The 18 Best Restaurants & Bars In Puerto Vallarta - Puerto Vallarta - The Infatuation

"You should spend your days in Puerto Vallarta sipping cold beer and eating deliciously fresh oysters from a bed of ice. Do all of that and more at La Docena, where they have plenty of seats to sit, cool down, and do some people-watching at the iconic Malecon boardwalk while the sun goes down. Order some pinguino cocktails, a drink made with vodka and white wine or rosé, and take in the unobstructed view of the Malecon and the sunset. The bar that’s decorated with beer caps might just inspire you to do an unhinged DIY project when you get back home." - debora mestre

While strolling down the boardwalk in Puerto Vallarta with the beach just steps away, my family and I were looking for a place to grab a bite. My parents specifically wanted oysters, so when we came across Oyster Grill, it felt like the perfect spot to stop. The restaurant has a really nice atmosphere—open, airy, and with a beautiful view overlooking the beach. It’s definitely not the cheapest option on the malecón, but the setting and presentation make it feel like more of an upscale experience. We started with two dozen oysters, and I was pleasantly surprised. They were on the smaller side, which I actually prefer, and they were incredibly fresh and flavorful. The Oyster Rockefeller ended up being the standout of the meal for me—rich, savory, and cooked just right. If you’re an oyster fan, this is definitely the dish to try. We also ordered the shrimp ceviche. It was decent and tasted fresh, but nothing particularly memorable. Wanting something else to snack on, we asked for chips and salsa, which turned out to be a bit of a disappointment. Instead of a basket of chips, we got two oversized chips and some crackers, which felt a little odd and not really worth ordering. As for the service, it was okay overall. There was a bit of a language barrier at times, but the staff was polite, patient, and tried their best to make sure we had what we needed. The food took a reasonable amount of time to come out, and we never felt rushed despite the restaurant being fairly busy. All in all, Oyster Grill offered a solid dining experience with some genuinely delicious oysters and a great beachfront view. While not everything we ordered hit the mark, the highlights were good enough for me to say it’s worth a visit—especially if you’re craving oysters and want to enjoy them with the ocean right in front of you.

We went half hr before sunset and got a table right by the windows, was amazing! Service was great, after having the oysters, our table was wet from the ice so they changed the paper table cover for us even though all we had left was our coconut to drink! Food was great, nice change from all the heavy usual Mexican food like tacos, Birria, tortas that we have been having. Make sure you’re done dinner before 8ish pm though because the clubs next door are crazy loud once they start up

Wonderful food (oysters, shrimp, po-boy, all great). Staff was excellent and very understanding of those of us traveling with a 16 month old. The location is great being right on the Malecon and the restaurant itself is gorgeous. Highly recommend if you're looking for a good seafood spot in PV.

Hey there, this is GeniePam 🧞‍♀️ visiting from Dubai 🇦🇪 originally from 🇲🇽 with my partner in crime from 🇩🇪 This spot is right at The Malecon, making it a perfect place to enjoy great vibes and fresh seafood. Their seafood is super fresh, and the oyster bar is fantastic, you can see the oysters and pick your favorites. Don't miss the "Balazo" shot, which combines vodka, spicy sauce, and oysters - trust me, you have to try it at least once! Pair it with some local beers and just relax, soaking up the lively atmosphere and beautiful views If you’d like more recs & spots all around the globe 🌍 check me out IG: @iamgeniepam

The food tastes good and the service is nice, but the portions are too small. What I really don’t like is that the water they sell is the stingiest I’ve ever seen in a restaurant—it’s almost half the size of what other restaurants provide. The bottle is tiny, and even the drink I ordered came in a mini cup that could be finished in one sip. It’s already hot here, and people need to drink water. We can understand that food portions might be smaller because of high costs, but water doesn’t cost much. Couldn’t you at least serve bigger glasses of water more generously?

The grilled oysters are out of this world. I love raw oysters too but grilled oysters are more difficult to find this place does them fantastic! We got the Butter & Parsely and the Truffle Oyster…… I don’t even have words. But the whole menu has great ceviche & tostadas.

