Maybe I was somewhere else?

The location can't be beat. Go an hour before sunset for the best views. The ambiance and view are amazing. It's pricey and it's good, but it's not great. The tortilla soups and lobster bisque were good, but far from the best I've had. My red snapper didn't have much flavor and was overcooked. My partner's Chilean sea bass was delicious. The service was the most efficient and quick that we've ever had in PVR. Going out to eat here we've noticed is no short affair. It takes a while to get menus, order and forever for the food. Here it was the most timely we've experienced.

One of the best in PV

Awesome food and service. Great prices for the quality of the meals you get. Best pomegranate margarita I have had in my life, rimmed with paprika. Have been about 4 times and have like anything I have ever ordered. Flaming drinks. Great beach view, sunsets are beautiful, night brings out the torches for a romantic atmosphere.

Amaze your man...

I surprised my bf with the romantic beachside dinner they do here. It was 7 courses, with wine pairings at a private table on the beach. A beautiful setting, beautiful meal and an unforgettable experience. If you are goign with your significant other, do this...it wasn't that expensive either for how lavish it all was.

pricey but not to be missed

Just returned here and the food is as good as ever... The highlight is eating right on the beach. The pork tenderloin with goat cheese is not to be missed. This is also a great place for breakfast. Try the french toast

My favorite in PV

During our trip, we managed to eat here for all three meals: breakfast, lunch and dinner. We weren't disappointed. The menu is probably best said to be "continental cuisine", but there were a number of Mexican dishes on the menu too. The preparations were unique and enjoyable (for example, my eggs benedict on a corn meal based english muffin). The location is right on the beach and you can choose to sit out on tables out on the beach/patio which makes for good people watching. It's proximity to the gay beach makes it quite gay popular and a little eye candy during a meal never hurts.
