- KKarenVIPPuerto Vallarta •11 reviews5.0Dined 1 day agoThis was our first time to The Iguana, and it was absolutely incredible from the time we walked into the door to our lovely hostess, the view, the atmosphere, and our amazing server, Aldo. With Aldo’s incredible suggestions we enjoyed the squash blossoms, the pumpkin soup (mind blowing), the local fish and the Angus fillet. Thank you for giving us an amazing evening and looking forward to seeing you guys next year.

- 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! Super wonderful experience in Puerto Vallarta!More infoCafe des Artistes - Puerto VallartaPrice: Very Expensive• French• Puerto Vallarta•4.8
- RRonDenver / Colorado •3 reviews5.0Dined 5 days agoTop notch setting with the historic church within immediate view. Book prior to sunset and it's spectacular! A main dining area with domed painted ceilings and expansive patios for outside seating. Multiple talented violinists set a very romantic tone. Stay long enough and the Pirate Ship will shoot fireworks in front of the patio. We were not rushed and service was superb, the main entree was good, not great. My wife's octopus was slightly over done, not tough but not as tender as we have had at other world class places. My Seabass was also good, not great. Had better Seabass at Puro Peru. The atmosphere made up for the slight food issues. I felt the price was fair for our experience. Would go back and try some other menu items.More infoLa CappellaPrice: Very Expensive• Italian• Puerto Vallarta•4.8
- HHaydenSan Francisco Bay Area •8 reviews5.0Dined 6 days agoLa Palapa is hands-down our favorite dining spot in Puerto Vallarta. It’s the perfect place to catch a sunset, with stunning ocean views and an ambiance that strikes just the right balance between relaxed and elegant. The service here is consistently good—friendly, attentive, and warm without being overbearing. It’s clear the staff takes pride in creating a welcoming experience. The food is fun and approachable, offering a mix of flavors that never feels pretentious. Whether it’s a fresh seafood dish or a creative cocktail, everything is thoughtfully prepared and delicious. We make it a point to dine at La Palapa both at the beginning and end of every trip, and it never disappoints. It’s more than a meal; it’s part of the Puerto Vallarta experience.More infoLa Palapa RestaurantPrice: Very Expensive• International• Puerto Vallarta•4.7
