There were only two things in the salad table that were not vegan, otherwise everything was vegan. The staff was aware and helped us. Almost all of the dishes were outstanding. The black beans and refried beans - not spicy just perfectly cooked and seasoned. I went three times to have it with everything I tried. The protein, the salads, the tacos and tostadas were all outstanding. Some dishes as they were over over, new dishes were replaced making it harder for us to try everything. The food, the beverages all of it were very good. Simply home cooked type meals and reasonably priced. The staff was great and they cleaned up nicely. The inside is also very tidy. The stairs going up is a bit odd. Wish they took cards as well. All else this a very good restaurant that we are glad we tried.

I was honestly surprised to see this place rated so highly because our experience was pretty…read moredisappointing. 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.

Worth it. Traditional el pastor is on a rotisserie (charcoal fired which makes these the BEST) so you can watch them quickly slice the meat for the next taco. Service is great and fast. Every table gets a fresh array of homemade condiments and salsas: a mild soffitto, smoky pico, and a wicked spicy . All are amazing but the lip burning salsa was my go-to. Awesome place. Try it.

I went with the Chunky Monkey Smoothie Bowl - it was very rich, but delicious!! Probably the not healthiest item on the menu, but it was gluten-free (which I need), so I appreciated that they identified which items were GF. One thing you learn is that there is no such thing as a "quick" bite in PV - they take their time everywhere. I don't mind moving slower when on vacation, but when you have a plane to catch, it can be a bit frustrating. With that said, I would definitely return to try some other menu items when I am not in such a hurry. Overall rating: *****FIVE STARS***** Gluten-free rating: ****FOUR STARS****

I've been coming here for many years, and today was honestly the most disappointing experience I've…read moreever had--both in customer service and food quality. We came in on a Saturday about an hour before closing, ordered two burgers, several drinks, and my favorite cauliflower rings. My deep-fried mushroom burger arrived cold, with coleslaw sauce dripping all over it, and the chips that came with it were cold as well. The wings were so overwhelmingly vinegary that I couldn't eat them; I ended up peeling off the batter and just ate the boiled cauliflower. Even the ranch was extremely watery. Despite spending a good amount of money, the service didn't match. The waiter barely greeted us, was not attentive at all, and never checked in to ask if everything was okay. When I mentioned at the end that the food wasn't up to the usual standard, he just shrugged and did nothing about it. Sadly, after years of coming here, this might be my last visit. Very disappointing.

I mean, how does Chef Marco do it?!!! I couldn't believe the gluten free crust was actually gluten free - it was THAT good. Also tried the gluten free rigatoni pasta with pesto and bell peppers, as well as the regular rigatoni pasta with pesto & bell peppers. LOVED both. Usually our little toddler who is gluten free has to compromise on taste or quality, but not in this restaurant. When the Chef heard he was GF, he even prepared special GF bread out of GF pizza crust as an appetizer for the table (served along with pesto and balsamic glaze). In our 3 day stay in PV, we had 3 meals here -- lunch, dinner, as well as takeout. I could write an entire essay about how good this restaurant was in terms of the quality of food (also tried the Eggplant Parm which was crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, as well as the vegan tiramisu). The ambience (esp at dinner) and service (esp at lunch) was so good. If you are into excellent quality Italian food, this restaurant is for you. If you are vegetarian, vegan, celiac... this restaurant is DEF for you. Pls don't miss it!!

This visit, we kept things simple and it paid off. The oatmeal with berries was comforting and well-balanced; not overly sweet, just fresh and satisfying. We also had their spiced tea with turmeric, cinnamon, cloves, and other warming spices. It felt almost medicinal in the best way; soothing, fragrant, and exactly what you want to start your day. Hubbs ordered the breakfast burrito with a side of fruit, and it was just as good as it looked. Hearty, flavorful, and filling without feeling heavy. I got the lentil soup, which I appreciated for being more broth-based with whole lentils instead of the usual purée. It had great texture, was deeply satisfying, and easily held its own as a full meal. The vibe is always relaxed with the friendliest servers in town, the food is thoughtful created, and the location right in the heart of the market makes it an easy stop while exploring. This spot is consistently good, consistently fresh; we'll absolutely keep coming back every time!

On our last day I managed to find Jerusalem Express and I was so happy. An entire menu that I could eat almost everything. The falafel was incredible - the best I've ever had. Not dry at all. I'd eat falafel all the time if it was always this good. The dips were also incredible. I don't remember what we all had, but meat eaters were also as happy with their options and it was worth the hike from where we were staying to this little place by the hospital. Alon was the only one there on the night we showed up. He took orders, cooked and served everything. As everyone has mentioned - it is like you are in a friend's home who really knows how to cook this type of food. Unfortunately, I enjoyed the food so much I forgot to take any photos. Just go, you won't be sorry. (Be sure to bring cash, though - I had to go back to pick some up.)
