We live in California, now celebrating our 18 years of marriage in Mexico. Everything is so colorful, the streets, its people, the drinks, the music, the restaurants, the beach. After spending a few days in Puerto Vallarta, we went to Sayulita. Every day we went to the beach and on the way back we had lunch in different places. The white and red tables caught my attention and we decided to try this restaurant. The only drawback is that I prefer not to eat on the street, when I mention it to the waiter he offers me a table on the first floor. Much better: They have a large terrace with many tables overlooking the street. We started with Guacamole mexican style, cheese, tomato, cream and red sauce and drinking jamaica water and passion fruit.

We felt incredibly uncomfortable like WE WERE NEVER WELCOMED THERE IN THE FIRST PLACE. We are Mexican and this was definitely not a...
Read moreI hate to give a negative review for a place that I have visited only once, however, this is a place to AVOID at all costs.
Easily, the least enjoyable meal we had in Sayulita, and ironically the most expensive at $51 including tip for the two of us.
We started off with just OK margaritas (2 for MacReeves and just one for me). Azteca soup appetizer which tasted oddly acidic like spoiled dairy.
We were disappointed with our chile relleno platters, supposedly the house specialty. I struggled to find any shrimp in my shrimp rellenos but after digging around I managed to find pieces of dry, hard, chopped small shrimp that appeared to be leftovers from some other dish.
We sat on the balcony where we were able to view the fire dancer street performer which may have been the only pleasant part of...
