El Vallartas Sabor Costeño

Food here is always fresh and very tasty. Great atmosphere very authentic experience. Highly recommend trying anything on the menu with seafood.

The entrance is on 10th street. Hopefully google maps gets that fixed. The food was amazing and authentic. Everything felt authentic. This place used to be a bar, but it's better as a restaurant. we were the only people sat outside but we were checked on constantly. The drinks were great and everything felt worth it's price. I can't wait to come back!

I gave this place 2 separate tries. Sadly it wasn't great either time.

- Queso: was not good. Tasted like generic off-brand cheese cut with sour cream. It was pretty nasty tbh.

- Service: Was slowwwww I almost got up to get my own drink refill. Only seen the waitress To get food order and for check.

- Food: Steak tacos weren't bad however they didn't have salsa Verde that most places around here carry.

I think overall the queso and service threw our experience off both times.

We were quickly shown to a table and offered their flavored waters (we didn't try this time, but intend to next time). The complementary salsa is very good, a little spicier than most places. We love spicy.

There is a huge variety on the menu. I got one of my usual favorites - chili colorado. It was a little milder than I like, but the El Yucateco (or half dozen options available on the table) made it perfect. The tamale I added was good, it was served with ground meat red sauce and cheese toppings. My fiance got the el vellartas special. He said it was pretty good.

The atmosphere was comfortable, not freezing nor stuffy. The booth seats were average comfort with the table not crowding us in our seats. The staff were all friendly and quick to offer refills.
