Cafe des Artistes

Guadalupe Sanchez 740, Puerto Vallarta, Mexico
Tel: +52 322 22 232 28 Web: Visit this site »
 

This renowned cafe claims to be "one of the best restaurants in the world" and has the reviews to support that notion. Chef Thierry Blouet was recently named a Maitre Cuisenaire de France. The menu changes seasonally; a recent offering included grilled lamb chops cooked with local spices and balsamic vinegar, served with a garlic creme brulee. The desserts are also extraordinary. The self-described dress code is "dressy to casual," but you may wish to dress up a bit. Located across the street from the Galerie des Artistes.

“Reputed by many as Vallarta's top spot with 5* Diamond winner owner/chef Thierry Blouet presenting Mexican and French cuisine since 1990. World renowned, formal, very expensive with attentive but unobtrusive service may be worth it for you. Many exquisite choices as salmon wasabi 190p, sea bass fine herbs 240p, grilled garlic tuna 195p, half roasted ginger duck 265p, filet mignon with red wine onion stew 265p, baked osso bucco with grilled lamb chop and marscarpone polenta and garlic 299p, pumpkin shrimp bisque 95p, tuna sashimi salad 115p, escargot and pumpkin ravioli 115p, artichoke and potato aioli terrine 110p, pumpkin prawn soup 95p, fine desserts as apple and pear pecan strudel with caramel ice cream 81p, tropical baba au rhum 85p and chocolate crA"me brulAe 85p. Three course bistro menu 350p or with wine 385p, reported to be wonderful. Dine inside [A/C], in a 50+ year old garden or newer area on hillside with view. New Cocina de autor dining room built in levels, backed by a flowing waterfall with a ficus tree centerpiece, [closed Sunday and September, manager Polo] with signature 3-5 course menus 590-750p. Number one for many worldwide travelers. City's landmark with world famous reputation. Splendid list of 400 wines by the glass 65-90p and bottle 200-4500p. Live music many times 8-11pm, as piano and flute. At entrance, relaxed but elegant Costantini Bar Lounge with nightly entertainment. Reservations advised/required. Valet parking. A top choice on many lists. Ask about the chef's cooking classes with kitchen view.”
