Jamie W and I didn't venture that far from Zona Romantica, but when we walked to the northern end…read moreof the Malecon, we found ourselves in the quaintly commercial neighborhood of 5 de Diciembre. Because there was a nip in the air (and I'm not talking about me), it was time for a coffee break. We found this compact spot with a couple of sidewalk tables, so we decided to plant ourselves for the time being. Fortunately they had a robust coffee menu with each item in two sizes: 'chico' and 'grande'. I assumed 'chico' meant small, but it translates literally to 'boy'. Regardless, we were feeling quite 'grande' since we needed fuel for the long walk back to the hotel. Jamie ordered the MX$70 Grande Latte (Photo 3), while I went for the more bargain priced MX$45 Grande Americano (Photo 6). Both hit the respective spots of the respective recipients. Better yet, they were truly grande and lasted us through a lengthy conversation about the highs and lows of Puerto Vallarta. Rest assured It was almost all highs. COFFEE - 4 stars...rich brews in their coffees AMBIANCE - 3.5 stars...a bit tight but the sidewalk tables helped considerably SERVICE - 3.5 stars...efficient TOTAL - 4 stars...nice stop in a bustling neighborhood RELATED - Exploring Puerto Vallarta?

It was super close to where we were staying in Zona Romantica, which made it really convenient. We made a reservation but honestly it wasn't too busy for a Friday night so we probably could have walked in. We sat outside and there was live music which was such a nice touch. I'm not sure if she was part of the restaurant or just set up nearby but she was amazing and made the whole vibe even better. I ordered the filet mignon which came with grilled veggies and mashed potatoes and I ordered a side of their mushrooms that were recommended. Everything was so good. The filet was cooked perfectly, super juicy and full of flavor. The mushrooms were honestly really rich and flavorful. The mashed potatoes and veggies were also great. We had a few glasses of wine with dinner and they were all really good. For dessert, we got the chocolate cake and it was the perfect way to end the meal. Service was attentive and quick and even though we stayed past closing, we never felt rushed at all. The overall quality of the food and service really impressed me. Just a heads up, this is not a cheap dinner. It came out to ~$530 for four people, but we did have two bottles of wine. That said, it felt fair for the quality and experience.

We had to wait about 10 minutes for a table, which was perfect, as it gave is a little time to look around at all the trinkets and various wares in this busy tourist town All 4 of us ordered the same thing. While the taste of the Ruben was really appealing, the pastrami on my sandwich was a little gristley. The fries were tastefully seasoned and plentiful. My biggest problem, having zero to do with the restaurant, was the BLARING electronic music on the corner. It was hard to hear each other talking. I wasnt expecting it to taste like a US NY deli Ruben and it did not, but it wasnt bad. I'm not sure I'd go there again, with all the other choices.
