The 25 Best Restaurants in Puerto Vallarta, Mexico | Eater

"It takes a lot to stand out in Puerto Vallarta’s taco scene, but this taquería in the Versalles neighborhood won over a loyal clientele almost immediately. Part of the Joel Ornelas restaurant group, the restaurant is run by Ornelas’s mother, Ana Martina García. The menu only offers five items: the flagship pork belly tacos, pork belly in salsa verde, bean and panela cheese tacos, quesadillas, and guacamayas (Guanajuato-style tortas filled with crispy chicharrón, except served on sourdough Jalisco-style crusty birote salado rolls). The tortillas are made from local heirloom blue corn, and El Puerco de Oro may have the most epic salsa counter in town." - Paola Briseño-González

I feel satisfied with their tacos ‘pork belly’ and the tacos ‘pork belly with green sauce’. I’m so happy that I can have them before I have to go back home. The pork belly is crispy and delicious, very good flavour, it won’t be too salty, not oily, which is very good.👍 The kitchen is so open that you can see every step the lady’s are doing, once you are there you got a vibe ‘mama is here!’, most importantly, the kitchen is very clean. The eating area is also very open, enough space to enjoy the food, good air circulation. I find no reason no coming back😝

The crispy pork belly immediately caught my eye while exploring restaurants in Versalles, so I decided to give this place a try. I arrived early at lunchtime, and it wasn’t too busy, which made for a relaxed experience. I sampled several dishes: the pork belly taco, the pork belly in green salsa taco, and the grilled pork head meat taco. Each was flavorful, both on its own and paired with the excellent selection of condiments. I also tried the pickled pork trotters, which were quite good. To top it off, I ordered a cheese crust on a large tortilla filled with pork belly—an indulgent and delicious choice. The restaurant itself is modern, bright and clean, with a friendly and welcoming staff. If you’re a fan of pork, especially pork belly, this is definitely the place for you.

Loved this place! I feel like it's a hidden gem, in a quiet part of town, with nice airy seating and kind and friendly staff. We visited twice during our week long stay, and are sending all our friends when they're in town. The salsas are (insert chef's kiss), the pork nice and crispy, and the tortillas fresh. Definitely looking forward to our next trip. ♥️ I wish I had better pictures, but we were too busy eating!

This has become one of my favorite lunch spots! The new digs are bright and spacious, and everything is clean and organized. The pork belly tacos are outstanding, and service is prompt, though at times it takes a while to get your bill at the end when they are busy.

We tried 3 different tacos here. All of them are good but I will recommend the crunchy one and the one with the green sauce.

Was in search of some carnitas for my dad and so glad we found this hidden gem!place is away from the tourist stuff...lots of locals! The tacos are so freaking delicious...super affordable...customer service is great...the place is small but cute and clean...they have like 4 tables inside and a sitting area outside. Handmade purple corn tortillas...lots of different salsas for your tacos...habanero salsa was fire super spicy! Everyone agreed to definitely come back! So if you want something different try this place you won't regret it!
