    Stuffed Shrimp

    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!

    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

    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!

You have to pluck a third of the meat with your fingers just to get the tortilla to structurally hold. There is always a line. On a random Tuesday it stretched down the street long before the door opened. I waited twenty five minutes at four in the afternoon for a seat inside. No to go orders, no doggy bags. You eat what you order and leave behind your self respect. The dining room is packed tighter than a turtle's pecker. A dozen staff members move around each other like bees tending the hive, the rhythm wild and relentless. The tacos themselves are intimidatingly large, the vibe unlike anything I have ever seen. Come for the al pastor, and come hungry. If you cannot finish, no option exists but to weep over the abandoned morsels.

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.

Vegans are easy please. Give them clear marked options, even if there is one option, we are pleased. This place had a few clearly marked options plus the staff was fully aware and can provide suggestions. The only downside it is a cash only place. Guacamole and chips - fantastic. The guacamole freshly prepared and chips fresh fried. Amazing. The 3 types of vegan tacos we got were vegan chorizo, mushrooms and cactus (trying for the fist time). The vegan chorizo was the best, slightly spicy but not overly. The poblano peppers were predictable but very good. The onions with it were a good addition. Nicely seasoned and prepared. The cactus was good, we found that it was less seasoned. Just stir fried cactus. The star of all the three types tacos was the fresh blue corn tacos. We could have those everyday. The other superb tasting was the salsas and fresh toppings. 4 types of salsas, white onions and cilantro. The salsa were of varying different levels of heat and even the mildest salsa was the best. The virgin margarita and virgin mojito were great. Margarita being slightly better even though we love mint. Good atmosphere, clean surrounding and great service and vegan food - what more can one ask?
