Otto's restaurant — Restaurant in Jalisco

I just had a most wonderful experience at Otto’s for dinner. It’s a new place that opened up near my condo, and I thought I would try it last night. There weren’t many reviews, not many pictures, and no menu, but I had walked by and seen a lot of locals eating there so I thought I would try it. It was amazing! The attentiveness of Miguel, the server, and being able to meet the chef, Jose Manuel, was quite a treat. I had the red snapper fried with butter and garlic. It was one of the best red snappers I have had in Puerto Vallarta and I eat that a lot. it was crisp on the outside, moist on the inside with a delicious flavor. You can sit upstairs and get a bit of a view of the Malecon in the wonderful, small open air setting. I highly recommend it! I will be back to try more of the items on their new menu, which is coming out soon.

Eating lunch at Otto’s was a highlight of my family’s time in PV during a cruise port day. We loved trying a variety of the seafood dishes especially the “Three Amigos” big platter with lobster, octopus, and shrimp (and also mussels, I guess there are four amigos lol). Service was great even though there were some language difficulties as my family are not Spanish speakers and some of us do not speak English as a first language either. However we received all the attention and service we needed, and it was an extra fun bonus to meet Otto himself as well. Definitely recommend if you want a more ‘authentic’ restaurant experience that is still very accessible from the Malecón. Gracias Otto and your staff for the...

Cute little spot with a 2nd floor covered rooftop patio just around the corner from the Malecon. Friendly service, decent beers and gucamole, mediocre salsa (it’s a pico de gallo, not roasted peppers or anything), GREAT aguachile, dry fish tacos with no salsa or sauce or anything (but good fish), and seafood Molcajete that’s flavorful but with zero sides other than tortillas (like rice or avocado) and the tiniest 2 little halves of a blue crab that barely made a spoonful of mushy crab meat (whatever photo that other guy posted earlier, this...