What an amazing time. We went for New Year's Eve and the whole experience was, well, amazing. :) Our waiters were extremely personable and checking in on use just enough to make us feel we were being taken care of but also not being watched. I can't praise the food enough. It was a special pre-fix menu but I don't think that changes the quality. Appetizer of salad and fresh tuna. Fish main and second main of lamb. Dessert of a sponge cake kind of flan lava cake. Wow! When I come back to visit I'm definitely going back

Middling. The ambience is awesome with not much people traffic from the Malecon. The staff attentive and not overly solicitous. My second time here for lunch and late lunch. The oyster were swimming in "butter," after draining into bowl and adding lime- oil still dominant flavor. The Bluefin tuna, tostada was muddied flavor (unfortunate) and poorly presented, the crab role was dry though the mayonnaise leaked at the bottom of the mostly brioche sandwich bread & Shrimps with Chiltepin was dry and over grilled.

We have been to La Docena in Mexico City and Guadalajara, and each time had a wonderful experience. We were really looking forward to this dinner...Unfortunately this location in PV was just not up to their standards. We had a reservation and got seated on time. The restaurant was half empty, but it still took 15 minutes for someone to greet us at the table. After ordering drinks, it took another 15 minutes to get them. The food also took painfully long. Everything we ordered was ok, but didn't have the freshness we expected. We had to flag down the server to get more drinks, which again took a long time. The server did seem very flustered, as some things were out of his control. They just really need some better training there. It was also located next to a bar that was playing extremely loud music, which really hurt the ambience. While I will happily return to their other locations, I will not be returning here.

Came here with a reservation for 10 people. The ambience is great, located in the busy zona romantica right in front of the water. It was night time so we could not see the water but the breeze was nice! The restaurant is decorated nicely and they were playing great house music the entire time. We ordered two dozens of raw oysters and a dozen of grilled oysters. The raw oysters were amazing and tasted very fresh- not fishy at all! The grilled oysters lacked flavor for me especially the Rockefeller ones. For my entre I ordered the lonja de percado zarandeada and it was delicious! Perfectly cooked and so so flavorful. I also really liked the small portion but I know that this may be an issue for others. My sister ordered the charred octopus and mentioned that she thought it was too charred. Overall I think the group enjoyed this place but no one was blown away by it. Like others have mentioned, this place is a little pricey for the area. In total it came out to about $50 per person with appetizers and a round of drinks included.

I absolutely loved this restaurant. We ordered a half dozen oysters because we were somewhat skeptical, but my partner and I later agreed we should have ordered more. The BLUE CRAB TOSTADA IS TO DIE FOR! I cannot stop raving about it or thinking about it. Juicy lump crab, soft avocado, etc... The service and cocktails were great as well. Please stop by if you're in PV.

On October 30th mid afternoon only two tables of 4 there. We were the 3rd table of 5 people. Full Staff yet we waited almost 1 hour for our food. Our child was starving and the plates came out at different times. My burger finally came and it was RAW ! The bar is nice and waited another 20 minutes for the waitress to come by to order another round . HORRIBLE SERVICE. HORRIBLE EXPERIENCE to everyone else that came after us. The place looks nice but don't let it fool you. Yes, we waited almost 25 minutes and asked the waitress 3 times for the tab. Never ever return, we are locals with tourists that we are entertaining. No excuse!!!!

Our family had 3 birthdays in August so we celebrated in this amazing establishment!!! We wanted the night time vibe of the neighborhood community! It did not disappoint! We people watched and heard music from other restaurants but it somehow blended into a good time! Staff were friendly and welcoming to all of us. They were very patient with the language barrier at times. Our orders were not messed up so communication on both of us go us through. I ordered baby octopus w black rice, another octopus dish with sweet potatoes crisps. My BIL ordered some type of whole fish I just don't remember the name. It was huge and beautiful in presentation! We almost didn't want to touch this work of art...but we did! Lol spices/ seasoning was so good! The fish's flavor was fresh and we tried to figure it out but that was impossible so we enjoyed it all the way to the bone! The fish was big enough for all 8 to have a taste! The steaks were good! Octopus w black rice was delicious! I honestly was enjoying my family so I'll ask for pictures later! You will not be disappointed. After dinner, it was a cool night with a slight breeze from the ocean. We went to a few bars and enjoyed the night life! We'll be back again!

This place was soooo good! It's in the Romantic Zone of Puerto Vallarta. You can people watch as you eat your meal. AND, they had a dark beer! WINNING. Along with that was the amazing octopus they served with the most delicious aioli sauce. It's is also served amongst a bed of sweet potato chips. They were good too! And of course, you cannot eat at an Oyster establishment without having oysters! The lemon, garlic oysters were the best! So fresh, light and tasty! The place is open, meaning you have a fresh breeze flowing through. The only thing I did not care for (which seems to be the norm in Puerto Vallarta) is asking for a tip. There's one woman who goes around taking all payments and asked, would you like to leave a tip. Again, I'm a tipper. However, it was irritating to be constantly asked for tips. The baby octopus was the bomb tho.

