We visited here on the Mexology tour and it was absolutely delicious. I would come back not on the tour. We had the shrimp taco and a mezcal drink and it was so good! read more

The food here is absolutely gourmet Mexican at its best. Don't come here if you want Americanized too much "cheese food product" grub. The ambiance is relaxing and upscale. I love it here. read more

The chargrilled cooked chicken was amazing. Awesome flavor. I had to come back again the next night and it was just as good as the first time. read more

Really nice outdoor seating with friendly and helpful staff. The chef came out to say hello and tell us about the day's specials. Chill vibe with nice music and lots of fans for a comfortable breeze. We went for a late morning breakfast and really enjoyed our meals. If they offer you a pastry to start - give it a try! Coffee was good - we bought a bag to take away. Good value. Planning to go back for dinner soon. (Credit cards accepted.) read more

De Cantaro - Breakfast : eggs, chorizo, beans, potatoes, chilaquiles. - Steakhouses Near Me - Puerto Vallarta, JAL

Great Steaks! Beautiful courtyard. We started off with the shrimp tacos which were juicy and seasoned perfectly. My husband had the rib eye which came with potatoes and asparagus. I had the Mexican Platter which came with a perfectly seasoned steak, chile rilleno, mole chicken, nopales, quesadilla with guacamole, and beans with bacon. Service was friendly. Husband liked the lava cake. Perfect date restaurant in Zona Romantica. read more

Just go there!!!! What a fantastic restaurant! Could not have been better in any way. Great ambiance, the whole staff was super friendly and attentive, but the food was the star attraction! We had the grilled octopus which was the best octopus we ever tasted and we are octopus people! We also had two lamb entrees, ossobuco with fabulous goat cheese risotto and French cut chops with pumpkin purée. Delicious! Oatmeal hot cakes were served with fresh fruit including a beautiful fig. Dessert was a beautifully presented flan and an affagotta which we introduced to them! Thank you manager Ivan and server David and the whole staff that made us feel like old friends! Just go there!!!! read more

We love De Cantero! The ambiance is amazing, the drinks are wonderful (especially the marea roja), and the service is second to none - thank you, Alex! We highly recommend this spot if you're in the Romantica part of Puerto Vallarta. read more

Not that great. Food took forever to come out. Not coming back. Server demanded a bigger tip.

Excellent meal and service. Wish they would bottle the sauce for the grilled calamari. Still dreaming about it. Lovely atmosphere and food!! Not a fan of the TVs read more

Coffee for breakfast needs to be strong and De Cantaro makes a coffee worth waking up to for breakfast. Yelp does not show that a breakfast place but they were open at 8 am and a nice menu. Service is not attentive. The staff seem a bit more interested in what's on the street than their customers. While the huevos rancheros is good flavor, the corn tortilla takes work to cut it. I prefer a softer tortilla. Dinner is probably their mainstay. Would like to have written a more positive review but service and good quality need to up their game for breakfast. read more

Great spot! The smokey meat aromas will pull you off the street into this enchanting hideaway with a hidden garden vibe. Beautiful bar(s), drinks, and bartenders. Sebastian & Leo were fab! Remember that you are in Mexico...breathe. Rushing is not an option. The cowboy steak and the ribs were yummy! Sides were beautiful! Definitely a place to try again! read more

The food, ambiance, and service here was so great we've eaten here twice and are already planning to go back a few more times before we leave! Everything is so fresh and cooked perfectly.

This place was very good! Friendly servers and great food options. I order the matcha pancake, which are gluten free, on the side along with the Machaca Vallarta style. It really hit the spot. The potatoes served with them are to die for! The brewed coffee is also really good if you're a fan of a strong, potent brew read more

Good atmosphere and a comfortable bar with knowledgeable bartenders. Great for cocktails, beer and food.

Food was amazing! The waiter service exceptional! I am giving them 4 stars because we have to wait to long foot our meals around 45 minutes and the restaurant it wasn't too busy that night.! Prices ? A little overpriced. read more

Wow. We were recommended to come here by Travis of Jet's boat tours and he was not wrong. The service, the ambiance and the food/drinks were amazing. I can't wait to come back and try several other things that caught my eye on their menu. Their margaritas were poured with a heavy hand which I appreciate greatly. 5 stars all the way around. Second visit in 2 days. The only place we dined at twice because it is so good!! Lunch was amazing and the service was once again stellar. I appreciate the lack of salt used in their food. Season to taste with garnishes provided. They have a full bar and make a phenomenal Goose Bloody Mary. This restaurant is extremely fair priced. 5 star dining that won't break the bank. Can't wait to come back next trip to PV! read more

We have dined at De Cantaro before, pre-Covid, and enjoyed our meal. This time we brought friends with us, but ended up embarrassed for recommending Cantaro for dinner. It must be a new kitchen staff since our last visit. Our pork chops were dry and the carne asada had a propane after taste. BTW, bring ear plugs if you sit towards the street. The sound from the large speakers can crack your eardrums. Luckily, we were sitting in the back. read more

