About Bonito Kitchen & Bar, Zona Romántica
BONITO KITCHEn - Asian plates & craft cocktails
We’re a casual and cozy restaurant serving up Asian small plates—from fun improvisations on that theme to faithful renditions of classic dishes that we love. We love the name “bonito” because it’s both the Spanish word for “beautiful” and the name of one of the most important fish in Japanese cuisine. Thus, it’s the perfect name for a restaurant that seeks to explore the shared traits in the cuisines of Vallarta and Vietnam, delving into our mutual love for funk, citrusy brightness, and carefully calibrated spice.
Somos un restaurante cálido y casual que ofrece pequeños platillos asiáticos, desde divertidas versiones improvisadas hasta fieles platillos de cocina tradicional de los que estamos enamorados. El nombre -bonito- nos encantó por dos razones, la primera, su significado en el español y la segunda porque es el nombre de uno de los peces más importantes utilizado en la cocina japonesa, esto lo hace el nombre perfecto para un restaurante que busca explorar y mezclar los rasgos que comparten la gastronomía vallartense y vietnamita, profundizando en el mutuo amor por los sabores alegres, cítricos y picantes.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Such a cute restaurant! Really tasty food and outstanding and beautiful cocktails. I am half Chinese and from Hawaii, and thought this food was really good and flavorful. The only dish we did not care for and would not recommend is the ahi seared tuna. The consistency did not taste fresh. However, take this with a grain of salt - because I’m from Hawaii, my expectations for raw fish (especially tuna) are extremely high.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ So I pass this place all the time but don't usually eat other foods besides Mexican when here. But I saw they had baos and I wanted to try.
OMG It was so delicious and flavorful!! One of the best meals I've had here in PV. The drink was a delicious change too.
They take credit card and all the staff was wonderful. The woman who is the sister of the owner walks around and checks in with each table. Really loved it and sitting outside was nice by the little stream.
I should've went sooner! ?

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ *UPDATE* - I’m so glad Bonito Kitchen is back after the original location was washed away 6 months ago during Hurricane Nora. The new locations is in the more local artsy neighbourhood right next to the historical tree. It’s only a short walk from Basilio Badillo. Beautiful open courtyard with live jazz every Thursday. The menu has evolved, more Asian fusion and ramen is a daily feature on the menu. The wonton ramen is super loaded and delicious.
*Original review*
Great addition to the Asian restaurant scene to zona romantica. I've only tried the small plates, and they were all delicious, great authentic flavours and decent portions. Great ambience by the river and a real cosmopolitan cocktail list like negroni and espresso martini. Will definitely return to try the different entrées and their soup noodles. Just didn't have enough stomach space ?

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Exterior dining in a picturesque setting with live plants & artwork. The ribeye dish was excellent. Service was horrible. Took 20 minutes to bring water, The watery drinks took 40 minutes and it took 1h 20m to bring the first appetizer. Waiter brought dishes we did not order but we consumed it as we were hungry and frustrated. The owner apologized that she lost 5 chefs but the kitchen was so small that it could not accommodate more than 1. It was too small to cater to about 40 diners that were seated. The dinner for 5 took more than 2 hours to be served. The owner gave 15% discount. The 2 month old restaurant needs to be upgraded for it to survive.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Same great food as the northern location with some slight menu variations, superior ambiance with a lovely outdoors. The other location was half an hour away and was one of my favorites. This one is in my back yard and is even better! Definitely one of my favorite restaurants in Puerto Vallarta. (Note they had a southern location before but it was shuttered by storm damage and this is a new location in Zona Romántica)

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ This place is a disaster. Drinks took 43 min. Food took over an 1hr. There was more than 15 min between dishes. 2nd round of drinks took over an hour. Waiters are totally confused. O idea what’s on the menu. We got other peoples food. Didn’t get our food. Never have I experienced such craziness.
Basically the kitchen is too small for the number of tables…