By far our favorite restaurant during our 10 day trip to PV. We had dinner there twice. Good service and right on the Malecon. Our favorites are the Rockafeller Oysters and the Tuna Shishimi. Good wait staff and actually the price was very affordable.

Had half dozen mixed raw oysters, Peruvian ceviche, and a mojito. Wow. The oysters were fresh, crisp, and delicious. Ceviche was a great mix of sour, herbal, and salty. Mojito was refreshing. Update: went back and had another half dozen raw oysters, and half a dozen grilled. Delicious! The ribeye burger was really flavorful, the blue fin tuna ceviche fresh, and the dulce de lece was nice and rich.

The food here is exquisite. My husband always gets the dozen oysters of all the varieties, and he is always so very happy with his order. I had the Barbacoa taco and the polenta appetizer. They were both incredibly flavorful and delicious. You can tell that it's all made to order and it's fresh. The staff was very patient accommodating to our request as a large group. They also have great cocktails, and other drinks. The ambience cannot be matched! You have an incredible view of the ocean and it's an open air outdoor patio scene. It's gorgeous and you can see all of the oysters in the grill. We love this place and we always come back here every time we visit Puerto Vallarta!

People say touristy, I say ambiance. The best meal we have had in a nice restaurant in a while. San Blas oysters. Smaller and sweet, served with two different flavors of vinegar. Tuna ceviche. Tried hard not to lick the bowl. Every once in awhile a chile had a little kick. The grilled red snapper served with a roasted tomato salsa was amazing. Served whole with homemade tortillas. The grilled baby octopus was tender, had nice flavor and was served with a tartar sauce and thin slices of fried sweet potatoes. A lemonade, not too sweet with a tajin like salt to complement. Right on the Malecón next to some very loud clubs. You cannot hear these inside the oyster restaurant. Out waiter spoke fluent English and was extremely professional.

Went there for a late lunch. Had heard about the oysters, so needed to try them. So good! I did six of the raw and six off the cooked. The cooked ones were sautéed in butter and parsley. I always put a couple drops of Tabasco on each one. Gone in ten minutes. The bartenders were great. On my way out, I saw a couple having prawns and tuna. If I wax still seated, I would have ordered those as well. The prawns were huge! Right off the beach. Great view snd great value!

My new favorite place in Puerto Vallarta, and I've been to this city many times and eaten all over. Definitely more like U.S. prices, but you absolutely get what you pay for here. It's not just the location. A beautiful, airy patio with a view of the Malecón and the ocean. I could spend all day listening to the water and people watching here. Lovely staff that's super attentive without being clingy. Great little wine menu that pairs perfectly with their food. Refreshing craft cocktails (not just your typical margarita list -- but more gin & tonics and such). Absolutely the must tries are the clams. If you like fresh, cold seafood (like oysters), get this first! The "chocolata" and "reina" are both amazing: huge live clams, chopped up and put into a delicious little bath of lemon, oil, salt and maybe something else. Super fresh-tasting and something I could eat every day (and probably will)! And nothing like I've tried elsewhere. Oysters are great of course! Raw or grilled available. Scallop and blue crab dish is also amazing if you like ceviche flavors on super fresh seafood. For a hangover, nothing better than their chicharrón though (crispy, fatty, delicious pork). Also great veggie options like grilled heart of palm. Will add once I've tried everything else ;)

Dope place to come and watch the pirate ship and fireworks from. Open concept dining with ceiling to window views all open. I was recommended to this place by a friend who visited. I enjoyed a dozen char boiled oysters and some sparking water with lime as I awaited the fireworks. Oysters were fresh and service was quick and fast. I wish I would've had time to see what else this place had to offer but I was tired from walking all day. Very conveniently located on the malećon so you can't miss it.

Went there for dinner. The oysters was pretty good. We ordered a dozen and had a mix of the types. Pretty fresh, although one tastes a bit weird like it's bad. But I didn't get sick. So grateful. Ordered the oyster Po Boy and that was really good. Not a lot of oysters though. Like only 4. My BF ordered the steak and it looks good. He said the steak was burnt on the outside and pretty raw on the inside. He asked for it to be cooked medium.

