Reviews
We kicked things off with a Caesar salad and French onion soup, both solid choices and full of flavour. For mains, the filet and ribs were perfectly cooked, generous portions, and absolutely hit the spot. The dessert menu is very tempting, plus there are specialty coffees that looked dangerously good, so save room if you can.
The staff truly made the experience. Genuinely friendly, kind, and clearly happy to be there. You could feel the teamwork and good energy throughout the restaurant, which always makes a great meal even better.
My god yesterday me and my friends have one of our best dinner together,
Everything was amazing, people there are super nice, we enjoyed everyt single minute
The service was attentive without being intrusive, and the overall ambiance was warm and inviting, perfect for a relaxed evening out. Highly recommend this spot if you’re looking for elevated comfort food and great cocktails in Puerto Vallarta.
ATMOSPHERE:
The interior look is of a city bistro with low tops abound. It’s not a big space and they’re popular so be prepared to wait a bit.
MENU:
Apps, soups, salads, steak, pork, chicken, duck, ribs, pasta, seafood, desserts.
FOOD:
Rustic French Onion Soup
This was the only disappointment of the night as there was hardly any soup in the bowl and mainly all onions. The onion overload resulted in a very salty and overly-caramelized flavor in what little liquid I had. Pass.
Cajun Spicy Jambalaya
I really liked this version as it had the perfect amount of spice (about a 2 on a 5 heat scale) and bold flavors. It’s not a soupy dish but more chunky with enough moisture to coat the rice. The shrimp were nice and crunchy. Portion size was good. Highly recommended for the jambalaya fan.
Shrimp and Asparagus Risotto
The spoonful I had of my spouse’s dish made me moan with joy. I don’t care for risotto per se, but the flavor was out of this world! Creamy, savory and velvety smooth. Definitely ordering this next time!
Soup of the Day
Cream of zucchini was the SOTD. The trio of creamy, sweet and savory flavors married well but the soup could’ve been a lot hotter in temperature.
The Wedge
My spouse loves this easy-to-make salad and orders it everywhere we go! Wash, chop, pour, serve… $7 please. Anyway, the half head of lettuce was fresh and came with a creamy blue cheese dressing. Sprinkled to the sides were fresh tomatoes and crunchy bacon bits.
Baked Cheese Cappelletti
Cappelletti look like little dumplings. They were stuffed with three types of cheese (ricotta, mozzarella, parmesan) and finished in a pink sauce. We added chicken strips for protein. Very good dish but no wow-factor.
DESSERT:
Churro Basket
The name is misleading as you don’t receive a basket of churros but a square churro “loaf” that’s topped with vanilla ice cream drizzled with chocolate and caramel sauces with whipped cream to the side. OH – MY – GOODNESS. The four of us devoured it in a minute. Order one for two people.
SERVICE:
There’s no host stand so just wait at the front and someone will assist you. We felt a bit ignored as three different workers saw us but didn’t say a word. That is until Manuel saw us. He immediately greeted and assisted us with finding a table. We waited near the bar area where Gustavo offered us a drink.
Turns out we got assigned to Gustavo’s section. He was a good server but didn’t have a warm personality throughout. At certain times it seemed he was irritated but would laugh and smile at other times. Very odd.
There was another server who assisted us, a younger guy with a buzz cut, who was extremely smiley, friendly, engaging and professional. I’m sorry I didn’t get his name as he was awesome.
TIP:
Try to make reservations if you like to eat early. We walked in at 9pm and had a short 10-minute wait.
OVERALL:
Nice menu selections. So nice it was hard to decide what to get. Great prices and food sans for the onion soup. Definitely a higher caliber than other PV restaurants.
