We ordered the bbq for 2. It was a plate with some of everything(beef, ribs, chicken, pork and sausage) and cactus, grilled onions, beans, tortillas and a couple of small quesadillas on the side. Our server spoke excellent English and the place was very comfortable. They have a nice area for kids. If you want to come during the day and have them hang out there while they're waiting for their food. I got the barbecue sauce which is a side that you have to ask for and it was very tasty We really enjoyed this place. It felt more authentic and more local than most of the places we normally go to in the South part of the town on the coast. It was about a third less expensive.

Rooftop patio with twinkle lights, friendly and attentive service, and delicious food -- what more can you ask for! We got the guacamole and tuna sashimi as appetizers, and the guacamole (as well as the complimentary salsa) was made right at the table to our exact specifications (mild, please!). We weren't really drinking tonight, so got virgin strawberry daiquiris which were essentially delicious smoothies. I bet the real ones are top notch, too. For mains, I had the chicken fajitas, which came with additional guacamole, rice, and beans in a build-your-own style. My partner had the tomato cream soup, which came with biscuits and had a beautiful presentation. We asked if they served lunch on the way out (they do, opens at 2pm), since we can't wait to come back. We got two churros to go since some of the reviews raved about them -- still too full to eat them but looking forward to it!

The food was outstanding, the oceanfront setting was beautiful, and dining to the sound of the waves made the evening even more special. What truly set the experience apart was the attention to detail. Alejandro and the team went above and beyond by creating a personalized dessert presentation on a surfboard featuring the Johns Hopkins insignia, along with a variety of delicious desserts to celebrate the occasion. The service was warm, thoughtful, and impeccable from start to finish. Thank you, Alejandro, for helping create a memorable celebration for our family. We highly recommend Tuna Blanca for anyone looking for exceptional food, breathtaking ambiance, and service that makes special occasions unforgettable.

Maybe because we don't drink. The ambiance was on point. The tables inside were very colorful with a beach vibe. The outside table we sat at had a beautiful view. The amuse bouche was very tasty as were all of the starter apps. Honestly the mains paled in comparison to the apps which was too bad. I had the Suckling Pig Taco which blew me away even with that name LOL. They were so good I discussed this with one of the waiters and he fully agreed. The Thai Noodles in Ginger Sauce was good but a little cold. I think that's how they serve it. The Amaranth-Fried Soft Shell Crab was especially tasty. The Bay Tuna Tostada was excellent. The Grilled Octopus in a Red Mole was good though a little slimy. I love it when places give you a little included dessert and the Coconut Macaroons did not disappoint. I definitely recommend this place. No doubt.

We decided to dine here on our first evening in Punta Mita and it was an enjoyable meal. The place was a little loud if I'm being honest, but the sunset view quickly made up for that. The staff were especially nice and attentive. We started with the Chips and Guacamole, and the guacamole was exceptional. Next up was the Tuna Carpaccio which was fantastic. We then had fresh Baked bread with a very tasty spread, the Burrata and Greek salads. My better half really enjoyed the Greek salad most of all while I leaned more towards the Burrata. She had the Grilled Fish, which she thoroughly enjoyed. The kid had the Beef Tenderloin and he really, really liked it. I had the New York Strip, which was good but not great. Everything was a little heavy on the olive oil TBH. The Baklava and Pistachio Ice Cream dessert was pretty good, but the Baklava was quite dry. All in all, it was a very nice experience and I would recommend going here.

While they do have a couple of tables inside the open air restaurant and a few at the bar, the majority of the seats are on the beach. We could have sat inside, but the view was so pretty that we stayed outdoors. We started with the roasted potato churros with a side of black caviar which, surprisingly was delicious! For our main meal, we dined on the grilled whole lobster and meat & mole with a side of grilled mushrooms. The meal was delicious, but the lobster was local and the tail was not as big as I would have liked for the price that we paid. Arturo, our waiter surprised me for my birthday and brought out a shaved coconut filled with mango, crumble and tapioca. This was arguably one of the best meals during our week long trip and Arturo was a great waiter.

You're literally sitting in the sand--like, toes-in-the-grains, "I might build a sandcastle between courses" levels of beachy. And the water? Ridiculously close.

Goodness. Whoever invented that dessert deserves an award, a parade, and maybe even a national holiday. It was creamy, dreamy, tropical perfection, and I have legitimately been thinking about it every single day since my last bite. If "dessert withdrawal" is a thing, I have it.
