We brought our large crazy family here to dinner and it was outstanding! We literally ordered everything on the menu and it was all equally amazing. Angelica handled our large group with impeccable service and grace. Hands down as good as any restaurant we've been to. A gem read more

This was a stop on a taco tour I did and it was such a neat restaurant! Greeted with the beautiful looming tree at the entrance it's hard not to be intrigued as to what lays beyond. They have plenty of seating both indoor and outdoor as well as a bar you can sit at. The decor is eclectic and really cool. The bathroom has a shower head and foot washing station for those coming straight from the beach. We tried their pork belly tacos which were very delicious. Succulent meat and two yummy salsas to pair with it. read more

Wow!! What a place. We made reservations here, as it gets very packed. It's absolutely beautiful. We showed before our reservation, but were able to sit outside and enjoy some drinks. Definitely a wonderful ambiance! We sat upstairs, and it's just stunning with all the greenery. Service was A+. All the individuals were interacted with spoke English well. Drinks were AMAZING. I had mocktails and cocktails, and nothing disappointed. We ordered so much food and were not disappointed with ANYTHING we ordered. We got hummus, pizza, queso, fries, octopus, tacos... and don't forget about the dessert!! We got essentially one of everything and it was absolutely by far, our favorite meal in Mexico. Definitely check them out. We would have gone back during our stay but they didn't have any reservations open! Check them out! You won't wanna miss it. read more

My wife and I have visited Nuevo Vallarta several times but have ever eaten at La Negra before. Based on the positive reviews from Yelp, we thought we've give it a try. It was outstanding! The staff service was A+, attentive and did not rush us. We had an upstairs table, which was outside, with beautiful plants and a large tree overlooking the patio. We started first with the guacamole, which was seasoned just right, it was so fresh. We also had the appetizer Panela, which was a melted local cheese seasoned with garlic and oregano. OMG, if you visit you MUST try this. For entrees, I went with the Ahi Tuna burger, and it was cooked perfectly. My wife had the Ahi tuna ceviche - it was so delicate and fresh - she loved it! We are staying at the Flamingos Villa Del Palmar, and it was only a $6.00 Uber ride to the Restaurant. read more

The food arrived so fast and the waitstaff was incredibly friends and helpful!! read more

La Negra is really good food in a cool atmosphere with great staff. The octopus carpaccio was delicate and delicious. I also had the octopus taco which was good but I wasnt a huge fan of their mole. Everything else we tried was great. Price was average for this type of food in the area. Definitely recommend a visit. read more

This little gem was literally around the corner from our hotel. As we walked up, the first thing we noticed was a huge tree covering the sidewalk but once there the leaves make for a grand entrance to the front of the restaurant. The decor is simple, vibrant and surrounded by greenery. It's isn't a little taco place with a few seats. It is a pretty spacious place with a second floor and an extended raised patio located on the street. The staff is very friendly (Mexican hospitality is the best). Our server Sara, was super sweet and made us feel comfortable. The staff spoke both spanish and english. They offered us menus in either language. We began by ordering a guacamole which came with a side of tostadas. DELICIOUS. Not traditional with tomato onion and cilantro. No, this one has cucumber red onion some herb and have cherry tomatoes on top. We also ordered two pork belly tacos and a ceviche. The pork belly tacos were simple but yet so tasty. The ceviche was a fusion of soy sauce, lime, red onion, chunks of tuna over two papa and chorizo tacos with a half sliced of avocado on top. This was the most delicious ceviche I've had in a long time. There tacos seem like they don't belong in this dish right? But don't fool yourselves the soy citrus sauce gave the tacos the best flavor! My mouth is watering as I'm writing this review. :) We ordered mocktails for our dinner that were tasty but nothing to rave over. I am so happy that we were able to make this place our first culinary stop on our vacay. read more

Came here twice for dinner and loved it both times. We had reservations both times. It gets busy. The food and drinks were all outstanding. Service was great as well. It was too dark to take photos of our food (both nights) but we really loved it here. Our server was friendly and gave great recommendations. This is a must when visiting Bucerias. read more

