Update: After eating at most high end places in Punta Mita,…read moreBahia was waaaaaaay overpriced. $600 for 2 adults and a teen, no alcohol. 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.

If you're squeamish about fish smell or the idea of flies, you might want to send your husband/friend/manservant here to purchase your fish for you. However while it looks a lot more rustic than your average US fish market, it's not that bad. We scored some excellent seabass and a fat kilo of tuna here for what I'd consider to be dirt cheap. And I'm assuming I paid gringo-price. The guys were helpful, spoke enough english to get me what I needed, and when I asked for tuna, they pulled a huge whole tuna out of the cooler, hacked off a kilo, and handed it to me. See photos. It was a thing of beauty. The fish sections in the supermercados around here suck. Come to this Pescaderia and get the fresh, tasty stuff instead. Support the little guy.

Fish, other seafoods, and shellfish, arrive at the shop in the early-mornings (weekdays, and Saturday), and once unpacked, are set up for sale rather quickly by the staff. My favourite time to shop there is between 7-9am, when the products are out for sale, and the selections and freshness the best. For me, it's been primarily a place to shop for shrimp. I find their selections are often 'the' best in the area -- allowing me to choose sizes graded from small to large, and at times, very large, with heads still attached. For us, I'm most often seeking "mediums" for our our cooking, but once in a while, the "small'' are great for cocktails, to use in sandwiches, stir-fries, and the like, and the "large" or "very large" can make some yummy dinner treats. The shrimp are priced by the kilo, and the friendly and accommodating staff will always provide you with as much or little as you wish. I like this little pescaderia, have been shopping there for several years, and have never had a problem with the quality of products purchased.

The food and service here are truly excellent--everything we ordered was flavorful and well-prepared, and the staff were attentive and friendly throughout our visit. However, one major downside was the pricing of drinks. There were no prices listed for cocktails, and we were surprised to find out that a single margarita cost over 500 pesos--more than the price of most meals on the menu. While the drink was decent, it definitely wasn't worth that price point. Transparency on drink pricing would go a long way toward improving the overall experience. read more

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.
