Beautiful evening out of the resort. So happy we chose LaCasa! Our waiters Gerry and Aiain were very attentive and paced our food very nicely. We thoroughly enjoyed our meal on their patio. We chose the tasting menu with wine pairing and every dish was delicious. Beautiful presentation and full of flavour. Definitely recommend!

Fantastic meal at an exceptional restaurant in Puerto Vallarta. I had the mushroom ravioli as a starter and the beef short rib for the main. Both were exquisite. The ambiance was luxurious with interesting art and numerous private areas if that’s what you prefer. Our server was knowledgeable, friendly but not over bearing. Highly recommended.

What a wonderful find, this restaurant has been here for 30 or more years, in the heart of the art district, looks like another high end gallery, but it’s so much more.
The hostess was so pleasant we had a drink, the bar tender was also pleasant inviting, we decide to eat, then the rush, at least 100 people showed up for their reservations. We decide we wanted to eat here also, the bar tender helper made sure we had a seat could not promise the garden. About 15 minutes we were seated right above the grand piano, The view was grand we had the best of the garden and the restaurant building in case of rain.
Service was spectacular, not rushed but attentive,the food was superior the tartar was unexpectedly good, pricey but worth every dimension. The.mains were excellent also.
The portions appeared small but when we finish.we could not eat dessert.
I highly recommend this place, the staff, even the manager stopped by and checked on us, the violinist stop by, the pianist was excellent.
This.place is the bomb.
All in about 140 American, what a value. It’s on our to go list from now on.

Café des Artistes remains an absolute staple of Puerto Vallarta and a place I visit every single time I am in town. The scenery and ambiance are breathtaking, offering a sophisticated yet natural beauty that feels like nowhere else. I was especially impressed by the recent renovations to the entrance; it looks gorgeous and sets the perfect tone for the rest of the evening.
The food was outstanding as always. I highly recommend the morel ravioli and the rokot dish, both of which were prepared to perfection. Since I was celebrating my birthday, I finished the meal with the famous flower pot dessert. It is a stunning treat featuring multiple layers of chocolate mousse and chocolate crumble that tasted just as good as it looked.
Overall, this is a magnificent restaurant with top tier service and a magical atmosphere. I already cannot wait for my next visit!

The restaurant is beautiful, they’ve updated since the last time we came. Service was good, not great. The food… we both did the tasting menu. Let’s just say the shelled oyster was like a piece of gum. I chewed and chewed and chewed… the dish itself would have embarrassed any chef. From that point we should have walked out. We stuck it out, hoping that the following courses would make up for the terrible start. They all fell flat, some we didn’t even finish. We come from a region of California with amazing food. This place would go out of business if this food was served in our town. The chef/owner needs to spend time in his restaurant, it needs nurturing. The concept is there, the venue is amazing, the passion to serve the best dishes is a hard miss. We won’t be coming back. FYI, there is no corkage, and the mark up for a good bottle of wine is 5x.

The atmosphere and overall concept of this fine dining restaurant were good and thoughtfully designed. The space felt elegant and interesting, and the service was generally attentive. However, the experience did not match the price or expectations.
The portions were extremely small. We ordered an urchin and tomato salad, which came with only one small piece of urchin. We also ordered poached oysters that were described as containing pork feet, but the servers were not able to clearly explain the dish or its components.
It was our anniversary. I did not have high expectations, but at least a small gesture would have been appreciated. Instead, we were given two very small strawberry cakes and were still charged for dessert. Compared to other fine dining restaurants in Mexico, this felt disappointing.
I first ordered a cocktail and later asked for a non alcoholic option. I asked the server if they could recommend something similar to what I had before. He pointed out the menu, which was fine, but then brought me a drink without checking back to see if I liked it. The mocktail was very thick and heavy, something like mango chili, and I honestly did not enjoy it at all. I still finished it, but it was not a pleasant drink.
They also brought bread as a starter, but the pastry tasted strongly like margarine, which was surprising and not what I would expect at this level.
The food itself was mixed. My boyfriend ordered a fish dish that was tasty, but the crust on top was not enjoyable. I ordered a beef and lamb dish, but the cauliflower purée flavor was barely noticeable and the chipotle was extremely subtle. I would not consider this an authentic Mexican restaurant. It was more experimental and interesting than traditional.
The foie gras crème brûlée was excellent and truly the highlight of the meal. However, even the espresso was charged separately, which felt excessive considering the overall bill.
Service details were lacking for a restaurant at this price point. When I asked a server to take our photo, the pictures were poorly taken, with a greasy camera lens, and no care was given. When I asked for sugar with my espresso, it arrived without a spoon. After asking again, a dessert spoon was provided instead of an espresso spoon.
At the end, dessert was presented on a mirror with small cakes and sorbet, which felt outdated and inconsistent. Our neighboring table was celebrating a birthday and received a much more generous presentation, while ours felt minimal.
We paid over 300 Canadian dollars, and unfortunately, the experience was not worth it. While the atmosphere and concept were good and the staff was polite, the food was average, portions were too small, and the service details did not meet fine dining standards.

What an incredible experience!! We went for my wife’s birthday and had the chef’s tasting menu, along with the wine pairing, and it was exquisite! Beautiful setting, live music by the pianist and violinist, and wonderful service, made for the perfect evening!

The food was wonderful, the service even moreso. Start to finish a wonderful evening. Make sure to check out the Chef’s wife’s boutique that is attached. Her jewelry is unique and beautiful, you can bring jewelry back to get it fixed, and her work is high quality!

Great food, nice atmosphere, and excellent service. They also have very good cocktails, beautifully prepared and full of flavor. The place itself is stunning — located right in the center of Puerto Vallarta, with a gorgeous garden that makes you forget you’re in the middle of the city.
There’s often live music, perfectly balanced so you can still talk and enjoy your meal. The combination of good food, a calm ambiance, and friendly staff makes it a wonderful place to spend the evening.
It’s a bit expensive, but absolutely worth it for the quality, the atmosphere, and the experience. Perfect spot for a romantic dinner or a special night out in Puerto Vallarta.

Our server Leonel and the staff at cafe des artistes made my birthday dinner incredibly special! Thank you so much! There was a festival going on where guest chefs “take over” another restaurants kitchen. When we dined where a chef that has a Michelin star restaurant in Hong Kong created majority of the dishes on our tasting menu. We sat in the garden terrace, it was a little bit cheesy with the violinist coming around and playing for people but I think a lot of restaurants do that in PV. Overall it was a lovely fine dining experience that was definitely worth it for a special occasion. Thank you!!
