Frommer's Review

Breakfast here is one of Vallarta's best values. I would pass on this longstanding favorite, however, for dinner. Elegant decor, great recorded jazz music, and an open-air setting on the island in the midst of the Río Cuale creating a singular experience -- at once local and sophisticated. The specialty is crepes, which come in a variety of flavors for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. The lunch and dinner menu also features a selection of Mexican cuisine, including duck in Oaxacan black mole and rock Cornish hen stuffed with herbed rice, dried tropical fruits, and nuts, finished in mango cilantro sauce. The vegetarian offerings are more creative than most. An extensive wine list and ample selection of specialty coffees complement the menu.

About Our System

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.

Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.

The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
