Coexist Bistro coexists adjacent to Hotel Rio Malecon. It has a small enclosed dining section, but most of it opens up to the hotel pool deck. I ended up eating here 3 times during my stay at the hotel (see separate review). I was the only one eating late afternoon lunch while waiting for my room to be ready. The Mahi-Mahi Fish & Chips was breaded differently than any I've had before, but it was good and the fish was not overdone. They didn't have malt vinegar but the vinegar provided was ok. Corona beer at about 80 pesos was cheap compared to US. Intrigued, I tried the vegetarian Green Omelet for breakfast. Green olives, zucchini, avocado, you get the picture. It tasted better than it looked. For dinner, Tortilla soup was good but a bit too salty for me. I'm not sure what "Artisan Pasta" means, but the Artisan Fungi pasta was excellent; along with the cream sauce, it was probably the best tasting I've ever had! Loaded with mushrooms! The martinis were also pretty cheap at about 79 pesos. So cheap I had 2. The wait staff was very attentive. Food took a bit longer to arrive than I expected, especially since I was one of two guests eating there during my meals; however, the next time I'm in the area, even if not staying at the hotel, I'd definitely stop by for more Artisan Pasta. read more

Went here because we wanted an American breakfast. It ambiance was nice with the i door A/C seating area. The service was attentive and fast. The reason for the 3 stars is the food left something to be desired. It was just average. However for the cost we paid it was to be expected. Nothing spectacular nothing bad. Just average. read more

We wanted lobster but they did not have any so I had shrimp fajitas and my husband had shrimp enchiladas. Both were very good.

Thanks to Yelp and our community's pics and reviews, I was easily drawn to this utopia off the beaten path. I'm always in search for less touristy, off-the-beach locales because I like rolling with the natives! ATMOSPHERE: Located on a side street off of crazy Calle Morelos (the road that you play human Frogger on while crossing), sits a diamond in the rough. A tranquil, open-air space with poolside seating was such a surprise. The place was empty on this particular morning, so I had it practically all to myself. My window seat looked out onto the side street which was great for people watching, all while a light breeze kept me cool from the rising morning heat. I think the restaurant is attached to or affiliated with a neighboring hotel which is where the poolside seating came into play. BREAKFAST MENU: Mix of Mexican/American fare including hotcakes, crepes, eggs, chilaquiles, steak. FOOD: Chilaquiles - $7.40 USD Though I was "chilaquiled out" by this point as it was towards the end of my vacay, I had to try this. The portion of chicken and chips were very generous with the shreds of chicken in red sauce being the most flavorful I've had yet. Thinly shaved potatoes made for a crunchy hash brown side along with fresh refried beans. And yes, I had to have a crowning of eggs to make it a breakfast dish. Delish! SERVICE: I was greeted and seated promptly and checked on throughout. Service was very attentive. TIP: Pay in pesos or USD. OVERALL: Very good breakfast (the crepes looked amazing) and I loved the vibe. Can't wait to bring my spouse next year for breakfast and maybe dinner! read more

This is a great location, near the Malecon and directly across from the flea market. The coffee shop side is air conditioned for those hot muggy days and the courtyard is delightful on cool mornings. The wife had the Benedict's and while the ham was better than average, you just need to be prepared for a non standard English muffin. The hash browns were most unfortunate. I had the French Toast and share the earlier sentiments, a bit on the soggy side however still edible. The orange juice was fresh squeezed, something that is fairly common in PVR, so it's not the same mark of distinction that it would be in other places. I had that with a side of bacon which I feel they delivered better than most. Service is relaxed and friendly. There was nothing seriously objectionable or amazing here. A great place to stop when it's convenient however not the kind of place to set out for on it's own. I was here a couple of years ago and I am confident we will return. read more

We ate here for ilunch, dinner and a breakfast. 13.50 US dollars for breakfast!!! Crazy 2 people!! Excellent food, service and a/c. Honestly waiters and staff were so nice and the prices I thought were so reasonable for quality and quantity. We will visit again and eat here often . It is that good!!. Flank steak, watermelon and argula salad, omelets, fruit platters, salsa, guacamole, everything was most excellent. Go here!!! read more

Food was good. I had the filete pez-camarón. Service was TERRIBLE. I arrived at 3p when it was not busy, and waited for my food over 40 minutes, after I waived at the waiter to please check on it. My food finally arrived a short while after, with vegetables instead of beans I asked for. The waiter didn't check with me a single time to see how things were going. DON'T GO THERE OR YOU'LL BE VERY DISAPPOINTED. read more

I absolutely adore the coexist cafe. I found this place the first time I came to PV in 2010. The ambiance is spectacular and the staff is always kind. I finally made it back on the last day of this trip. The crepe breakfast is a sweet goodness. It combines eggs and turkey with a rich sauce and thin, light crepes. I also had some French toast which was a little soggy and underflavored. The carjeta was an excellent addition though. My friend had a Sonoran Omlet. The one thing we both disliked was the hash browns, they were gritty and tasted like dirty. They had not been boiled before browning so they were raw. read more

Stayed here at the Hotel and ate at this place at least once a day. Great food, great daiquiri. if you get a chance stop there they have a baked potato that I STILL have a taste for weeks later. read more

This place was a good find. We were walking down the street and happened to find this. What a wonderful surprise. The salsa was so good. We had the popcorn shrimp. The sauce was amazing. But the ribeye steak was unbelievable. The service was awesome. Can not say anything bad about this experience. read more

Honestly, this place is a must visit. Coexist Bistro is a fun, hidden world set in the heart of Malecon, Puerto Vallarta. Surrounded by a cute, 1950s boutique Hotel Rio, and surrounding a tasteful infinity pool-like tropical interior; this is a really worthwhile culinary & relaxing experience. Highly recommend. And in truth, I only stumbled across Coexist searching for a peaceful, elevated restaurant away from the tourist spots & gimmicks. read more

