“A nice relaxing evening with great food and atmosphere”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed January 31, 2013

This may be our most favorite restaurant in the Puerto Vallarta area. Every meal we have had there has been excellent, and the staff are friendly, attentive and accomodating!

One recommendatio - go for the seafood, which is excellent. You may be disappointed and envious of others in your party. And try to save room for dessert. Nice selection, and they are delicious!

“Good italian food in Nuevo Vallarta”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed January 10, 2013

Very good Italian food in Nuevo Vallarta. Cant compare this to Italian food in NY or San Francisco, but very good for Mexico. Nice restaurant by the marina, good service. Top the evening off with the special Irish coffee and they will give you a great show. We were disappointed that we went on New Years Eve and the Concierge at Paradise Village told us it was the only restaurant available at the resort on our all inclusive besides the party. We found out after the bill came that it is NOT part of the all inclusive. Dinner for 2 adult and 2 children was $120USD. Really not worth it for that cost.

“The setting is perfect and the service is excellent”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed November 19, 2012

This Italian inspired restaurant is part of Paradise village resort, but set 5 minutes walk away so you're not impacted by the resort population.
The setting is amazing, right above the Nuevo Vallarta marina, with outside seating. the atmosphere is calming and great for late dinner with friends or a couple.
The reason they don't get a 5 is the first course of Scallops which was pretty shabby, they were very small and a bit rubbery, the main course 'Linguine Il Piscatore' was a solid 5 though, saving the impression.
The service was lovely with good knowledge of the wine list and the cuisine.

“Nice experience overall”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed July 20, 2012

We stayed at Paradise Village and would recommend this restaurant if you are in the area. The service was excellent and the atmosphere is nice with a view of the marina. The food was good, but not exceptional. I had a seafood linguini dish and really enjoyed the red sauce. My husband had the risotto and felt it was just ok. We split a ricotta cheesecake that we would pass on if we returned. However, we were hard pressed to find a really delicious dessert during our stay in Mexico.
