Commment about Thierry's Prime Steakhouse


Thierry strikes again

Thierry Blouet strikes gold once again with his version of a very fine upscale steak house but offering much more like chicken, pork and fish. We had a divine time with seared tuna and delicious short ribs. Wonderful but save up your pesos!

Commment about El Arrayan


El Arrayan...true Mexican

Forget the fajitas, blended margaritas, burgers and fries, this place serves the real thing. Carmen, my sweetheart, hails from a mexico City family and she set up shop here preparing the old recipes and adding some newer twists, like Slow Food. I love this place. Try to go on a Sat. night for some live soft music while you dine around the arrayan tree.

Commment about El Tacón del Marlin


Smoked Marlin!!!

Smoked marlin in Puerto Vallarta is hard to beat than here. I have made this my airport stopover, on the way back stateside as a fond memory of seafood. Tacon is sort of like a big burrito deep fried and loaded inside with marlin, shrimp, fish or octopus. Heaven on earth. Be sure to check the family's old B&W photos on the wall, showing their fine prizes from decades past. They now have 3 operations, so look them up. I have the addresses in my guide.
