This place was amazing! The food was incredible, they were so accommodating for the vegetarians with us and the service was beyond great. The house cocktails were perfectly balanced, the wine selection offered tons of regional Mexican wines and some imports, and I cannot describe how wonderful and thoughtful the dishes were. Best dining experience I’ve had in years! Highly recommended!!

As always, the food and service were excellent. The frog legs were the best, and the carrot cake was so good.

Asador La Vaca Argentina is always an amazing experience. The food is amazing with great quality of beef. The appetizer Chicharron de Vaciao is fantastic and honestly we have never had anything that was not top notch. If you are unsure as to what to get you can not go wrong with the Milenesa Napolitano. The portions are huge and the quality of everything is very high, the house Malbec is very good as well. If you are looking for a great dining experience in Nuevo Vallarta then you should 100% try Asador La Vaca Argentina. This is our second time there and we will be back every time we come to Nuevo Vallarta

About the restaurant

More than a restaurant, Nicksan is a culinary experience of the highest level. In its open kitchen, the ingredients of two ancestral cultures located on opposite sides of the world are fused.

Its owners Masayuki Niikura and Ángel Carbajal, originally from Japan and Mexico respectively, opened the first Nicksan restaurant in Los Cabos in 1994, creating amazing congruencies between the flavors of both countries.

Some of the signature dishes that you can taste at our fabulous Residences Plaza location in Nuevo Vallarta are the spicy tuna cake, the salmon skin cone, the Shiromi Coriander and Maguro Lemon sushi rolls, the cucumber salad with wakame seaweed and crab, the gorgonzola shrimp and the serranito beef fillet.

Within our new cocktail and sake menu you will find unique creations, perfect to match your lunch, dinner or just to toast with friends in an environment full of elegance and flavor. Come and try the best of two worlds!

Who doesn’t love a delicious custom made burger? At Vidanta they kick it up a notch with very efficient and polite staff and an upscale atmosphere. The indoor / outdoor dining is great. And you walk home along an expansive beach.
