    We stopped here for a quick bite and a drink. We split the fish tacos which were delicious. Drinks were tasty as well and service was quick and attentive. The view from the second level was amazing. Very relaxing here!

    The mummy (bacon & gouda wrapped) shrimp is to die for. Staff is super polite and you can't beat the view from the upper level. Perfect lunch spot'

    This is our 2nd visit to La Langosta Loca and again the food was delicious. I ordered the Cilantro Shrimp with sautéed mushrooms and mashed potatoes. Excellent choice all the way around. Service was a little slow, but you can't beat the location.

    We decided to stop in because of the view on the beach but we come back because of the whole package. Food- delicious. Price- affordable. Service- attentive. Very fun.

    The service was outstanding, they were very attentive but not obtrusive. The ambiance was kicked back and chilled, just what I wanted for my birthday. The food was amazing. I had the Cajon Lobster which had so much flavor that I'm still thinking about it. My spouse loved the Cilantro Lobster! I would definitely recommend La Langosta Loca.

    Our meals were both delicious, tuna with blue corn tacos and chicken fajitas. My passion fruit agua Fresca had real maracuya, was divine. Second floor view was great, and lovely breeze.

    If you are looking for a good view and good food this is the place to go. The weather helped a lot since the breeze was good which helped with the humidity. Service was fast. Total wait time for our food was less than 10mins. Definitely going back to try their different dishes they offer.

    Came here for drinks. Got the Miami Vice drink and a Malibu ginger ale. The Malibu did not taste like Malibu and I think they used sprite instead of ginger ale but it was still good. Beautiful place on the beach.

    We stopped for a margarita and a view and that's exactly what we got! The staff was thrilled to have us and the mariachi band came right to us and sang the song we requested, no questions asked. The chips and salsa were good and that marg was STRONG. Felt like we were really having the genuine Puerto experience. Stop here as you're walking by! You will not regret it.

    Really nice beach setting with an amazing view and quick access to the Malecon and the flea market within the PV Romantic Zone. We were welcomed by a very nice man at the door, we had three choices of seating, down stairs indoor, upstairs terrace or on the beach, we decided on the upstairs view point and it was amazing. You could over see the ocean front and the other actives along side the beach front. Before going in on the right side of the building you have an option to sit on a swing like chair at the walk up bar, not sure how smart or safe this is but looks fun, until you fall on you face from drinking and swinging. Setting 5 stars The staff was over all friendly, other than our main server ,he was very short in his responses and a bit lacking in customer service skills. On the other hand another waiter walked right up and was extremely friendly and attentive as you would expect within a highly touristy location. Staff 4 stars because of the other amazing gentlemen. The food, I ordered the Fish tacos cooked al pastor style. Wow they were amazing, I would highly recommend them, three tacos with a side of salsa. My wife ordered deep fried fish tacos, they were ok. We also ordered the guacamole, not impressed it was very bland, no pico de Gallo, cilantro, thankfully they did serve pico as a side with another salsa that saved the day. Our food came out fairly quickly. Lots of fresh seafood options. I had a Mango margarita, it was very good. Overall I would revisit this place but I would make sure that I would hand pick our next waiter.

    I think the reviews are spot on. It;s an average place. Great location the beach. We didn't wait for table. The food was fine. Lobster was small and they served frozen broccoli and veggies. I don't think we would go back but it was a nice evening. Reviews are right.

    Food was delicious ambience was incredibly beautiful and the company that I had beside me amazing. Everything was excellent

    I was walking along the beach when the ol' belly alerted me that it was feeling a bit neglected when I eyeballed La Langosta Loca which had been recommended by a friend so I decided to check it out and let me tell you, I was not disappointed. I was greeted and escorted to my table where I could literally plant my feet in the sand. I immediately ordered a Mango Margarita to quench my thirst whilst I waited for my Lobster Thermidor which was exceptional. La Langosta Loca wasn't offering 2 for 1 margaritas so I just had flan for dessert which was not only larger than I'm accustomed to but quite delectable

    Tostada de camaron y agua de maracuya. I got two tosdadas. So good.

    Server added a 15% gratuity to my bill. It's an annoying practice preying on tourists. The place is good enough but expensive.

    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.

It was unique and delicious! I also ordered the pirey. The frijoles and guacamole were yummy as was the stuffing. I found the fish and sauce a bit mild. My partner ordered the octopus and snail. He loved it. This was his favorite restaurant of the trip, and he was ready to return the next day. I'd definitely recommend this for the uniqueness and flavors.
