Shrimp wrapped in bacon

    What luck finding this place! It is tucked at the back of a fairly quiet neighborhood that dead ends at Rio Cuale. Service is attentive and kind. The server will check in on you to see if you want to order extra food and drinks, and to bring you fresh pineapples in the middle of your meal. Lovely. The space is wide open (great for groups) and a bit dark and humid, but there are a couple of ceiling fans. And you have the option of sitting at the bar or in the restaurant, which also has a small courtyard. Overall feel is very chill. It does not seem to draw many travelers, but mostly local folks. Menu items include mixed seafood in broth; fish soup; crab served a number of different ways; fish and shrimp served in butter, garlic, grilled, devil style, breaded, etc.; fish and chrimp ceviche; fish, shrimp, octopus and sea snail tostadas; and tacos, including fish, shrimp, crabmeat and octopus. Apparently, Pajaritos offers holiday meals -- Christmas is especially popular. Looks like it's the team's. favorite holiday, too. The decorations were still up. They also cater during large events, like weddings and birthdays. And big surprise -- the fish and shrimp in the tacos are wrapped in bacon. That is not described on the menu, so be attentive. The bacon lended a bit of a smoky flavor and slight crunch. Hadn't experienced that in a taco, but enjoyed the flavor. Surprise, surprise. And the margaritas are flavorful and stiff. Thankfully they were served in these tiny glasses. I'm not even kidding, folks. Pace yourself here. Kudos, Pajaritos. I hope we will meet again.

    We came here for dinner last night and while the service was very friendly, I would stick to the shrimp. We ordered steamed crab tacos (wasn't a fan of the seasoning), devil crab (not spicy but kind of a sweet tomato-y sauce that I wasn't a fan of. Plus the meat melted in my mouth which I'm not sure if that's a good thing?), seafood meatballs in hot soup broth (best thing out of everything we ordered. The octopus was so tender and the broth was so flavorful) and shrimp ajilio (shrimp was good). Service was very friendly and good! They even provided a complimentary appetizer of a tortilla with beans.

My favorite was the Classic Tuna Montadito, lightly marinated chunks of fresh tuna served over a bed of avocado--so fresh and flavorful! The Green Aguachile was made of raw shrimp marinated in a mildly spicy green sauce; and the Crab Enchiladas were four rolled tortillas stuffed with shredded crab meat and topped with a rich, creamy chipotle cream sauce and avocado slices. For our entrees, the Romantica Fillet was a rare seared tuna filet served over avocado salad and sweet potato puree; the Los Muertos Fillet was mahi mahi topped with shrimp in a creamy red sauce, served with rice and sautéed vegetables; and the Olas Altas Fillet was mahi mahi topped with a mushroom sautee. Each of these entrees was fresh, delicious, and came at reasonable prices. On top of the good food, the service was super friendly and attentive as well!

However, as me and my friends (it was 4 of us) were leaving the restaurant, our waiter chased us down claiming we did not tip enough. Here's a note from my friend detailing more of what happened: "It was 150 pesos which is a little more than 10% of the total. In Mexico, 10% is completely customary, especially for tourist. Locals will give even less and typically leave only about 50 pesos. I don't know if he was expecting for us to give him more just because we're used to giving 15 or even 20% at a time but I always do at least 10. If it's one of the really nice restaurants where they take care of absolutely everything then I do get more than that but this was just a normal place And I did fold the bills because I clipped it into the checkbook, so there is a chance he thought it was just 50. But to flip out and say it's not enough that he deserves more or just to take it away is crazy in my opinion." We may return, but this really turned a perfect visit into a not so great one in the end. The 3/5 is for food and service, would've been 5/5 had we not been stopped as we were leaving for not "tipping enough".

On my return 2nd trip a week or so later-,the Sirenitos has overpowering batter - ruined the pulpo tacos. Maybe Panko breading better suited to delicate pulpo. Also Ordered the Bananeros. Tacos. Both 2 sets of 3sums. The 2nd set was uninteresting. Brought back as a to go box. The " 3rd time around is never as good as the first time". First trip in March had the bone marrow and Sirenitos and it was delicate less battering and the bone marrow well cooked. The service is consistent - not obtrusive. The bartender eye candy.

One of their most iconic dishes was El Kraken, a whole small octopus, grilled and served with potatoes and tzatziki. From the taco menu, the Tres con Todo were three "tuna al pastor" tacos made of cubes of tuna with pineapple, sprouts, radish, and creamy avocado on two fried tacos--creative, but nothing too outstanding flavorwise. We continued with the Pal'Mito salad, made of hearts of palm, sundried tomatoes, avocado, spinach, bacon, and seared tuna. The Churrasco de Salmon was a perfectly tender salmon filet topped with a cream sauce and served with plantain puree and grilled corn on the cob. Finally, the Pesca del Dia was a fillet of snapper topped with mussels in pesto sauce and served over plantain puree--super tasty, though the pesto definitely overwhelmed any other flavors in this dish. Overall, the food here was all delicious and beautifully plated. The flavors were bold, the prices reasonable, and the service was super friendly too!
