Cafe des Artistes is simply magical. Chef Thierry Blouet accommodated our party's various dietary restrictions, and the servers made the occasion special for the milestone birthday we celebrated in honor of one in our party. The atmosphere, both indoors and outdoors (where there is a lovely garden) is exquisite, and the plating is quite artistic. The food was top-notch, with an amazing combination of tastes to tickle one's palate!

This was our 2nd dinner here and we were equally impressed this time as the last time. We have decided to dine here every time we are in Puerto Vallarta and get the Tasting Menu with the wine pairing because we have been highly impressed each time with that option. Moreover, the live harpist and pianist were incredible additions to our night. Cannot recommend enough!

What a lovely evening! Every member of the staff seemed genuinely happy that we were there. The garden is closed until November, but the indoor dining room was beautiful. The menu had a nice range of foods so everyone from basic eaters to committed foodies would be happy. We got a bottle of sancerre and shared the tuna tartare with was very fresh. We ordered a couple of apps but the star of the show was the sea bass entree. In every dish the ingredients were perfection, the presentation was a treat for the eye but the truly impressive part was the skillful balance of flavors. Each time we come to PV we will come here.

No hay pierde. Cafe des Artistes es el mejor restaurante de Puerto Vallarta. Excelente comida, precios razonables (lugares como la Madalena o el Sonora Prime se volvieron locos y nada que ver), servicio de primera, experiencia redonda. Fui con mi familia a cumplir con nuestro ritual favorito: finalizar nuestro viaje a Vallarta con una cena en Cafe des Artistes. Salimos felices. TODOS los platos que pedimos, excepcionales. Y el servicio de Efraín, Chema y el Sommelier Javier es más que servicio, un genuino interés por hacer al comensal sentirse en casa, bienvenido. Todo esto completado con un dueto de violín y piano que dan fondo a la cena... es una experiencia completa. Si están buscando un lugar donde sin duda recibirán gran calidad y atención por su dinero, para una experiencia sobresaliente, aquí es!

Best meal of my life, hands down. The tuna tartare on the salt block is incredible and the short rib and beef filet is to die for. Life changing. The flower pot for dessert is jaw dropping and delicious. The tear drop art installation contributed to the ambiance, along with the live piano. I cannot say enough good things about this place, and all at what I consider a very fair price.

I would give more stars if ai could. Amazing place, the staff is very well trained to make you feel welcomed. The food was just unbelievable plus the drinks. Now, I have to give 100 stars to the violinist, he goes to every single table and whatever the gusts asks for, he knows how to play, professional, friendly, interacting with everyone. I just can’t thank enough for our hostess and waiter, great job there!,

The cheese tray had more bread than cheese! It was really 2 small domino’s size pieces of one type of cheese and other 2 creamy and crumbled nos so tasty cheeses. Very small for the price. The pumpkin soup was cold and really bland. Finally the short rib was so small… I enjoy small gourmet food and often seek Michelin type restaurants, but I left disappointed this time😞

Phenomenal food. Great service. Extensive wine list. However there is no sound baffling. It can be very hard to have a conversation when a musician is playing anywhere in the main room. Very impressive musical skills but overpowering. I recommend a later dinner reservation after the music has stopped.

Flawlessly executed five-course entertainment with occasionally local wine in the paring line-up. More elegant bottles were available, but we were pleased with their choices with each new dish.
