  • 1. La Ola

    $

    Fresh seafood including ceviche, tuna, and shrimp are to be found in this relaxed restaurant. The friendly staff and owners and surf decor (and sand that's often dragged in by surfers from the beach) makes for a relaxed vibe.

  • 2. Mediterraneo

    $$

    Serving Lebanese food right on the Nuevo Vallarta marina, this casual restaurant has been voted the best restaurant in Nuevo Vallarta several years in a row. Staple Lebanese dishes are great, but there's also pasta and  pizza any little one will enjoy.

    Paseo de la Marina 8, 63735, Mexico

    Known For

    • Pizza
    • Tabouleh
    • Kibbe
  • 3. Sonora al Sur

    $$

    Combine prime cuts from Sonora (Mexico's finest meat-producing state), a chef that has found the secret to grilling the perfect barbecue, and affordable rates, and you'll get this local favorite. The restaurant now has an indoor area with a/c, making it a comfortable place where to eat year round.

    Blvd. Nuevo Vallarta 64, Mexico
    322-297–0376

    Known For

    • All-you-can-eat buffet
    • Local favorite
    • Delicious barbecue
  • 4. Buonissimo

    $

    This trendy but casual café also offers lunch and dinner, but it's the breakfast people come here for. Patrons love the enchiladas, huevos al gusto, pastries, and good coffee, though the pizzas and salads served later in the day and into the night are also tasty. It's one of the few places that has a/c during the summer months. Did we mention they also have Italian-style ice cream?

    Paseo de las Palmas 3, Mexico
    322-125--4967

    Known For

    • Italian-style ice cream
    • Enchiladas
    • Pastries
  • 5. Dolce Vita

    $

    Fine Italian food can be found at any of the three locations of this well-known local business. Casual attire is expected, with the location in Nuevo Vallarta being somewhat fancier and ideal for either romantic dinners or family reunions.

    Paseo de las Palmas 2, 63735, Mexico
    322-297–0403

    Known For

    • Thin-crust pizzas
    • Excellent service
    • Gluten-free pasta

  • 6. Eddie's Place Nopal Beach

    $

    This restaurant is an institution among locals and visitors who know that there's more than just all-inclusive hotels in Nuevo Vallarta. Eddie’s Place is one of the few expat meeting points in the area. Go for the company, stay for the food.

    Blvd. Nayarit 70, 63735, Mexico
    322-297–4568

    Known For

    • Great marina views
    • Coconut shrimp with mango sauce
    • Exquisite kebabs (rare in PV)
  • 7. Mr. Cream Pancakes and Waffles

    $

    Chilaquiles, pancakes, waffles, baked goods, omelets … whatever you want for breakfast, they have it. This Nuevo Vallarta newcomer has been a total success and a great excuse to leave your nearby hotel to eat good food any given morning. It tends to be full on Sunday, so reservations are a good idea.

  • 8. Rincón de Buenos Aires

    $$

    The setting, an L-shaped covered patio with kids' play equipment in the center, is Mexican, but the food here is pure Argentine flavor. Every cut of meat is grilled over mesquite, from the steaks to Angus prime rib. The adventurous yet tasty chinchulines (tender tripe appetizers) and chorizo turnovers certainly are authentic. Rice, veggies, and other sides must be ordered separately. Italian dishes and a few non-Argentine things like salmon and chicken dishes are also available. Come for a late lunch (it opens only after 2 pm) or dinner.

    Blvd. Nayarit 25, 63732, Mexico
    322-297–4950

    Known For

    • Mesquite-grilled meat
    • Authentic Argentine cuisine
    • Italian dishes