Cute restaurant in a very surprising neighborhood. Much bigger than it looks, we say upstairs in an open air patio that feels like you're sitting in a tree house, great music and service. We ordered the pizza special with fish to share and big boss ceviche and the Mahi Mahi, catch of the day. The pizza had arugula, goat cheese and tuna carpaccio topped with arugula and hot chili oil of course! The thin crust was just the right amount of carb. The ceviche equally impressive comes with two bean filled tacos covered with generous amount of tuna and topped with half an avocado, a meal on its own! Slightly spicy with the heat of Serrano peppers, lime juice and cilantro. Super fresh. Last but not least grilled mahi Mahi over thinly sliced potatoes and asparagus. The fish is perfectly grilled and has a smokey flavour. Again don't forget to add the chili oil if you like a little spice! read more

First time at this hidden gem! Just off the main drag in Bucerias is La Negra. Great vibe. Amazing food and top notch service. Even brought us drinks on the patio while we waited for our spot to open up. Hector is mucho friendly! Try the Panela with mushrooms but get it to share! I had the fillet and my wife had the mahi mahi, both were high quality. Mix in a fine cocktail menu, nice light groove sounds, outdoor seating and reasonable prices and you can understand the wait time if you don't have a reso. Some sidewalk seating is a nice touch. Worth the wait! Only negative for me is the cocktail napkins on the table which are fine for the lunch crowd but should be replaced for what's a pretty fine dinner experience. Try it, you'll love it! read more

Food was not bad but the service was horrendous. I had my daughter with me who is autistic and obsessed with water bottles. After they told her she caoukdnt have a water bottle on her, they took her water bottle and then never offered refills on water the rest of evening until we asked for refills. I understand rules are rules but at least offer refills on water since we can't bring in a water bottle from outside. They also accidentally brought us someone else's potatoes wedges almost as soon as we sat down. We thought it was a complimentary thing but soon found out it was not. No problem paying for a potatoe but sheesh, take some accountability. Music and atmosphere was great, it was juat difficult to enjoy with a bad taste in my mouth from the rest of the experience. For a place that's all about appearances, they sure don't care about customer service. Shout out to to the bus boys, though! read more

When you arrive the first thing is people who are kind and courteous. You might wait 5 minutes to be seated. This is a very successful place. The experience is out of this world. We ordered the panela to start and then we ordered fish of the day and 2 tacos. What a treat, the flavors and texture of every meal transport you and you can't stop eating. Even when full you want to continue. The service is outstanding.. everyone looks after you, well mannered and kind. I see people leave the restaurant happy and interacting with the servers like they are family. All expats have kind words for the staff. And a great surprise at the end: Celebrating my sister in law, everyone sand to her and clapped. Fun and delicious. Please read everything about this restaurant before you get here. It's fantastic! read more

We found this place as we walked about one day and we saw that people had made reservations and it seemed like a great place to have a drink and some food. So I made reservations and away we went. The place is nice and chill, good vibe but that was it. First, it is outdoors, and I get it as we are near the ocean, but the amount of flies hovering over our food and the lack of air circulation really made it too hot. Next the drinks, the drinks are ok as it seemed like loose interpretation of drinks but not in taste. The drinks were mid at best. The food was okay. The ceviche was over salted. The burger beef was okay, but it felt like something was missing (it was a BBQ burger without the BBQ flavor). Walking in I saw the wood piles and I thought for sure they would be using wood to cook the meat but I was wrong. Overall, I personally would never recommend this place, but I could hear others saying that they liked it. For a total of $68 US dollars I think that it was ok priced if you are used to US prices. read more

5 stars for the cocktails!!! By far the best beverage I've had in Bucerias and I can't wait to try another one. The vibe and service was friendly, welcoming and chill. Food was good - I personally like thinner patties but it was tasty nonetheless. The burger came with wedges - the chipotle aioli had a subtle kick that was delicious and they also crispy the cheese on the burger which was different in a good way. Each person at our table ordered a different burger and all plates were empty by the end. read more

Fun atmosphere, especially upstairs and good food, friendly service. Two of our crowd especially loved the tuna.

