Dinning out is quite different here than in most other resorts.  All the hotels have pleasant restaurants, and sampling them is a good way to get to know some of the other beautiful hotels in town.  There are also several fun spots to lunch by the river called “El Cuale”.

When evening comes, after a day spent on the beach or just relaxing, you can choose from all kinds of bars in the dowtown to watch the sunset accompanied by a cold, soft drink or Mexican beer or simply watch the sunset from a little hideaway on the boardwalk “Malecon”.  Soon, the idea of a relaxed dinner sounds very appealing.

Despite the variety of night time activities that Puerto Vallarta offers, dinner alone can be a memorable evening.  You would certainly found delicious broiled lobster, oyster, shrimp and fish which are big specialties here.  You also have a wide choice of Mexican and international dishes.

In addition to good hotel dining, there are many restaurants close by; many of them family operated.  It's fun to explore the town and sample what's available.  During peak tourist season, it's best to call ahead for reservations.
