Went here last night with a friend who always wants to go here. Even she had nothing good to say about the food. Saving grace is being able to sit on the beach if available to watch the sunset.

Just another bar/ restaurant on the beach?
No sir!
It looks that way but it sure tastes different. Boy was I amazed by this kitchen. Any more fresh and it would be alive, balanced to perfection, simple but rich tastefull food. Delicious pulpo and very easy going service. The menu big enough to eat here every day for two weeks...

I'm a frequent Vallarta visitor but only recently discovered El Barracuda. Fresh seafood (good selection) at reasonable prices, friendly staff, great margaritas,and all with a beach and ocean view.

had been to the bar next door and had ceviche served from Barracuda, though had never been to this restaurant. The ceviche was excellent-first time ever having it!

This is a super casual place on the beach that serves fresh seafood. The margaritas are strong! Loved all the spicy salsas they had.
This restaurant was discovered by my friend PV Ronnie. My wife & I have visited here at least 4 times. Everytime we get a table overlooking the beach and the fish is always consistly good.

great seafood tacos and nice atmosphere, good selection and staff. Right on the beach and easy to find next to hotel Buenaventura
First off, you will not find this item on the menu. I've had it here twice and it was awesome both times. I did go with friends that live in PV, so that is how we found this place and I found out about the Molcajete de Marisco. The dinamite is also a great appetizer. My wife had the coconut...

I love this place. The food is always good - my husband and I often share the coconut shrimp and leave full! The service is awesome - I love the wait staff. Sometimes we've been lucky and watched whales right in front of us! Good people watching since it's right on the beach.
