My husband & I decided to go for HH hour at Qulture at Venustiano Carranza 466. The bartender greeted us with a welcome back! I was amazed the he remembered us from our visit in January. I had a very well-crafted Margarita on the rocks and my husband had a beer. We ordered the coconut shrimp appetizer. This dish was very good & very good value. It cost $110 p which is half the cost of this dish at most places, There were six good sized shrimp on a bed of shredded cabbage. It was served with a spicy orange marmalade sauce. I could not believe that place is not packed. Especially at HH when most of their drinks menu are discounted up to 50%! We will definitely return to Qulture on future trips to PV.

A friend and I went here more for the food than the art but we surprised ourselves. Everywhere you looked was something to feast your eyes on. Eclectic, to rustic, to modern, old, recycled, art t in little rooms on second and first floor surrounding dining area along with a knockout, feast your eyes upon me bar.
We had planned to sit at a table but opted, in the end, to sit at the bar. Smokers yes there is an area of the bar where you can smoke. I was not thrilled, even though I am a total dog lover that a dog, small as can be and very well behaved but sitting at a bar stool, just I rather sit on a barstool after a dog has sat there.
The art rooms and such were quite unusual and amazing and so fun to just browse, there was one painting that if I could have afforded or had a place to put it, I would have bought in a second as it was related to breast cancer and quite unique and Powerful.
Gabriel and Oscar were our bartenders/ waiters and they were friendly and kind and helpful. Their service was above par! I had an excellent margarita here and they have the stainless steel straws. Good for the environment but not to my liking. Not a problem, so I did without a straw.
My friend and I started with appetizers of Coconut shrimp on coleslaw for 110 pesos. Oh my so yummy, best I have had as yet in PV. I would go back just for drinks and an appetizer, oh and maybe a dessert. Wait until you hear about the dessert!
Next up we had Proscuitto wrapped chicken with roasted dill potatoes for 220 pesos. We shared this and they split the plates for us in advance of serving. Lip smacking good. This restaurant is on my return to list with a star and on my bring newbie's here!
We talked a lot to Gabriel, the bartender and he said we had to try a dessert. He had one brought over as a surprise and it was Chocolate Avocado Mouse, It was amazing.
Now wait, then appeared the most delightful, delicious-looking dessert in a corn husk, that Gabriel insisted we try, well it was just incredible and the presentation was "killer". The name needs improvement as I would never order Chocolate Bread Pudding, this needs as unique a name as its taste and presentation. It was absolutely awesome, delicious and a feast for the eyes and taste buds. Decadent, chocolate and Just yummy, yummy! Plus all the while feeling and looking very Mexican with the corn husk wrapping like a tamale!
This was just a great meal, drinks, dessert, ambience, service and friendliness of the staff that we were totally enthused and cannot wait to return.
This place is a definite must go to.. even if just for drinks and dessert, though the Coconut appetizer was to die for! Do not miss this one!

Of the 20-plus visits I have made to Puerto Vallarta, this one has been the best for discovering wonderful dining experiences. And, on our last night in the Zona Romantica, we discovered this gem — the best of all.
Qulture is located in a beautiful colonial style hacienda which has been converted into art galleries and artists’ studios. The restaurant is in the former courtyard. The building now is covered, so weather is not a problem. It is located a little out of the more touristy part of the Zona Romantica, but is well worth the short walk.
The building is beautiful, the restaurant and bar are gorgeous, but, most importantly, the food was superb. Masha had the grilled salmon, her favorite dish, and said it was cooked perfectly. She is a tough critic on salmon dishes, so that was a huge compliment. I had one of the weekly specials, a filet, which again was cooked perfectly and accompanied by excellent mashed potatoes and perfectly cooked vegetables.
The service was excellent and the prices were very reasonable. Coupled with the absolutely wonderful food, it could not have been a better evening.
Don’t hesitate to spend a wonderful evening dining here!

Just walking past and peeked in and saw such an attractive place to eat. A circular bar is in the center and the walls filled with various artwork. There are small gallery rooms both upstairs and down. The restaurant is on the street level. The kitchen
chef area is completely visible.
There were 6 of us and we were lucky enough to hit Happy Hour! I ordered the grilled salmon ($17). It was a good sized portion and done perfectly (I chose medium). You have a choice of 2 sides. I picked garlic mashed potatoes and grilled asparagus, also very good.
My guy had the BBQ pork sliders . It's nice that you can order 1, 2, or 3 (3 were $8) with a small additional cost to add a salad (45 pesos) The pork was tender with a nice sauce. There wasn't one person in our group that didn't like their food.
The service was friendly but a bit disorganized. One person's bottled water never arrived after asking twice then got charged for it. We had to have our 3 separate bills adjusted probably because mid-meal additional drinks were ordered and a different server showed up.
Then another day, two of us went for lunch and split a hamburger and fries. It was about a half pound, so glad we split! They do season the meat--it was good, but I prefer a more plain burger.
I'll go back for the salmon and to peruse some more of the artwork.

