    We have been here several times & always enjoyed our meals We realize prices have gone up here as they have in U.S., however, their prices here have INDEED climbed a bit too much compared to other restaurants in P.V. Food was still good but the prices will drive folks away. Like that Jorge's is off the beaten path which makes it more quiet.Interior is nicely decorated.w/ Mexican flair.*Be prepared for a little hike up the hill

    Casual and fun place with great food. The servers were very friendly, knowledgeable, and willing to share honest recommendations based on what we identified as our preferences. Typical decor for Puerto Vallarta - narrow straight back wood chairs and tables, not the most comfortable for those of us who are on the larger side. But plenty of space to spread out, so it all works. A little bit of an uphill hike from the main streets of the Zona Romantica, on a dead end street (that's where the 'hideaway' comes in) but well worth the effort!

    Amazing experience. We always look for new places to try and this was an old, established one....Fun, local vibe. Tucked down neighborhood street just to the south of the bottom of the vernacular.

    It's a real hideaway, and a really cool one. You do have to climb the hill from the beach but so worth it. Service was excellent. I'd recommend any of their seafood but their grilled octopus (pulpo) was out of this world amazing! Delicious. Mouthwatering. Their homemade desserts were decadent. Really enjoyed their flan especially. Drinks were strong and we got a chance to watch the bartender make them and he poured a lot of liquor! We were a happy camper. Cash pay gets discounted rate, but they accept credit card. Love the family vibe. There's seating outside, but the ambience inside was fantastic. It reminded me of a hippy and tiki all in one. Very colorful with original hand painted oil on canvas art. I highly recommend. Cheers!

    At the vice of a friend we went to this hideaway. It is literally off the beaten path. But in a good neighborhood and easy to locate at the end of the street. The menu is large and lots of choices to make I settled on the coconut shrimp and my friend went with the heat tuna. Both of them were exceptional and we do highly recommend this location for the friendly staff, the phenomenal food, and a festive location.

    This place is hidden at the very edge of the romantic zone. Worth the walk. We sat inside and were entertained by two older ladies trying to pick up a server and buss boy. The food was amazing and came out fairly fast. The soup was good but I would pass on it next time. Both shrimp dishes were amazing. I think the pineapple Diablo shrimp was my favorite as it was a combination of sweet and spicy. We will definitely return here our next trip.

    Jorge's Hideaway is worth the walk and it is tucked into a great little local neighborhood. You'll get the opportunity to meet the owner Jorge who is always available to talk with customers. Jorge is lovely and wants to make sure you enjoy your food and total experience. There is outside and inside dining options and a full bar. I'd suggest trying out one of their shrimp dishes which are all delightful and delicious. The food is fresh and has great local flavors. We will definitely be back thank you Jorge for the amazing experience and food!

    Small and simple cafe tucked down a quiet street up a hill serves up some amazing fresh shrimp. Stick with seafood and you can't go wrong.

    Our new favorite taco joint. We went there, were seated right away. Service was good and fast…read more We ordered the casa fundido with Al Pastor on top. It's thicker, more cheesy than what I've ever had before and very delicious. We paired that with the prime rib tacos, it was a plate stacked with meat and 4 tortillas under it, more than we could eat. The seasoning was great, it was diced so small that it was easy to eat. I got a virgin strawberry margarita, the wife got a coke. It was very affordable.

The ribeye had so much fat that we had to pick through it just to eat it. The al pastor was very average - I've had much better at plenty of other taco spots. The biggest disappointment was the chorizo. It wasn't traditional chorizo at all; it looked and tasted more like chopped-up hot dogs. We barely touched it because it wasn't what we ordered expecting, and it just wasn't good. The presentation also wasn't appealing. The meat was simply piled on top of two tortillas, making everything messy and difficult to eat. They were also pretty stingy with the grilled jalapeños. The salsas didn't do the food any favors either. None of them really stood out, and the green guacamole salsa actually tasted like it had gone bad, so we stopped eating it. Service was attentive, but almost too attentive. Staff kept coming by every few minutes to ask if we were finished or if we needed anything. While I appreciate good service, it made us feel like we were being rushed through our meal instead of being able to enjoy it at our own pace. Overall, I don't understand the high ratings based on our experience. With so many amazing taco spots in Puerto Vallarta, this one didn't come close to meeting the hype. Unfortunately, we won't be coming back.
