There were 11 of us, so in their defense, we were a lot. They only have a small pizza oven and everyone wanted pizza. We were not prepared for their inability to serves us in a timely manner. We arrived at 7:40pm and all meals were finally delivered just after 9. 2 pizzas were badly burnt. I ordered Tacos Pastor and was disappointed. They just didnt have the flavor that I've found in other establishments around Puerto Vallarta. I hope we just hit on a bad night. The staff was friendly and I honestly believe they were doing the best they could. The prices were decent, but they were definitely off, as a team.

I really wanted to give just three and 1/2 stars…read more The menu has expanded and they now have fajitas and also offer pizzas. We visited twice during a two week vacation. The first visit was fine so we went a second time. On our second visit, my husband asked about the pizzas and was told they weren't available. The courtyard in back does seem to have a new pizza oven installed but the wood sat beneath it unused. It wasn't working on our first visit either but we didn't ask about the pizza. If you are not going to fire up the pizza oven, at least advertise you do on Friday, Saturday and Sundays or whenever it is you do operate it. We seemed to be the first to arrive on our second visit. The guy who seated us changed the music to a rap genre he must have assumed we would enjoy more. We did not mind. As other dinners joined us we looked around to see their reactions to the songs and their naughty words. As we had hoped, two elderly ladies were seated and three songs into their visit Cardi B also arrived to sing "WAP". We were not certain if they were listening to each songs lyrics but they did sway back and forth in their chairs in tempo to the beat. That was fun. I wanted the chicken fajitas and the waitress returned to indicate they had no chicken. I was not sure if this was some Mexican version of the U.S. version of dealing with shortages in baby formula. I glanced toward the pizza oven and switched my fajita order to flank steak. They must have been sorry about the missing chicken and gave me a serving that would feed two. I asked for three extra tortillas and had the remainder boxed up as I wanted to pass it along to a hungry homeless person. Mission accomplished.

(Disclaimer: Please overlook any gringa estupida Spanglish grammar errors.) Gracias amigos! This place is a hidden GEM. The prices were off-the-charts reasonable and the lobsters were HUGE! Being from the Midwest, mì amigas lobsters would've been close to double, if not more, what we paid. It's not those tiny tails like you get at red lobster either, that jumbo shrimp rival for size. These lobsters were legit! I've seen smaller chihuahuas... We had a party of 6 and no one complained about a single dish, flavor, spice, drink. Sr. Mauricio was fun and attentive. Guacamole was good. Calamari was amazing! Please get it. Best several of us has ever eaten. Not over cooked and spongy. Just fantastico. Perfecto! Get in a taxi and go there. Now. Then go again. Your stomach AND pocketbook will having a full on fiesta! It's colorful and has murals and is just a beautiful experience. We have 3 more days here and we might even go again. We will see what the universe tells us we need in México! Olé!

It was recommended to our family by other white folks who raved about the tortilla soup. While someone in our group did order the soup, I don't like soggy tortillas so it wasn't for me. My mother described it as having ample chicken and avocados but nothing to write home about. My stepfather ordered the coconut shrimp which surprisingly came with mashed potatoes and steamed vegetables (a plus in my book but not what I would have expected). The shrimp was very coconutty and came with a sauce that purported to be pineapple. I wouldn't say the sauce much resembled pineapple in appearance but was nonetheless a compliment to the very large and plentiful shrimp. I ordered the fish tacos, grilled, which were very disappointing. Although there were 4 tacos, of good size, they lacked in flavor and came with a sad pinch of cabbage a weird horseradish sauce. I would have preferred a fruit relish of some kind and it's too bad the fish didn't have much seasoning. The "pico de gallo" that was served as an appetizer was also really just tomatoes and onions with no "pico" and no cilantro, so that was also sad and unfortunately couldn't help to redeem my tacos. Having only tried 3 of their dishes I can't comment on the rest of the menu but I wouldn't recommend the fish tacos. One highlight that might interest others: It did look like they had an all you can eat ribs special which hungry folks might appreciate. All in all, it wasn't worth the cab ride there and back, in my opinion, but might be good for hungry folks who are nearby and not picky about their fish, or looking for something else on the menu. Certainly don't go for the ambiance, it's just a mix of plastic tables and chairs and more traditional wooden furniture.
