La tapatía cantaritos y carnes en su jugo - 48325 Puerto Vallarta

La Tapatía es un restaurante bar cuya mayor virtud es su chef, un cocinero dedicado y creativo en sus platillos, quien contrasta sabores de tal manera que llenan el paladar de los comensales en una montaña rusa de texturas en las que se pueden degustar desde las más delicadas notas, hasta los productos de mayor carácter. El chef, Leonardo Herrera Vega, tiene ese auténtico interés por satisfacer a su comensal, de sorprenderlo cuidando todos los detalles, sus creaciones son de buen nivel por ese toque extra que le pone a cada platillo para darle su personalidad, los Tacos Baja de Camarón, la Tostada de Atún y Coctail de Camarón y Pulpo son buenas opciones, pero como platillos excelentes se pueden mencionar el Pulpo a la Tapatía y los Tacos Dorados de Marlin y Aguachile, el pulpo en su punto perfecto en el que conserva el sabor y textura, y los tacos son un encuentro de sabores que estallan en el paladar. Vale la pena probar la cocina de este chef cuya agradable propuesta se queda en el paladar. Los precios son bastante accesibles en cuanto al menú de comida, en lo referente a las bebidas, ahí la cosa cambia, pues están a la par de un bar en la franja turística, pero hay para todos los gustos, la coctelería y los cantaritos son las bebidas de la casa. Yo recomendaría pedir varios platillos a manera de degustación, se puede acudir con la familia (pero sin niños porque no hay nada para ellos, ni mantelitos ni área en especial) a la hora de la comida para disfrutar los alimentos sin inconvenientes, ya más tarde el ambiente cambia un poco más como cantina y es más adecuado para adultos que desean momentos de esparcimiento con bebidas espirituosas. El restaurante es un lugar pintoresco, saturado de colores y adornos que rayan en el mal gusto en un sobrado e innecesario esfuerzo por reflejar un ambiente mexicano que cae en un cliché caricaturizado ya muy visto en los restaurantes que quieren atraer público extranjero perdiendo así una identidad propia que pudiera distinguirlo de los demás. Por otra parte, no cuenta con estacionamiento ni rampas para discapacitados, los baños están limpios y en orden. No se respeta la sana distancia entre las mesas como lo ordena la Secretaría de Salud y el servicio es algo lento. Está ubicada en una zona popular alejada de la franja turística, por lo que es necesario llegar en taxi o vehículo de plataforma digital, y lo mismo para la hora de retirarse pues por lo escondido del lugar es mejor ir acompañado.

El lugar es lo más mexicano que puedan encontrar aquí en Puerto Vallarta, me sentí como un Guadalajara y sus tradicionales restaurantes, los cantaritos muy ricos y a un super precio, la comida exquisita y lo que más me gustó es que los domingos cuentan con mariachi

Excelente servicio. Muy rico, gran porción, buenos complementos e inmejorable presentación. Sin duda alguna vale la pena a descubrir este lugar. Los domingos por la tarde tienen mariachi en vivo.

Excellent carne en su jugo, corn & refried beans with freshly made chips. Refreshing cantaritos made with fresh grapefruit juice. Will be going back.

Amazing spot! Fresh squeezed orange juice and great coffee. We got pancakes that came with frosting and honey and huevos rancheros that came with toppings. Overall amazing food and atmosphere!

Ive been here 4 times this weeks already! Great food great prices!

My boyfriend, sister and I learned about this restaurant by recommendation while we were out at another restaurant the day before. As with any new restaurant, we weren't sure what to expect but we were up for an adventure. We just went to have dinner and try the Mexican cuisine on offer (my boyfriend is a Mexican chef so he likes to try different Mexican restaurants) and we ended up staying for almost four hours. The food, the drinks - everything was outstanding. We had the queso fundido, guacamole, cueritos, jugo de carne, and frijoles fritos. I highly recommend the jugo en carne. I had never had it before and it was amazing. The drinks were well-made and they have a full bar available, though I HIGHLY recommend what they specialize in - their cantaritos! They go from individual sizes all the way up to 25 liters!! I also tried licor de pulque for the first time and I really liked it, though I understand that some people either like it or hate it. We were not there when they had live music but they still played music over the speakers and the owners even showed us some of their dance moves. They even sung us a song! It was a lot of fun and we stayed much later than we had anticipated. The service was superb and the owners truly cared about our experience and went above-and-beyond to ensure that it was a memorable one. The restaurant is very tastefully decorated and the owner herself did it all. It's a very colorful, fun place to be - you can't miss it from the street. My boyfriend (the chef) was very happy and impressed with the quality of the food they had on offer, and even though we ordered a LOT, there was nothing left to take home by the end of the night. Overall, I highly recommend this place. It is off the beaten path, away from the tourist centers of the city, but a short Uber ride nonetheless and well worth the trip. I can guarantee that the next time we are in Puerto Vallarta we will definitely be back to visit. Give it a try if you are in PV - you won't be disappointed.

Was looking for places that served carne en su jugo, a dish most popular in Guadalajara. This place is one of the few that came up in a Google search of Puerto Vallarta. Place is in a neighborhood not far off the beaten path and worth the trip. It's has a festive décor and is very clean. We went for lunch around noon on Sunday. Were told they have mariachis at 4pm on Sundays. We had the carne en su jugo, choriqueso, a cantarito to drink, and pancakes for our daughter. Before the food came they brought out a small dish of refried beans with corn and topped with cheese. This is a signature appetizer at some restaurants in Guadalajara and one of my favorites. We also got an order to go of jericalla, a dessert very similar to flan. All of the food was excellent and the portions were generous! Staff was very nice and service was good. I've added this place to my list of favorites and plan to bring family there on a Sunday when they have the live Mariachis. Do yourself a favor and check this place out!
