Really good seafood, great portion sizes. The fish tacos were excellent. The shrimp enchiladas were good with lots of shrimp, the sauce was a bit salty for my taste. The guacamole was quite good too. The service was friendly and the atmosphere is fun- all outdoors. Good place to go to get off resort.

Nice close restaurant near the condo we were staying at. I had the soup as pictured. It was made very well, had great seasoning. And I don't feel they skimped. Slightly higher price than most of the restaurants in the area. And that's because most of the items they serve is fish items. But everything seemed to be made fresh. And they did take credit card.

Had the most amazing dinner here! We had a slight hiccup, between our hotels concierge and the restaurant our reservation couldn't be found BUT they were super help and accommodating about it. We had a drink at the bar and in a few minutes they arranged a table for us. "Nacho" our waiter was hilarious and made the evening so fun! I had the dynamite seafood and will say that it was incredible! 10/10 guys!!! Service Dine in Meal type Dinner Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5

Ok. So this place is one of the best resturants in town. They have 2 locations one in Nuevo and the other Puerto Vallarta. The food is always amazing, great staff, and great service. So many wonderful items on the menu. This is a must try. Thank you for never disappointing! Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5

This was our group’s favorite place to eat of many places that we visited during our stay. The service was amazing, seated us quickly and we were eating within 20 minutes of being seated. Everyone enjoyed what they got, with three of the couples sharing the Molcoaete. Which was amazing! We had multiple tables suggest it to us and we weren’t disappointed. Tried the same entree at Eddie’s down the street and was very disappointed. The Elbaracuda also takes credit which isn’t an option at many restaurants we visited.

I just couldn't believe it.... We arrived at the restaurant on Thursday night and had to wait for a table. We waited for 15 minutes before we were seated. The wait staff was extremely attentive even though they were super busy. The food was served piping hot and the flavor was on point. The cost of the meal was not out of line at all. We returned 4 days later, our waiter from the previous visit recognized us immediately. He not only remembered what we liked to drink, but also remembered the particularities of our orders (avacado on the side, no tomatoes, etc). It amazes me that their customer service is so good that this can happen. (Especially when they are so busy) Top notch place. We will return often.

First time and last time in this restaurant, the ambience is very good , fill with people , line up in the entrance , everything was looking good and then : - we order the chicharrón de pescado they said that is a pound of fish , but , the plate has little pieces of fish and I doubt it was a pound of fish there and the price $ 350 pesos = 30 CND dollars ? Not even in canada !! - I ordered as second dish a arrachera steak with Shrimps , the side dish was French fries , just , another disappointment, the steak was maybe 100 grams and perhaps 7 shrimps and fries , Nothing special for another $ 350 pesos = 30 CND dollars , the total bill for 4 was $ 180 CND , really ?? Not worth it . Service Dine in Meal type Dinner Price per person $100–200 Food: 3 Service: 4 Atmosphere: 5