It's a bit expensive for puerto vallarta . The whole meal is like 2000 pesos. But the food is pretty good! For the raw oysters, small ones are fishy but the big one is sweet and creamy! And the grilled oyster. Obsessed. Artichoke and the octopus ceviche is just okay tho. No much and flavor to eat for the artichoke. And ceviche sauce is a bit too salty. 4/5 for these two dishes. The decor is really cool ! Open space and full ocean view. Will be a nice place to have early dinner, enjoy sunset and food at the same time.

Good oysters and cold beers! The service is excellent, super nice staff. The restaurant is clean. They are still currently implementing wearing a mask from the door to the table (just an fyi it's 3/22). The view from the inside is great, what you come to PV for! I would recommend trying the oysters and a beer or two over looking the ocean in old town.

Tourist trap! DO NOT TRUST THE PAID REVIEWS We went for oysters. The presentation was very nice however the oysters were warm and smelled of rot and fish ( a tell tale sign they were old). We had ONE each and spit it out. Rancid. Also they were ALL unattached from their shells Which is also a sign they have been preserved and or served from a can and placed on a shell which is quite common in PV. When we sent the oysters back the rude waitress threatened us that if we did not pay for them she would send the security detail after us. She then insisted we eat them and started to get very flustered and yelled "THESE ARE FINE AND YOU WILL PAY FOR THEM" I started to record her which caused her stormed off. So unprofessional.

WOW!! Everything is so fresh, and full of flavor.. I wish we had more restaurant like this in California! We stopped by this restaurant on 02/20/22. We shared many plates, and everything was delicious. We ordered the Tuna entree and it was paired with a teriyaki sauce and cauliflower purée, we were doubting the pairings but everything complimented the tuna so well. We loved the sweet potato shavings that were served with the pulpo, but the Aguachile de Camarón was our FAVORITE. The service was excellent, the restaurant is well staffed and the staff quickly remove your dishes as you finish. Drinks were great! Next time that we are in PV, we will be back!

Back again! Love the food and I will say this time the service was slower than usual.. I don't get it feel like it's the same story this moth at other place as well. Any way, oysters are fresh they are "centro" priced but very fresh and delicious don't mind paying these prices when it's this good and fresh. Ordered the Lonja De Pescado Sarandiada and I loved it! This place is clean and the food is great!

Some of the best seafood I have EVER had! Came in with a party of 6. Ordered a dozen oysters as an app, we had 2 orders of the 1/2 kilo shrimp, the baby octopus, po'boys, etc, and everything was 5/5. The servers are extremely attentive. Food was of high quality and I was shocked to see them cooking everything on a charcoal grill! You don't see that so often. Maybe that's why the flavor in everything was so wonderful. The location of this restaurant is prime. Right next to the main boulevard, and has great views of the water. If you're looking for a terrific seafood experience in the heart of the city, this is your spot!

Had a night out with some friends so we got a big table. This crew is ready to serve! We were well-taken care of from start to finish! We tasted a bottle of wine that had turned and they quickly found a replacement. They even refilled our wine glasses as they emptied. The food was delicious with generous portions. The fries were crispy and served in a cone so they stayed hot! The fish was fresh, the steak was tender. The ambient pleasant modern music was at a decent volume level so we could talk and still tap our feet. We'll be back!

Don't waste your time. I don't know how it got so many good reviews. We heard the place was really good. We arrived around 7:30 for dinner, still fairly early. It was a comedy of errors. The first of seven of us ordered the grilled fish and was told there was no grilled fish left. Then we asked for the bluefin Tuna tataki. Were told they were completely out of tuna. OK, a seafood restaurant that has no fish. So the next person ordered chicken and was told there was no chicken. So we finally asked, "what do you have?" They said they had steak, so I ordered the skirt steak. By the time the next person ordered steak, they said they had no more. This place is a joke. Everything that came out from the chips to the one fish they did have was completely oily. The food here is not good, but it doesn't matter because they're out of everything. One person didn't order, because there was nothing left on the menu that he likes. The other four of us finished what we were able to scrape up from the menu. 30 minutes after our four dinners were eaten and cleared, the two last dinners finally arrived to the table . Not even an apology. Not even a free drink. Nothing to make up for this travesty. Don't waste your time and money. Go someplace where you can actually eat. Try Joe Jacks. They are fantastic and 100 times better than this oyster dive. Here's a clue I missed. Look around at the tables. No locals eat here. That should tell you something. They make all their money from unsuspecting tourists.

Pet friendly restaurant with amazing food, vast alcohol selection and a view. The tuna tar tar should be ordered. 5 stars for that alone. I wasn't going to go for it until my server recommended it. Wow. Fresh and plenty! But I still ordered two. The oysters are very fresh. I highly recommend trying them. They have a great selection of wine, tequila, and mezcal. In fact it was my first time trying mezcal here. I must say what sets this place apart is their service. The people are very friendly and happy to help you out. Go visit and enjoy!

