    If you don't stop here your missing out on one of the best burritos I've ever had. The smoked marlin burrito was the best food I ate in Puerto Vallarta.. If you're flying into Puerto you can walk across the bridge to the left pass all the taxi services. Lots of taxis over the bridge. . Great a/c. Inside the tacos de marlin

    Tacon de Marlin simply is an institution of Puerto Vallarta, the smoked marlin and shrimp you just can’t beat the taste or price, you won’t be disappointed! Muchas Gracias!

    If you're going to the airport, you almost have to give yourself extra time to get a shrimp or marlin burrito. Be careful they come out hotter than the sun and you have to wait 10 just to be able to touch it. But the hand 3 sauces that are excellent and one will end up being your favorite. Mine was the citris-spicy-mustard-ish flavored one. You can get it to-go or dine-in.

    This place is sooo good! It is right across the street from the airport and is literally a quick walk over which we did. We go an octopus burrito and then a smoked marlin and shrimp burrito. They were both so good and something we never has before. Cash only so be prepared but everything was so good highly recommend.

    Best smoked Marlin burrito in Vallarta. My GF had a shrimp and octopus burrito which was excellent and well. Great air conditioned atmosphere and services as well. A must try in Vallarta!

    Smoked marlin burrito was super tasty and filling. Highly recommend a bite to eat here while waiting for your bus or when heading back to the airport!

    Amazing find by Yelpers, among others, tucked away at the base of the pedestrian overpass across from PVR Airport, Tacon de Marlin. Serving mostly HUGE smoked marlin burritos. In true Mexican fashion, there is MAYONNAISE on this.🙄 Highly recommended. Take a bus or Uber, parking is non-existent. On the way back, walk up to National Car Rental to call Uber for less confusion around the bus stop.

    Stumbled upon this gem after arriving at PV airport- food was incredible and reasonably priced the marlin burrito is a must try! Easily shareable. Comes with a little starter salad and marinated vegetables. Staff were super friendly and attentive. Will definitely be back on my way out of PV.

    Cash only. Across the pedestrian skywalk from the airport. Wanted to try the Crab but they were out :( Ended up getting just the Marlin and Shrimp and a taco to try. Good thing we did since the servings were huge. Pretty much fed our family of 4. Doesn't seem like there's a lot of parking nearby. Has some seating outside, and inside seating has AC.

    After smelling this place twice, I couldn't miss an opportunity to try it! I had the marlin & el pastor tacos along with a mixed burrito. The tacos were OUTSTANDING!!! The Burrito was different but delicious! Not to mention the sauces!!! Each was flavorful & packed its own level of punch! The staff was extremely friendly & the atmosphere was quaint. The food was affordable, worth every peso & some.

    This has been my go to spot when I either arrive or depart from PV airport. Conveniently located next to the airport and where Ubers can pick you up. The food is amazing! Fish tacos and shrimp burritos are my favorite. A great value for the amount of food and taste. The sauces provided are delicious and service is top notch!

    Just come for the burritos, fish taco and a big beer!!! Come with enough time cause it might be full and/or as their freshly made, they are not a fast food. They’re salsas are just great and it’s a most stop before you leave at the airport.

  • 5/5 Gustavo Benítez G. 3 months ago on Google New
    Just across the peatonal bridge next to the airport. You need to come this way to take an Uber, so I recommend trying this seafood burrito! It is a “Must eat” if you are in Puerto Vallarta.

  • 5/5 Chris R. 3 months ago on Google New
    You must stop here when flying in or out of PVR Airport. All orders come with veggie salad. Try the smoked marlin burrito.

  • 5/5 Frank 9 months ago on Google
    The smoked marlin burrito is the best burrito I’ve ever had (and I’m from California). The service is excellent. The server even went to the store next door for us and brought us a bottle of tequila and beer! We stop here every time we’re in PV and will continue to do so. See you guys in July!

    Cash only. Great food. Good prices. When it’s hot, they have a big section that’s air conditioned. The Marlon and shrimp were great.

  • 2/5 Gregory M. 4 months ago on Google
    I arrived here after walking from the airport terminal on a very hot Saturday afternoon. This was my first time in Puerto Vallarta. As I started to enter the interior airconditioned room — which had a few customers inside — they rudely informed me that it was closed. I never figured out why. I was told that I could order takeout but I declined and ate after I got my hotel. I am still puzzled what I did wrong.

  • 5/5 Deb T. 5 months ago on Google
    The BEST ever!!! I always get the combo ...smoked marlin, shrimp and octopus!! So fresh and delicious. 😁😄. And the cucumber and jicama salad that they give you as an appetizer is very good too. Perfect place to grab a (large!) bite before or after flying...or anytime!!🥰

  • 5/5 James K. 11 months ago on Google
    Great place to hit up when you arrive in Puerto Vallarta. Had the amazing combination burrito with smoked marlin, pulpo and shrimp. Came with tasty vegetable salad and also ordered an ice cold Pacifico. Delicious food and excellent service.

  • 5/5 Celine C. 1 year ago on Google
    Ordered the fish tacos. Great service and amazing food!

  • 5/5 Rich D. 1 year ago on Google
    Best shrimp taco I have ever had. Very large portion! Small Cucumber, carrot and ? Salad was good as well. The cervesa was cold! Service was as to be expected! Atmosphere was small Mexican restaurant with limited seating! Directly across the street from the airport arrival exit door. Will definitely go back every time I come to PV!

  • 5/5 Bruce R. 1 year ago on Google
    Awesome burrito thing just stuffed with shrimp (me) and smoked marlin (wife). Go hungry and don't plan on eating again for many, many hours. Wise people would split one. Two burrito things and two cold beers was about 20 bucks.

  • 5/5 Darin S. 1 year ago on Google
    Always my first stop after exiting the airport. Consistent, tasty seafood burritos, a hidden gem in plain sight.

  • 5/5 Perla G. 1 year ago on Google
    The best marlin burritos. Very good customer service as well, and the prices are very decent. When I go to the airport,, I always make sure I have enough time to go get food there.

  • 5/5 Beth W. 1 year ago on Google
    Phenomenal crab burrito and superb service! Was enough for two meals. Have a meal here, you will be happy you did! Delicious. My favorite meal in PV! 🤤

  • 5/5 Richard H. 1 year ago on Google
    Delicious burritos. I tried the marlin burrito with their two sauces it was great you get full from just one. They were super quick with the order which is another plus very good establishment

  • 5/5 Sorrel J. 2 years ago on Google
    Stepping out of the airport in Puerto Vallarta we crossed the street & the delicious aroma is what attracted us. I had the Marlin Pastor tacos - muy deliciosio!

  • 5/5 まみりーん改善 2 years ago on Google
    Truly the best shrimp burrito in the country!!!!! I wish I could eat this every week in Cancun. Please open the shop one in Cancun.

  • 5/5 Jonathan C. 2 years ago on Google
    Great food while waiting for your Uber/ taxi ride. Tasted fresh as if they caught the shrimp and crab in the morning (we got one of each even though we could’ve shared 😁)