We so wanted to love this place, but there are a number of things that need to be worked out. Concept is super cool. Courtyard restaurant surrounded by small art galleries. Top marks for Gabriel. He is the greeter, order taker, payment taker. It seems like he is trying to do it all. And possibly some of the other staff need better training. We waited a really, really long time for everything; and we are not the type that needs everything pronto. Food has potential, but everything we ordered was overcooked. It seems as if there are not enough chefs or helpers in the kitchen for the size of the restaurant. I hope they can work out the timing and nuances with the food given it has definite potential. A special thanks to Gabriel. He made our evening.

The food here is phenomenal!! There were so many things we wanted to try! Our final selections included coconut shrimp and bacon wrapped jalapeños for starters, then our main entree was the peppered filet. All of these were very delicious!! Our filet took a little long to cook, so they graciously, without our asking, provided the banana bread dessert free of charge. Definitely a place you want to eat when you’re in Puerto Vallarta!! Scrumptious!!

Food was excellent. Tasty and clever in its creation. Prices are ok. Service on the day we attended was awful. Meals forgotten or slow. They offered us feee desert to compensate but in keeping with their service they forgot to bring it. Can’t decide if we would go back. Quality of food will likely win over the Poor service.

Out for dinner before the theatre. Friends recommended this gem. Try some starters and move on they said. We ordered the cream stuffed bacon wrapped jalapenos, cheese loaded seafood and baked Portobello mushrooms and coconut shrimps with an orange marmalade sauce mmmm to share,,lots of food , delicious accompaniments, and honestly delicious food. We followed up with an order of Crab cakes and they were just as delicious as the rest and all in all we were not wanting for anymore but will be back to try other offerings. Oh yea the restaurant is also an artists haven with numerous beautiful paintings all for sale.
If you do not eat here you will be missing a bit of heaven right here in P.V. served a most competent and friendly staff.

Four of went to Qulture last night and it is unanimous, the place is fantastic! We were there for happy hour and with half priced well drinks. The food is varied and caters to many different tastes. Two of us ordered the procutto chicken and two of us ordered the fresh fish of the day. None of us were disappointed. A perfect ending to the dinner was the banana foster and the chocolate bread pudding shared by the table. Include great service and a beautiful atmosphere, this is a special place for friends and family.

We go to Qulture several times per week when we are in town. Best drinks, Excellent martinis! All the food items on the menu are tasty. Also, several of our friends are vegetarian, and they have some great vegetarian selections on the menu as well. Desserts are great too. I can't not mention the staff and management. Gabriel is the owner and is bi-lingual and runs this restaurant with passion. The other staff members are all friendly and professional. The bartenders know their drinks and the happy hour is one of the best in town. It shows and I am happy to offer this review! Don't forget, it's also a very nice art co-op and gallery.

Seven of us went for dinner at Qulture and each loved their meal.
Cocktails of Martini, Margaritas and Ceaseerd were ordered. Martini & Ceasers were very good, the Margarita was good.
The Coconut Shrimp appetizer on slaw was delicious. Starters salads received mush praise around the table.
My wife and I ordered the Seared Ahi Tuna on slaw and Shrimp & Grits. The dishes were presented beautifully but tasted even better. Each item on the plates compliments the other.
The restaurant is beautiful surrounded by art with and open kitchen. The actual bar is one the nicest in PV.
Service was steady and our waiter was very knowledgeable on the menu.
Great new spot for us!

So disappointing... I went for Thanksgiving day. They offered reg and vegan options. I had a mixed group so we had both. The vegan meal was very spicy and came out as a stew which was not advertise as a stew or spicy. I was so hungry but left the entire plate. The bread we asked for never came out my friend mentioned it when we finally got our bill and they gave us the bread with the bill, the drink I ordered came almost 25mins after I ordered it and not very good. The dessert was a frozen type so it taste stale and not fresh. The bill.... we waited for 30 mins to wave a waiter down and ask for our bill. The place was not that full for such poor service. The place has a second floor full of local art and uniquely designed. I won't return missed on service, food and drink! Did even offer a discount t being g that I didn't touch my food. I left hungry had to make another stop to eat. My friend had the regular meal and said it was very good. But agreed the service was terrible and slow. No one should wait 30mins to get a bill. They didn't offer to replace the meal, no discount and no freebie for the inconveniences.

We love this place. We’ve been coming for several years almost every Thursday. The food is excellent, reasonably priced and the waiters are very attentive. It’s not super high end fine dining, but it has a lot of great food choices from Coconut Shrimp, to Thai Bowls, and pork or beef sliders. Delicious!

I've been here several times each time I come here I get the Beet salad 1/2 order, Very good. I also get a different sandwich. Today I tried the Smoked Salmon with cream cheese, onions, cappers on a fresh Chipotle bread. TOTALLY AMAZING. The staff is very friendly, the service is excellent. I Highly recommend this place.

We were three people and waited a very long time for any service. Finally got our drinks after a long wait. Another very long wait for our food. Waiters seemed to have lots of time to stand around and chat with each other and ignore the guests. We ordered dessert and after waiting a very long time, we cancelled the order and paid our cheque and left. We had run out of patience with the staff. The one person who was good with serving was the person filling up our water glasses.
The food we did get was good but the service is horrible. We won't be going back.