By far the best chilaquiles in Vallarta. Believe me, I've had them all over town. Coffee and crepes are delicious as well. The restaurant surrounds Hotel Rio's Pool which would be awkward if anyone actually swam in it. The setting is really lovely. You can also dine inside with air conditioning but I prefer the courtyard. Wonderful service - they even bring out a purse tree so you don't have to put your bag on the ground. read more

We had to kill time becaue check in at the hotel was at 3 so we drank up, and had snacks. We had beer, micheladas the carpaccio de calabacita as well as a couple of daiquiries which by the way they were buy one get one. We had a relaxed and good two hours there, loved the background music since it was not too loud and my hubby and I were able to hold a good conversation without yelling. read more

This has to be one of the best restaurants in town. While walking around town and seeking a nice clean restaurant, we came across Coexist Bistro. It had everything we were looking for cleanliness, great menu, and excellent service. We started off with a great tasting Greek salad. Freshly cut and crisp vegetables along with fresh feta cheese, kalamata and olive oil. Main dish was frutos del mar, which was excellent! My wife had the ceviche de atun. She loved every bite. As previously mentioned, the food, service and drinks were EXCELLENT! The ambience, wall colors, paintings and the restaurant's philosophy is well worth your visit. read more

This cafe has two distinct sections-- one section is their indoor bistro, which has TVs and plays major games (even NFL) when they're on, and the other is their outdoor cafe, which is in the courtyard of the Hotel Rio. Same menu, but there are 2 entrances. I only had chips, beer, and a flan, but the service was friendly, and it was a good spot to pass the time and watch football while waiting for the rain to subside. read more

These great people accommodated our post wedding brunch for 30+ people. They were great with separating the bill, service and THE FOOD WAS DELICIOUS. We loved the presentation and the options (great for meat eaters, vegans, vegetarians, etc). There is a lovely pool area to eat around as well. Just a gorgeous place. read more

Great option for healthy food. More expensive than other food options in Puerto Vallarta, but the quality is great. Lots of salads and options you would typically find in the US (steaks, pizzas, fish, etc). Portion sizes are medium -- great place to go if you don't mind spending $200-300 pesos on a meal. read more

OMG!!! We have eaten well in PV - but this place so far has the yummiest food yet! wow! I am inspired to do a Yelp Review. The service has been spot on! Kudos to Nivardo, our waiter, is so cute, friendly and full of life! This is a must stop - more later! read more

This is my 600th time (give or take) visiting Puerto Vallarta and I always order ceviche here....like literally always. It is one thing I look forward to here. Coming to Coexist, I was a little skeptical knowing that a lot of tourists eat here...even though I've heard great things. So, I ordered my ceviche here and have to say that it was a the best one I've had in PV. I highly recommend this cafe. Even though it's pricier than the local places, the food is great. read more

Enjoyed a very good breakfast here, easy to give it four stars. So disappointed with pizza, I requested salchicha and it was made with chopped pieces of a hot dog. Green omelette superior to most I had. Octopus ceviche is fantastic. Service and location great. Bonus, they had AC. read more

Found this cute bistro while cutting down a side street from the malecon. Both meals plus two cups of coffee came up to 245 pesos so very reasonable. Crepes are normally stuffed with cottage and cream cheese but I just opted for cream cheese and chose strawberry as the option topping. Perfect amount of sweet and tarte. Boyfriend had eggs Benedict which came with hash browns and a side of watermelon. Hollandaise sauce was excellent. Service was extremely fast being that it was January and also on a thursday morning so not many tourists in the area. read more

I joined a group of friends here for dinner & Man was it delicious... I splurged & had a Huge Lobster dinner it was great & the Price was way less than expected. My Friend had the Flank Steak & I tried a bite... Holy moly! Flavorful & Tender. The atmosphere was relaxing & nice. We were pool side & had nice dim lighting. Our Server Sergio took care of our every need & even made our friends Birthday Celebration extra special with Birthday Music & a Special dessert (Flan) I highly recommend checking this place out. read more

Todos los platos que probamos estaban deliciosos. Nos gusto tanto que comimos ahi diario durante nuestra vacciones.

Wow, what a surprise! On our last day and we discovered this place so close to our vacation rental. I had the grilled chicken breast with baked potato and fresh vegetables, boyfriend has arrachera steak with salad and rice. With soda and bottled water, the total was 22 dollars. This was our most expensive meal in Puerto Vallarta, there are plenty of economical choices as well as upscale and pricey. This restaurant is reasonably priced and very good, clean and comfortable. I recommend it! read more

BEST memory of Puerto Vallarta. I'm not kidding. The food was soooooooooo impressive. No other way to explain it. The service was impeccable. I only wish waiters in USA were this good. Kind of hard to find, but please search. Salmon carpaccio was to die for. Waiter was cute too. :) read more

Very good food and friendly service. We came here twice in two days and we would have been back if we were here longer. The ambiance is wonderful as it feels like an upscale restaurant. The food is fresh and flavorful as this was one of the best restaurants we ate at on our 10 day trip. 10/10 would recommend! read more

The staff here is so friendly and the food is so good. The first night here I tried the lobster and it was extraordinary. The second night I had the coconut shrimp with the mango sauce. My wife has had the seafood salad both nights and it is very good as well. I can honestly say that eating here has been pure joy. Sergio, Ricardo, and Rigo are the friendliest waiters and Mateo is a fabulous chef. I know it sounds strange, but they made my first trip to Mexico very memorable and I consider the staff of the bistro and attached Hotel Rio friends. These people work very hard and deserve good tips. It is nice to stay and eat in a place that isn't a giant corporation. read more
