The staff even brought one of the small birds and put them on my arm and he just sat there for 5 to 10 minutes. Talking to singing in my ear. We had a few drinks here, including one tamarind Margarita and a few beers. I did have a Cantario (spelling) here as well. Staff were very friendly and very attentive. I know it's a touristy area, but still very timely services

The service here is amazing. The owner, Miguel Angel has owned this place for 29 years and he's…read morevery proud, as he should be. They have live music, the guy we saw plays guitar and sings great. I started off with a piña margarita. I ordered the piña mariscos ( in the molcajete part of the menu). Everything was delicious.

The Volcans are a must! For the uninitiated, cheese is melted directly on the griddle, then the tortilla is smashed on top of it.

My friend ordered the sea bass special of the day, and it was an amazing piece of fish executed perfectly. Fresh, flavorful, and cooked beautifully. Portions were huge... so much food that even Coco got a little sample. I've been around, and honestly, if this place were in Scottsdale, it would be packed every night and charging double the price. Incredible value, amazing staff, and consistently great food. One of my favorite spots in Mexico without question.

It was a treat to get to eat at Karen's. The food was excellent. The food at our resort (Iberostar)…read morewas subpar all week. I ordered the chicken verde enchiladas. The chicken inside my enchilada wasn't dry and overcooked. At first I was disappointed when I saw that it was in a red sauce inside the enchiladas. I had asked for green enchiladas so I expected the green sauce to be on the inside as well. I don't care for the red sauce so I never order red enchiladas. But...when I took a bite I immediately shut my mouth and just enjoyed the flavors that were dancing on my tongue. There were no complaints here. My strawberry margaritas were delish and refreshing as well. Our waitress was very nice but she was spread too thin trying to cover all the tables that were outside. It took her quite a bit of time to bring condiments and other items we asked for so we could eat. I asked one of the guys a couple of times who walked by opening umbrellas and collecting drinks. He was a really nice young guy who seemed to be in the right spot at the right time. Get ready to be bombarded by cute children trying to sell you trinkets and as cute as they are don't be fooled. They drive a hard bargain and will barter you into the sand. Oh! And, don't be surprised if a random dog walks past your table. The outside tables are on the sand and there are ropes that set up a boarder so dogs and anything else can just wander on in. Luckily the dog was laid back and not interested in socializing or oddly enough, food. He left as quickly as he came. If you are in Bucerías, Mexico or passing through to get to Puerto Vallarta or Playa Mita, or Punta Mita definitely go to Karen's. Even if you're not passing through make it a place to venture out and eat. We purposely caught an Uber to go eat there and do a little shopping. Oh and Uber's are cheaper in Mexico than the taxi. The taxi charges double. Enjoy!!
