About Restaurant Week

Restaurant Week provides diners in Puerto Vallarta and Riviera Nayarit with the opportunity to enjoy fixed-price, innovative, three-course menus (with three options each) at some of the most prestigious restaurants in Banderas Bay. The event is inspired by other culinary festivals that take place all over the world and its first edition was held in 2005. From then on, it has positioned itself as one of the tourists' and foodies' favorite events.

The 15th edition of Restaurant Week promises to feature the best local restaurants, which will be offering menus divided into three price categories: $289, $399 and $466 MXN per person. Fees don't include drinks nor tips. The list of participating restaurants and menus will be available on the event's website by the beginning of May.
