Considering I saw the tostadas being removed from a grocery bag, I'm assuming they weren't made in house. My order came with forks, tostadas, hot sauce, ketchup, and saltine crackers. *Aguachile: the portion was very small and there was barely any flavor. The shrimp had the slightest bit of acidity but I'm shocked by the lack of lemon juice and green Enchilosa sauce. There was a singular slice of avocado on top. Most of the container was composed of red onions and cucumbers. The red onions were dry, hence I refuse to believe that this dish had any proper preparation. *Ceviche Especial: wow was this so dry. The octopus and shrimp were way overcooked. Instead of shrimp ceviche, I received a strange clump of shredded imitation crab. This was similarly topped with a single slice of avocado. There was no aspect of seasoning or citrus in this entire meal. The lack of freshness and flavor was astounding. A positive was that I didn't get food poisoning from this meal. However, I wasn't able to finish either dish because they were both poor examples of Mexican seafood.

There was another couple sitting next to us seemingly left after their drinks as well. It was enough for me to just decide to skip this spot.

Had heard great things about this restaurant and finally decided to give it a try. The menu was composed of fairly common dishes found at most Mexican restaurants. I'll review the dishes we tried. First, we had some carne asada tacos. The meat was seasoned and cooked well, topped on fresh made corn tortillas. Garnished with onion, cilantro and fresh salsas. Would have again. Their fish was freshly fried and seasoned well. Nice crisp skin and super moist flesh. The garlic butter I requested added an additional layer of flavor. The refried beans were delicious and well as the rice. The side salad was complimentary to the fish as it was refreshing and citrusy. I enjoyed my meal to say the least. I definitely will visit again.

The chips and salsa were the best part of the entire visit. The salsa was full of flavor, full of aroma, with a spice that hits and fades just right, pulling you back in for another bite. I'd buy a tub of it without hesitation. I saw a daily special, two enchiladas with rice and beans, and ordered that along with a strawberry wine margarita, mostly out of curiosity. When it arrived blended, I expected a sangria‑tequila hybrid. Instead, it tasted like nothing. Just cold, blended liquid with no real identity. Before I could figure it out, the food hit the table, fast. Less than five minutes. The rice and beans had no flavor. Salt helped, but only a little. The tiny salad on the plate didn't add anything for me. But the enchiladas were solid. I got them with ground beef, and the red sauce was flavorful, the beef seasoned well. Pico de gallo on top isn't my thing, but once everything blended together, I ate it up. I tried the margarita again mid‑meal. This time I could taste a faint wine note, like a very light blended sangria. Not something I'd order again, but definitely an experience. Honestly, Vallarta shines in two places: the salsa and the enchiladas. If they ever decide to serve proper sangrias in a few flavors, I'd come back just for that, and a basket of chips with that salsa.
