Restaurant Week 2025: A Festival of Flavors That’s Just Getting Started

Puerto Vallarta and Riviera Nayarit are currently immersed in one of the year’s most delightful events: Restaurant Week by Vallarta Lifestyles. The first week of this highly anticipated culinary festival—now celebrating its 21st edition from May 15th to June 10th, 2025—has already passed, but there’s still plenty to explore on the special menus crafted by 51 participating restaurants in the region.
Featuring three-course menus with three options for each course, this initiative, created in 2005, makes it possible to enjoy high-quality gastronomy at truly accessible fixed prices: 495, 575, and 690 pesos per person (drinks and tip not included). It is an excellent opportunity for both residents and visitors who want to try new flavors without breaking their budget.
Restaurant Week not only invites you to discover sophisticated culinary offerings but also provides generous portions that ensure a complete experience, worthy of any signature dinner. Many diners revisit their favorite restaurants or take the opportunity to try several during the festival, and that’s precisely one of the event’s greatest advantages: there is no limit. You can experience this gastronomic journey as many times as you like and at as many restaurants as you wish.
This year, the gastronomic diversity is a true feast for the palate. Participating restaurants offer contemporary Mexican cuisine, author’s creations, creative fusions, seafood specialties, fine cuts, Asian, European, Greek, French, Spanish cuisine, and much more.