So I got a dozen oyster Rockefeller plus 2 oyster shooters and 2 mechiladas ! My friends got 2 more dozens plus 1 shooter and 3 drinks and a shrimp cocktail!! The shooters were great !!

EXTREMELY PRICEY Here are a couple of examples - One street taco for $10 USD - One dozen grilled oysters for $30 The only items perhaps worth getting here are the cheap beers and otherwise enjoying the ambiance

Nice indoor/outdoor ambiance. Go early before the music from the clubs a few doors down cranks up LOUD. The music is so loud you won't be able to enjoy your dinner with the windows of the restaurant open. They do close the windows when the music starts. Great views of the ocean. The food was good. The red snapper was seasoned well and came with a sauce on the side. That brought it up a level. The oysters were ok.

Best place we ate during our week in PV and hands down one of the most flavorful meals I have ever had in my life...gotta spring for the Blue Fin Tuna Tataki! It was exceptional and perfectly prepared by the chef, if I closed my eyes I'd swear I was eating a slice of wagyu beef. I've also had the fish tacos here and they were delicious as well, my wife enjoyed the seafood cocktail. Drinks are great (the Soda Mate Collins is cool and refreshing) and the staff is amazing. I simply cannot recommended this place enough! Good music, great food and ocean breezes...what more could you ask for!

Craving oysters but a bit reluctant to indulge when from southern waters I decided to give this restaurant a shot Super location on the Malecon and I was warmly greeted by a server and given a great seat overlooking the ocean and beach Went with a tray of three or was it four different varieties of oysters and they came nicely presented on a tray of ice Well they were all excellent and so fresh tasting I ordered another tray of the type I liked best. A total taste treat and sure filled my oyster desires And no after effects at all then or next day which I have encountered sometimes in the past Even added a nice flan dessert to top the meal Will return for sure and I have added to my list of must go restaurants in PV All and all a wonderful afternoon meal Jim from Maplelag in Minnesota

What an awesome, modern restaurant. Found the place while walking through the boardwalk. We just had the seafood and drinks. Started off with the Mezcal Serrano drinks, perfect and refreshing drink. Then we had fried calamari, which had a perfect taste and crisp ones. The ceviche peruano, ostiones Chingon, and aguachile was perfect. The presentation on both were amazing as well as the taste. I would definitely come back to this restaurant!

As they occupy what many believe to be the best physical dining location in all of Vallarta, we were Excited to try what replaced the prior Union. Unfortunately, for us, it will be a one and done. We understand that their premium location comes with some increased overhead.....but two domestic beers (can't recall if they were 60 or 65 each) and one smallish order of crab fingers was 550MP (plus tip of course). Wait staff although very friendly, missed One of the critical requirements of sharing what is NOT available BEFORE you order it...came to try the oyster po-boy, but they were not available.. We wish them well, but they have a lot of fine tuning to do in our opinion if they are going to be successful for the long run.

We heard this place was new on the boardwalk and my hub wanted his 2nd dose of fresh oyster since COVID shut down our lives. This was very covid safe. We had a awesome view of the water and the place is extremely clean and well laid out. The service was highly attentive. But I know you want to hear about the food. I am not the oyster expert, far from it, but hubs review is these were extremely superb, fresh and the right amount of brine. I had grilled artichokes that were very nice and the calamari was a good flavor but not my cup of tea. But I have rave about the gazpacho, one of the best I have had. This place is getting a rare 5 star because nothing was over looked. Wish I would have slowed down to take pics, oh well will have to good back for that.

A great place for fresh oysters and seafood. The staff is friendly and attentive. Not very expensive for the amount of food, great variety. Definitely would recommend!

It was my birthday trip and I was excited to try this restaurant. Unfortunately, we had a terrible experience. This place use to be known as the Cerveceria Union. The hostess was a bit off putting when we walked in but we decided to over look her negativity and enjoy the meal and view. The oysters were delicious but the mixed ceviche was inedible. We sent it back immediately because it wasn't fresh. We proceeded to enjoy the oysters and cocktail. Despite us sending the ceviche back, we were charged. The manager said it was edible for her so she was unwilling to remove from our bill. I was shocked and appalled because we literally didn't even have one bite. Be warned. The oysters are tasty and the view was great but the mixed ceviche and customer service was subpar.