What an awesome experience! We felt like we were eating in a treehouse! The food is outstanding and the service was exceptional (thank you Sarah )! Sarah spoke excellent English and had the sweetest, bubbly personality! She made great food and drink suggestions. We had the Panela with sautéed mushrooms and rib eye, YUM! We also had the octopus taco and the cheese filled jalapeño wrapped in bacon taco, delish! The craft cocktails were inspired and tasty! I was pleased when the bartender suggested substituting mezcal for vodka on one of their signature cocktails (sadly, tequila & I aren't friends anymore, haha). A 10/10 experience! Make reservations and request to eat upstairs - you will not be disappointed! read more

I absolutely love this place The ambience is great. The drinks were great. The food is great and the staff is awesome. We were in Bucerias for one week and we ate here three times and looking forward to next time I can go back. My son was very picky and pretty much just needed pizza all the time and the pizza was great. I loved all of the options for what kind of tacos were available and everything we ordered was phenomenal! Thank you, La negra read more

Start with a few tacos, we loved the Pulpo, Taco-macho, the rib-eye... we had the Steak which was delightful. we tried 4 diff drinks all were great!! i'm coming back for sure. read more

We where a party of 6 celebrating a birthday . We arrived at the restaurant and they would not seat us until the fourth person showed up . The place was completely empty they suggested we wait at the bar and buy a drink . We don't drink so that was not a option . We asked politely to be seated and they again refused . We live in Nuevo and stood them our party would be a few minutes behind us . They again refused to seat us . We said to the owner that it was a pretty stupid policy and he told us " we won't be serving you at all tonight " . It's not like this is a five star restaurant in London or Paris but they definitely lost our business forever . Have some respect and flexibility. Good luck read more

Quite the fantastic place for good food, great live music ( the band Pug) was great! They had a local beer from Bucerias and a great outdoor dining area where you can see the sights of town. Definitely will return next year. Wish I would've picked up one of their cool t-shirts! read more

We had reservations, arrived on time and were dressed nicely. we were greeted by the hostess with " We have to warn you, you can only have the table for 2 hours". What kind of a welcome is that??? Once again, we were seated out front on the trailer on the street - we've only sat upstairs in the actual restaurant one time, which was years ago. People arriving after us were greeted with kisses and hugs and were quickly seated upstairs. We were seated at a tiny 2 top table, despite the fact there was only one other couple on the trailer and the larger tables remained empty the entire time we were there. We considered walking out, but chose to order inexpensive meals, rather than the usual fresh fish or steak. The guacamole was mainly cucumbers, which is inexcusable. We ate quickly and left, never to return. The gentleman waiter with dark hair and a nose ring was delightful and the food is usually good, but the snobby attitude we have experienced on multiple occasions has changed our mind about La Negra. There are so many other great restaurants nearby that welcome you with a smile and open arms - don't waste your money at Le Negra. read more

It's now been open for a few years and has become the absolute staple for any cool-cat-hipster find foodie in the Nayarit side of the Bay of Banderas. I dare you to find anything on the menu that's not welcome in your arsenal of great flavors. All tacos and the salads are amazing. The epic cocktails are creative and original. Always a good place to start the day or end the night.. The upstairs is a cool DJ heaven for urban-jungle-electronica and trendy lounge music, and raicilla of course. Good vibes! The more you go the more you'll love it. read more

The vibe is still really cool BUT the service and food quality sadly are not what they used to be. We come to Bucerias every year and this was probably our 7th or 8th time at La Negra and the first time we've been really disappointed with our experience. Server was argumentative and dismissive, table was full of dirty dishes most of the meal, didn't bring clean plates or silverware between courses or check how things were. A lot of servers running around with iPads but seemed confused. The potato wedges that used to be amazing are too large now and were hard/undercooked and the new sauce recipes aren't good. Bring back the OLD garlic aioli (new vegan stuff is awful) and some Heinz ketchup. Every new change is not for the better. Guacamole was flavorless and the warm cheese which we usually love was too greasy and served with insufficient tortillas that were tough and thick. Salad and pizza were good. We were in the 6:00 pm seating and they said they were already out of the nightly fish special?! Might go again sometime for the vibe only if I decide I don't care about good food or good service. Disjointed dissatisfying experience. Would not recommend now. read more
