- NNeilVIPCalgary / Southern Alberta •4 reviews5.0Dined 1 day agoOutstanding food and service experience. Al Fresco dining was divine, two musicians created a delightful background music effect, while random fireworks could be seen over Banderas Bay (as close as the Malecón and as far away as the Marina near Shangri-La). The combination of tasty tapas (good sized portions), professional and attentive service (gracias Jesus - our server), and expansive rooftop views (top two floors, 4th and 5th, access via elevator) created an extremely favourable impression reminiscent of two other dining favourites, namely La Capella and Hacienda San Angel. Bravo Barcelona Tapas on your continued success.More infoBarcelona Tapas - Puerto VallartaPrice: Very Expensive• Spanish• Puerto Vallarta•4.8

- AAllisenVIPLos Angeles •20 reviews5.0Dined 4 days agoAbsolutely perfect! Unbelievable service! Great food! I highly recommend upgrading to the garden experience. You can either order the fixed price menu, or à la cart. But you just have to guarantee you will spend a certain amount per person. The Garden experience was well worth it, especially if you think you’re already going to spend a decent amount of money on food and drinks. Nobody does birthdays better than Cafe des Artistes!

- CCrispinMiami - Dade •18 reviews5.0Dined on 29 Jan 2025Absolutely the best sushi in Puerto Vallarta, rivals even my favorite high-end sushi restaurants in New York City and London and San Francisco, at a fraction of those prices! Yes, it is expensive for here, but it’s the real deal and so fresh and so many wonderful options to add on– amazing bartender, and mixologist kind service all around excellent experience.
