    Coconut shrimp
    Kathy M.

    I wanted to to give them a good rating but the service is very slow and pretty bad. The waitress decided without asking, not to give my husband soup although he ordered it because "you ordered ceviche!" So one can't have both soup & ceviche in one night? I ordered tuna well done but it came out bloody red. Asked for it to be cooked more and then it came out super salty. Waitress barked at me, "Do you want me to remove it?" and did not bother to ask if I wanted something else. The first time we went, I ordered salad & coconut shrimp but the salad never arrived. Coconut shrimp was nothing to write home about. If you come to this restaurant, pack your patience as the service is very slow although the restaurant was pretty empty when we got there both nights. Asked for a straw and had to ask 4 different people to finally get one. Overall, very disappointing experience. We won't be back

    Shrimp fettuccini
    D S.

    Beautiful setting overlooking the marina. The guacamole was great as was the soup and shrimp fettuccini. The servers were prompt and attentive.

    Chips and salsa

    Our party of seven had a memorable dinner at Maizul during our annual holiday trip to Nuevo... We sat outside, enjoyed the view of the marina, along with our drinks and food. We especially enjoyed the fresh fish entrees. As others have mentioned Chuey was our server / bartender and was fabulous! We'll definitely be back!

    When I asked the waiter/owner what's better the mahi-mahi or Seabass. He said get the shrimp Chile relleno. It was just OK.

    Just ok. Margaritas are $17 us! The mahi-mahi was way too sweet. When I asked what is better the mahi-mahi, or sea bass he said to get the shrimp.

    Tried this adorable gem of a restaurant. View from our seat

    Just love this place. Only restaurant we ate at twice while on vacation. The coconut shrimp is so good. We started with maizul salad and shrimp fajitas. Frozen margaritas are so tasty and tequila the cat joined us. Staff is so friendly. A must try!

    Sopa frijol y poblano
    Cristina R.

    Great food options, friendly service, and very efficient. They bake their own bread, and it is delicious. It is right by the marina, so you get the breeze and view. Ambiance is peaceful and relaxed. See pictures

    Chilaquiles Verdes
    Karina G.

    The staff was really wonderful. Everyone was warm and friendly, and always had a smile to share, plus the food was good. On my last day I had the chilaquiles for breakfast before heading to the airport, and I'm so glad I did. They were very good. I also had the chicken fajitas for lunch on another day, and they were tasty as well. I ate at 3 of the local restaurants during my stay and this was one of my favorites.

    Tuna tataki

    Beautiful atmosphere overlooking the marina Service was excellent Start with the split soup, it's half green chilies and half bean. Richy and creamy, distinct Mexican flavors. 10/10 The tuna tataki was mouth watering, refreshing and melts in your mouth 9.5/10 The chile relleno stuffed with lobster mac and cheese was rich, creamy, spicey and very flavorful! 8.5/10 The tuna medallion was an amazing and surprisingly delicious combination, be prepared to step out of your comfort zone in the best way possible! 8/10

    The chilequile and service were exceptional in a peaceful and idyllic dockside setting. I highly recommend this oasis in Nueva Vallarte!

    Impressed and then some!…read more A bit skeptical, as it was under new management, but Senõr Carrera and his partner, the chef, took such great care of us and did an AMAZING job from presentation to flavor to making us feel welcome and appreciated. (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!

As we walk into the restaurant, I was taken back by the beautiful view of the water and the wide open spares of the restaurant it self. The restaurant very tall ceiling made of palm tree branches. The lighting is beautiful and mystical. They have large pictures of the owner and famous actors and actress, and singers. They also have a large walk-in wine cooler that is visible from the outside. Very fun! We were grated right away by a very kind young man. We then were escorted to our table that was located towards the right side of the restaurant over looking the water. Definitely the best table in the restaurant. We were given menus and a cocktail/wine list. The hostess pulled out my mom's and my chair to be seated. After glancing over the menu we decided to order a bottle of wine for the four of us. My kids pick a Diet Coke and Dr. Peper. We were also given bottle water to drink as well. Once are drinks were ordered, we ordered dinner. My dad order the red snapper, my mom ordered the Lobster pizza, my husband ordered the mochaheta, my son got the Surf and Turf, my daughter ordered the sea food pasta, and I ordered the coconut shrimp. Everything came out amazing and out of this world yummy. The presentation was OMG!! Best restaurant we ate at over our 12 day stay. Can't wait to go back. And we even celebrated my daughter's birthday. The candle was my favorite party. See you guys soon.
