• Asian • Puerto Vallarta

Booked 3 times today

We’re a casual and cozy restaurant serving up Asian small plates—from fun improvisations on that theme to faithful renditions of classic dishes that we love. We love the name “bonito” because it’s both the Spanish word for “beautiful” and the name of one of the most important fish in Japanese cuisine. Thus, it’s the perfect name for a restaurant that seeks to explore the shared traits in the cuisines of Vallarta and Vietnam, delving into our mutual love for funk, citrusy brightness, and carefully calibrated spice. This location is in Zona Romántica right next to the beautiful 200-year-old Banyan Tree. Comfortable air-conditioned dining room and a gorgeous outdoor garden provide the perfect setting for all occasions. Our most popular items are ramen, pho, pork belly bao, soft-shell crab bao, coconut shrimp rolls, summer rolls, green papaya salad, potstickers, lobster dumplings, pork belly dumplings, teriyaki salmon, Korean BBQ beef, and green curry.

Can’t say enough about our experience. The food was amazing, and the service just as equal. We did the 7 course menu and our server added on an item we really wanted to try from the 10 course as well. It was my friends birthday and what a lovely and unique way to celebrate! Only downside…we went on a quiet night so not very lively but didn’t take away from our experience. Will visit again! Gracias chef Marco, Lorena and Karla! (I hope I got their names correct!)

We had a very enjoyable experience. Our waiter, Nico, was very attentive, polite, and explained the menu well. The menu had some poor translations, but we were able to figure it out. The food was excellent, the stuffed figs appetizer was amazing and the Oso Buco and Cordon Bleu Involtini were both top-notch. The Menu has many other choices we’re interested in so we will be back to explore it more.
