    I missed the opportunity to try this place at the airport location . I happen to come across this location riding the bus down south. All the reviews highly recommended the smoke Marlin burrito. I opted for the combo(Marlin and shrimp). This thing was stuffed with both. It came with two sides of vegetables: cucumbers , onions and jalapeño’s (one in Mayo and the other in pickles). You have four different sauces to chose from, mild to hot. First bite was super hot(temp), so I let it cool down. After , I added the vegetable and sauce. The Marlin was smoky and tasted like chopped up pastrami . The shrimp gave it a bouncy texture that cuts into the meatiness of the Marlin. It’s was good and filling, but wasn’t mind blowing. Definitely worth a try. Major props to the friendly, English speaking staff. Mid Sept 2021 Shrimp burrito . This was by far the best of the bunch . Fresh shrimp sauté to order. The burrito pan seared on the outside . Inside filled with lettuce , tomatoes and cheese. Packed full of goodness. Tacon De Marlin does not disappoint. Must try.

    Seafood burrito was top notch here. Excellent flavors with high quality ingredients. Tried the signature smoked marlin which was pretty nice. Liked the fried shrimp even better. Service was friendly.

    One of my favorite places to eat in PV. I always get their Shrimp and Marlin smoked burrito. All of their dressings/sauces are delicious, but def their green one is my favorite. Their service is fairly quickly and customer service is great. TIP: if you go with somebody else, try to order just one for the both of you as they are pretty filling. Muchas gracias!

    My family who doesn’t even like fish voted this their favorite meal in puerto Vallarta. Be brave and get the pulpo, it’s cooked to tender perfection. Nothing else compares.

    Great way to start a vacation in Puerto Vallarta. Go straight from the airport with your suitcase over the bridge to this wonderful little burrito spot. Wonderful smoked marlin burrito so large we always share.

    Come here for the marlin burrito! Juicy bits of pastor fish inside a soft tortilla, paired with a variety of hot sauces. Very filling and can even be shared if you are not too hungry. I also tried the shrimp burrito but have to say the marlin won hands down. The restaurant is small and can get busy, but there’s AC and service is fairly fast.

    So so good. I had the Octupus and shrimp burrito and hubby had the shrimp burrito. It was so good. It was a decent portion. They gave us some salad and vegetables. I didn’t eat it because I needed to make room for my food. Hubby said it tasted good. Unfortunately, we would have loved to visit the restuarant again before we left but couldn’t make it happen. Good food!

    Lunchtime was very busy. near a bus stop so very popular place to eat. Slight communication error and received incorrect meat but it was corrected. If I ordered there again would order without lettuce, it madw the burritio soggy. Large portions for price.

    Amazingly delicious! This is so far the best burrito we’ve eaten. You have seafood protein options to choose from or mix few at ones, which we did and it was sooo good! It comes with selection of homemade sauces and small sides. They also offer delicious flavored water drinks - cucumber basil was my favorite. Super casual place, friendly staff, affordable prices. I highly recommend this diner!

    A delightful place to enjoy a seafood burrito. The marlin burrito alone was hefty enough for two meals… I took the second half home. On top of that, they provide some complimentary small sides. The service was quite personable, as well. Nothing was mind-blowing, but everything was enjoyable. Add to that a lovely view of the lively street through the large windows, and you have the perfect lunch.

    A good taqueria in a nice neighborhood. They were friendly, fast, affordable and very tasty. I ate some vegetarian burritos. They came with a Jalapeno salad and there were lots of sauces on the table to spice them up.

    I came here all the way from the other end of Puerto Vallarta and it was definitely worth it! The Marlin and Shrip burrito was fantastic and it was so big that you could easily share or take half home. The prices are also great and the service was very friendly and fast.

    If you’re looking for a good burrito, you’ve found the right place. I ended up going here randomly because another spot was closed and it turned out to be a massive blessing in disguise. I had a octopus + marlin burrito and it was incredible. I’ll definitely be back!

    ¡Excelente! So tasty smoked marlin! A little like a good smoked salmon. In the burrito it is great!

  • 1/5 Kevin C. 8 months ago on Google
    Been here 25 times this year. I know closing is 5:30. I got there 4:55. It's almost full and I take a seat. I wait for 5 and the cook starts having a hissy fit. Then a waiter comes over and says he cant serve me at all says they were closing. Dont expect expect good service at the end of the day.

    Mixto burrito with marlin, crab, and octopus was delicious. It was mostly marlin though. This place would’ve earned five stars easily but there was two pieces of rock (?) and a piece of thin hair inside my food so I hope they focus on employees’ personal hygiene and making sure no foreign stuff is inside the food when preparing. The side dishes were nice and refreshing.

    No words can describe the flavors. Hands down, my new fav spot. It's a little hike up to the end of the Malecon from the Romantic Zone, but well worth it. Tiny, maybe 8 tables, always busy. 6 items on the menu. Tasty flavored waters. Just go. There's a second location right across the from the airport.

    Very tasty burrito. We had the smoked marlin, shrimp, and octopus mix. Great service. Fast and friendly.

  • 5/5 Dave P. 6 years ago on Google
    Limited menu and everything is delicious. Perfect combo. Shrimp was cooked perfectly. I had the shrimp/robalo tacón. No matter where you are staying in the city, this is a great place to stop for lunch. Not supper! Lunch! These guys close early.

    Wanted to get a quick cheap burrito on our first day. Came here and ate the tasty burritos. I love trying new things and the burritos were not like anything in America. Go there and try!
