“ I was craving rich authentic Mexican flavor, and this place delivered! The massive “tacon”, was delivered sizzling hot in a crisp golden-brown flour tortilla. I went with the three meat option with smoky marlin, juicy shrimp, and tender octopus. The side salad and chile de arbol sauce were the perfect combination to enhance the overall experience. ”
“ A friend suggested we go to Tacon de Marlin for a Marlin burrito and we were glad we did. The friend warned us about how big the burrito was going to be so we shared one which was just the right amount of food. It came with a side of veggie salad and some spicy pickles. It was all great - give it a try. ”
“ Amaizing service and food. Just in a blink we had salad served while another person was taking our order. We ordered the tacon with shrimp & marlin : ohh woow even their salsa was so good! I tried the cucumber-lemon-spearmint water... taste more like cucumber but is refreshing. ”
“ Our family had been here last year and recommended this restaurant as a place we needed to go. We also saw it featured on a Mark Weins You tube video ( it was the airport location) . It is such a lovely place with very cute tablecloths. The staff were super friendly. We ordered a Marlin burrito to share and they even brought it out in 2 separate plates which we were not expecting. They do not serve beer but suggested we buy beer next door and bring it back. The whole experience was great and the burrito was excellent. Would definitely recommend this restaurant. We went at 12 noon and it was getting full so I would suggest going early. It also came with pickles and a side salad. Such great value. Lunch for 2 for 155 pesos. How can you beat that?? ”
“ Stopped by for lunch, got the mixed burrito and it was delicious. Lots of marlin, shrimp and octopus. The side salads were great too. Attentive staff. All around a great experience! Thank you! ”
“ Hands down my best meal in Puerto Vallarta. I’ve never had a seafood burrito before and this place introduced me to the delicious delicacy of marlin. Highly recommend ordering a burrito to go and enjoy it at the Camarones beach nearby! ”
“ This place was amazing! Very straight forward menu with either a shrimp or Marlin burrito. I got the combination Marlin and Shrimp. The burrito was steaming hot with fish, shrimp, and lettuce. They had a nice variety of hot sauces: Green, Red, Chipotle mayo, and a white tarter sauce. your burrito also includes a couple of small cucumber side salads, which were also very tasty. Enjoy!! ”
