La Porteña

$$-$$$, Argentine, Nuevo Vallarta


Fodor's Review:

Restaurants are a hard sell in all-inclusive-dominated Nuevo Vallarta. Hopefully this one will break the mold. Every cut of meat is grilled over mesquite, from the steaks to Angus prime rib (both imported from Texas). The adventurous yet tasty chinculinas (tender tripe appetizers) and chorizo turnovers certainly are authentic. Rice, veggies, and other sides must be ordered separately. The setting, an L-shape covered patio with kids' play equipment in the center, is Mexican, but the food is pure Argentine. It opens for lunch only after 2 PM.