Amazing food and amazing service (Jorge will take great care of you) the silverware came wrapped in plastic to ensure it was sanitized, food was amazing, and the drinks were delicious. I tried the Mexican platter to try a bunch of things and it was the best meal I've had in PV. To drink we had a special cocktail made of aged tequila, tuba (a local drink made of coconut cream, syrup, and apple vinegar), sour cherry juice, and damiana topped with apples, candied pecans, and almonds. Jorge was amazing and gave us a small jar of the tuba to take home with us read more

First class gem! What a find-appreciate all the new reviews...inspired my husband and I to try this great place. We ordered the Cesar to split, beer and wine, fresh fish of the day grilled and I got the rib-eye. Yum yum-dessert a brownie with Ice cream-artful dishes. We will return-sophisticated atmosphere amongst the vibe of the city streets. read more

First time to PV and I can't tell you how happy I am to stumble across De Cantaro. From the hosts, to the servers, to the bartenders. All outstanding. The food is a 11 out of ten. The drinks... 15 out of ten. Can not rave about it more. If you are a mezcal lover or looking for knowledge, the tasting is a must. What an amazing experience! Julio took amazing care of us. He went above and beyond. What an amazing professional. Alexis who did the tasting with us was so knowledgeable. Ask about his creations! Omg! I'm serious: ask about the venom tequila. AMAZING AND Crazy!! read more

This is my frequent spot when I come to PVR, whether it's for lunch or dinner. The staff is super awesome and attentive. Drinks are on point. I've never had a bad meal! read more

Live music. Not crowded. Great wine selection. Superb steak and better service. Thumbs up!

This place quickly became our favorite bar in PV all because of Sebastian. He's a master in his craft and puts a lot of love into the drinks. He was very accommodating and remembered each of our very specific drinks we had a few days earlier. A true gem in this beautiful city! read more

Wow. Talk about great food! But also, great service! Julio provided us with great recommendations and helped us understand the menu in order for us to have a great dining experience experience. Sorry if this review sounds cheesy but I'm used to helping when I'm pissed. I'm finding it hard to formulate a well thought out review which makes me sound like a NYT columnist especially when I just got my mind blown by this place. Go there, relax and enjoy good quality food. read more

Took a long time for the server to come and take our order. Drinks were okay. We finally got chips and salsa and wanted more salsa. We asked another serve because our server never came back to check on us. She didn't bring it either and after 10 mins our server came over and asked what we needed. After waiting an extensive amount of time for our food we asked for our check since we never got our meal. Finally a manager came from somewhere in the back to say they couldn't cancel our order. He then told us that the fire was out and they had to restart it and that was the reason for the food taking so long. When the food finally came to the table it was good. The manager offered free drinks for the tardiness of the food. read more

Had a great time with some refreshing drinks prepared by Isahi Antonio. Super service and special attention to our group of friends.

Mediocre food. So many better places to go in town. We've given it 3 tries now. All 3 visits were not good. Had the chicken tonite and partner had the ribs. Weird sauce on the ribs, Mexican street corn was pretty flavorless and horrid, the highlight was the Jasmine rice. Skip it and go elsewhere. It's pretty empty for a reason. read more

We have stopped at this place each time we go to Vallarta. Excellent service along with a great meal. Well worth your time. We have enjoyed breakfast most of all. Coffee is good and our meal surely makes you want to return. read more

We had such a bad experience with this restaurant. I typically dont write bad reviews, but this establishment takes the cake. We originally wanted to go to Joe's seafood across the street but it was full. We looked across the street and this restaurant was empty so we decided to give it a try. We sat down with party of 8 adults and 3 kids. There were a bunch of mistakes from the get go. Service started off extremely slow. The server took ages to take our drink orders down. By the time drinks came out, 45 mins had passed. Throughout the dinner we had to request for extra bread over 3 times until it came. A glass of ice, took 2 times. Another mistake, we ordered 2 tomahawk steaks medium rare. When the food came it was pork tomahawk. When the beef steak came, it was completely cold in the middle. They then had to re-cook it. What's even more embarassing for the restaurant is that a customer sitting nearby happened to be a butcher, so he went in the back and helped them slice it up and cook it. A piece of meat that size has to be finished in the oven, but this restaurant had to cut up our nice tomahawk and serve in pieces. By the time the finished steak came, the ordeal had turned into a 2 hour dinner, and my kids were getting sleepy and cranky. A complete disappointment. read more

Excellent service, locally owned, great food and drinks. A great addition to the area!

Amazing food. So fresh and full of flavor. The margaritas are delicious and go down very easy The staff is so incredible. Kind, helpful and so friendly. Cannot wait to be back in PV and to ear here. So good read more
