You have to pluck a third of the meat with your fingers just to get the tortilla to structurally hold. There is always a line. On a random Tuesday it stretched down the street long before the door opened. I waited twenty five minutes at four in the afternoon for a seat inside. No to go orders, no doggy bags. You eat what you order and leave behind your self respect. The dining room is packed tighter than a turtle's pecker. A dozen staff members move around each other like bees tending the hive, the rhythm wild and relentless. The tacos themselves are intimidatingly large, the vibe unlike anything I have ever seen. Come for the al pastor, and come hungry. If you cannot finish, no option exists but to weep over the abandoned morsels.

It's thicker, more cheesy than what I've ever had before and very delicious. We paired that with the prime rib tacos, it was a plate stacked with meat and 4 tortillas under it, more than we could eat. The seasoning was great, it was diced so small that it was easy to eat. I got a virgin strawberry margarita, the wife got a coke. It was very affordable.

Here's a stronger, balanced version that includes those details while keeping the review credible:…read more I was honestly surprised to see this place rated so highly because our experience was pretty disappointing. We ordered the ribeye, al pastor, and chorizo tacos. The ribeye had so much fat that we had to pick through it just to eat it. The al pastor was very average - I've had much better at plenty of other taco spots. The biggest disappointment was the chorizo. It wasn't traditional chorizo at all; it looked and tasted more like chopped-up hot dogs. We barely touched it because it wasn't what we ordered expecting, and it just wasn't good. The presentation also wasn't appealing. The meat was simply piled on top of two tortillas, making everything messy and difficult to eat. They were also pretty stingy with the grilled jalapeños. The salsas didn't do the food any favors either. None of them really stood out, and the green guacamole salsa actually tasted like it had gone bad, so we stopped eating it. Service was attentive, but almost too attentive. Staff kept coming by every few minutes to ask if we were finished or if we needed anything. While I appreciate good service, it made us feel like we were being rushed through our meal instead of being able to enjoy it at our own pace. Overall, I don't understand the high ratings based on our experience. With so many amazing taco spots in Puerto Vallarta, this one didn't come close to meeting the hype. Unfortunately, we won't be coming back.

My appetizers were very good, but not outstanding. However, the "Chef's Specialties" tasted underwhelming to me (crab meat enchiladas). The flavor appeared to be lacking. However, the grilled chicken was tasty. I was disappointed that, although we ordered regular margaritas, we were served their premium priced margaritas (MX$145), which I only discovered upon receiving the check. Because this price is moderate by US standards, I did not bother to contest it; however, this negatively affected an otherwise pleasant dining experience. Considering the other (better) dining choices available (especially with Qulture being so close by), I doubt I will be returning.

He suggested a bunch of signature dishes that could be served family style so that we could more easily divide the bill but also make sure we all got to taste different things. Service was excellent. I am so sad to see this restaurant is closing. There were many more dishes we enjoyed, all excellent, that I cannot name because the menu is no longer available online. See pictures. Guacamole & Salsa: made right at the table side. Both dips and chips were super yummy so we ordered several refills. Duck Tacos: amazing. shredded duck meat on a blue corn tostado Shrimp Ceviche: amazing. Large portion, just overall great. I certainly hope the restaurant reopens sooner than Yelp indicates.

They have an ever changing tasting menu that caters to the season in which it is in. None of the items are bad. A restaurant like this would be several hundreds of dollars if you visited in the states. The service is beyond kind and understanding with the language barrier. If the weather is nice I highly recommend sitting outside along the river. It's incredibly romantic. Please visit this restaurant if you are reading this. You won't regret it!
