Mariachi Ocean View Of The Boardwalk Sunset View Pozole Balcony Puerto Vallarta Malecon Tampiqueña Meat Chile Rellenos Cinnamon Coffee

Feb 14, 2026"I came to visit last year and tried their me enchiladas and fell in love. I came back for the near and took my friend with me. They also loved it! Portions are perfect. Orange juice was freshly squeezed. the view from the balcony was wonderful and relaxing. The staff was nice, but just a bit slower than I’d like. All in all, would return again."

Feb 02, 2026"This is a fantastic restaurant with fabulous food. You have to visit this place. Make sure you go upstairs for a terrace seat. Ask for Carlos. Tell him tell him Grigor sent you. Make sure you arrive just before sunset."

Feb 01, 2026"Great views on the Malecon. I had fettuccine Alfredo with chicken and a side of garlic mushrooms. My Mrs had spaghetti Bolognese and a tortilla soup. She found the soup too spicy and I found my added chicken was a bit scarce. You get the bowl of chips and a basket of garlic bread. With a tip 800mp."

Jan 31, 2026"A nice place with a Mexican touch and beautiful Ocean and malecón view. It takes some time for the food to be ready, the presentation is good and so is the service. Some days the mariachi plays live It's a good option if you're not starving"

Dec 23, 2025"Came here after attending the truffle making class at the choco museo. Their frozen margaritas are well balanced, flavorful and good. The salsa is very fresh and so is the guacamole. Would come again, the views of the malecon are gorgeous and service is really good."

Dec 04, 2025"Great view of the Malecón at any time of day if you have a table near the windows. Not busy at all on a February Wednesday evening. Server was pleasant, no issues speaking English and English menus provided. All meals were very good though my Enchiladas were not very hot. Our total pre-tip was just over $1000. Included one sangria, beer, wine and a coffee."
